Please post all forum bugs here

[Baldrick]

I have fixed the one that it sometimes says No Posts on the main index page.

Other bugs that I'm working on:

• username that doesn't show...they have username with beginning of < and one have an username with no username.... fixed
• the users online seems sometime flip out....logs the same users as several hundred users. fixed...maybe...NOT

[Truman]

I think there is still the problem with the "last edited.." line...

[Baldrick]

It is not a bug though, that is just how it works in phpbb2....but I maybe will do something about it later.

I stuck this up under "Off Topics"

I've noticed there is a problem with multiple posts. I to have accidently done this.

If you get a white screen after clicking submit don't go back and reclick the submit button again. Go back and click on the VCD Help Icon then if you posted a new topic you will see it. If you posted a reply go to the topic you replied t and you will probly see your post. VCD's server seems to have an issue sometimes.

There are times when clicking the submit only a whitescreen comes up so there are some who made the same mistake as I and clicked the refresh or backbutton and clicked submit again. Looks like a server overload at times.

Thanks for all your hardwork!!

Welp, for me,

whenever I post, (cuase I do realize and catch this) I get the
NO POST or soemthing error message and what I do is, after I see it,
I just close the window I posted cause I know the data was posted
after all.

my bug #2:
----------
someitmes, when i open a link to view new post via "latest active
forum topics", I will get the gray
page (blank) nothing else.
sometimes, I have to click on the refresh button, other times, it
just wont display the window contents.

#3:
just slow at times. but, to be expected

#4: R da BOLT and ITALICS codes gone 4ever???? I don't understand.
I see other peoples posts w/ bold
and even large fonts - never seen
that before. I use to use the
"" combo to name one.

[Baldrick]

the server has a very short "page load timeout" and when the traffic is very high it often causes either blank pages or messed up pages. If I increase the page load timeout the server will instead be incredible slow. I hope to fix this by getting another server only for the forum...now is everythin on one server.

bold

italic

[Baldrick]

I added a better anti double post system....if the post was added and if you hit reload again when you for example got a blank page it will say if you already have posted it and forward you to the message.

[damnim]

Thankyou

By the way, whats that pirate holding up?

[Baldrick]

[damnim]

Looks like a pheasant.

Thanks,

Curious

[vhelp]

Hay, Baldrick... that does look kindof like you.
...scruffy look'n and all pirately like, ...ya bumm! he, he.....

Now, about your forum, ...shape up or ShIp out!! ArGgGggg!

[damnim]

Hey Vhelp

I thought the bum I mean pirate was holding up one of those wineskins.

Couldn't quite figure that one out. Wineskins being out of season and all 8)

[pinoy2201]

Baldrick for the time being while your searching for a new host for the forum why dot you put the forum back to the dvdrhelp.com server so the vcdhelp server wont get all the stress

[Baldrick]

it's too expensive.

[d4n13l]

Whenever I recieve a private message, I always get an email from you (baldrick@vcdhelp.com). I know there is an option in preferences to turn this off, but I have turned it off. The strange thing is that I get the email sent to another account that I have, NOT the email I gave vcdhelp in my profile. However, I do use that email address to contact you (not the email I give in my profile) sometimes. Perhaps I have two email addresses in your address book or something. Anyway, I dont want to recieve an email everytime I get a PM off someone. Could you disable it for me entirely?

[Baldrick]

You only have one email registered and are you sure that you disabled the "Notify on new Private Message:" and nothing else because currently is your settings enabled? Maybe doesnt your settings get saved when you submit the profile...but it should because you have changed the avatar...

It works to good for me to disable and enable the pm notify.

[d4n13l]

It ok now. My bad...

[resnullius]

I know it's not a bug , it just i liked the option where we saw who had posted the message not just the last person to answer...

[Baldrick]

in the latest posts?

[resnullius]

yes. (just to make things clear i mean the person who started the thread)
by the way i suppose you know the search doesn't work?

[Baldrick]

the search is back but I will close it some parts of the days when the traffic is very high.

i could add the author but then it will be too many columns so the subject column will be on 3-4 lines=UGLY....maybe if I remove the views.

[KingJohn]

Is the "I can delete messages" bug back ?

I just made a test post then deleted it

[Baldrick]

No bug, I have just forgot to change back some forum permissions when I converted the forum.

[KingJohn]

Why is the poll available "randomly" Tonight as you know I was able to set one up again, a few minuets ago it was available again !!

John

[Baldrick]

what?

[KingJohn]

Pardon ?

I said why is the "Poll" function randomly available, when making a new post you are able to set one up, then I guess you close it and remove the function. But then the next day I see it available again.

[Baldrick]

dont know...haven't changed anything in the forum the last days.

[Baldrick]

and I dont get any randomly available polls.

[KingJohn]

Just went to my old test post, the "delete post" was available..

Well I wont use them, but thought you would like to know...

[Baldrick]

try delete it.
