MSN: Expand news articles

[WebworkrNet]

News: "Expand article" button is not always displayed.

Description

News articles are only touched on with a teaser. To read the full article, click on the "Expand article" button. This button is not always visible. It is suspected that Canvas is responsible for this. However, several tests on my part have not yet been able to clearly verify this.

Expected Behaviour

The "Expand article" button should always be displayed.

Current Behaviour

The "Expand article" button is often not displayed.

Note: Do not confuse this with the blue "Read more in the app" button.

Possible Solution

No proposed solution at present

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

1. ~~create a fresh Firefox profile~~
2. Use Fenix (Firefox for Android) in standard or private mode.
3. Carry out a web search, usually via Startpage (startpage.com or primarily eu.startpage.com).
4. Call up a linked news page on MSN from the search results.
