When Is This Site Going To Fix Its Software?

17 posts in this topic

I post mainly from my phone, so i use the mobile skin to preserve bandwidth for faster browsing.

Problem is, the mobile theme isnt stripping html tags and special characters from posts when you reply to another post/topic.
Very irritating.

I'm familiar with this board's software (have used it on a previous site of mine) and am a PHP developer by trade so if you need assistance, PM me, I'll fix it for peanuts.

Thank you for your feedback. This is a problem that we are currently investigating. Knowing that you posted from the mobile skin is a big help as we look to diagnose what's causing this issue. Thanks again for the heads up!

No problem; for what it's worth it's a fairly simple problem to fix.

Wait, there's a mobile skin? If so, where do I find it?

I always wanted to come on here with my phone but wasn't sure what to do.

Bottom left corner of website. There is a drop down menu. Select "IP.Board Mobile"

I use that on my phone and the IP.Board for the computer.

Hi,
came to report technical problems - probably glitches with the blog software. Sorry if they had already been mentioned/discussed (frankly, I have no time reading through all the posts), or if I should have posted it in another forum (in that case a link would be most welcome)

There are two issues. Both of them minor, rather inconveniences than real problems.

- Whenever a new article is posted on the "Home" page, there's "Leave a reply" at the end - but for a time - until about 10 minutes after the article is posted - there's no comment box to write the comment. It means there's no way to post comments for about 10 minutes. And, as I see, it's not only me, there are, indeed, no comments at all until the comment box finally appears. I reported it about 2 months ago, I've been told it would be fixed - but it's still not.

- Sometimes the "Oldest (comment) First" link above the column of comments under the articles doesn't work. The browser recognizes it as a link, the cursor changes to the pointing hand - but nothing happens. It'll only work after the page is reloaded - sometimes once, sometimes a couple of times. (Update: now it doesn't seem to work (under Firefox 4.0) at all, no matter how many times I refresh the page. It works under IE, though.)

I know these are minor things. But when I reported the absence of the comment box the first time, the moderator encouraged me to let you know if there are any issues. So I did.

PS: OS: Win XP SP2, browser: Firefox 3.6 and 4.0

Thanks Bio--the webmaster is aware and the mods are keeping a list. Like Maryland1 said I think they are waiting until May and rolling out everything.
