The Bug List

[SuffolkDesigns]

I have had emails from VSHosting, Handson Group and Macmyday this morning to say they can't access anything or post anything.

Also I can mod the forums but the link to the Mod control panel has gone

Rob

I just registered again and the new username allows me to post

 

[dagr]

I find it a fair bit slower than before with the login box "popping up" in the middle of the screen for a second or two at every refresh or page change.

While the forum looks a bit more modern, I find it a bit less obvious to read. Has the useful width been reduced?

(FireFox 1.5x)

 

[Tin]

I too get the login box hanging around for it's breakfast in the middle of my screen. I had no problem with 'quick reply' however the edit function did not work at all. I'll try it again. I've just noticed that when I add an icon to my message it pops up alongside the right hand edge of the reply title. Will post and see where it ends up. Cheers guys.

Oh... I also noticed that the forum doesn't allow for animated gifs as an avatar.

 

[Ozzy]

I have a few messages from folks saying they can login but then do not have permission to do anything. I know where to look to fix this, but just need to work out what to change to fix it

I have intentionally disabled the facility for animated avatars as I did not want lots of people having them distracting from the messages.

 

[Ozzy]

Fixed - anyone who was in the group "Director" had zero permissions to do anything but now you have a bit more PM space and facilities to do a bit extra than the "Executives" who have a few more permissions and storage than the "Entrepreneurs". No-one has made it to Chairman yet though.

 

[Tin]

I'd like to be considered for being Chairman Ozzy if you don't mind, sounds quite posh! :wink:

Getting a 404 not found when clicking the forum leaders link on the home page:

[Ozzy]

OK I have no idea how to fix that one so will call the developer in a moment.
I also stand corrected, we have 7 Chairpersons

I just need to work out what level of privalegdes to give them

 

[Ravenfire]

Thanks working for me now.

 

[Juvanescence]

Mostly the same errors as the others..

• Slow load
• Ads not showing randomly, getting three of the same
• Footer just keeps on scrolling

Im not a big fan of the custom "new thread" graphic on the homepage, but thats just me nit-picking.

Viewing on Firefox for the Mac.

 

[Ravenfire]

What browser are you using? I haven't had any problems like that with mine and finding that its loading quickly as well

 

[epiphany]

My Bug report is as follows:

No errors

Oh dear though where have smilies gone!

 

[Ozzy]

Slow load ... am not going to optimise DB until all changes needed to fix bugs are done.
Ads ... to be honest this is last on my list, so long as Duane's ad is showing I'm happy (so is he).
Footer ... uh? Please elaborate

 

[Juvanescence]

Well it is stuck bottom right, and goes off the page..

Its not a big problem, I can live with it.

Also the smilies aren't working..

 

[Ozzy]

I fixed the smilies last night, although the code for smilies is different on VB than it was on phpBB... so does not make a smilie like it used to.

Easily changed via the admin panel

I couldn't get in at all earlier but emailed and that's been sorted - thank you.

I get no icons at all in Firefox 1.5.0.2 Windows XP Home SP2 - e.g. the icons that show whether there are any new posts. In the New Posts area I get a text link to go to the latest message.

It all works beautifully in IE 6.0.

Andy - the facility is there <smile>

You might need to go into your user control panel and select the advanced wysiwyg option then it can be done and easier than the last forums

[Ozzy]

Its still here

 

[Coding Monkey]

You two beat me to it. Damnit

 

[cjd]

Strange that no-one else has reprted it but I can't sign in using Firefox v1.5.0.2 I have no problem with IE 7 beta

 

[KM-Tiger]

.......... but I can't sign in using Firefox v1.5.0.2 .........

Can't reproduce that here.

Firefox 1.5.0.2 Win2K SP4

A Firefox setting?

 

[cjd]

Don't know but XP & Firefox just won't work for me.

I'd clear my cookies but I'd lose all my auto sign-ins. Anyone know the UKBC cookie?

 

[KM-Tiger]

Anyone know the UKBC cookie?

In Firefox: Tools>Options>Privacy>Cookies>View Cookies

will take you to a dialog where you can find the ukbusinessforums.co.uk cookies and delete as appropriate.

 

[cjd]

thanks but deleting cookies didn't solve it - obviously some other problem

 

[clairemackaness]

I miss the old UKBF, this one hurts my eyes

 

[Ravenfire]

What about clearing your cache. I had a problem on my site a while back with FF and had to clear everything!

 

[dagr]

Apart from the initial page which lists the forums, I couldn't access anything from home (XP with FFox or IE6). I got many errors on the page, including "couldn't run vbulletin_init" and "couldn't run vbmenu_(something???)". It works fine from this W2000 computer. I tried deleting all cookies and flushing the cache, but no result.

 

[cjd]

I eventually got it working. To do it I:

1.close ukb browser
2. delete bookmark
3. delete cookies
4 clear cache

phew

 

[Deleted member 3454]

Thanks, CJD.

I followed your instructions and it worked - the only thing I hadn't done previously was remove the bookmark.

 

[10Yetis]

thanks everyone.

I cannot send PM's using Opera 6.03 and my MAC IE is completely disabled

I'm using Firefox on a Mac G4 with OSX. I find the whole thing very "jumpy" It loads in bits before settling down and when I go back to the Forum Index I find that whole chunks are missing. Sometimes it lists only the top five categories, sometimes the top ten. I have to reload the page to get the full listing up.

 

[Coding Monkey]

Whenever I read a topic, it marks it as read, yet the forum remains telling me there's a new post.

same here

 

[Ozzy]

Yeah, I see that! I'll mention it to the designer (who has since joined the forum and takes part on here)

I was trying to search for a members post today and it just kept saying page not found.
