Official BUG REPORT thread (new)

[Kate]

Thanks for your help but it's not a quote reply problem Mage. The problem is that I can no longer compare original content in posts that have been edited. SmokeyJoe added a feature to the forum not long ago that allowed us to compare what was originally posted after edits. Someone edited a post today after I had replied and now I can't remember the original content.

Any idea when this might be sorted Joe?

Yeh, you can read the original for a few minutes but when you go back to it...it's not available to click on again.

Argh, dammit - that's a strange one, especially since it doesn't seem to be related to the issues mentioned above....

You're not receiving the "message is too short" error.

I will look into this - apologies for the annoyance...

SJ

Sorry for the late reply, Smokey, but I've been away. No, I wasn't getting the "too short" error, but everything seems to be working fine now. Sorry for the aggravation and thanks for your help with the other issues i pm'd you about!

Is there a problem with sending Private Messages? I have composed and sent two messages in the past several days, but my Sent Message box is empty.

Breakfast--I will try to send you one now--Sun

 

[breakfastchef]

Got it; PM'ed you back.

I still have no sent items even though I have sent a dozen or so PM's over the past month. The one I just sent to you is not in my sent folder.

Wholey Wacky!

Figured out my own problem. There is no default option to save a message to the Sent Items folder like other forums I belong to. So, I have to remember to check the option to save each message to the Sent Items folder everytime I send a PM.

The system logs me out when I am writing anything but a very brief post.
it also logs me out when I click a link to a page ref. in a thread...

I was just in the classified and swaps section and saw an announcement from SJ. When I clicked to view the announcement, I was redirected to the home page.

What was the message? What action was needed - as stated in the title of the announcement?

Was this just a test, or a bug?

Ok, just got to view the announcement. Nevermind this post.

I don't know if this has been reported or not. I can't read all the pages in long threads.

It happened with an older thread, but it's happening now with the big "US Senator blah blah" thread. I can get to page 18 or so, and then anytime I click 19 or above, or LAST, I get bumped back to page 18.

I'm using XP and Firefox. I can work around it by opening up an IE tab with the IE-Tab-extension in Firefox and see the later pages, but can't do it with a Firefox tab.

getting logged off while reading threads or replying to personal messages.
even when the page to shows me logged in i get an error message telling me i am not allowed to post because i am not registered. if i go back a page it still shows me logged in but when i hit the send reply button it tells me i am not and gives me a page where i am not logged in.
also,
the todays posts function often shows me 13 pgs but tells me the search criteria has no results midway through (usually by page 6 if it's gonna happen)

I have my CP set to NOT view avatars, and I don't see any avatars.... except Walrus! Any idea why I can always see his? Like, he's just such an imposing guy that it overrides trivialities such as options and control panels and other frou-frou?

Also.... for the love of pete, what's with Phylo's forum reply notifications ?!! The first 300 times I saw the message I felt all now it's just

never mind fixed my problem

I'm still being thrown off periodically, but since the time was changed from 15 min to 30 it isn't so bad. However, sometimes it takes me a while to compose a reply, particularly if it involves chasing up references. I've grown wise to copying the text before hitting the 'post' button, but after I logged in (again), I couldn't find the right thread again. The reply page came up blank and there was no hint in the URL which thread I tried to post to

It took a lot of digging to find it under 'today's post'. So I suppose I also have to copy the URL before making a reply, but the whole thing is getting rather involved.

 

[Oliver]

Denni, I really don't know why this is happening - it's not happening with me. Are you using cookies or do you have antivirus blocking them?

 

[Denni]

Thanks Joe (and I've signed the petition )

I thought I'd white-listed the page, but the silly script blocker is showing up a partial block.

Funny though that it hasn't happened before.

 

[katink]

I'm getting (just since today) connection-interruptions, network-issues, 204-pages, messages not getting through to post (leading sometimes to double-posting also)... Are you working on something, SJ? If not: we aren't going back to 'those good old days' I hope... Is the traffic getting too heavy again?

 

[katink]

double post, sorry

 

[Sun Vaporer]

Smokey--was only able to get on for a few minutes today--then got bumped off and keep getting error messege--Canada is reporting same problem---Thanks --Sun
