drakaan Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I noticed in the old forum, as you changed the width of the window the boards on the main page did not change width. However, on this forum they do. That would be a feature, as opposed to a bug. The new layout is dynamic, rather than static, so that if you resize the window, the contents flow to fill the available space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drakaan Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Rick, do you have a .pdn of the current logo for forum users to play with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 No. I do not make that available. I will fix up the logo image when I've got some free time.

Hellfire010 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Drakaan, so was your "bug." I figured this was still the best place, since the title is "post "bugs" here." By the way, you triple posted. >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Ranger Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 You should update the link on the main site, it still goes to the old site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yata Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 The Forumer admins are setting up a redirect from the old forum (paintdotnet.12.forumer.com) to the new one (paintdotnet.forumer.com). The redirects should be working within a few days.

Ghost Ranger Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I knew someone would say that . However, linking to the old url, only to go to the new one is a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 I updated the redirect files but didn't notice that the main page links directly. I'll update it this evening.

Ghost Ranger Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Another thing it says that everyone is offline, even me. Edit: I changed it so I'm not hidden and apparently I'm still offline.

(which explains everyone else being offline) I can witness this offline problem. Another thing: I was logged in (username was shown where logout button is), wrote a post and as I submitted it, this thing said "You are not logged in". I had to "re-log in" and had to write everything again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrddin Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 These problems could be due to the fact that phpBB3 is still in its Release Candidate, so even though most bugs have been ironed out some may still arise here and there. I could be wrong of course. Anyway, I don't think Rick has any control of the problems you are facing, however, having never seen the powers an admin has I can't be sure of that. Let's face it, it's nothing malicious. Quote How to Save Your Images under Different File Types My dA Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preahkumpii Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I am having trouble searching the new forums. For instance, I searched for "alpha masking" after manually finding the forum post in the new forum, and the engine said there were no results. The post was there, the search (I did check search criteria) did not see or find the posts.

Matoyak Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Guys, keep in mind that MOST of these glitches are PHPBB3's fault, NOT Rick's. He has almost no control over most of these problems, they are just minor glitches that come with PHPBB3 being in a Release Candidate state. Also, "www.searchpaint.net" seems to be a better solution than the forum search anyways, so go ahead and use that, preahkumpii. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I really miss the quick reply box. When can we have that back? Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matoyak Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 I really miss the quick reply box. When can we have that back? PhPbb3 Does not yet HAVE a quick reply mod. PhPbb3 is still in release candidate mode, in so far as I know, and even if it isn't, then there STILL isn't a quick reply mod for any phpbb3 forum out there, as of yet. So I guess we can get it back as soon as a nonbuggy, reliable, safe, Quick Reply Mod is made. Whenever that'll be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trippdoctor Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hmm I just noticed something links to the old forums don't work................ Such as the links to pugins in tutorial section. Which means tutorials with custom plugins will have to have each link updated........ Quote Trippdoctor | PDN Fanatics | Get Paint .NET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 PhPbb3 Does not yet HAVE a quick reply mod. PhPbb3 is still in release candidate mode Generally release candidates are feature-complete. Hence the name, it's a candidate to be the final release. Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob.

He has almost no control over most of these problems, they are just minor glitches that come with PHPBB3 being in a Release Candidate state. I think no one says they are Rick's faults. But the sense of this topic is to post bugs and we are invited to do so by Rick himself. I as simple user don't know if I can provide help to detect and to solve bugs when I'm posting them, so I post them hoping it's support for other people.

Ash Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Everyone check you avatar, some got shrunk and some got Height & Width crossed (120x160 --> 160x120) And the board will check the Avatar file size as well.

Ash Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Everyone, also check your Tuts, I have already found (and fixed) 3 that were messed up by the upgrade.

Myrddin Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I agree with both your points, Ash. I can't have my larger sized avatar because of the 20 KB limit and I've seen a lot of posts that, and corrected one of my own tutorials, have funky characters replacing common symbols such as ' " - ~ amongst others. The crossing of avatar dimensions was fixed a few days ago by Rick, although I did have re-upload my avatar so some may still be in the previous switched state.

cjmcguinness Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 I am having trouble searching the new forums. For instance, I searched for "alpha masking" after manually finding the forum post in the new forum, and the engine said there were no results. The post was there, the search (I did check search criteria) did not see or find the posts. I am also having trouble searching the forum. It seems that posts carried over from the old forum are not indexed and therefore when searching no results are being found (a major nuisance, especially for new users as they will be posting questions and mods/users will be 'politely' asking them to use the search facility; it's not their fault that it is not working so everyone'll have to go easy on some fundamental questions from newbies). Additionally, the new Paint.NET search page is also not returning results of posts made prior to the upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
