Title: Known bugs
Post by: Chucara on August 07, 2007, 08:43:28 PM
If anyone should notice anything that should be changed in this board, reply to this thread, and it will be looked into.

Bugs so far:
-- All reported bugs dealt with --

Possible bugs:
- Update functionality of profile lags. As does the "Mark as read" link. I'll keep an eye on these.

Resolved issues:
- Replying/posting returns to index instead of topic: Not actually an issue, this can be changed by users in their profiles.
- Members not able to reply in Construction site forum
- Censored words list updated: The words "El Hombre muy Magnifico", "prawn" and "ill dressed person" are now censored.
- Classic forum now operational again. Had apparantly not been working for a long time. www.unwashed.org/classic
- E-mails not being hidden on the member list. (Guest can't see them)

Issues that aren't mine to deal with:
- Sylvin has misspelled her name.
- So has Paladin ;) (Man, I never tire from that joke)

If Thanatos can consider changing his avatar then I can change the spelling of my name! Tis only fair.

You know the question, but not who asks it!

Ah yes but who are you?

I thought about changing my name, but I'd rather not go through another 2002 saga thank you very much.
But then again, those people dont really post any more... hmm...

Ooo, I have a bug to report:
The bloody thing doesnt like updating. At all.

I hit "mark as read". Nothing
Hit it again. Nothing.
Hit it repeatedly. Nothing.
Refresh. Nothing.
Leave and come back. Yay marked!

Sheesh.

Same problem with my profile.
Update!
Err, no.
Come on, I changed something so update it!
Umm... not seeing it.
Are you kidding? Its right there! Update!
Dude, you're trippin. Here, let me put it back the way it was before you got here.
You must be kidding me. Refresh.
Yep, still as it was. Perfect.
updateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdateupdate!

7 times out of 10: Uhh, no. How's about that?
3 times out of 10: Okay, okay, okay! Sheesh! Have your stupid change then! See if I care!

>.>

What? Me, obsessive? Nawww....

SysMan: I'll keep an eye on it, but I can't seem to recreate the problem. Do you get an error, does it time out, or does nothing happen?
Title: Re: Know bugs
Post by: The SysMan on August 07, 2007, 11:27:02 PM
Nothing happens.
Like, I hit it, the page reloads, and its back to how it was before I hit update.
Sometimes my profile updates with a double click instead of a single click. Other times, nada.

Marking as read works now, though.

SysMan: Ok.. If the page reloads properly, I don't think it's the board - especially not since the host has been acting up again. Let me know if it continues for more than a day or two.

On another note: The e-mails being displayed has been resolved. The case in point was this: You can always see your own e-mail in the member list, even if it is hidden. Administrators can also always see it. Other members can only see those e-mails that aren't hidden. Guests can see no emails at all.

I notice that new replies instead of returning to the thread return you to the forum. This is probably a board setting that is easily fixed. I'll see if I can figure it out.

Beat you to it :D

In your user profile:
- Select "Look and Layout Preferences"
- Check the "Return to topics after posting by default." box.

Simple as that :D

ChucÄra is now banned!

Or at least he would be if it weren't for the fact that we actually need someone crazy enough to be tech admin.

Thanks, I was wondering about that.

I'm still having the problems.
It may be a firewall issue. And if so, I'm just gonna hafta accept it. Oh well.
Title: Re: Known bugs
Post by: Chucara on August 14, 2007, 02:45:28 AM
Firewall sounds very strange.. Are you using Internet Explorer or Firefox?
Title: Re: Known bugs

I use teh fox.
Rar.

Ok.. strange indeed. Having nothing happen at all would in my eyes point to a javascript problem or something like that. The server times out more frequently at the moment, but for me, it always goes to a white error screen.

I thought it was the new board, but seeing as www.unwashed.org also times out, it's our hosts again.

I've noticed that twice now someone has put an image in their post and it's bled into the previous post. I've included a pic of what's happening. BTW, I have the forum setup so newest posts are at the top. Oh and it would probably help you to know that I'm seeing this in Firefox.

I think it is either because your browser hasn't loaded the CSS properly, probably due to the host, which is being pretty unstable at the moment.

If this is the case, a simple refresh should fix it..

Ewwww.... that's creepy. You have the newest posts at the top? That's... just weird.

It's like seeing Blue Ketchup.

Okay, now I know something is screwy on my end.
I mean, I posted to a thread, got shown the post and then flipped on to the forum main page, only to see it wasn't there.
I check the thread again, and sure enough its not there.

Naww I say to myself, and go back to the main page and hit refresh again and again until it switches.
Took 5 tries but there it was. Hooray.

So yeah, I think it might be a caching problem on my end mixed with a silly firewall. I'll live with it.
Just FYI should something else similar occur.
Title: Re: Known bugs

Trying holding CTRL as you refresh the page, it should clear your browsers cache for that page. Some browser allow you to turn caching off. It's strange though, the pages should already tell your browser to disable caching.. But as you say, it could just be that you're behind a proxy that caches the pages. In that case, try adding a bogus value to the end of the address: i.e. instead of http://www.unwashed.org/forum/index.php, use http://www.unwashed.org/forum/index.php?snuff=1

Or for threads, use http://www.unwashed.org/forum/index.php?action=post;topic=22.15;num_replies=23&something=goat

Hi everyone, this is Killmod.

I thought I would just mention that, in changing my email account on my profile several weeks ago, I was unable to log in without confirming my email address, which never got. Chances are I spelled it wrong, but nonetheless it was annoying enough. So I just decided to create a new name. I figured, being a bug, it belonged here.

You put "www." in front of your email. If you want, I can fix that, and delete this account. It's up to you.
