1. Thank via mobile an edit done in a page you are watching. You get a confirmation message. 2. Go to desktop, and check Special:Log/thanks to confirm that your thanks are there. 3. Now go to your Watchlist. EXPECTED The edit you have thanks appears as thanked. ACTUALLY That edit still appears as "thankable", as if you wouldn't have thanked it before. Thanks given via mobile aren't registered in your watchlist. You will only find the thanks given via desktop.
Unsure if this is an issue in Thanks or MF...
Mobile rewrites the Watchlist so it's a mobile problem. Like a lot of websites, yes the watchlist view on mobile is not as feature rich as desktop (either intentionally or not intentionally). There is a tracking bug for these absent features. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 56817 ***
Just checking whether you understood the bug reported, as I fail to see what it has to do with the mobile watchlist: (In reply to comment #0) > 1. Thank via mobile an edit done in a page you are watching. You get a > confirmation message. > 2. Go to desktop, and check Special:Log/thanks to confirm that your thanks > are > there. This is clear. The thanks happens in a mobile diff page, not in the watchlist or the history. > 3. Now go to your Watchlist. Sorry, here I meant the history of the page in desktop view, where "thank" / "thanked" options can be seen, not your mobile watchlist where no thanks status is displayed. > EXPECTED > > The edit you have thanks appears as thanked. > > ACTUALLY > > That edit still appears as "thankable", as if you wouldn't have thanked it > before.

Let me insist that these expectations are based on the history of the page in desktop, not the mobile. The thanks sent from mobile are properly logged at Special:Log/thanks, but there are two problems: * Thanks from mobile are not shown in page history. * MobileFrontend seems to have no memory at all about the Thanks sent. If you visit the same diff you have thanked (from mobile or desktop, it doesn't matter) then the button shown is always Thank, no Thanked. For all these reasons I doubt this has anything to do with bug 56817 and the mobile watchlist.
Does the new title make more sense now (it might be worth reopening a clearer bug preferably with screenshots)? I'll raise a separate bug for the memory problem.
See bug 59828
I'm pretty sure this is not an issue in MobileFrontend unless the API has changed (please feel free to bounce back)
