Exclamation Error Reports and New Questions (Updated 17 Jan 2020)

I have closed the old thread. It was getting too cluttered.
Everything that needed to be noted and passed on to the tech team has been.

I am not interested in pointless complaints.
they will be deleted.

Users do have a responsibility to educate themselves.
Read what's already been posted to catch up.
Also, check the FAQ to see if your answer is there.
If you ask a question here that has already been answered elsewhere it will be deleted.

Please post new questions and/or new reports of things that are not working correctly.

For your convenience I am - once again - attaching the new instructions for adding images to threads and comments.

Default Updated Fix List Report (01-17-2020)

This is what I can remember or pick out of the first thread.
Remember - Do Not Repeat Reports From the First Thread.
  • Color Scheme Changes - Overall: On their way. Date not yet fixed.
  • Color Change - Titles of Threads Already Read:
    • Already works in the Archive sections;
    • Titles do already Change from Bold to Not Bold.
    • Try using the F5 key. Will trigger color change in some browsers.
  • Albums: Fixed
  • Blogs: Unlikely.
  • Reminder Emails:
    • Now lead to "New Posts" or "Today's Posts." This is a permanent change.
  • Articles: The emails that are supposed to link to Articles link to an error page because the Articles did not survive the migration. Either Articles will be restored or the emails will be stopped. Not sure which or when.
  • "Leave Page" prompt: Resolved.
    The Confusing "Spoiler" thing (+ in a box, next to the Quotation icon in the editing areas:
    • Spoiler is used to post anything that users would have to click to see the hidden contents. Such uses would be when someone posts an ending to a movie and doesn't want to spoil it for others.
    • To remove it, click the "source" button and remove the text with the spoiler tag.
    • Seems crazy to me. I recommend to you avoid clicking on it. Not sure the techs can disable it.
  • Smilies: Fixed! Yahooooo!!!
  • Avatars: did not survive the migration. We can restore them ourselves. Go to User CP or Profile to find the setting option.
  • Remember Me: Fixed. just remember to not log out. just close the QB tab or your whole browser.
  • Feedback Feature: Not included in the new version of the board software. Am sifting through options for possible replacement. No promises. Haven't found anything yet.
  • Calendar: Stopped at Jan 2019. Fixed
  • Chat Room: Gone. Permanent Change.
Image Upload in Mobile View [malfunction]: Techs have not been able to track down the cause. Now disabled in mobile view. If you absolutely must upload from a mobile device, please switch to Full Site view.

Image Upload Fails When File Size >1.2 MB: Please adjust to this. Really, no image file needs to be >1MB. Please compress your picture files before uploading.

"Leave Page" prompt has gone away now that I changed my messenger interface to "enhanced editor" as you suggested. It probably is a Chrome glitch. Thank you for the fast solution! You are rocking the info, Patrice! Thank you!

All the credit for the speed of this fix goes to my buddy/POC over at IB.
A round of applause for him. :-)

BTW, likely another Chrome glitch but the threads do not go from bold to unbold if I have read them. Time to switch over to Firefox for a while.

I use Chrome and they do switch... the caveat on that is it only shows up changed when you refresh or reload the page of listed threads.

It has worked for me for the most part unless I am quoting like I am now.

I don't think it is fixed, it is not up to date.

Janey - Neat people never make the exciting discoveries I do.
