Consolidated site upgrade issues list
- Thread starter C-ya
- Start date
I liked the old feature where there was a list of who had read a particular thread, for all time, not just who's looking at it currently. Not sure anybody else shares that appreciation.

It removed implausible deniability when somebody said they didn't read one of my insightful diagnoses and went and replaced the wrong thing.MAY03LT said:

on the old forum, this was the pic of "me" in my profile... but it didn't make the impact I wanted buried away in there. apparently, as my avatar, its a big hit.The_Roadie said:Somehow, due to your avatar photo, I find it hard to take you seriously.
as far as attatchment sizes go, can we make sure it doesn't resize .gifs to postage stamp size? that is the format on alldata for their wiring diagrams and connector views, and the last forum was set to size them down to be unreadable. max width of 1000px would be ideal, pullleeeezzzzz

I see you add a line feed before you start typing your reply. I do that mostly as well. The default space between the quote box and the first line of reply isn't enough to look sylish.jimmyjam said:
The Beeb is still a goof. Why is it that a single DUI conviction will keep you from being allowed to enter Canada, but we can't manage to deport this SOB as a horrible example and keep him out.

i gotta say sometimes I'm jealous of your capacity to get so worked up over things that to me are trivial annoyances. Running my business is so stressful, usually by 10am I've run out of fucks to give about things that effect me, much less what the biebs is up to. (unless it involves selena gomez, then i'll be tweeting at both of them how I'd show her what a real man is all about, etc)

I'll move this to the main comments thread, since it would be a mod to the forum software. We haven't been using warning points at the old site or on the old software here, so it may be best to suppress the display. It's not like this is a kid-filled ricer forum that needs to be policing the children.
For now, take "0 points" as a badge of honor.

Make a few posts to get it to say "2 warning posts" or become a moderator?

The Approval Committee would be bribable, of course. And the currency you'd have to spend is hinted at in your avatar.Trios said:
I used to bet my wife (without her knowledge) when I was golfing with somebody facing a 30-40 ft. putt. Never once had to face the situation of asking her to pay off. They never made the putts!

Yes, it only happened the one time on the PC and again once on the mobile app.Jman423 said:

They better fix it, I may not be feeling as generous the further I get from payday.Robbabob said:
Would also like to say the mobile app performed flawlessly today.

Anyone else have issues switching from instant notifications to daily digest? I switched this morning and still getting emails for every post in subscribed threads. Is there another setting I need to switch or is this an issue.

We'll add it to the goody list for the near future.The_Roadie said:
I'm aware of this. The correct favicon is there, it's just that the site is still showing the cached version from when I setup the portal software. I'll flush the cache out at some point to resolve this problem.SBUBandit said:
Funny you should say that, because each time I see your avatar, it makes me want to hit my computer screenjimmyjam said:
You don't, I do. On the list, just lower down.rcam81 said:
This "could" be due to the fact that some notification changes only update in the database with a scheduled cron job that occurs every xx hours. See if it corrects itself once you've given it time. If not, I'll add it to the list of things to investigate.HARDTRAILZ said:
On the bottom of the forum main page, in the location as our previous software.qsp01 said:
Yeah, I noticed that when we were testing out the software. It wasn't a big enough feature loss to consider refusing the software.Mooseman said:
Unfortunately, the subscription system in this new software is so advanced and feature packed that I have to spend a decent amount of time to set it up correctly. I've been working on putting out fires and investigating issues, so I haven't been able to dedicate the time to getting it setup yet. We appreciate the interest and we will take care of it as soon as we can.qsp01 said:

Couple of config issues I haven't seen noted in this thread...
When using the reply to topic at the bottom of a thread screen, when click in the box to start typing the formatting bar comes up. No problem with that but there is an expand toolbar icon that has a popup that says expand toolbar. Click it and the bar collapses, the icon then says expand toolbar and then properly tracks what the button does.
Could not paste text into a PM popup.
On the vB software you could click on a screen name and get a popup window with several options. Don't see that here.
Quote isn't bringing in the selected item to the replay to this topic box. (IE 11)
Just logged in from FF and quote appears to work there, I see the quoted text in the reply box.

I can't quote things either. When I click on quote, it shoots me down to the "Reply to this topic" box, but the box is empty and I just have the blinking cursor. Is this just something going on with IE? I don't use Chrome or FF.

Sounds like an IE issue. It works with all other browsers that we have tested. It even works with older IE, its just the newest version. IE is such a pain the arse.Boricua SS said:

Dmanns posted this on a idferent page, but I see it being relevant here:
I have also noticed when doing a Trailblazer/Envoy search in Google and it lists links to different threads on GMTNation, when clicking on the links the page comes up with "404 Page Not Found". It did that for every link I clicked on. The is a GMTNation Resource Portal listed at the bottom of the page that will direct you to the new site. Hopefully anyone searching for help will click on the link, although it will still take them to the main page of the site and not to the thread they were looking for.
How would this issue be resolved with the Google search, just curious?
I learned a search string from The Roadie "pick a topic site:GMTNation.com". All relevant links come up in the Google list, but they all go to 404. Is this something that Google can actually learn the new location?

Google has to relearn the entire site. >100K posts. We see it snaking around every hour with multiple search bots, but it's gonna take them a while.Robbabob said:
