Issues after the update

You know, why do we even bother any longer?

Maybe we should all just call it a day. That's what they seem to want. Those of us who still want to hang around in the product forums... do that. For the rest, this whole thing has become a joke.

Between the bannings, locked threads, deleted posts... it's worse than a kindergarden. At least, in a kindergarden, if someone cries there's a helping hand. Here, it's the opposite.

So, in all seriousness, maybe we should all call it a day and move on. Visit the individual product forums if we want... impart and absorb what we can... and leave it at that. The old forums are never going to come back.

And what we have here is no longer a joke. It's a nightmare.

End of story....

Situation on switching on today:

• Firefox/Mac: Logged out after less than 12 hours of logging in. I logged in normally, only to the Forums (only lower Welcome).
• Safari/Vista and Eplorer/Vista (computer 36 hours off, same situation in both): Logged in as Claudio_González, managed to log out, logged back with my normal identity, received both Welcomes (upper and lower).

I am still logged in, for days now. And I am still I.

With my never using the Camera Icon, and apart from the occasional line break, which I just delete, I have only seen improvements, including the ability to just start typing the post, or unchanged behaviour.

I have just read this:

This is gettin interesting. My very naive question is: what did we gain? Not even the 404 error got corrected!

seeing something interesting... after a reboot, i'm logged out when restarting ff3.5.5 (winxp sp3) - lounge and this forum are bookmark tabs so go right in... i click the "login/register" link and am automatically logged back in without having to re-enter username/pw. note that last time i logged in on this system i took the advice of someone who posted here about the "remember me" box being broken, so i DIDN'T check that box.

now it DOES seem to rememebr me, and what's more, even when i'm "logged out", a single click seems to log me back in.

cutting and saving this post in case i get the boot when i click post. (but note i was able to get as far as entering a reply in this thread).

anyone else seeing that? would def be an improvement if it were a feature, not a bug!

Queues are back!

2 hours and counting:

First, a report of a new problem that doesn't seem to be very common.

The first time I tried to come into these forums after the last change, I found that my identity had been changed to Claudio_González, with a very different profile, no avatar and no picture of mine. This happened in Safari/vista, Explorer/Vista and Firefox Mac. My identity was restored without my intervention not long afterwards, both in Explorer/Vista and in Firefox/Mac. As for Safari/Vista, I managed to restore it manually only next day, by a procedure I posted elsewhere.

After that, all went well until yesterday morning, when I found that I had been logged out in Firefox/Mac, but not in the other two computers. I just logged in normally, and all went well again. Until last night. I didn't use my Win machine in the whole afternoon and, when I came to the forums to check the situation before switching it off, I found that my identity had been changed again to Claudio_González, both in Safari and in Explorer, while >I remained logged in Firefox/Mac. Partly because it was too late, and partly because I wanted to introduce a time difference between logins in them, I only re logged in in Explorer. For that, I followed the procedure described in the new FAQ, which this time worked. After logging in, I found that apparently I had only been logged in the forums, but not in the Store, which made sense and didn't worry me:

When I switched on my computers this morning, the situation was as follows:

• Logged out in Firefox/Mac. Logged in without problem except no Welcome in the upper row (as in the image above) for a couple of seconds, but welcomed afterwards.
• Still logged in Explorer/Vista, no change (no Welcome in the upper row).
• In Safari/Vista, the situation had changed from logged in with a wrong identity, to logged out completely. I logged in normally without problems, and got both Welcomes at once.

Unfortunately, I don't have the time and I don't have the knowledge to try to collect all the data that is now required to report properly/formally such problems.

Now, to specific aspects aspects discussed in this thread.

• These buttons have been there, and working, for months:

(I know because I use them all the time, specially the one at the right). I have just checked, and they both worked in all my three configurations.

• As can be seen in this message, I have had no problem in inserting JPGs using the camera button.
• I get the extra linefeed, but not always, and apparently on the first line only (not this time, but it´s there in my previous messages).

I may be forgetting other issues, but things are becoming unstable in this box, so I'll try to post before I lose everything.

Addition: I did forget to mention that, when I post a message, I am now been taken to the original post, not to mine.

Early yesterday, I had an issue of not being able to post; I managed to log out and in again which did not solve the issue. After closing down FF and restarting, I could post normally again.

I get the line breaks, but rarely.

I have never seen the added code.

I always blockquote the lot and then cut out parts and sometimes write one or more answers into the quote in a different colour. This works the same way as always, with the occasional mess and and different leading.

I have never used the Camera Icon or attached files; links to uploaded images/files have worked as usual.

These observations are from the TST area, 9 hours before PST.

Ah, but at least we have learned that a workaround for the 4

04 error is to refresh the page!

(Extra linefeed by courtesy of the software).

Addition: and that a workaround for the extra linefeeds is to remove them manually!!!

Yes, the Hard Return seems to actually be getting worse. I just look up more often and Back

space (happened again) to correct (did not do that here, or later). It seems to be in the first few lines of the r

eply (happened again), but not always. When it does happen, the little justification icons in the editing scr

een's (there it goes again) Toolbar will flicker in IE 7.5.

I have yet to get any image to attach via the "camera" icon. Have tried all of the approved and sized them to ridiculously small sizes. Nothing. Yet, judging by post dates, it seems that others still can. Looking back on some of my older posts, with those attachments, it seems that all are still up.

Wow, all of these improvements!
