OK Kat some obvious ones..........
MYSQL Error code 11 coming up practically everyother button press.
Unable to hide Postcode in Profiles
Unable to use apostrophe (') in user name stops you logging into site........ hence after a phone call, Nick at SH Towers has given us a new name.
Can't see what memebership level we have ....... are we premium members?? we are supposed to be.

In addition to the glaring problems of postcodes and error pages, there is no link to the old java chatroom - I've put it on my sig for those that want to use the java room rather than the video chat room.
Also, on the forum, if you click on latest post or the little arrow next to the last poster's name it takes you to the top of the page instead of to their post.

TO ALL THOSE WITH THE POSTCODE PROBLEM TRY THIS

Quote by well_busty_babe
hope this might help some of you.
under where it has your postcode input on the page, i had a box where i had to pick the village.
when i selcted the (wrong) village, it then allowed me to pick the "none" option and kept it that way.
hope this works for u all.
xxxxxxxxxxxx

What WBB is saying is....................
1. Select a town or village in your profile.......... any town or village will do.
2. Press "Update Profile"
3. Go back into profile and then select "none" from the options list.
4. Press "Update Profile".
You should then find your Town/Village/Postcode details are hidden.

minor one this, when the avatar page loads the window is restricted in size and can't be dragged to a different size or maximised, should ba a straightforward fix in the window attributes

There seem to be problems with long usernames, so far I've seen long names in the "Latest Ads" box on the right exceeding the size of the frame, and causing a horizontal scroll bar to appear, and attempts to sent mail to my mailbox seem to be failing as my name is truncated to "Mister_Disc".
The page that shows all topics on the forum has the titles in light blue on slightly lighter blue, which is hard to read - switching to the new red would be a quick fix for this, probably just 1 line of the CSS to change.
We also seem to have lost the list of members (which means no more 'who's in my threesome' thread)

I have been unable to merge our photo ads with our usernames. I have tried with both TJ's and mine, and all we get is "user name already exisits, please choose another"....
And this is from some one who runs 3 websites, with forums, classified ads, on-line shop and more using phpbb2 and vbulletin! - so I know what I'm about on forums rolleyes

13 Dec 2005

And where's me feckin "Chatroom Op" and status bar etc. and certain other little "added extras" gone mad

13 Dec 2005

Clicking on Latest Ads only tends to pick up the last 1 or 2 ads

13 Dec 2005

thought i would say this, before freckledbird does! lol

in the "joint" profiles, the partners details say "alakhol" instead of alchohol :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The Quick Search shows people without adverts... and worse, people who are looking for something incompatible (ie I'm seeing names/postcodes of women looking for other women, and I'm a man).

Anyone know what it is smile

13 Dec 2005

As well as the system not liking apostrophe's (') in user names (hence our new name) It doesn't like ' or " in PM.s .................. doesn't know how to handle them so inserts a / or lots of ////////
In addition emotes don't work in PM's

Can anyone tell me how I can bring myself out of hiding? I've tried altering it in My Account but it seems I am going to be invisible forever lol

13 Dec 2005

Where are all my saved PM's? Have they been merged into my inbox? I seem to have millions in there now....even though I thought I'd deleted them a while back!
Also this error thing is getting a bit annoying!
Oh and is it me or is everything really slow?
biggrin

13 Dec 2005

13 Dec 2005

Am I just losing the plot, but in forum settings on the radio button for 'Show my online status' you have to select NO, to be visible. Surely this is the wrong way, or have I just embarrased myself? redface

13 Dec 2005

Can we have our "Savebox" back in our PM Box please. That way all those special PM's that I want to save I can save in there....
Thanks, otherwise, great looking site.

Enviroment: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051107 Firefox/1.5
Trying to update forum options. 2 issues seen. (So far, not really dug around yet)
Issue One
1. Click My Account
2. Click Forum Settings
Result: The 'Forum Settings' link jumps under the other 2 but I am not taken to forum settings
Expected result: Forum settings page would be displayed.
Note: Second time I click on it all ok. Also affects moving back to the Profile settings page.
Issue Two
1. Click My Account
2. Click Forum Settings (Twice as per above)
3. Click "always allow avatar" to "Yes"
4. Click "signature visible" to "Yes"
Result: Option marker moves from "always allow avatar" to "signature visible".
Expected result: Both option groups to act independantly
Notes In other words the "always allow avatar" and "signature visible" options appear to be mutually exclusive. The 4 option buttons act as 1 group not 2 seperate ones.
Guess who works 2nd/3rd line on a IT helpdesk, will hang up my anorak now.

13 Dec 2005

Can we have back the 'log me in automatically' thingummy, please? It's a pain having to log in every time I pop back here....
And the members list as well? And being able to 'find all previous posts'?
And signatures in PMs, so you can check their profile to find out who has PMed you?

13 Dec 2005

Hope I'm not asking a repeated question but after the hassle of logging onto the site, the search button is not my friend ok? lol

Having had a couple of "wanna shag" type PMs today from total strangers, I clicked onto the senders profile to see who they are and I can't see the link to "find all posts by..."
Has this feature been removed? I know I can search but it was so much easier to just use the link....anyone know?

All you can currently see is their profile, you can't find previous posts (if any) by clicking a button.
