Forum Update

**passinginterest** · 04/02/2010, 9:10 AM

I've definitely got the same issues as Stu using very old Internet Explorer in work. Not sure if it's the same on other browsers at home as I didn't get on last night.

Can you try a hard refresh stu? (CTRL+5 on Windows)

I think part of the reason they held back 4.0.2 was to fix IE bugs.

CTRL+5 just selected all.

CTRL+F5 did seem to refresh, but it's changed nothing. I'm on IE7 by necessity unfortunately.

I've done that ctrl F5 thing and it will show that I have posted in threads if I go into the individual forum but if I just hit new posts or what's new they don't show. I'm on IE 5 or 6 that should have been replaced long ago in work.

If this is not in relation to the post missing problem I mentioned, apologies.

Hard refresh does nothing for me. I'm using Google Chrome. First and last messages on almost every page are missing.

Bizarre. Leave it with me lads, I'll have a look at it with a few different browsers tomorrow when I'm back in Cork.

Thanks for the feedback by the way, keep it coming.

If I click on go to first new post on a thread it brings me to the last page in the thread as opposed to the first new post and my own posts don't appear in new posts when I post them.

EDIT-I had a look and this doesn't appear to be there in new posts.

**MaryDrummer** · 04/02/2010, 5:50 PM

I keep getting automatically logged out. It's damn annoying!

On Google Chrome 5.0.307.1 dev, Mac.

It's seems to have settled a bit now...a whole 4 hours without it logging itself out! Whoo!

Maybe it has already been mentioned, but clicking on the "go to first unread post" and "go to last post" buttons send me all over the place - occasionally to the last post, but more often to the top of the last page, or even to the top of the second-last page.

It seems to bring me to the top of the page that the last unread post was on.

Marking forums read doesn't work for me. They just still appear as if there's new posts in them. And I get logged out a fair bit, at one point today, it took me 4 or 5 attempts to log in.

**dahamsta** · 05/02/2010, 7:15 PM

I'll be running a full index tonight, so if the forums are slow later, you know why.

The login issues will have to wait until after 4.0.2 is rolled out here, a lot of small bugs will be fixed in that.

**SkStu** · 05/02/2010, 7:18 PM

get the last read post thing sorted asap, great feature.

still hating the colour.

i cant tell one smiley from another

is the thanks function coming back?

Cheers

The indexes are rebuilt now, so search results should be relatively normal. Damn thing took the whole weekend and it was interrupted by a power cut in my gaff, which means I'll need to run it again. I also need to run another long query to update posts with the correct URLs, but that'll take some time too, it'll have to wait. Everything else will have to wait until 4.0.2 is out.

**dahamsta** · 08/02/2010, 2:43 PM

Not if I can avoid it.

So am I correct in assuming we will eventually get the old skin (or something like it) back and this new look is not permanent?

Yes. It'll be a week or two before a proper Foot.ie skin is in place, but I'll get something a bit more defined in place by the weekend just as an interim measure.
