Official upgrade issue thread!

[veraderock]

One thing I've noticed, it seems that Alerts only remain valid if you always click on them; sometimes it seems that if you ignore an alert (or don't follow through the click) the site drops that thread from future alerts; so you end up missing new content in threads.

This is correct and by design. The idea is to avoid sending out a bunch of emails unnecessarily and avoid the server getting labelled as a source of spam. If you follow the subscription notice then the last visit time for you within that thread gets updated. If there are more posts made after you've been away from the thread you will be notified. But if you don't visit the page the system won't keep sending you emails as a busy threads could result in potentially hundreds of emails being sent to you..

Veraderock is there a way to split the notifications onsite and by email?
VB always showed subscribed thread updates even if you didn't look at them, but didn't spam the email system. Surely there must be some way to split forum notification and email notification so that even if the software drops the email updates it still shows a site update.

These little fixes are all well and good, but…

Isn't it in the fridge?

I'm not getting all alerts... and I love alerts!

Check your settings. I've also noticed they hide after some time.

 

[mmaria]

settings are ok...
likes f.e, I don't get them all... If I go again on that particular thread I would notice that someone liked my post

I have 10 likes on posted picture but I received alerts for 7 and a half of them I saw when I went to "show all". In that same thread I got one like on my post but it didn't show up.
In most cases I find out about likes when I revisit some thread

Sounds like a bug undocumented feature to me. Hopefully the admins and developers are still looking at this thread and trying to figure things out.

This sounds funny we'll see...

until then... Thank you!

I appreciate my Alerts settings being adjusted, glad to have that taken care of.

I'm having the same problem as Maria, I can't tab down to Password when logging in.

It would be a help to have the right column resized but it's still just in the way; it was better at the bottom so it could be looked at when someone wants to see points leaders, etc.

And I noticed at the bottom it says About tpf .net (dot net??). It's not yet highlighted so maybe that's still to be corrected/added, wondered if anyone else noticed.

I believe Kris just fixed the tab issue.

What's the ETA on fixing the "clicking on thread title" takes you to the newest post instead of the start/post #1 ?

Cheers, Don

Can this please be addressed? I've mentioned it a few times and so have others. Its especially annoying on multi page threads. It will take me to the last page even though I have not clicked on the thread previously.

yeah, tab is fixed

Who'll take care of my alerts? Again, I just found out about more likes/agrees and similar because I was browsing not because I got them... it's annoying... I like alerts

and also... online/offline status option... what's with that? because apparently it's the same when I check the box or unchecked it

Not sure if this was mentioned or if it's worth fixing (maybe reports of fixed issues should be deleted to keep this thread shorter) but many of the photos in the TPF Challenge threads, such as this one, don't show.
