Fred Miranda Offline Admin Image Upload: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Hi everyone, If you encounter a bug in the current forum code, please post your findings here. Thank you! Mar 14, 2008 at 11:45 PM

James Baron Offline Image Upload: Off Forum bug? Post it here :-) Scrolling down a forum, you find a thread you'd like to peruse. Instead of just clicking on the link, I Apple-click to open the thread in a new window rather than go back using browser buttons. What happens is that the thread opens in a new window, but the forum window that you clicked from loads the thread, too, so you still have to click the back button. This happened when I first joined a few months back, then stopped & worked properly shortly thereafter. Since the upgrade it's doing the same thing. Problem repeatable in both Camino (1.5.4) & Safari (2.0.4) on Mac OS 10.4. Would also be nice to have a "It's been XX minutes/hours/days since you last visited" (a la POTN) notification somewhere for one reason: It would be nice to know how far back into the classifieds I'd need to go to get to the posts that had been added since the last time I was on. Thank you. Mar 26, 2008 at 06:06 PM

jamesf99 Offline Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Hi Fred, I don't think this is a bug so much as possibly an oversight. I just posted an ad in the B&S and forgot to say "WTB" so it went to "FS". I couldn't change it in edit mode so I had to delete and start over. Can we make that field editable too, and possibly add a "sold" option in the drop down and that could be used when the transaction is completed? The last thing, it would be great to be able to see only the WTB, FS, etc. perhaps a check box that limits the result set to what the user wants. Maybe? Possibly? Someday? Mar 29, 2008 at 02:30 PM

Lytton Offline Image Upload: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Is there any reason I can no longer view the "Buzz" thread any more? Every time I try it says I'm not logged in or do not have permission. Please advise. Cheers, -Lytton Mar 31, 2008 at 04:04 AM

Hi James, I believe we should be able to edit our first posts and change the FS/WTB/FT/OA initials. The default it indeed "FS". On the "Sold" idea, I'm thinking on adding a "Sold" button. When we press this button, the thread would look grayed out on the board page (And Sold would be added as an initial)...Still thinking about this one... Regarding being able to see all WTB, FS, etc...That is a good idea. Right now you may be able to do that by using "Quick Search" on the bottom of the page. For example, if you enter "FS" or "WTB" for the subject search, you will see all topics on that. Best. Fred Mar 31, 2008 at 09:43 PM

Ariel Bravy Online Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) I'm using Firefox. I've seen it happen with both FF2 and FF3 beta 4. I am using a special plugin that specifically breaks URLs on FM. Should I disable that? Perhaps it is something odd that happens only on my end which is why no one else has brought it up. I'll check in IE next time it occurs.

Ariel Bravy Online Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Just noticed it happening again in the Landscape board so I tried it in IE and noticed the same issue. Here's a screen capture of the issue showing the bad link in the status bar. Etadam wrote: Any userscripts.org like script/plugin running? Nope Apr 01, 2008 at 04:49 AM

John Patrick Offline Image Upload: Off Forum bug? Post it here :-) I've got a problem searching. I'm looking for "T&I" posts (team and individual, the posed youth sports stuff) but a search on "T&I" (no quotes) turns up nothing. Instead, I have to search on "T & I" (note the spaces), which gives me some posts, but when I try to go to the second or third pages, I get a "search string too short" message. Any help with this? John Apr 06, 2008 at 08:22 PM

Hopefully you catch this message in time to see it in action, Fred. Ariel, Check and see if your issue has been resolved. Please let me know. Fred Apr 08, 2008 at 04:26 AM

Jonathan H Offline Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) I think I just received administrative access.... I did a search (using Google the Forums), clicked on my chosen link, and all that popped up in the new URL was a drop down menu asking which of the following topics did I want to merge? There were about 10-12 topics, none of them (that I could recognize) were my own. I probably should have taken a screen cap and saved the URL, but it slipped my mind. Apr 10, 2008 at 02:57 PM

Rob-Bob Offline Image Upload: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Bug? NOT really a "Bug" just a nit- I wish once a few posts were added to a topic, that we could still go back and delete our older ones. i just wanted to correct a post, but seeing that I had inadvertntly made a second post, I wanted to delete a post, because of a line that I added in the next(correct) post. Looks like my(our) only option is to just change the incorrect post, and leave it, and the 2nd/3rd, ect there. Sorry, Bob Edited by Rob-Bob on Jun 10, 2008 at 09:23 AM GMT Apr 11, 2008 at 09:17 PM

mdbassman Offline Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Posted a "bump" on Sunday...never appeared in B&S at all at beginning of list. I did have a post that was a "sent pm" within 7 hours of my bump so does this eliminate my daily bump? Dan Apr 13, 2008 at 03:17 PM

Wickedfn4u Offline Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) This might be the same, I posted something for free on the freebie thread in B/S and it still is at the 3 days old mark. Thanks Apr 15, 2008 at 02:24 AM

Dan Hi mdbassman, Your topic didn't go to the top because of a 60-day restriction...(Replied topics older than 60 days do not go to the top of the page) The topic was created early February. So it can’t go to the top of the first page anymore (and no bump button). I'm creating a FAQ for the Buy and Sell board since many new features were already added and many new ones will be implemented this month. Apr 15, 2008 at 02:52 PM

The thread in question is older than 60 days (Freebies). The OP (You) can't make the thread go to the top by replying to it. However, if someone other than the OP replies, the topic will make to the top. I hope this helps. Best, Fred Apr 15, 2008 at 03:02 PM

Wickedfn4u Offline Buy and Sell: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Thanks Fred, any chance to make that a sticky? Apr 15, 2008 at 03:35 PM

Fred Miranda Offline Admin Image Upload: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Wickedfn4u wrote: Thanks Fred, any chance to make that a sticky? Yes, I will make a sticky explaing all Buy and Sell changes along with a big FAQ with images, etc... New changes on the pipeline: 1) OP can't edit the initials "FS, FT, WTB, OA" 2) We will have a "Sold", "Traded", or "Bought” button" showing next to the topic title (Showing for the OP only). When clicking on this button, an initial will be added before the title. For example: "Sold: Canon 5D" or "Traded: 24mm f/1.4L". The topic will be locked and its link will turn "gray" in viewboard,. Like that, member can easily identify which topics are already Sold, Traded or Bought...(For FS, FT or WTB respectively) 3) Feedback system. Members will be able to leave feedback to other members. The current feedback thread will be migrated to this new system (As much as possible) and then locked or deleted. 4) You probably have seen the Bump button and counter (They are located next to the subscribe button). You must be the OP to see that. Basically the OP can only bump his topic every 12 hours (Meanwhile a counter will show how many hours left until the Bump button reappears) 5) Members can only post a NEW topic on the Buy and sell board, every 12 hours.

Thanks for the update Fred but the "reply to" was a response to a post a few days old not more than 60. Also it was the "Sunday- 1day bump" that did not move the ad to the top of the column. The ad stayed in the last position from Satrurday. It showed that it was updated time wise (8 seconds) but remained in the previous days time period. I used the "replied to" to see if that would bump it to the top of the Sunday page. If I understand your remarks correctly. My ad was created April 6th not in February. Thanks again!

Dan You were right Dan. Your post that was not 60 days old (I was referring to someone else). To answer your question about replies and the bump button. Once you get a reply to your Buy and Sell topic, the Bump counter is reset (That can be from you or any other member replying to your thread) Fred Apr 16, 2008 at 09:39 PM

John Patrick Offline Image Upload: Off Forum bug? Post it here :-) Wow, lots of things went bye-bye with the last change. Page numbers on the thread list are gone. Window's name is now "FM Forums" instead of "Thread Name - FM Forums" In addition to the broken stuff, you can't see your B&S rating when viewing any profile, either. I had to post a reply on B&S just to see that mine is a paltry 2 (although I've purchased at least 9 things). Oh, and my Search issue as above still is broken. John Apr 17, 2008 at 10:35 PM

Fred Miranda Offline Admin Image Upload: On Forum bug? Post it here :-) Wow, lots of things went bye-bye with the last change. We got some bugs because the code was optimized. They are all fixed now. Page numbers on the thread list are gone. Fixed! Window's name is now "FM Forums" instead of "Thread Name - FM Forums" Fixed! In addition to the broken stuff, you can't see your B&S rating when viewing any profile, either. I had to post a reply on B&S just to see that mine is a paltry 2 (although I've purchased at least 9 things). That is actually how it was designed. The feedback ticker only shows on Buy and Sell topics. Oh, and my Search issue as above still is broken. I've got a problem searching. I'm looking for "T&I" posts (team and individual, the posed youth sports stuff) but a search on "T&I" (no quotes) turns up nothing. Instead, I have to search on "T & I" (note the spaces), which gives me some posts, but when I try to go to the second or third pages, I get a "search string too short" message. Looking in to it...Thanks for the feedback. Fred Apr 18, 2008 at 08:10 PM
