GBAtemp V2 Bug report...

[Luse]

I just wanted to get a head start on collecting all the bugs that might be found on this new board, so if you found something you think is a bug please list it as well as you can telling us everything that you did to mess up our new board...

Ok... Kidding aside, if you run into a glitch let us know...

 

[mynimal]

It's to show that he's replying. Hover over his name, it'll say "reading...", "replying...", etc..

 

[Chakal]

I think you guys forgot to remove an option in our control panel... "Purchase Paid Subscriptions"

I have absolutely no clue, but on that screenshot it almost seems as if I was actually between mod and member...

Can you hover my name and see if something comes up? On some pages, these are keywords, which have tooltip text with some kind of additionnal infos when you hover them. That's what the dashed underline reminds me...

P.S. I know I'm not the first, but try Firefox!

You might really like it, and who knows, this might be a spyware which has info on ME...

EDIT : I've replied too late... Hey, at least I wasn't 100% wrong with my hover theory!

Okay, you're right Icarus, it does mean "reading" or "replying".
I haven't seen any other people italicized, probably becuase they all take advantage of Fast Reply.

Since I'm guessing you want most of them, I'll tell you this little detail I noticed...

There is a glitch with the main page in Firefox 1.0 (not IE 6.0) , the image isn't quite at the top. While it is on other pages, the portal is the exception I have noticed, it is around 6-10 pixels from the top...

Not big at all, but a small glitch nonetheless...

(this one might be a pain, as this kind of CSS-related glitch is often hard to track down... Only attempt to fix it when you'll have a good amount of time on your hands and a good deal of courage...

It might be even harder to find since it only happens in Firefox and not in IE...

I think the time's off. It says 10:40-ish on the board clock, but it's past 11. I've already checked my time zone, and it's right.

I think the time's off.  It says 10:40-ish on the board clock, but it's past 11.  I've already checked my  time zone, and it's right.

True it's 8:35 right now, when I post this message it should show 8:35, pending that you're in Pacific Standard Time but the minutes are what matters here.

What do you know? 9:07, this makes the GBAtemp clock around 30 minutes fast I guess. *shrugs*

 

[Vince989]

Something I had noticed earlier, but which is now a lot more obvious...

Some sigs can break up the tables for a user's posts, as can be seen here. Either validate the sigs as they are being input, or just edit his sig so it is okay...

here its 1:38 AM and it is GMT -4:00 time zone. this is just to help.

How long is the session expiration thing, because it's still showing posts from 5 hours ago maked as new and unread (because I haven't read them obviously, but I don't plan to).

Edit:
Also, the gOnline pages recently started stretching. It didn't happen earlier in the day. I'm using a 1024x768 resolution.
Seems to be caused by either the drop-down menu or the list of roms.

Thanks guys, we'll look at and try to fix every one of these bugs.

Keep them coming!

 

[Hunter]

i found a bug but cant post it here

it's a staff thing..... ooooooooo costello you bad

read your pm

 

[Costello]

I fixed ajdude's post bug, actually it was his sig that was messed up

also, don't forget to clear the cache (or full refresh ==> Ctrl+F5)

I'll check the other bugs



sorry for the 10-posting !!

 

[Costello]

I can't seem to submit a review yet. If I try to, it just says that I'm not allowed to start a topic. Is this a bug or has this just not been implemented yet?

*The Nose Has Left The Building.*

should be fixed now

 

[Costello]

@ Jan 14 2005, 01:27 AM)]Perhaps not a bug, but a needed upgrade.. Same thing right

lol

Shouldn't it show the %'s

thats normal .... if you want the numbers, just click on "Discuss the poll"

hehe
(it looks better on the portal w/out the numbers)

 

[Costello]

Two things, first the RSS is displaying some titles oddly:

Second, could the links in the rom info news posts be fixed so they don't load in a new window/tab? The links are "Click here" (next to "View NFO"), "Vote here", and "# staff notes".

When I send a PM, it doesn't save the sent message in my sent folder.
There's a checkbox on the PM form that says "Add a copy of this message to my sent items folder". But it's a bit irritating to remember to check it everytime. It could easily be modified to be on by default though (or have an user option to have it set to default).

about the links, it's a good idea indeed ... I'll see what I can do

and, the RSS is fixed! (big thanks Hunter!

)

The Forum Rules is dated 2nd of february 2005
Board time doesn't correspond with the actual time even with GMT offset - it's 25 minutes slow.

Why is there a warn 0% with five squares next to it under my avatar? 

I fear we might not be able to chagne the board time ... unless there is an option in the Admin CPanel, the only way to change it is to directly access the server shell ... and we DONT own the server so we can't change its date

edit: ......... but there IS an option

I'll adjust it now !
edit2: done !

 

[Costello]

Not a bug, but something that I liked from the previous board. Can't use txt files for images anymore (as is the normal way people go around Geocities).

should work now

(except maybe in sigs, I dunno yet)

well, I could never get it working

I tried a lot though ... on IE it works fine, but there's still a margin on FF and I can't seem to fix it

1. about the session expiration thing, what do you propose instead ?
2. I'm trying to fix it... maybe it's already fixed, or not, I can't get the bug anymore

sorry for the 10-posting !
