Hi @mightypanda, this behavior is not a bug, its just the way it has been designed. There is no significant proof to show that the developer originally intended for new posts on creation to load with the previous discussion list. Refreshing the discussion panel adds newly created posts to the discussion list.

There is a big difference between (1) what you expect to see in a project and (2) features malfunctioning or not working as the developer intended or implemented it to, and hence classified as bugs. You may expect from a feature "A" some certain traits cause you have seen something similar elsewhere, while the developer implements it to behave in a way "B" that is unique to him, cause its the way he wants it to run.

You could however suggest this as an enhancement to the discussion panel - so that, instead of needing a refresh, it automatically adds a newly created post to the existing list.
