Bugs and weird things wanted! - Spot a forum bug? Report it here

[Dan]

Okay,

As far as I know, we're pretty much fully working now and on the new domain and software. I have a few things I still need to setup and install. But I'm now taking bug reports. So if you see anything weird going on, or something not working properly. Please report it. Either in this forum in it's own new thread, or in this actual thread. I'll pick up either.

Can we get rid of the 5 word response?

Totally weird, type your 5 word post, then edit to say x1 word and it works. I did it with a full stop earlier

Ok.

When Iclick on a new post when I’ve read it up to date it stays in The new post list

The reason we're using that is to reduce small posts. Which have a drastic effect in Google these days. My theory is, if it can't be said in a small sentence, then it could be done with a smiley face.

A few sentences are required really. Not just even 5 words.

And if you circumvent the system, you're likely going to be put in the troll group which makes ALL your posts sit in a mod queue until we are around to approve your bigger posts, and delete all the rest. So you're wasting your own time and the time of the moderators.

Thanks Dan, it's very useful.

Hi Dan,

Not sure if this is relevant, but it must have kept me logged in from yesterday and came up with this in the alerts (old platform used to come up with “you need to be logged in to do that). Scott_d replied tomorrow?

Thanks,
Chris.

@Dan @Lou I only use my phone to browse the Forum, I have noticed that the webpage doesn’t refresh by itself and that I have to manually do it?
