Hey All...

Please post any troubles you are having with the new Forum here. If something is not working, I would like to know about it. :wink:

We have only just got this new forum up, and there are still many things to sort out. So please be patient as we get to all the issues one by one.

I just hope that this won't be the most used topic..!!!!!! :shock:

i found a bug.. a real cheeky one that i could have kept to myself but i decided not to out of the goodness of my heart.. i found out a way to get free opel dollars... if you go back and edit a post, you get a free opel.. with out having to actually do a new post.. so might be something you can look into..

with all the opel dollars i could have gained :mrgreen: i think i should receive some sort of donations... :mrgreen:

If you can't fix that bug then you should change it so that when you edit a post it puts a footer in eg "[edited 13/04/2004 6:55pm]" I think Corsasport does this. So if anyone sees a post that has been edited a few too many times you can catch the culprit :wink:

I found a better one so nyer! :P

If you add a post you get a dollar.
Delete it and you get another dollar... and nobody (well maybe admins) will know you are doing anything because there is no evidence!

It's a known bug. A few have already commented on this. :roll:

Currently the forum is set to http://svr58.ehostpros.com instead of http://opelaus.com. The reason for this is that dns servers take a while to update changes, and for a week it was easier to have a domain (ehostpros) that resolves properly.

I need to allow a little time for dns servers to update. Hopefully when I change the forum to opelaus, all will be fixed. :D

i dont know if this is a bug, but the thumbnails in the album section are very off colour, like Turblue's SRiT looks grey or brown in the thumbnail and blue in the photo. Anything you can do about this?

Also, can you increase the upload limit in the album section to maybe 100,000 instead of 50,000?

I don't know if its just me, but for the last two days I have had troubles with the site showing me new posts.

It knows how many new posts were made since I last logged on, but when I click the link to view them (main page, on the right) it doesn't show me any threads.

I've removed all my opelaus.com cookies and starting again to see if that works.

Turblue
15th April 2004, 06:00 PM
Ok......

1: DrDevil... I have noticed this. No ideas yet why....
2: Glenn... Might still be a dns thing....
3: Paul... I changed the config on the forum yesterday. Might be why....

Please keep me posted guys.!!

My problem seems to have been fixed by switching from Netscape to Internet Explorer. <sigh> now I have to put up with popups from this site and can't use tabbed browsing.

another bug

the chat button you added - it is underlined and none of the other links are.

Turblue
17th April 2004, 09:05 PM
Sorry....

Not a new one. I added that link for Kid_Sri. But I did it as straight html code, not php. That's why the chat has an underline, unlike the other links which are done in php. 8)

The forum doesn't like mentioning the word Frankie

(that's F-r-a-n-k-i-e without the dashes)

oh, and somethow I am gaining levels in the RPG section very fast :D

Aus-SRi
30th April 2004, 03:05 PM
in regards to RPG i changed it, coz the setting was on like 1000 before anything changed, which im my opinion was kind of useless! so i changed it to a lower number and therefore that is why you will be noticiing your levels gaining quicker than previously

Turblue
30th April 2004, 03:23 PM

Hi guys only way round it for me is to disable script debugging popups in IE

DrDevil
10th May 2004, 10:15 PM
i dont know if this is a bug, but the thumbnails in the album section are very off colour, like Turblue's SRiT looks grey or brown in the thumbnail and blue in the photo. Anything you can do about this?

Also, can you increase the upload limit in the album section to maybe 100,000 instead of 50,000?

the thumbnails are fix at my end now

whatever you did worked - thanks Turblue

Do you by chance use a pop up killer? Google toolbar is notorius for doing this when pop ups work in a particular fashion. The work around is actually to disable debugging in IE.

Cheers
Ben

Turblue
11th May 2004, 07:53 AM
Hmm... this debug thing is interesting. I'll have a sniff around and see what I can find.

DrDevil.... I changed the thumbnail settings and flushed the cache...

With the moderation of explicit words, can you use '?' as the wildcard rather than '*' ?

ie f?ck / f?ck* not f*ck

as I just had f-l-i-c-k-e-d moderated!

Turblue
12th May 2004, 01:41 PM
From what I have read, the * is the only wildcard. It is a pain I know.

One has to ask the question. Why do we need filters..??? :shock:

Sorry Glenda!

Wayne i can see where your coming from with asking "Why do we need filters?" as we know what people are saying anyway...

F*CK is not f-a-c-k; f-e-c-k; f-i-c-k or f-o-c-k

This is just my 2cents worth and flame me if you will,
but couldnt users (and i include myself in this) just be more considerate with the language they are using and remember that some people are offended by this language and/or others view it from work so be sensitive to these needs...

just a suggestion, but and then we wouldnt need a filter!!!
