Official upgrade issue thread!

[Overread]

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.

That would appear to be an external issue since the image are not on the host site (photobucket) any more, or if they are they've been moved into a new folder which has changed the photos original address (and thus the original links don't work).

You'd be best to contact Mishel as she's in charge of that (and it seems its her photobucket account that is used to host the images).

I'd just like to say at this point that I loooove that we can now edit private messages. So kudos to that!

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

What's a lert?

 

[Borad]

The only thing I don't like about alerts is the number disappears when you hover over it, then the alert button moves to the right and then half the time I'm not hovering over "alert" anymore so the alert details don't appear. I have no problem with lerts though.

What's a lert?

lert

(n) A small furry woodland creature that senses are always very intensely attuned to its surroundings.

You must be a lert.

To be a lert you must be constantly aware of the things around you.

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.

Where are you guys seeing this? If I click on a thread title from the "ACtive Topics" page, the "New Posts" page, or from within a forum it takes me to the first post of the thread unless I've already seen the thread in which case it takes me to the last unread post..

However if I click on the "Latest: ..." link beside a forum name on the homepage then it will take me to the last post, but that is expected as it's the "latest" ..

Could someone upload a screengrab circling a link that this is happening on?

I believe Kris just fixed the tab issue.

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

Hi mmaria,
The online/offline does work, however the privacy setting you are unchecking deals with what other users see. It will still show you as online to yourself, but if you were to ask other users what they see, or open a secondary browser (or incognito window in Chrome) you would notice that your status show offline even when you are online in another browser. The privacy doesn't limit you, just others from seeing you..

I missed the first bit concerning your alerts. What's the problem with the alerts?

What's the problem with the alerts?

I'm not being notified when someone likes something I posted (yeah... that does happen sometimes ) I get some likes but not all

I found out about some likes when I'm revisiting a thread, not because I got an alert

If I knew how to do the screengrab with the circle I would. I click on new posts, then click on a thread title. It immediately takes me to the very end of the replies. Including if it's a multiple page thread. Like the leader board thread. I had never clicked that thread, it took me to page 7.

I think I know what's happening.

On my first visit I click on "new posts". When I'm done I click on "mark forms read".

I come back later and click on "new posts" again. When I click on an older thread title I have Never read, it takes me to the last post. That is the issue....

If a thread was created in between my last and current visit, clicking on the title does take me to post #1.

Cheers, Don

Ah yes, that makes sense.. When you click "mark forums read", as far as the software is concerned you have read the threads (even if you actually haven't) :/ ..

 

[Don Kondra]

This is the ONLY forum I frequent where this happens...

It is a PITA but really, it's only a couple more clicks

Cheers, Don

OK, get it now. Hate it, but get it.

Regardless of whether the posts have been marked read or not, clicking on the TITLE of a topic thread should ALWAYS take one to the first post and not the last. No other forum software I've ever used or installed has EVER behaved in the manner that this software does. It's just, well, wrong.
