I’m having a log in problem since this morning: everytime I open the link to ths forum in a new window I’m logged out. I tried everything: I ticked “Log me on automatically each visit” and also told my browser to remember the password. However if I close the window, when I open it again I’m logged out. I’m not sure if the issue is with my PC or with the website, but I thought of mentioning it just in case.
I have same problem, so you don’t need to feel different anymore
Then it’s an issue with the server, 'cause I surely never had this problem before yesterday morning…
Forum address has changed to vcmi.antypika.aplus.pl (it was vcmi.eu ). The old one is still working (but after logging in you’ll be redirected). But when you use old address (eg. from bookmarks) to enter forum you won’t be logged in.
Everything should work fine if you use only the new address, update your bookmarks.
Sorry for trouble.
Ah, thanks. That explains it.
Bookmark updated and everything’s fine now.
Google still shows the old URL though, when searching for VCMI Project. Is that possible to change?
Best regards,
Steven.
Not really, since old URL is still functional. But it shouldn’t cause any significant problems.
I come again with a detail which is certainly the last of your worries.
I’m not sure if this is in your hands at all, but the icon indicating user’s browser is still showing the Mozilla dino head for me, while I’m using Chrome for quite some months already. As a Chrome fan, I would be curious to see how many other users of this forum are using it as well.
It’s possible and should be quite simple job.
Now I really don’t have much time (end-of-term exams…) but I’ll look at this in a week’s time.
Thanks and good-luck with the exams then!
I’ve added Google Chrome (and Windows Vista as well) to the list of recognized browsers (systems).
Check if it is properly recognized in your new posts.
Working fine. Thanks!
LE: It works only for the Chronicles layout. It doesn’t work in SubSilver.
Hi,
Another (small?) request: would it be possible to implement ‘strikethrough’ functionality on this forum? I would have needed here for example, when I realized I reported the wrong bug.
I’ve seen most forums have it implemented in the … format, or as [strike]…[/strike].
I’ve added it:
[s]stricken text[/s]
Is rendered as:
stricken text
Thanks for suggestion
Some issues regarding the SubSilver Board Style:
-
Strikethrough is not visible because it’s white like the background (should have the same color as the text font).
-
The Google Chrome icon is not loaded correctly (on forum posts; we have it though in Statistics page).
-
Also the Windows Vista/7 icon is not correctly loaded in SubSilver.
-
On the homepage, we don’t see the English “VCMI Project…” title, but a text in Polish that says something else.
[size=75]And on a separate note, for some reason (I don’t know if it’s only my PC or sth else), I have issues accessing the forum using the bookmark link (in all browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Safari, Flock). Only by googling it I manage to get to the forum. And I also cannot use normal posting anymore, only Quick Reply. When I try normal PostReply or to access the forum from bookmarks, I get an error saying the webpage may be temporary down.
EDIT: Seems it was only my PC. A restart solved the problem. However, if somebody has some ideas what may have caused that, let me know if there another way to solve the problem next time (other than restart). :)[/size]
New small issue with the Statistics page of the forum:
Some lines are now displayed in Polish i/o English (in the Age Statistics & Genders sections). It must be quite recent as I remember seeing it still in English a few days ago.
Seems the issue in the Statistics page has been solved.
I found however an issue with the ratings in the Download section. I gave an 8 to a VCMI release, and the average rating for it went actually down, from 7.xx to 6.xx. I thought I may have chosen the wrong value by mistake, and I rated another one. But same problem: I gave rate above the current one, and still the new average value went down i/o going up. The good part of it, is that this means in reality the ratings for the VCMI releases must have been way higher, and not what we see now in there.
Maybe our forum thinks that VCMI doesn’t deserve for such a high rating :).
Could it be browser related? In Safari, the rating doesn’t work at all (I select the rating, I click “Rate File”, but the rating is not updated).
EDIT: I see on this post that the Safari browser is not correctly identified, but it’s shown as Mozilla. I was actually surprised to see there are still so many users of the old Mozilla in the Statistics page. Could it be that many of them are Safari users instead? It would make more sense, considering the fact that Safari is like the 4th browser out there.
I found another browser identified incorrectly - SRWare Iron. It’s build on the sourcecode of Chromium, with the difference that it removes all the automatic uploads to Google, which increases your privacy and makes it a bit faster (so they say, because Chrome already loads almost any page instantly, so I wouldn’t know how to test a potentially even faster browser :p).
So the forum should identify it with the Chromium icon, not Mozilla as you can see for this post.
@Tow: I know you added the Chromium icon for Chrome. Was it an easy change or not really? I wonder if it’s something I could figure out myself how to fix, to spare you the time (though I doubt it can be done with moderator rights).
