vB 3.6 Bug Thread

[AJ]

Current bug list:
- Image resizing warning bar needs fixing.
- Reputation system postbit button dropdown fails to load.
- Double post prevention gone.
- Old thread warning missing.
- WB javascript nav bar is gone.
- PHP rotators in signatures no longer possible
- Hyperlink colour needs to be changed
- Booleans on Forum Leaders page
- /me hack not implemented
- Multiquote button has different font
- Postbit bugs in IE

Please only post if you have found additional areas of concern.

As to how your signatures now work..

You will see several new content boxes in your User CP under Edit Signature.
One will show you the options currently available to you:
http://files.vbulletin.com/3.6/sigperms-frontend-rules.png

You also will now need to upload any image you wish to be in your signature to WB, similar to your avatars, as seen here:
http://files.vbulletin.com/3.6/sigperms-upload-sigpic.png

and to place them in your signature all you have to do is use a new BBCode [SIGPIC]
the text you place between the sigpic bbcode will control the ALT tag

[hammocksleeper]

i found a bug! the little tab menu is gone. :)

[AJ]

clearly not a bug. :P

i need to re-add that as well.

[Whiteknight]

The mutliquote button is antialiased. :P

Mm, I'm loving having it back though.

[Neu(t)ral Damage]

can you make the file size limit on uploaded images larger?

[AJ]

can you make the file size limit on uploaded images larger?

I assume you mean signature images, and no, this has been the rule on WB for a long time, you're just finally being made accountable for it.

[Black.Ice]

- Quoted posts no longer have the same style of box surrounding them.
- Rotator / PHP files for images no longer works. There goes rotators. :(
- We can see, but not post, in the elusive staff forum. j/k :P

Other than that, it looks cool AJ. Nicely done.

[AJ]

I understand rotators will no longer function, this is a current complaint with Jelsoft, I suspect we'll soon see hacks/default functionality to link to php files. Until then, you can use animated gifs.

Do we really want the old bubble quotes? I'm somewhat partial to the simple, default ones.

[EvilEmpire]

In the thread, where there was the "preview" of vB 3.6, was something about marking forums read without reloading... No such thing it works only for the sub forums.. or?
Uh oh: edit add

35 KB... for these dimentions... and that "whichever is smaller" never worked.

When I edited my post my previos text got quoted byitself.

The Mark Forums Read by clicking on forum images will be coming shortly, there's a lot of code that has to be updated when we upgrade, I got through a lot of it, but there's still quite a bit left.

As to why your signature isn't working, that image is over 100 kb. The limit is clearly shown in the screenshot you posted.

[Black.Ice]

Do we really want the old bubble quotes? I'm somewhat partial to the simple, default ones.

I actually liked the small things that WB's has like this, because it made it unique. Really. One of the reasons I stuck around the site was because it visually grabbed my attention. Having little things like this makes a difference, IMO. It shows that whoever works on the site really pays attention to minute details, and I personally pick up on things like that when visiting other forums.

[AJ]

I agree, but I still like the currents ones better personally.

[Hotshot]

Just great, now my sig picture is 1.4 KB too big to be uploaded. :<

[AJ]

here.. wasn't that bad.

[Aquarian]

Those who have their sigs too large can PM them to me. I can let my Photoshop to edit the colors of the image to fit the filesize restrictions.

Those who have Photoshop and rather do it on their own, open your image and goto File>Save for web... After that you should see an arrow. Click it>Optimize to Filesize>Desired Filesize- 35kb>Save. There, problem solved. No more complaining.

[Ktan]

OMG! You broke it!

Just kidding :P

Hope to see that little menu thing back soon, it was really nifty. Now, I shall endevour to test that multi-quote...

[Hotshot]

Thanks AJ, saved me the work. :)

[Aquarian]

Another thing, can AJ please change color of links in messages? The colors are the same with normal text so it is hard to recognise them.

[bluemicrobyte]

I agree, but I still like the currents ones better personally.
Hmmm, I'm going to have to vote for the old bubblequotes, the square looks too generic/default and too many forums use it =P

[RedRagToAnOrc]

Yay, multiquote is back! I love you, AJ.

Time for me to get a new signiature, evidently. I needed one anyway.

[Ktan]

Hmmm, I'm going to have to vote for the old bubblequotes, the square looks too generic/default and too many forums use it =P

I have to say, seconded.

EDIT: I've just noticed that when you click on 'today's posts,' it doesn't exclude threads you have looked at or posted in anymore. Not sure if that's a problem, but it's something I noticed.

[Darkslayer633]

Well, this may not be a rotator, and while I patiently await the return of rotator using, I have come up with this.

EDIT: I do say that aside from the limit of 35 [I've alyways aimed for 50], and the lack of having no rotator possibilities, I like this new sig thing, it maks shanging them quicker and more efficent.

See Sig

[Neo]

Can you still link to offsite sigs?

Does this completely break my sig now? >_>

If you can link to offsite pics, you can still setup random sigs -- ie: see my wiki page.

EDIT: Waaa. My siggy is broked. Lameness to the extreme :/ I liked my bunches of tiny pics :( Screw the large pics! confromity ftl! =P

Who decided it would be better for the forums to host sigs? It seems like such a strange thing to add. Its going to like completely negate userbars (of which people who use them usually have more then one) and/or its going to make imageshack/other places basically useless >_>;;

-Neo

[Schwitzer]

By requiring users to go through the forum to host their signature images, it allows for tighter control on signature constraints.

[UnHoly-Assassin]

Oh no! My beautiful 3-pic sig! :(

Now I'll have to make a new one...

[Sikawtic]

Bubble quotes = /sign

different colored links = /sign

new signatures = findhacksoon.

[Schwitzer]

No more permanent deletion of posts? :/

Also, signatures with text that extend beyond the horizontal screen size (without a space) are stretching the postbit for posts by those users. (e.g. UnHoly-Assassin, scroll up)

[gamer102]

And please change (if you can) the links back to blue instead of gray.

[Veeger]

To add my two cents here --

1: Overall, I like the changes. Having a linked list at the bottom of the page as well as at the top makes reading the end of a topic, and going back to the forum itself, so much easier and is a problem I had contemplated bringing to your's (AJ), or Schwitz's, attention. Good job.

2: My only true complaint is related (RELATED) to the signature picture hosting idea. Very good and sound idea -- however, is there no way to allow mulitple pictures, so long as they do not total or exceed the limit? ie: the two pictures I had were both 3 and 7 KB respectively, and both were less than 100x75 pixels each, both within the prescribed guidelines. According to the guidelines they were legal, but with the new program I can only have one at a time.

[AJ]

You will have one signature image.
There are no hacks or workarounds that we are going to be looking into.

Sorry.

[Kingscrab]

I have to say, seconded. Thirded. The squares are boring and lame. The bubbles had way more cool factor, and were, quite frankly, more pleasant to read.

Meh.

[Holocaust]

You will have one signature image.
There are no hacks or workarounds that we are going to be looking into.

Sorry.

Nooo T T'

May I ask why the limit size has become more reserved?

[Schwitzer]

Yes, bubble quotes are coming back. However, they are merely a cosmetic change and low on AJ's to do list. Enough parroting already. :/

[AJ]

Nooo T T'

May I ask why the limit size has become more reserved?

For the last time, they aren't.

http://www.warboards.org/faq.php?faq=faq_rules#faq_faq_rules_signatures

You're getting more size than has been the rule.

[Black.Ice]

I don't know if this is a functionality issue, or if this how it's supposed to work, but when using the new multiquote feature, they don't show up when you "Go Advanced". The only way I can seem to access them is to hit someone's "Quote" button, after I've already selected their multi-quote...

[AJ]

Try the "Post Reply" button at the bottom and top of every thread. :P

It doesn't work with the Quick Reply Go Advanced button.

[Black.Ice]

Wow, I've never seen that button until now. :D

[Hawthorne]

Glad to see we're getting the multiquote ;)

[hammocksleeper]

Try the "Post Reply" button at the bottom and top of every thread. :P

It doesn't work with the Quick Reply Go Advanced button.

You could do that, or just hit the quote button on someone's post. In other words, click every multiquote you want, save the last one, and hit quote on his post. Simple enough

[Veeger]

You will have one signature image.

I wasn't complaining, merely asking. :)

[Basan]

Glad to see we're getting the multiquote ;)

Great... just great. Anyone can remember me how to clear my cache solely for this site on FF? And I ask because... no multiquote for me as of yet. :P

*Heads up trying to find the old nav' bar to see if the User CP (http://www.warboards.org/usercp.php) is in the same place*
Edit add: Btw, what's with all the zeros before the team in this page (http://www.warboards.org/showgroups.php?)? :(

[Nickodemus]

you cannot bulk delete private messages. If this was stated before my bad. sorry

[AJ]

you cannot bulk delete private messages. If this was stated before my bad. sorry

Umm, yes you can?

[AJ]

arcade is now working again.

[Nickodemus]

umm, i tried and i said no messages were checked....

you know the boxes next to the dates that if you check them it doesn't recognize the fact that i clicked that one little box. Or the all box for that matter.

[AJ]

I -just- removed multiple PMs by checking the boxes and then going down and selecting Delete from the dropdown menu.

I suggest you empty your browser's cache and try again.

[The_Maker]

Well, as far as I can tell... the /me command is still broken :(

But it was broken before the update... so I guess it isn't really considered a 'bug' =P

[Nickodemus]

I thank thee o great and powerfull one...

<bows>

[King_Critter]

I'm not really sure about this whole "uploading of signature pics." You've already mentioned that this allows for tighter control of signatures, but I'm not really understanding this -- because the only more control it could give you, it seems, is limeting demensions. The file size really doesn't matter, because as far as I know pictures shown on sites that are hosted on other sites have no efect on bandwith or space or anything. As for demensions, that was never really a problem in the first place; only a few newbs had HUGE siggys. Actually, some signatures have even gotten bigger -- see neo's for an example.

[Darkslayer633]

Critter, the main problem was size... like huge 200kb sigs, because it slowed page load time.

There was alyways a rule in place, and some followed it tighter then others I myself kept everything under 50kbs, some people had huge sigs, and for that reason, I like it.

[Sikawtic]

AJ - Are you going to look into rotating signatures?

[Schwitzer]

Edit add: Btw, what's with all the zeros before the team in this page (http://www.warboards.org/showgroups.php?)? :(
The zeroes and ones are boolean values representing whether that staff member is online or not.

[wa123]

I found bug on arcade, I just play donkey kong, with score of about 79000
that suppose to be the new champion score, but that didn't show on the score list.
dman it waste all my time...

Even though I have really slow Dial-up, I never noticed that problem. Everything else just loaded while any large pictures just loaded slower... Although my earlyer point still stands -- I saw very few people that actually had large siggy pictures.

[AJ]

cool. it's not changing though.

[Whiteknight]

I know it isn't that big of a problem, but the anti-alias thing really does bug me. It looks so out of place.

[Sikawtic]

And about the rotators?

[Schwitzer]

And about the rotators?
How about reading the thread for questions that have already been answered?

I understand rotators will no longer function, this is a current complaint with Jelsoft, I suspect we'll soon see hacks/default functionality to link to php files. Until then, you can use animated gifs.

[MidnightGladius]

Minor, but there it is...

The graphic for arcade champions is messed up. The 2nd and 3rd place pictures are both the same (2nd place).

[AJ]

Look closely. There's a tie for 2nd. ;)

[The_Maker]

How soon can we expect to have that hideous black line seperating signatures from posts removed? Or if not removed, just altered so it doesn't stand out as much? :(

[AJ]

beep.

[AJ]

You can now double-click on forum images to mark those forums read.

[AJ]

I have to say, seconded.

EDIT: I've just noticed that when you click on 'today's posts,' it doesn't exclude threads you have looked at or posted in anymore. Not sure if that's a problem, but it's something I noticed.
Just saw this Ktan, that's because you're clicking Today's Posts. It will show all posts from that day. You want to click the New Posts link. That will reflect only posts after your last visit / that you haven't already visited.

[EvilEmpire]

Hmm.. that "Top" button in the bottom of thread viewing pages.. is gone :confused: I just got used to it, will it be replaced? It'll be even beter if its not at the very bottom.
Edit add after posting: ouch that "youll be taken to your post" message scared the shit outta me... wasn't like that before (yesterday, not before the update)

[Ktan]

Just saw this Ktan, that's because you're clicking Today's Posts. It will show all posts from that day. You want to click the New Posts link. That will reflect only posts after your last visit / that you haven't already visited.

Thank you, I think I missed that one :P

[Seal]

yarr im being annoyed by the thing right here:
http://hylje.fi/files/idle.png
and speaking of that, image scaling is broken too.

[ice]

grr....i got my best score at kong fu fighter and when i click to submit it,it takes me back to the arcade main page...it happend to me when i played donkey kong and monster mash shooter :<...plz fix it AJ thx!

[Hotshot]

Yeah, what's the deal? Arcade scores don't submit!

[ice]

lawl, il be gyroball champ 4 ever if they don't submit :D

[hammocksleeper]

How about reading the thread for questions that have already been answered?

I think he wanted to know if AJ will be looking into a hack so that rotators and other dynamic images may function. AJ had vaguely acknowledged the possibility of the existence of these hacks, but did not say whether they might be used here at our forums.

[ice]

hmm the arcade problem seems to effect all games beside gyroball and falldown....

[Pirahordica_King]

How do you undo the "Mark as read" thing?

[Schwitzer]

How do you undo the "Mark as read" thing?
You don't.

[RedRagToAnOrc]

There are two bugs with the Arcade. Firstly, for me, games which have no highscores take me back to the main arcade page when I submit my score, as ice pointed out, but also, on a lot of games I get inverted colours (for instance the squares background is black instead of white and the Falldown background is black with weird white shapes as holes - yet the ball is still black.

So that kinda needs to be fixed. Also, get some tournaments going!

[TheBB]

You have also misspelt Gyroball. Other than that the arcade has the above mentioned flaws. Scores seem not to submit on certain games. I saw you removed the antialiasing on the multiquote button, but the font is still different, and from a design point of view that needs changing. Other than that WB seems intact. I don't miss the floating menu - really.

Good job! Now work some more! ;)

[ice]

yeah..the multiquote looks wierd...i didn't noticed it till now

[sololop]

Er, is the little tab on side side comming back? With the user CP and arcade and IRC on it and stuff? Because the toolbars are annoying to me.

[Tharisfal]

Found a Major bug. See for yourself in my briliant ilustration. It's kinda hard to explain :P

And for that "Top" button.. the button is there but the image does not have the graphical button
about this:
http://img.orgnetwork.com/wb/custom/hf/bottom.jpg
And this (http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=19847#top) link

[AJ]

You can't look 10 pixels above that image and see the words "Top" ?

[UnHoly-Assassin]

Oh wow. I didn't notice those buttons at the bottom of the page...neat :D. But it feels a bit redundent since we already have those links on top of every page, and people who will see the bottom buttons would likely already know the sites. It is asthetically pleasing tho ^_^.

[EvilEmpire]

You can't look 10 pixels above that image and see the words "Top" ?
Damn im stupid... But the link is still in the bottom bar, anyway the PM popup notification "doesent" work.

[Sikawtic]

Can you at least make quotes not be italic for now?

[Markpyro]

What's with the domain "orgnetwork.com"? I know that there are images stored there for all of the network sites, but anything else? It'd be cool to have an index page on it too, with links to all the sites and such.

[Basan]

The zeroes and ones are boolean values representing whether that staff member is online or not.

*Meh* Stop the presses... what a news flash. I've asked since I saw the globes perfectly working on every other page of WB's. Still bug reporting, no? :angel:

yeah..the multiquote looks wierd...i didn't noticed it till now

May I just add that it just hasn't worked for me either? (Other than quoted posts getting lit up in red after pressing the "Go advanced" button. Only have noticed this when going back to 'copy-quote' every single one of'em.) *Somewhat sighs*
Hence that, forgive any 'choppiness' on my quoting and subsequent quotees being unlinked (against what was promised). :P

Oh wow. I didn't notice those buttons at the bottom of the page...neat . :D But it feels a bit redundent since we already have those links on top of every page, and people who will see the bottom buttons would likely already know the sites. It is asthetically pleasing tho ^_^.

You mean the circular buttons that are over at the bottom of each WB's page? :rolleyes: They've been there for ages now... you folks don't give a test run over the site every now and then just to see what 'new, good' surprises they have stored for us to use (and 'abuse')? :D

Although I just hope that the links, like for instance the "log out user", exactly above that bottom bar - if I can call it that way - aren't just a sidetrack of some sort to evaluate the menu's nav bar purpose to come back. I seriously found it useful as heaven, with all it's rounded corners and the like. It eased my forumming around here by plenty. ;)

Can you at least make quotes not be italic for now?

Ditto. We already know that they're quoted and imho it removes the text formatting some use to make a point 'stand out' from the rest of his/hers own text. AJ, please consider it on the new vBulletin reviewing/planning/whatever you call it is.

---------
And without further adue, may I also point that the avy size allowed is tinier than it used to (from 25 KBs to 20)?
I wonder if 5 KBs in difference make it really worth it, since most users will have to resize their avatars now... or ask to their kind authors if they'll make the extraneous favour to do so (once again). :concern:

[UnHoly-Assassin]

I just noticed now that those bar thingies are gone (like x number of posts gets you y bars of z color). Whatever happened to those?

[AJ]

They're there, so that users don't have to scroll to the top to access the network site. hrm.

Can you at least make quotes not be italic for now?
I'll be changing how quotes appear soon. Please just bare with it.

What's with the domain "orgnetwork.com"? I know that there are images stored there for all of the network sites, but anything else? It'd be cool to have an index page on it too, with links to all the sites and such.
We plan to in the future, but for now there's not a huge need and you all seem to want WB fixed first, I can't do both. :P

I just noticed now that those bar thingies are gone (like x number of posts gets you y bars of z color). Whatever happened to those?
They had been gone for a while.

[AJ]

Arcade is now working correctly once again. Sorry for any issues you suffered.

Just for the record, I feel that all of the changes had good reason, and seem to be working properly (for the most part). For a reworking of the entire site code, the glitches are few and far between.

Good job AJ, and the rest of the programming team who made this possible. The signature complaints will subside eventually, after people get used to the new regulations.

[EvilEmpire]

It works 50/50 Aquarian experienced it too, although its not a very big deal, the "Youll soon be redirected to your post" msg also appeares with 50/50 chance.

He's talking about Squares.

i pointed the errors/bug

ice, welcome to the club...I have been dealing with those problems for months now. It's because AJ decided to switch to using images that are PNG transparency. Which means that IE doesn't support it. You have to use firefox or some other browser that supports PNG transparency to make it look "pretty" again. I like IE too much to switch so I've just gotten used to it. :)

It doesn't have anything to do with the recent upgrade.

[AJ]

Hammock, there are no .png's on the postbit.

And Squares works now.

[hammocksleeper]

Hammock, there are no .png's on the postbit.

Ok well that's the explanation you offered me a while ago for the messed up postbit, which has been messed up for quite some time now. If I recall correctly it started happening after you updated the quote boxes to the "new" old (round) ones. :)

[ice]

there was a php error with the pm box 2..when i was at home, useing IE, i got it in the upper left corner...and that damn keyboard has no print scree button...so you should check it out

[Black.Ice]

This isn't necessarily a bug, but while you're looking into hacks, etc. I was wondering if there are hacks out there for a better Search Feature? Sometimes, finding posts by users is a pain, and searching within threads for a user, for example, doesn't work very well.

[Seal]

(minor) usability bug: the "jump-to" button on quotes changes the URL when the quoted posts are on the same page, causing an unnecessary reload. might be hard to fix, though..

[B.A.Baracus]

I noticed something thats not on the list yet. When you click someone's profile it has the "find all posts made by" and "find all threads" but the last active post thing is missing.

[Basan]

May I also make a note that the Member's List (http://www.warboards.org/memberlist.php) item is MIA from the User CP (http://www.warboards.org/usercp.php) area or any other that I (briefly) tried to look onto when 1st realised it's absence? Some may not even use it, but I do. Even if from time to time. ;p

Edit add: Oh, and while you're a it, just correct the link to WC.org (http://www.warcraft.org/index-old/) on the bottom page bar.

And just liked to make a noticed that all the avies I 'carried' here during my two year stay are now unusable due to image limit size (only with a couple exceptions to that). :P

[Tharisfal]

Sorry if this has been stated before but images don't resize. More exactly the image with snakes that Aqo posted in "Snakes on a Train!" thread.

[hammocksleeper]

Basan, look under "Member Tools" on the navbar. :)

Great and that's one... even if not properly answered (as you can see below). :P I stated that above just 'cause I knew that it wasn't accessible but... *Meh* forgot to mention it. :concern: Now, have just decided to highlight in red the problem that happens right after I click on the Member Tools up there (and keeping me to access through regular means the Member List). ;)

And, anyway, what happened to the rest (read, the other two I listed on my previous post), hmm? :angel:

[TheBB]

It seems to have been lost in the confusion, but I restate that Gyroball and Maeda Path are misspelt. Also Snake 2 have wrong colors as well.

Holy crap Basan, your navbar is completely different from mine. Weird.

[MidnightGladius]

Haha, nice one, Schwitzer.

And yeah, my navbar is the same as Hammocksleeper's. Not sure what happened to yours, Basan.

[Schwitzer]

This isn't a bug, but I just thought I'd whack "Bring back reputation" here before we forget again.

[Basan]

No, no, no. You've got me all wrong. :P That thing (we're speaking about) happens right after I click on the Member Tools link up there and it remains that way until I close the thread page from the tab bar or change it.

[hammocksleeper]

No, no, no. You've got me all wrong. :P That thing (we're speaking about) happens right after I click on the Member Tools link up there and it remains that way until I close the thread page from the tab bar or change it.

I don't understand. I click on "Member Tools" and this is what I get.

[Basan]

I don't understand. I click on "Member Tools" and this is what I get.

I also click on it and it shows me the exact same thing... for about a second or so (then it changes into that). :P

[ice]

what's with the gray and blue small circles under the number of posts?

[Schwitzer]

Wow, that was fast...

We're bringing back Reputation. More info to come later.

[ice]

yeah well..i like beeing active when i have time..and now, that iam useing FF iam even faster...hope the info will come soon :) so i'l understand whats with this "reputation"

[AJ]

Fixed.

Back now, but weird template glitch is preventing its full use. I'll get to that later tmrw hopefully.

[bluemicrobyte]

Ah, return of the reputation system. I think we might be able to make it work this time. I can't wait to hear the rest of the details.

You fixed the quotes... they look much sexier now ;)

[wa123]

where is that short cut bar? I just got use to it. I lov that bar

what shortcut bar ? :o

-----

good to have back the old menu in the left side, always on my left side when i need it :)

[Aquarian]

Yay! The menu is back! The menu is bacK! :D

*Hovers cursor in and out of the menu happily*

[Markpyro]

I compliment you, AJ, for hacking through VBulliten code. I find it's hardest to change things in other people's work, and you've sucessfully modified the board several times for the better. :)

[Basan]

*Wohoo!* The menu is back... and the pic linking to the quoted post has improved also. ;)

Anyway, how do we use the 'new' multiquote function? :confused: I hitted the multiquote button of every post I want to reply and when ended that, finally went to the "go advanced" one, but it never presents me the quotees' sentences. :concern: Can anyone clear me on that predicament of mine? :P

[AJ]

As I said earlier, you can't click the Go Advanced button to utilize multiquote -- you need to click the "post reply" button on the top and bottom of every thread.

[Basan]

As I said earlier, you can't click the Go Advanced button to utilize multiquote -- you need to click the "post reply" button on the top and bottom of every thread.

Testing... 1, 2, 3. Thanks, it worked. ;) *Meh* And that was just your way to get ppl using those buttons more often now, wasn't it? :smirk:

Edit: When adding smillies from the panel on the right side of the advanced posting thing, they end up as unknown pictures upon the final post. Just wanted you to know this too.

[Zerg_eater]

holy crap i thought this would be closed by now

[Markpyro]

Why would it be closed? There is a long list of bugs to be fixed. Or have you just gotten used to the "closed-few-minutes-after-creation" mentality, caused by all of the threads you've made that have had the same fate?

[AJ]

woah kids.
let's keep this thread bug-focused.

[ice]

got another one:

put out menu button on the quick forum bar, the button needs more croping on watteva :)


hope it helps

well its the first time i see it like that...but ain't that require fixing? :D

[kongurous]

eh...

Look in the WoW forum. Am I the only one who sees a bunch of "weplpl" posts that direct you to a non-existant post when clicking the arrow button and when you click the account name "weplpl" it takes you to the account of the last real poster in the thread?

[AJ]

look at his account. he was a spammer and had his posts removed.

[kongurous]

look at his account. he was a spammer and had his posts removed.

Then why are they still listed as the most recent posts?

[AJ]

because rather than update the database and clog the forums with unneeded bandwidth restrictions, i'll wait for you guys to post in those threads.

[Basan]

If only it were on the WoW sub-forum I woudn't worry. But that fella spammed his copy-paste post also in WC areas and even in the SC sections. Report on sight, that's what I did. :smirk:
(Even though that 60 seconds minimum limit between reports gets a tad on the annoying side, AJ. :P)

[SuiCidAl-KiSmEt]

I stopped skimming through the 5th page and went straight to the 15th. So did anyone notice the small post edit message is under the signature? I don't think I can ever get used to it, it looks so... misplaced.

Do you guys mind putting it back up?

[EvilEmpire]

Theres a slight glich with the resizing images. Heres the deal:
I cache the image, it automatically resizes to small. Good. I click the bar it fullsizes. Good. But when i pres the bar again to small-size it the image resizes but the post, in which the image is does not resize. happened here (http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?p=359881#post359881)

[Basan]

Alas, also noticed the thing (http://www.warboards.org/showpost.php?p=359938&postcount=5) that Evil' spoke about for myself not long ago. :(

Is it now normal that when we edit our post it direct and strictly goes to the advanced post part thus not keeping the window on it's thread like it lately used to? :o (And it was the 1st editing I meant to, btw.)

Also on that advanced editing window I've noticed that it appeared a lot of funky coding... revamping still, I wonder?
Edit add: After a few more attempts during my latest posts around here I've just noticed that all coding buttons are down as well (bold, italic, underline, colour, whichever). :P

[AJ]

no it still quick edits, your browser is probably the cause for all those issues.

[Basan]

AJ, you can can it because it won't stick. :P My browser is the same that I use everyday to access WB's and only today it has 'screwed over'. What are the possibilities that it decided to flick it's behaviour exactly today since it's the same and hasn't done any updates/changes recently (since Friday)? Somehow, I'm more for pointing the finger at the forum revamp. ;)

[AJ]

Umm, I haven't changed anything on the site in days, so you can can it!

[Schwitzer]

Oh AJ, how you make me giggle so ;)

[Sikawtic]

Why can't we have un-italic text in our quotes?

[Basan]

New notice, alas. Or at least, it looks that way. :P
The new PM warning thingy just flipped @**3. 'Kismet just dropped me a PM and only noticed 'cause by a chance of fortune I went to my UserCP. :concern:

[Modred]

This isn't a "bug", so to speak, but it is annoying. I know I have new PMs. I intentionally leave some of them unsanswered for several days so that they are easier to find when I need them. The flashing envelope on every page is distracting, annoying, unnecessary, unwanted, creates unnecessary blank space in its container and overall is gimmicky. Come on...it's flashing for crying out loud.

I did a quick run through of the options to see if I could disable it, but to no avail. If I missed the check box, please let me know. There's a reason I don't have WB announce to me every time I get a PM, and I don't want this behavior forced on me.

[Basan]

Ok, the new thread/forum header is swell and all that, but... I sincerely prefered to do the login on my left side (since that way it was different to many other forums I drop by). Originality got somewhat lost there, imho. ;p

Edit add (way later): Just letting ya know fellas... the merge posts' function still doesn't work. :concern:

[AJ]

Take three seconds and read my last post. Notice anything about that? Yeah.

And look, I'm sorry, but with every addition comes some change. We changed the header breadcrumb back because it allows for some things that aren't otherwise accessible. We changed the the PM notification because some people don't notice their PMs when they disable the popup. You can still toggle whether you wish to receive email or popups about new PMs, but I find a little flashing image isn't a bad thing -- especially if it gets you to read your PMs quicker (that goes for me just as much as anyone else).

And yes, the login moved from the left of the unregistered message to the right inside the breadcrumb. Really? You care that much about 300px?

As we upgrade we then go back and re-evaluate where things are, or how things run in relation to the rest of the place now that the system operates differently, as it normally does after a vB upgrade. We'll take the advice under notice, but please remember it's a priority to get things back up and running, not to preserve exact appearances.

Change is good. :P

[hammocksleeper]

Compliment %1$s with Positive Karma
Your comments on %1$s's post:

but it appears to be going to the correct person, so no worries there. btw the stuff you added at the top of the postbit looks really great! nice and slick. :)

also i just noticed, whenever I click the quote button on one of markpyro's posts (and only his posts, I tried it on multiple ones), his signature is showing up in the quoted text as well, for some reason.

[Basan]

Take three seconds and read my last post. Notice anything about that? Yeah.

So that "double post prevention" shiz' was it? You really must also try explain yourself in terms that folks around here acknowledge better. *Go silly me* :rolleyes: And me thinking that the merge postbit, the way that I know it better to be, was an extra to allow members to add tiny bits of info shortly afterwards and not considered as an anti-spam tool of some sort.
I apologize for that mix up.

I do like the new thread header, although just preferred that it's login part was still made in the left side of it. *Meh* But it isn't that of a big deal, anyway. ;)

As for the PM system, I don't what happened but it is possible for it to get 'munched over' if the bandwidth acessing WB's was somehow 'overloaded'? :confused: I sincerely suspect that, because have never changed it, in my UserCP, to hide the PM warning system since the day of my registration here. :angel:

And I do like change or else I wouldn't have commended ya on all these new stuff or would use'em like I'm doing (post number code anyone?). :P That n' same goes for the job I do. A safety engineer's life is driven by constant change.

Edit add: Btw, excellent job on the new report post icon. *Pats AJ's back for it* :)

[AJ]

Priv. Message window should work better now, with the reply button operating correctly.
I'm currently working on redoing the layout of several buttons inside the postbit, though many are staff-only tools so only a few of you may notice these changes.

Basan, what about PMs? I can't hardly understand that.

[Basan]

And honestly speaking... when you would've read it? :smirk:

Anyway, the PM warning window is just appearing correctly - so far - as one staff member just PM'ed about me reporting my own posts (when they didn't merge). ;)

[Modred]

I noticed the "Report Post" button is appearing on all posts, including my own. Reporting myself was very tempting, but seemed like a bad idea after a little reflection. Unless I'm mistaken, wasn't it formerly set up so that you could not report your own posts?

[AJ]

Yeah, it should be working fine -- ??

[AJ]

I believe I fixed the onlinestatus error on the Forum Leader's page. Hard to test when other staff aren't currently on, but it should be working again.

Oh AJ my post above had two weird, non-critical bugs in it. The quotes were from the repuation popup - try it for yourself. There are some weird characters that aren't being resolved to the actual name of the guy. Sorry if that wasn't very clear. And the markpyro quoted signature thing, I have no idea what that could be caused by, it doesn't worry me too much. Just thought you should know in case you had some free time you wanted to waste :)

[Markpyro]

testtest

[AJ]

Ahh, thanks Ham.
I know about the issue with the reputation, but the deal with MP's signature is a carry-over from the old signature system just being screwy with current things.

It'll only do that in his older posts that aren't affected by the current system. Should be better now.

Stop the presses... here's the latest 'bug'. All locations that generally appear next to the members data, just to the left to our posts (and above our avatars) have disappeared. I don't know if that is/was on purpose, but I suppose it'd be better to let ya know.

[EvilEmpire]

I do hope the edit button is gone temprarily... :shiftyr:
What the... it appeared... Disregard this message

[own3d0406]

Copy and paste dosent seem to work, or maybe it never worked?

That's more likely a problem with your own computer. :)

O_o... does it work with your computer? I can copy, but when I try to paste the computer doesnt give me that option.

[AJ]

copy + paste has absolutely nothing to do with us.
entirely you.

[EvilEmpire]

Is that the way subscribed forums should look like? Seems a bit messed up.
http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n185/EvilEmpire_/fsubsbit.png

[Schwitzer]

What browser did that happen in?

[EvilEmpire]

What browser did that happen in?
It happens in both IE (7) and Firefox.

[hammocksleeper]

Is that the way subscribed forums should look like? Seems a bit messed up.

Hm..., it's working fine for me. Are you giving the page time enough to load completely? Sometimes the layout gets messed up like that if the page is loading slowly, but it eventually works itself out.

[EvilEmpire]

Oh, i've reloaded and revisited the CP multiple times, its allways like that. Clearing cache also.
Just decided to subscribe to a forum to see whats its like..

Edit Add: I thought it would collapse or something when more than one subsctiption.. but not.
http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n185/EvilEmpire_/2subsc.png

[hammocksleeper]

all-caps post prevention is gone

[Black.Ice]

Hmm, I've Noticed It Still Works With Titles Though. calibur started A Thread And It Was Changed To Lowercase.

EDIT: No, it still works. That entire post was written in caps.

[EvilEmpire]

I'd like to note some things about code tags

1. I think they resize the postbit (at least in PMs) See here (http://up.kupatrix.com/f/2/Pictures/codetags.jpg)
2. Pasting from code text doesn't preserve the new lines (or what-its-called)
Code
*new row(hitting Enter)*
Code
Copied and pasted comes out:

Code *new row* Code

A little bit inconvenient since wrapping in [code] sometimes aims at preserving new row (empty lines and number of spaces between characters)..

Catching my drift?

[Basan]

Ok, decided to post this (http://www.warboards.org/arcade.php?&act=Arcade&do=stats&gameid=128&st=0) in here. Anyone who plays Hexxagon will spot the doofus mistake on the spot, but wanted you fellas to know. By the way, it just happened in FF (v1.5.0.10) while on one of my scarce visits to the Arcade and I also happened to have a few other game tabs open, one of them Hexxagon where the script blooper score dump occurred.

And that forum subscription thingy still occurs in 'my side of the block'. Even after clensed cache. :P

Glitches are funny

I know this might sound a bit picky, but the 'Negative Rep' icon in your user CP looks rather shabby. It's adding insult to injury. ;)

[Basan]

Honestly, I only have a faint idea about it. But to prevent eventual glitch exploits will leave it as it is. :smirk:

[AJ]

I still need to fix subscribed forums, but that's about all.
This thread is really old, so I'm going to let it die.
