Still lots to fix, you will experience slowdowns


Recommended Posts

Although the forums now work, you will experience sporadic slowdowns and stuff not working properly for the next day or so while we add back in those functionalities.

 

You can report everything you see if you want, but as I've already answered the same question in multiple threads I've decided to make this one.

 

We will announce when the issues are all resolved and should be bug free, after that we'll happily respond to bug reports.

 

We know of:

  • Minispy and all last poster links don't take you to the last post
  • Likes hasn't been enabled yet because it is broke (also causes massive SQL loads for us)
  • IE 10 issues here and there (inline editor doesn't complete, editor toolbar is missing when doing posts)
  • Coloured names for staff and other groups aren't shown everywhere
  • Attachments don't show sometimes
  • Favorites don't work
  • Similar tagged topics don't work
  • Guest count don't show
  • Signature image generator doesn't work
  • Status updates not showing in sidebar
  • Post stars not showing in posts
  • Other stuff I forgot to mention

Additionally, the forums may return a HTTP 500 error, this means we are messing with hooks, which due to server load, knocks the forum offline for a bit.

 

Thanks for your patience.

 

ALL FIXED! we'll listen for other bugs now.

Still not seeing that from my end. I made sure to clear all caches.

 

Heh,  :p - started working some time later

I am randomly unable to access the desktop version of the forums on my phone and tablet. Tapping "Desktop Version" in Chrome simply reloads the page, still in mobile.

Clicking the link at the bottom takes me back to the main forums, still in mobile view.

Will confirm with Timan, but I'm not even sure Desktop version is supported with 3.4.5 when accessing with a mobile now.

Had problems making a new thread.

:huh:  :cry:

lol, see what I mean, I neeeeeeeed to like that post.

Also, is the quote thing meant to be fixed now? I'll screen shot this reply.

It works if you empty your cache, there's a workaround that Timan might add in when he gets around to it.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
