Starting *Now*: Forum Performance

[webmaster]

I have been tweaking some things but not at that time.

Great job Joe, it now takes me back to my new post when I make a new post:thumbsup:

Being an Admin can be a pain:happyyes:

 

[hurk27]

That doesn't happen to me, when I post it takes me straight to my new post. I use Firefox.

not sure when he fixed it, but it's not doing it anymore.

 

[hurk27]

wait a minute, it just stopped

 

[hurk27]

Well thats strange, it worked for post 82 and another post in another thread, but these last two post i got dumped at the top of the page again.:?

This is the first thread I've clicked, but using Firefox on the Mac it worked right. I'll check with Safari on my phone here in a bit.

ETA: I've had one success and a dozen miscues on the phone.

 

[hurk27]

maybe it is IE 8:?

Yep still doing it, H'mmmm

That's funny, after posting this, I went back to "today's post" and it had a "404" error. I tried this several times with the same result. I closed the site and tried to reopened it and it took to me to Google (my homepage).:huh: It did this for about 10 minutes and then it opened up just fine. Not sure if Webmaster had the site down or what.

ETA. I lost connection to the site again soon after this. I tried for several minutes before I had to leave, but it went to the "404" when trying to refresh, and to Google if you closed the site and tried to reopen it. Not sure when it came back up, I was gone most of the day.

I know this is a bit off topic, but I thought I'd mention a couple tweaks this morning. I finally figured out how to remove the "default post icon" (

in the "Thread Display Options") from the posts. I had that halfway done back when I was fiddling with this a lot.

Also, I added a code cycle field to our profiles. You can add what code cycle you are under by editing your profile here. I made it mandatory and threw a little trick in there to foil spambots.

Let me know if any of these changes are a problem. I think it might look better to put the

back.

I entered my code cycle, but it only shows up in my profile. Would it not be better if we could someone's code cycle, like his/her location, when he/she posts.

 

[George Stolz]

Yeah, that was my original thought too - but it's not just a setting.

 

[Dennis Alwon]

I updated by typing 2007 and it did nothing. Is that appropriate since I already am a member. Have you tried signing up with George 3...

 

[George Stolz]

Try typing 20008.

 

[Dennis Alwon]

Try typing 20008.

I did --- My point was it allowed me to do 2007 also

 

[George Stolz]

That's true - any four digit number will work, which will make it easier for us to see the spambots.

Gotcha-- I thought it was only going to accept the ones with the correct dates. :thumbsup:

If you want the Code cycle to show up in each post, just add it to your location with "NEC" ahead of it, it will come out just below your location if there is enough characters in the line:happyyes:

That's a cheap fix, I love it.

When clicking on the "go to first new post" button, it only takes you to the page and not the newest post.

It is NOT and IE problem as it acts the sam while trying to view on an iPhone.
