Ouch. That's a bit close to the bone when you're talking to somebody from Inchicore!

Used to come up at the bottom of threads.

Is this gone or is it just me??

All of these features are temporarily disabled. They'll be back soon.

The new mobile profile is starting to grate ever more. I cant change back to full site either on my phone or pc.

When I click the full site link it brings me back to /forum and then when I click on settings I an then sent to a mobile style page which tells me that those settings aren't available in that profile.
It's very frustrating.

Sorry if this has been explained before but why is searching disabled at the moment?

See above. Had to postpone again this weekend, hoping to get to it tomorrow. Moving a nameserver is a pain in the hole.

sooner rather than later please! Finding the loss of the features mentioned earlier very inconvenient and affecting my enjoyment of the site and is increasing the amount of work im getting done in real life - cheers!

Has there been any progress? I'm doing far too much actual working in work these days.

Same as PI. It's infuriating knowing what's going on in the office.

Sorry lads, like I said the nameserver is critical infrastructure, I can't afford to screw it up. Still testing but hoping to get it completed this weekend.

Uh, I screwed up again. Tuesday evening now. Sorry!

was browsing the Ireland forum reading a thread and when i clicked back to the main Ireland forum all threads had been marked read in the whole foot.ie forum. I feel like gnawing my arm off in frustration....

That keeps happening to me as well.

I also still can't post on the main site on my phone and have to use the new crappy, slow, unintuitive mobile profile. :(

Sorry lads, I'll get there but I keep running into problems with the transfer. I have to rebuild the other server now completely, I'll do that either tomorror or Friday.

I've taken the Amazon ad out of circulation now, and replaced it with something else. Hopefully the replacement won't suffer from the same overlay issue as the Amazon ad on mobile.

It'll take an hour or to to update.

Unfortunately the database became corrupted with all the work that had to be done to it, had to revert to the original transfer database. Rebuilding now.

I'm seeing ads, logged in as a subscriber. The 'New Threads' and 'Most Replied' sidebars are also back on the front page of the forum.

Just so you know.
dahamsta
18/12/2011, 11:41 PM
Is it just one or all ads atfconline? I changed the one at top-right, but nothign else.

Not following on the other stuff, weren't they always there?

There's still the scroll thing in the posts. Even when I do ctrl and f5. anything that can get rid of it?

Thanks Adam, especially for getting the search engine running again.

There are 4 ads on this page alone. A small banner in the top right corner, which looks like it's in French. A larger banner above the announcement. And two square ads, one each in the first and last post.

The other sidebars had disappeared totally for me, not just minimised. Maybe there is a setting in the CP, I'll have a look.
David BOHie

I too have a problem with ads when I'm logged in.

Here is a screenshot.

Your sub has expired atfconline. I can't account for the scrollbars though, we've seen this before and I've never been able to track it down. Can you tell me your operating system, browser and version please? Also your screen resolution if possible.

Your sub has expired atfconline.

All is good again!
dahamsta
19/12/2011, 3:14 PM
Actually that was my fault, because of the downtime and database restore. I've cancelled your original subscription and added a month to your sub, sorry about that!

Ads gone now?
atfconline
19/12/2011, 4:14 PM
No worries, thanks.

All ads everywhere and the sidebar on the front page are gone.

what is the best way to do a screenshot for you Adam? Want to show you the scrollbars thing.
dahamsta
19/12/2011, 8:41 PM
Windows, MacOS or something else SkStu? Got any image editors installed? If the former and Yes, hit the PrtScn button and Paste in the image editor, then save as a JPG.

just noticed if hit ctrl+l in the quick reply box, it opens the "Insert Link" dialog box
Kind of annoying for me, that's the keyboard shortcut in Firefox to highlight the address bar.
dahamsta
20/12/2011, 8:10 AM
It does indeed, and it's the same shortcut for IE I think. I'll report it as a bug.

Thanks for the screenshot in post #81 David BOHie, what operating system, browser and versions are you using, and what's your screen resolution? Note that you will see ads, only subscribers (http://foot.ie/content/129-Club) get to browse without them.

The screenshot in post #88 is broken.

Don't mind it, it's not important. Please try logging out and in again, does it look the same both ways?

Did you try CTRL+F5? Clearing your cache?

Adam, when I try to send PM's I get a message that it was unable to send, yet when I checked my sent box it did? I've sent someone two messages(one retyped) as I didn't think it went through the first time.:confused:
David BOHie
23/12/2011, 4:17 PM
Yup. Tried all that and it didn't work. It's weird, I was looking up this website a while ago on another computer and it didn't have the scrolls. Is there a personal setting I can change or is it a problem with my computer?

Any chance you're on the recipient's ignore list?
pineapple stu
26/12/2011, 12:15 PM
I don't think the system would send you a message saying it couldn't send then. Part of the point of the ignore list is that you're not supposed to know when you're on someone's ignore list.

Try CTRL+F5 to hard refresh first anyway, oddities like this often crop up after a move or update because of cached code. Then try sending me a PM so we can check it's actually going thorugh.
