Bug Report Thread

[Seventh Holy Scripture]

As the forums have been upgraded to 2.0.1, all previous reports are assumed stale and fixed.

If reporting issues about the text box when making/editing a post stretching too far and cutting off, please clear your cache and cookies.  You most likely have a stale copy of the forum template.

If reporting issues about the themes, please provide screenshots as well as detailed information on the browser name and version you're using, as well as anything done to trigger the broken behavior.

If reporting issues about search please be aware that it is still in testing.  Missing topics is a normal thing, posts are indexed at regular intervals and sometimes brand new posts aren't in the index yet.  If it's acting slow please wait a few minutes before trying again, you may have hit it during an indexing period.

Can I be a twat and report the first bug in SMF update? :3

The editing shortcuts(ctrl+i, ctrl+u, ctrl+b, etc) that used to overlap the browser shortcuts aren't working anymore.
I know it's like a secondary feature, but I use it a lot, and I just hit ctrl+u in another thread and boom, source code window opened on my face

Dunno what to tell you, probably removed for the time being.  I've changed nothing as far as the post template/JS goes.

Something might be wrong with the avatar upload. Specifically, it refuses an image that is no larger than 150x150px or 75kB. Resizing it to 140x140 and smaller filesize (<30kB) does not help.
Error given is "The avatar you have selected is either too large or not an avatar." The image is 150x150 and 44,1kB, jpg.
Strange enough, re-uploading my previous avatar does work (150x140, 7,1kB, jpg). As does uploading a png version of the new one.
Re-saving the png version as jpg and uploading that, on the other hand, also fails.

Can't check until I get home :<  AFAIK the only option I changed was relaxing the checks for malicious images. The attachment code is so wonky.

whoops

GJ reading the OP dork xP

[triangles]

Well when you click VIEW MOST RECENT POSTS it doesn't take into account editing the OP  :V :V :V :V

Avatars should be fixed.  Apparently disabling the reencode dangerous images is a BAD thing because then it'll just flat out reject them instead of reencoding them as before.

Oh derp, didn't read opening post :derp:

Ignore boards function appears to be fucked. Specifically, selecting one or multiple boards to be ignored will set all boards to ignored (or at least all boards are marked on subsequent visits to the ignore boards page). If every single board is again unmarked and the settings saved, all the boards will again be shown as not ignored. Otherwise, all of them will stay marked.
Tried this using Firefox and Internet Explorer, same result with both. Didn't have any of the boards marked as ignored before the update, tried to mark some just now.

Also thank you for fixing the avatar issue.

Question: The search will (as far as I can tell) always only display one post from each thread, even if "show results as messages" is checked. Is this intended to be so?

[helvetica]

I'll have to play with it, that sounds like a bizarre bug.

As for search I just noticed that behavior and I think that may be an issue with the query I'm passing to Sphinx.  I'll see if I can find a way to make it pull multiple hits per topic.

[Aba Matindesu!]

Forum display on iOS is borked :< someone made a thread on it too.

E: yay fixed

Spoiler:

Links in spoilers are ... not behaving the way they probably should.

They appear visibly, unless you mouseover, at which point they disappear.

I just noticed the keyboard shortcuts are working again. I'm not sure if this was intentional, but if it was, thanks

On further research, that issue is an issue I noticed for a very long time on the admin panel when doing permission changes.  SMF doesn't actually go through and mark the checkboxes properly showing the current settings you have.  It's saved properly if you do it of course.  I've been trying to track down an alternate way to do it but it was a low priority issue because well, I'm the only one that fucks with permissions on a regular basis lol.  Guess the bug affects all "checkbox" style controls.

Sounds like a hilarious bug. I've had something like that happen to me a few times, too. Assuming you haven't made any special modifications to your SMF installation that might have brought this about, I guess I'll get myself the current SMF version and take a look at this.

It works for me. I'm using Chrome, if that helps any.

I'm not in a position to edit the actual HTML generated to add the <link rel> statement to the spat out page at this time.  I was looking for an easier way to embed it instead of adding it to every single forum theme we have.

I have a custom patchset but AFAIK it shouldn't affect anything dealing with that code.

Umm... I think this is a bug (maybe). I went to the memberlist thing and found that clicking on the row of letters near the top, which presumably should take you to to the members who's names start with that letter, instead takes you to a page severel pages ahead. Also names that don't start with a capital letter are entirely seperate from the rest.  As an example, clicking "S" took me about halfway through the list, to the names that start with capital "Z".  I was trying to find myself in there... and I encountered difficulties.
Maybe it takes you to the page that would be correct if the lower case letters weren't seperate? idk

[Gramity]

It's been an issue for some time now

Sorting is case sensitive in PostgreSQL.  There is no "simple" solution because it simply does not behave the same way MySQL does (sorting is case insensitive).  Searching for your nick works fine.

I'm reporting two issues.

1. Old issue I've had for a while - The new line character doesn't seem to appear properly in IE9. When I type a line, hit enter twice, and type another line in a post, I should see an empty line between the two lines after I post. However, the empty line will not appear in the final post, it seems like IE9 ignores one of the newline characters. This is an issue for me when I view any post by any member, and for formatting reasons it would be very convenient to be able to see the extra space between lines (for example, they make paragraph breaks a lot easier to read).

2. New issue - I cannot get onto IRC tonight. I'm not sure if this is the proper place to report it, and I'm not sure if it's an issue that only I'm having tonight or if it's everyone.

EDIT: The second issue resolved itself.

EDIT 2: I made a mistake about the browser - I use Windows 7, but the browser is IE 9. I apologize for the confusion, and have editted the report accordingly.

[Edible]

IE9

Yeah, that one's all yours to figure out. <_<

[Momiji]

People still use Internet Explorer?     I thought we eradicated that disease here.

[Zil]

Internet Explorer 9 works perfectly for me. Chrome screws everything up. Firefox is usually fine, but sometimes text appears weird. I find IE is faster and simpler than those others.
