TFP Upgrade Notes/ Bugs - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Halx · 06-03-2006, 12:51 AM

Ok, currently, the only styles you canuse are 1) the default plain boring style, which is fully functional and 2) the "Gant" style which is not fuctional... dont report bugs regarding it.

Please be as descriptive as possible when listing bugs you encounter.

usrbinboy · 06-03-2006, 02:00 AM

Wow, it's so different. What did the upgrade actually do? Like, what new features should we see now, etc?

Super Model · 06-03-2006, 02:29 AM

Wow! This is radical! I like it Halx!

NoSoup · 06-03-2006, 02:33 AM

I think for the first time in all the years since I've started coming to the TFP, this is the first time I have ever seen it in a different style...

Frosstbyte · 06-03-2006, 03:28 AM

I can only hope more styles become available soon. ::cough cough:: dark cloud ::cough cough:: The whole white and blue thing is too weird for me to understand in my drunken stupor.

My avatar has rexed.

And I have a "0% warn" which my wife will tell you (in an instant) that can't possibly be right.

snowy · 06-03-2006, 04:20 AM

Wow, lovin' the donate tab. Looks good to me, Halx, but yeah, can't wait for more styles.

Grasshopper Green · 06-03-2006, 04:33 AM

I switched to Gant...it seems functional to me if you speak French

I'm sure this is a change we'll all get used to and appreciate!

ratbastid · 06-03-2006, 04:33 AM

"Off the Wayside" and "Links Board" posts are showing up in "New Posts". Didn't useta.

Yeah and I don't know if that's supposed to happen, but I'd rather it didn't, given a choice.

Lady Sage · 06-03-2006, 06:17 AM

Oooooo pretty.... light and fluffy. Me likie!

Redlemon · 06-03-2006, 06:28 AM

In the Journals, I went to read a "private buddy list" post of someone else's that I used to have access to. I saw the thread name listed, but when I selected it, it didn't display. While it is possible I have been banned from that thread, it is more likely that the "buddy lists" were reset. There's probably no way to fix that, but people should be aware of that.

The new board "feels" more solid, somehow, I don't know why, but I like it.

bobby · 06-03-2006, 06:29 AM

well,I guess change is inevitable........will look around and see what's up.

................xoxoxoo

I'm back....can't post pics in threads in titty/wayside....will take words but not pics??....no smileys either?? xoxoxoo

bobby · 06-03-2006, 06:53 AM

I did like the dark better but this is ok.....I tryed to post a pic on the titty board(suprise-suprise!)....and it didn't work,words showed but no pic??..

can you PM me with the details?

amonkie · 06-03-2006, 07:59 AM

I did notice a "Buddy Journal" icon on the bottom of the Journals page. When I clicked on it, it had my general buddies for the site. I did not have any journal buddies so I was not surprised my journal buddy slots were empty - is that also the case for you?

silent_jay · 06-03-2006, 08:02 AM

Looks cool, new colors are a trip, not used to it being so bright, my poor high eyes.

Dilbert1234567 · 06-03-2006, 08:50 AM

The lavender is soothing... too soothing...

Looks great halx, great job.

james t kirk · 06-03-2006, 10:13 AM

Where did the Regional headers go?

Like "Tilted Canada" for example, land of weed and eh

ngdawg · 06-03-2006, 10:16 AM

While in chat, found out a couple of things through trial and error, for those having browser issues.
Older versions of IE may not allow file uploads, ie; 'attach files'. If you can, upgrade/update your IE, but an upgrade will only take if you have SP2-if you don't, you're basically screwed from getting IE7.
If you don't have it yet, get Mozilla Firefox and set it up to take TFP cookies and a password, but for those two or three who use AOL, it won't use FF, it uses IE only and no amount of coaxing will do otherwise.

Dilbert1234567 · 06-03-2006, 10:33 AM

Operating System: XP SP2 (32 bit)
Internet Browser: Firefox
Version of Browser 1.5.0.4

2 for you, i cant add smillies or any other buttons when making a message i can do the codeing manualy, but just clicking does not work.

second

on the map page my text included a single quote (') when it is displayed it has an escape charactor befor it (\')

My location

CaliLivChick · 06-03-2006, 10:40 AM

Where's the Chat? It could go under Quick Links if you don't have room for it in the header bar...

ubertuber · 06-03-2006, 10:41 AM

OS 10.4.6
Firefox 1.5.0.4

I'm having trouble with the search function - both the one in the nav bar and the "search this forum". They're not returning results for threads I know exist.

Halx · 06-03-2006, 11:02 AM

I'm taking a break from bug fixing for a few hours... this stuff is exhausting.

CaliLivChick · 06-03-2006, 11:42 AM

Would stickying this thread for awhile be an option as well? Or is stickying permanent?

ratbastid · 06-03-2006, 12:03 PM

Thanks for your work, Hal. Glad to see it's going so well!

snowy · 06-03-2006, 12:05 PM

Tried to report a double post and it told me I did not have permission to access this page.

XPSP1
Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.4

jujueye · 06-03-2006, 12:46 PM

Thanks for the work, as always Hal. We all appreciate the work you do for us.
It is a nice change after seeing Cloudy for many years. I had to double-check the window name to see where I had ended up!

PayUp · 06-03-2006, 03:38 PM

I kinda like it. Does take a few minutes to get used to.

What is this warn %

Elphaba · 06-03-2006, 03:52 PM

On the plus side, "View First Unread" works! It was usually off by several posts under the older version, and sometimes didn't show at all.

Yeah, I know...Elph is a tad too obsessive

Something new. If you've been really naughty you might receive a formal warning from a mod to straighten up. The percentage tells you how close to the edge you are to being banned.

I was amazed that I was at 0%. I have had my share of yellow warnings.

GoldenOuroboros · 06-03-2006, 04:04 PM

*walks around dazed*
Logged on this morning and almost went blind xD

Look forward to some new styles when they're up and running

Toaster126 · 06-03-2006, 05:09 PM

The new posts button on the top bar is returning with the links from the Titty Board. It didn't do that before, and I would personally like it better if it didn't; it seems like others also have that idea.

Those that use the titty board can browse that without having to check for updates like those that are following the posts on the text part of the board.

If this was changed for a reason I would like to know why.

fresnelly · 06-03-2006, 05:32 PM

Consider this another vote to omit Erogenous Zone threads from the New Posts list.

Thanks for taking on all this work!
