Dave Ambrose Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I upgraded the forum software this afternoon. I expect this to resolve most, if not all, of the issues we've been having. Please comment here if you encounter anything odd. (besides your fellow forum members 😀) We've instituted some new anti-spam measures. We'll start approving new accounts again. If you see any obvious spam posts, please report it as spam. This will activate additional measures to stop the spammers. One of the new measures is automatic post moderation for members with a low number of approved posts. Please don't be alarmed if you encounter this. It should help us a lot in the long run.

Kennyboy Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Dave, I have noticed that you still are not able to go to the next page while viewing a topic. Using Chrome for my browser for reference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinkybritches Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Absolutely nothing has changed for me when using my phone with Chrome or Brave browsers. Latest Android version. DuckDuckGo browser still works, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Can-Con Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 No change here with Chrome either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ambrose Posted November 25, 2023 Author Share Posted November 25, 2023 Drat it. I'm still having some problems with Chrome. On to next step. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthehobbyguy Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Thanks for doing the update Dave. Was hoping it would resolve the issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Woodruff Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 No change for me w/ Chrome. Do I have to delete some cookies? I logged out and back in but that didn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 (edited) All my "activity" has disappeared from my profile page...so there's no way to view reactions without clicking the "notification bell". EDIT: Looks like it's affected everyone...everyone I've checked so far, anyway. EDIT 2: Not EVERYONE apparently. Of the ones I've checked "Slusher's" activity still shows on his profile page EDIT 3: "Activity" can still be accessed by clicking "see their activity" (or "see my activity" if it's your own page) in the far right of the bar adjacent to the profile pic, so at least the data hasn't disappeared, just one access path.

Claude Thibodeau Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Hi! Same here: all my activity (last 365 days and beyond) has "vanished". Even the method indicated by Ace (above) fails. Plus Chrome still doen't allow changing pages. CT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Haven't noticed any relevant changes, still have to use Firefox to submit reply to a topic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack L Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 now I can not go to the next page on unread content using chrome or microsoft edge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobthehobbyguy Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 With the new update I still have the functionality that I had before with Chrome using http. I suspect the change in the post history is a settings change. One new feature I like is in the previews there are small thumbnails that show and they load quickly. Also noticed that when a scan is done there is a message saying it's processing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodbuildNY Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I can’t use the site using Bing , problems being pics don’t load/show , can’t reply to any topic other than one I start , activity is gone and site keeps locking up. I’m using Duckduckgo right now so that I can use the site. This way the only issue is activity is still gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doorsovdoon Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I haven't experienced any problems with the site since I joined a couple years ago. I use Opera. The only issue I do get sometimes is pictures not loading, but I think that's to do with the file size of the pics the OP's import... and the age of my laptop I'd imagine.

Keef Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 I’ve noticed the “views” counter on topics isn’t showing any activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chariots of Fire Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Had this issue for a while now. At the top of the page is tells me that I have a response to my posts. However when I look at my post the response is not there. Some never seem to get added to the post no matter how long after the response has been up.

RSchnell Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 No change on my end. Can't leave likes or go to the next page unless I right click on the page icon and open in a new tab. I'm on Chrome primarily and it does the same thing on Edge. Clearing cache & cookies didn't help either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDSchindler Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Using Firefox, I still have to right click and select "Open link in New Tab" to see additional pages of a topic. Lately, I am getting a message that the current page is slowing down Firefox with an option to stop it from loading. Essentially, I see no changes with Firefox but greatly appreciate the effort.
