Bug Report Thread

[Jiggy]

Please report any and all technical issues you can find with our site or forums and I'll update this post and try to get cracking on them--eventually. Tell us your browser, too, since problems vary by program.

Currently-known issues:
1 - When changing text size in IE7, the main page navigation bar borders don't align correctly. main page no longer exists
2 - In PMs, your stats and levels are skewed exponentially higher than they're supposed to be (which is what they are here in the forums)
3 - This isn't technically a bug, but I can't get our forum accounts to work with WordPress as of yet. See this for details. (http://www.gf-park.com/forums/showpost.php?p=593&postcount=3) main page no longer exists
4 - Also not a bug, but certainly a problem: rotating avatar scripts probably won't work because any avatars you select are hosted directly here and I haven't found the option yet to let anyone pluck avatars from an external site. fixed
5 - Emails aren't being sent for password reset requests. fixed

I'm sorry; I hadn't realized that at some point I must have accidentally changed settings so nobody could read the content of this forum's threads without being registered and logged in. It's been fixed.

Update: Guest posting is open, as mentioned in the other thread. Consider it my way of slightly making up for the fact that a few days ago these threads couldn't even be read.

If this sounds too optimal to be true, it kind of is--but if there had to be a catch, at least there's only one. Avatars now don't work: http://www.gf-park.com/flash-in-the-pan-pandemic2/comment-page-1/#comment-41

Our avatars used to be a Haruhi and a Masked Man, and naturally I'll see if I can find a way to fix this. Still, I recognize that two accounts for the same site can be annoying, so for now this can be the lesser of two evils. (Or the greater of two goods, if you're an optimist!)

As an aside, the default avatar doesn't have to be a ._. face, so propose anything you'd like if it looks good in 60x60. Again, hopefully I'll be able to work this problem out in fairly short order and it'll just auto-resize our forum avatars, but temporary measures can be nice too.


Edit: I just had to say "at least there's only one." :P All of our posts are now mislabeled--mine are by "Admin" and Canadian's are by "Jiggy." Trying to fix this.

Edit 2: Disabled again. Until I figure out what's causing trouble with attributing posts to the wrong authors, I can't make this happen, so you'll need separate accounts for the time. Sorry for any inconvenience and confusion.

Edit 3: Looking through the support thread for this plugin (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=205388), I'm not the only one with this problem. :( The ones who manage to fix it, however, are better off with their technical skills than me...

In your spoiler's SHOW icons, every time I click on it, it'd take me to the main page (not the forum or showing your spoiler content).

Also, not sure why the reply box isn't as open immediately without having to click on either "post reply" (which will then say, Error occurred, minimum characters did not meet requirements) or the two below it, Quick Reply or Go to Advanced.

EDIT: I fixed it, I forgot I had Scripts restricted for this site.

in the Social Groups threads, the avatar gets in the way of the post:

[Jiggy]

Okay, now that's unusual since I'm pretty sure I didn't change any options related to Social Groups... I looked around vBulletin's forums and didn't see anyone else talking about it as a bug, so maybe it's supposed to be that way? I'll keep looking when I can, though.

yea, it just screws with the formatting a little, and looks awkward there..
I really don't think that's intentional.

Thanks for the assistance, Jiggy~

Using Earthbound's Moonside style, when I'm writing a post, the text should be in white (because the background is black).
The thing is that I'm having issues since yesterday to see what I'm typing, because the text is black now too.
The only way of reading it is checking with the "preview post" or selecting the text.
Now, I'm typing outside the forum because I don't want to modify the style =P

What can it be?

[Hive]

you will find absolutely none of those issues with "Prax Style". <3

[pchannn]

I don't want to modify the style =P.

[Hive]

.

my point still stands. Have fun with Earthbound style. :/

[Jiggy]

When I use the Moonside style, I do see the text as white when I'm typing or previewing my post...

But I made some changes just now that should basically make "double sure" that your text will be white. Let me know if they still don't work, because I'm surprised they weren't working from the beginning...

[pchannn]

I can see it now, thanks Jiggs

[Hive]

how can I "design" my own style, Jiggy?

I want to make a couple!

Not sure if it's an error or not but is there a timeout feature for threads?

For example, on other vBulletin forms I've used if a new thread is not viewed then it gets marked as viewed anyways. So if I log on and chose not to click on "Hives spam thread, non important stuff in here" then the next time I visit it won't be marked new anymore.

This way when I click the "new posts" link at the top of the page it will only show me new content from the last time I visited. I think with the forum split into 6 different sections now this has become more important.

[Jiggy]

Right, I've definitely seen that elsewhere... Not sure if that's a built-in option or if people have to mod the system, but I agree it could be much more important now than before. I'll check the settings today and see what I can dig up. :metool

Edit: Okay, now anything older than five days will be marked read automatically.

[Hive]

Hi,

I'd like to report a bug in the system. Namely, 10philim.

[Jiggy]

Fixed the problem Merit was having where it wouldn't send her a password reset.
