I'm still getting used to it, i miss the mark all posts read button though.

Known issue. Under some conditions the "mark all topics read" command doesn't appear.

Please note that the "mark forums read" command is available at the BOTTOM of the forums list on first page.

8) Still on it. Posts / topics... same issue.

I'm finding that when I make a post my post shows up when I click the "View new posts".
Before the system would realize you probably read your message when you typed it
Working as intended, although a bit strange, and was a phpBB users request: this way you can easily find and check all your last posts without any specific search. Also allows a to control that you pressed the right button and didn't drop the post or saved it to drafts, etc.

When you receive a PM, the REPLY button doesn't use the right image.

Also... maybe we should force you to read every post!


Please say if a bug was forgotten.

We will reach version 1.0.2 (currently 1.0.1) when all the minor bugs reported until Midnight today GMT are fixed.

Oh my god you did not just tell me "working as intended" ... NOooooo.

Stupid call on their part. Should have been a preference. I totally hate it. All you had to do was go "back" to find your message. Now I end up seeing the thread hours later thinking someone posted something new only to find I'm reading my own post.

:sigh:

PS. I only blame you for saying those 3 words, nothing else

I did it on purpose ! Hahahahaha

By the way, using the page back key can be a bit confusing too but I agree it should be an option to list or not your own posts in new posts. Note also that each topic has two handy icons:

One to go to the FIRST UNREAD POST (left of the topic title)

One to go to the LAST POST (near the name of the last poster)

Tonight I went to the WWW Consortium (Web / HTML standardization "authority") to submit our work on the new forums and introduction video page.

We are fully W3C approved for all our CSS (Cascading Styles Sheets: the things that determine colors, fonts, typography, many aspects of the layout, etc.)

This means our code is totally "pure" and "perfect".

The minor modifications we might have to perform shouldn't change that. (We'll retest of course.)


The other validation control is about HTML itself, and it can't be seriously done as long as we modify the forums (especially as 90% of the HTML code is produced by PHP programs and not directly written). A first series of global tests shows only minor syntax "errors" compared to the strictest standards of HTML (browsers are actually much more open than the W3C standard). Most sites have more errors, and worse ones. Nothing serious, and nothing that can't prevent our site to work flawlessly. The "zero" error here is a technical ideal but not a goal at all.

Just for example:

• AP first forum page:
  • 29 errors (minor) for HTML
    0 CSS errors, validated
  General Motors first page (not complicated at all BTW):
  • 36 Errors + 23 warnings for HTML
    132 errors in the CSS !

(Hey, General Motors, can't hire coders?!)

Fixed an display error with Internet Explorere on the AP Video page:

What IE users SHOULD have seen on the AP video page

hi chrisax!

Everything is wonderful for me and the new forum is best forum i see.
I think was me that voted at 04:30am to say was awesome

can i just make small tiny little request, is not urgent or even important, so pleeease only do when DrH has stopped driving u craxxy with varible fixed width tiny huge monitor stuff.

could u please add some more new smilies or update the current ones? nice 3d ones be ubah!!!

i find some but idk if is copyright or illegal

Code: Select all

http://www.funwithmsn.com/emoticons/3D/

ubah!! i make iframe woot!!! Edited by Chrisax: see next post please.

[Chrisax]

Mytefe, when I have a moment, I'll have a look at the question of smilies and avatars. I'll try to find some interesting ones.


Now, a concern: yes you inserted a web page in AP forums. Congratulations, I guess you are the first one to acheive this, except me of course.

Nevertheless, this is exactly the kind of pages we can't accept in an iframe because they contain junk and have a bad behaviour (unwanted ads, forcing popups or other windows, bad use of cookies, spy software, etc.). This one tries to open a new window to a"d.yieldm anager.com" (I broke the URL on purpose), and it seems also tries to place some tracker cookies. So I removed the frame and just left the URL in a code area. Sorry.

In general, you all, please do NOT open frames to sites like "OMG what wonderful free stuff I have on my site, lookie! All free stuff here!"

oops sry chrisax i didnt know was bad page...was from microsoft msn (should have guessed lol)

But probably an advertisement on MSN and not from Microsoft itself. No problem, Mytefe. 8) This will help us all to be careful.

I've got this PM from Hyde, in my unread messages, but I can't read it.. When I click on it, it says:

"NO_AUTH_READ_HOLD_MESSAGE"

Now what is that?

I'll send you a PM right now. Please tell me if you receive it correctly.

[Hyde]

fwiw the message isn't a high priority Alpha. I'll leave it though so that you can debug things with Chrisax.
