Bug Hunting: Busy.org - Loading concern on a non-existing page

After @busy.org released their version 2 on public beta, I started checking @steemit posts using it. There are features on @busy.org which I loved. This includes bookmarks, post drafts, easy-to-use markdown, recommended post, etc. Their user interface is intuitive and their theme is simple yet smart.

While navigating pages from @busy.org, I found a concern on non-existing pages. I was trying to view post related to the submitted contest entries from a user.

Notice that the recommended posts have been loaded but the main page is not. A spinner icon is visible which means that the application is trying to load the page. I've checked the user page and found no such post.

Another scenario I've observed is when I tried to load #photography posts from tag by navigating to url - https://busy.org/photography. I forgot to add post type (trending, created, hot, promoted). Notice that the direct url has no post type on it.

It tried to load the page by using the photography keyword as a sort condition then a blank screen was shown after.

I have checked the same scenario on @steemit and found out that system has its own 404 ErrorDocument (page not found, ErrorDocument - apache directive).

I also tried to load a non-existing post on steemit.

How to replicate concern

1. Login to busy.org
2. On browser search bar, navigate to a non-existing page.
   i.e https://busy.org/photography
3. Press enter to load the page.
4. Observe/check the output.

Suggestion

Set a 404 error page for busy.org.

I don't think their web server is apache but I want to share how to set the ErrorDocument by following steps below:

1. Edit the apache config using any text/system edit. In this case, I've used my favorite Unix editor - vim
   vim /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
2. Look for the ErrorDocument directive by typing / character then the ErrorDocument keyword (/ErrorDocument). Press Enter
3. Set the ErrorDocument page by uncommenting this line (removing #):
   ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
4. Save changes by pressing :wq and Enter key
   Make sure the specified page exists.
5. Restart apache for the changes to take effect.
   service httpd restart
6. Test by navigating to a non-existing page.

Test Environment
