If any member here has any question about any technical aspect of the forums, this is the place to ask it. Also, if there are any outages, we'll report about them here.

Thank you very much for all of your work. This forum is the best forum ever. I would die for this forum. I'm all tingly just thinking about it all. Or is it shivers? It's difficult to tell.

One thing I do notice is that every now and then a thread you reply to will wind up in "unread threads". This is a bug that happens from time to time. The easiest resolution is to ignore it or to just read the topic like it was unread, then it's marked read and you can get on with your life.
-
:explosion1:
^ I did that, just now. Lesson learned: index.template.php is NOT something you want to mess with. Thankfully, I don't think I'll have to jack with it again, forums look just the way I like them.

Nice looking Forum.
Many thanks and congratulations to those who put this together. I hope to back soon for some interesting conversation.

Nice to see you back in action, buddy.

I've noticed when I've replied to a thread rather than a post it takes me back to the front page when I hit post?
Great to see you again Typhon :pub:

I had the same or a similar problem, hopefully the following advice from the FAQ will help you?
"#1:
After posting a comment I return back to the parent forum instead on the topic, what to do?
Answer:
It does that on default, you have to go to your profile and change the setting like this:
Profile -> Modify profile -> Look & Layout : Return to topics after posting by default :D
EDIT: Ooops, Charger, you were quicker than me. :-D

Done! Thankyou :thumbsup:

Thank you Charger and Linda. Big help. :rockon:

Be good if it was more phone friendly considering how many people use their phones for web surfing these days. I downloaded the tapatalk app and I hate it.
Also, how to post photos & videos?
Sorry I'm one of those people that never reads instruction manuals. Just dive straight in head first
And...Can we get this gif added? I think it'll be a worthy addition https://goo.gl/images/fgzUsy

I cannot answer about the phone stuff as I hate using phone for these...you can't see shit from that small screen and writing is like trying to shove telephone poles under your fingernails...
As for attaching pictures, check out the attachment, use the button circled in yellow.
As for videos, use the button circled in red.
-
Got the GIF, its code is buhbye.
:buhbye:
As for phone-friendly... hmmm... if there's a better moblie forum app than Tapatalk, let's have a look at it. I'm always up for improving the user experience.
You can also get images into a post with the img BBCode. Both youtube and yt work as BBCodes for video. Code would be typed as below:
New gif: :buhbye:
Image: [img]URL-of-image[/img]
Youtube vid: [yt]URL-of-video[/yt] or with youtube instead of yt

Looking over apps for reading forums, not seeing any that have both good reviews and low numbers of tech complaints... not easy to see any we would want to test with.

Okay...I might install tapatalk just to test it out...

If you want to change your display name, work with an admin or mod on that. It was allowed before, but only because we didn't think to turn it off. Nothing against anyone that changed a display name up to now, but just let us know if you need/want to change it again.
-
The board sometimes tends to lag and/or freeze while I try to post. Does this occur for anyone else?
-
Yes it happens sometimes. Not too often though.
-
Lucky. It's happening quite frequently, for me.
-
Ah...unfortunate. What browser are you using?
-
Google Chrome.
-
I'm sorry to learn about your issues with the forums Scott (and by the way, welcome!).
A couple of more questions if you don't mind:
1. What operating system are you running?
2. Are you using any plug-ins with Chrome?
Just as another data point, I haven't experienced any issues in that regard, but I'm running Vivaldi.

Mine has frozen up with Win7 and Chrome in the full post view. Quick reply works fine for me. Maybe there was a bug in Chrome that got fixed behind the scenes, who knows?
Also hello!
-
Well hopefully that was the problem...
I'm using Mozilla and occationally there are some slow moments but no total freezes...but I'm inclined to believe it's the mozilla that's acting out more than the forum...this latest Mozilla version is total crap.

I posted a picture here, using the picture button

Hey Linda,
I looked at your post and modified it. The URL you used was the URL from the browser address bar, which took me to the page where the image is hosted. But it wouldn't show up as an image on this forum because it isn't actually the image's address.
That site puts images in a container of sorts. So, I right clicked on the image itself, chose "Copy image address", and pasted that into your post.

OK, call me stupid, but I'm having trouble posting YouTube videos. I right click on the video and "copy video URL". Back at the forum I hit "reply", click the YouTube play button and then "paste". Before I "post" I notice the YouTube link is the same friggin' cat video I posted a while back. When I post it says it's a bad URL. But if you click on it the cat video plays. What am I doin' wrong? Help me please.
-
For YouTube videos I always just copy the address in the address bar.
-
Thanks Vyn that worked. But both the videos I posted say "invalid YouTube link" yet the video works. I don't know.

Try just deleting that part? The video worked fine, though.
As you might've seen i've added a new forum for everything related to stuff you've done yourself. I moved Axe's backingtracks there (thanx for posting, btw), and feel free to post your own music, videos, talk about the gear you've got or wish you had, and what Iommi, Blackmore, Satriani and Django Reinhardt is using. And so forth...
-
I've noticed that the URL in the address bar works just fine even without the YouTube BBCode tags. Yay that bit of cleverness.

If you receive a PM, does something pop up to tell you that you have 1?
-
Where are the best places to get photos to post here that are free, like album covers, beer, stupid shit?
-
There is no pop up report for private messages here. But you will see (1) next to your My messages bar.
Do you mean a place where you can upload your own pics? I use flickr...it's tricky as fuck and very annoying to use but there aren't too many free imagine hosting sites out there anymore that allow forum posting of images.
-
Thank you Charger, you've answered both of my questions, regards.

^ I would imagine "Sweet Leaf" would sound kind of reggae, played on the ukulele, but that's perhaps for another thread, now that the cat's out of the bag on the ukulele front, as we see in the lower left corner...

I had a strange glitch with the forums a few minutes ago - I was trying to respond to Billy in the new albums bought thread when I pressed to respond it nuked my post except for the last word I had typed???
Now I may have hit something by accident but I am quite sure that all I did was use my mouse to press the Post button.
-
Interesting....Hasn't happened to me.
If it happens again inform us right away...hopefully it was just a one time glitch and nothing more serious.
-
I will definitely report it here if it happens again.
-
Similar stuff has happened to #metoo. After having written a long post, i pressed the Post button only to return to the thread without it being posted. Luckily the post was still there when i went back in my browser log, though.
-
There are periodic glitches on forums, but if the frequency increases, it's worth noting.

So I forgot my password yesterday and got an email to reset it. When I logged in via the email link I logged in with my username Jack the Stripper and new password. When I tried to log in again a few hours later it wasn't accepting my username so I tried jack the tripper which was my original username and that worked ?
Also, I've noticed if you tilt your phone sideways the forum is much better to view, or views how it should be instead of getting two words per line.

Yes you need to remember that the name you registered with is your username, the name visible is your screenname. The Username cannot be changed afterwards.

Yeah I realise that but the oddity was I was able to log in(when I had to create a new password) with my current screen name.

Well that is interesting...I guess it can accept both then or maybe it was just a glitch...can't say...but the main thing is that you got in again. :)

Mustve been a glitch because when I tried to log in again a few hour later with my current screen name it didn't work.
-
It's true, the screen name != user name, so we have to be mindful of both.
As for phone viewing, I use Tapatalk. It does strip out most of the images and smileys, but it also gets me the text I want to see in the threads.

Have been meaning to ask since the birth of this place about the level of seating on each members profile. Does your level of seating change the more you've posted?
I'm in the nose bleed seats... :squint:
Is it possible to get to pit or snake pit level? :lol:
:rockon:
-
Yes the level changes with the ammount of posts.

In about a dozen more, I get to go up a level. :D

Any suggestions for more Heal/Hurt games when Zeppelin and Metallica is done, to make "official" Community rankings?
The "general albums" can ofcourse keep going endlessly.
Z, i guess you'd like a Purple game, but i don't know how to divide that mess into eras... '68-'69/'70-'73/'74-'75/'84-'93/'96-'17? Lump the Bolin and Turner albums in with the Evans albums as "other eras"? I think there should be a divide between the 70's mk II and 80's/90's mk II atleast.
Other obvious suggestions:
Ozzy solo
Dio solo
Iron Maiden?
Motörhead?
Atleast it should be bands with a sizeable discography. As fun as it would be to do Guns N' Roses and Nirvana, that would be very quick games.
Got an idea for another Sabbath-related list/game too, but that'll have to wait for later... ;)
-
Judas Priest
Could do Live albums, debut's, sophomore, era's 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, thrash, The Big 4,
LA Metal, Doom, Grunge, NWOBHM
The options are endless Billy :think:
:rockon:
-
The options are endless Billy :think:
Indeed :) Feel free to start 'em up, and i'll follow up with updating the "official" thread...
-
There's three already in play. Shouldn't we wait until one is finished? I'll join in the Zeppelin one when the current game is done, just to speed it up if not for anything else.
-

Yes...let's not do too many at the same time.
Next one should be Deep Purple as we have a seperate board for them too.
It should go the same way as the Sabbath one did...all in one but for seperate eras.
Evans
Mk2
Others
Morse
I know zzz's gonna object my over generalization of the eras but that makes the game much easier and yet doesn't make the eras too small.
Once we finish Metallica then I'll start this one if no one else does so first.
-

Well, he lumped Born Again and 7th Star in with the Martin albums, so... :P
-
He did indeed.
-
I was thinking of a DP game, doing all 20 studio albums against each other. That, or doing the 10 from 1968-1976 and then the 10 from 1985-present in different brackets.
Agreed that we ought to space these out. Having one general album one is good, but no more than 2 band-specific duels at a time.
-
Is it just me or has anyone else lost the "Unread Posts" and "Recent Posts" text from the Menu Bar? There's just a blank spaces where they should be... but they still work!!
-
Yes, they are gone... I'll look into that.
-
Re-installed the packages, looks like there was an event about 3 hours ago that affected those functions. We may need to do some other things, but I got those options restored.
-
Thanks Zzzzptm, you're an angel!

I do what I can. :smug:

Hey - I see Simple Machines Forum as well???

Well we all are just simple machines now aren't we? :D
I can't fix that unfortunately as I do not have the logo...but I'm sure zzz will fix it as soon as he can.
-
Well, as long as it isn't Angry Machines... :P
But has that replaced the logo? I still got the TC skull logo...

-
^^^^^^
Now I understand what you are talking about. I never saw this before.
-
Yeah, when I forced an uncached page to reload, I got the SMF logo again. I'll get after fixing this one.
And please please please please please do report EVERYTHING that isn't right, because we all want to take care of *our* place.
-
^^^^^^
I see that SMF logo when I view the site from another computer that I have never logged in from, but not from my main computer from which I get logged in automatically. Hope this helps you.
-
I still get the old logo on my phone but SMF on my iPad :think:
-
Need to centre the logo more Zzz, half the skull is cut off, at least it is on my IPad.
-
Now i get a very huge and a bit too "right-wing" logo...
-
Need to centre the logo more Zzz, half the skull is cut off, at least it is on my IPad.
Thats much better now. Great work Zzz
-
Try it now, I got the logo setting repaired.
The larger logo was from the 404 page. I found a thread from when we first uploaded the logo and had the image there, so I was able to use that for the logo setting.
-
It's back to normal now but I actually didn't mind the larger logo, was just a bit off centre that's all.
-

So, that indicates there may have been other settings that got zeroed or reset to defaults. We'll just have to keep our eyes open for them, going forward.
-
You're awsome, Z. Without you this place wouldn't exist. Well, you and that mysterious vaxm0s-guy, ofcourse... :) :thumbsup:
-
OK, I did a new thing... "Posts" now has a dropdown for all unread and recents... and it means that the logout choice is back on the line with the other choices so it looks nicer.
So, it's a choice between looks nicer or having all unread and recent on the line... I'm personally in favor of looking nicer, that logout below the menu bar had been bugging me, since we added the calendar choice.
EDIT: Clicking on "Posts" will take you to All Unread, so I'm cool with that.
-
Very good change indeed!
Good job bubba!
-
Over at BSO I got a PM from MJD2013 who is trying to register, apparently it's saying that "Plant" is incorrect when answering the question "What is the last name of Led Zep's singer?", he's also tried the full name but no luck.
Any thoughts?
-
That is the correct response, and it is not case-sensitive. But, it is space sensitive, so if it was copied and pasted and Windows decided to add a space, then it will mess things up. Just type it in and it should work.
If he did type it in, refresh and see if he gets a new set of questions.
-
^^^ Thanks, he's in.

I noticed Charger got a poll going in the shaving thread, I’ve been thinking of getting some album vs album polls going or polls of best albums in a particular year but I’m not sure how to go about it and to be honest I haven’t been bothered trying to figure it out.
So Charger, Billy, Zzz or anyone else that has the know how wanna get a poll(s) started?
:metal1: :guitar: :rockon:
-
When you are on the forum section you want to put the poll on you'll see on the right side above the Subeject/Started by section the bars for "New Topic" AND "New Poll" so instead of clicking the new topic just click new poll and the rest will be easy going.
-
Thanks Charger, I've never noticed that option from the new topic section, probably because I've hardly started any threads on here.
It was probably the same instructions to start a poll at the other place though was it?
-

Most likely, pretty standard on most forum code. It's just not always evident because it only shows up in a view of the threads in a forum, not in a thread itself or a show new messages tab.

Are pages taking about 8-12 seconds to build after making a post for anyone else?
If so, I've got an investigation started on that issue.

Possibly, but then why have the ability to make a buddy list at all? It would seem to contradict that.

Well that is what is built into the forum software. We cannot really change that. We can remove it all together (which we won't) but we cannot modify it.

Well, we *can* modify things...

This one allows the ability to see common buddies, kinda cool.

But we still cannot have what vBulletin has from what I can gather and that I think was what Typhon was after.

True, true. SMF doesn't work the way vBulletin does. :-\

Thanks for mentioning. It may have been as simple as a browser issue or as narsty as a database hiccough. If we don't see it again, we'll just assume a browser thang.

I have noticed that when entering an image or youtube video, the focus (blinking curser) is positioned 2 characters to far to the right when ever either of these buttons are used for a comment, unless the comment starts with the use of either button. This is likely a bug in the software.
-
Most likely it is yeah...Haven't even noticed that myself though!

I'm not seeing it... When I put them in, I get the cursor right between the brackets, where I can paste the link.

Try typing in a sentence, then starting on the next line click the image button.

Hmm...seems to work just fine for me atleast...
Cursor is in the right place.
Which browser do you use? I've got Mozilla and it seems to work

Internet Explorer 11

^^^^ I use IE 11 and I know exactly what you're talking about. I always have to move the cursor to the middle before inserting. I guess it could be an IE 11 thang.
-
Ah well that settles it then.
IE is to blame for that then. How? I have no idea though.

The problem could still have been addressed by the original code writers. All this means is they did not properly test their software on various platforms. Kind of odd seeing as IE is one of the most common on the planet.

Different browsers have different ways of implementing Internet standards.

I have never mentioned it, even though I noticed it months ago. You have the :'( emoji listed twice.

Hahah So we do I see:

Has there been server issues here? Had trouble viewing the site the last 12 hours. Or maybe it's from my end? Had no trouble elsewhere on the net though. Just here.
-
Yes. We had a database problem with our host.
The forum was down for a while but seems to be working again...hopefully there won't be any more issues.

:sorry:
Glad it's up again! :smug:

Someone forgot to put some money in the meter!

Actually, it's slipping the cash-filled briefcase under the stall door in the gents' room at a certain restaurant in Chinatown, but, yeah, same premise. :)

??? Why does it say "Dr. Feelgood" under my name?
I did not put that there.

It is automatic and relates to the number of posts you have made, the more posts you make the further up the ladder you get. I'm behind you with the number of posts and have a "VIP Pass" under my name, when I reach the next level it will change to something else.
However, I have no idea why "Dr Feelgood" should be the name of a level, I quite like the band in question but I don't know why they represent that level of posts!

Those titles were created by Billy if memory serves me right.

I don't see anyone else in the Member List at that level. :think: Makes me think one of the mods is messing with me.

I am not.
Also it is purely based on the number of posts. I can check the exact numbers that make you "the drug dealer of the band"....
EDIT:
2400-2599 posts.
2600 gets you in the "Priivate Limo".
If you don't like these put on your necromancer pants and give your complaints to Billy. ;D
-
^^Or he could just post a lot more if he doesn't like it ;)
-
^^^
Well sure if you want the easy way... :D
-
I don't mind if that is the way it works. But, like KDC said, it didn't make any sense to me why a level would be called Dr. Feelgood. That's why I thought someone was screwing around.
-
Nope, that's what Billy and I came up with. Dr. Feelgood was one of Billy's suggestions.
-
I noticed that when you click on the double arrow (>>) to the left of any week on the calendar, it presents a list of the days of that week. Is this suppose to serve any useful purpose? ???
-
Looks like it changes the view from monthly to weekly. I suppose if we had a highly active monthly calendar, that would help. Don't see it as a useful feature at this juncture, though.
-
Yeah I think if we'd have an active calendar with lots of entries each day (meetings, greetings, lawn mowings and head bangings) it would make it cleared to read them...
But ofcourse as our calendar only works as a birthday reminder it really serves no purpose but it's the way the thing is built.
You don't really need to push every button on everything though... :D

-
But I can't make a calendar entry if I wanted to, can I?
-
I am not sure how it works...
I can post an event but it might be limited to mods only...
-
How do you post it?
When I click on the calendar day, it does nothing.
-
Put your mouse on top of the calendar button in the upper bar it should show "View calendar" and "Post Event" options...at least it does for me...but as I said it might just be limited to mods and admins that option...not sure.
-
It's admin-only
-
Ah...so I kind of expected.
-
Yeah, man, we can't be having the riff-raff posting shit in the calendar! That would lead to chaos, division between nations, cats and dogs trying to procreate...Armageddon, I tell you!

Just another case of mod privilege. :squint:

I made a new post on that thread yesterday, and it was gone.
I'll try it again.
