Something broken? Post below and we'll ~~ignore it~~ get to work!

speaking of bugs, we were having an issue yesterday and earlier today where password reset emails were being dropped by outbound forwarders. that should be resolved now. please report if you're still not getting your activation or password reset emails.

The email finally worked for me, apparently =)

When I click someones nick (like your's in this view) I get sent to an

"An Error Has Occurred!

-page.

How do I change my "Custom Title"? There doesn't seem to be an option. I want to get rid of the "\" that somehow got injected. I seem to remember using \' to print ' in one of my coding classes, but don't remember which language. So it seems like something that would easily be overlooked in the import.

My signature got borked as well. When I try to recreate it I run into a 500 character limit. The formatting tags take up a lot of characters so WTF.

And why do swear words get replaced with "puppies"? I like asterisks more than that. Or how about no swear filter at all? Please?

I believe geekhack is flagged as dangerous site by mcafee

Please remove the popup about Tapatalk from appearing when visiting the site while not logged in on an iPad. The iPad should be treated as a desktop browser and the Tapatalk alert doesn't popup on the desktop.

that may actually be coming from a library loaded off the tapatalk servers, and non-removable. will see what we can do though

30-second limit between searches is fine, but does it really have to restart the count every damn time it refuses?!!!

mkawa · « **Reply #8 on:** Sun, 22 July 2012, 02:26:51 »

that's a straight up bug in SMF. i'll file it with the SMF folks.

Pure marketing tactic. Those savages!

I tried searching Ducky Shine 2 and got this error:

Each word must be at least two characters long.

Thepope · « **Reply #11 on:** Tue, 24 July 2012, 07:36:32 »

In fact is search working?

I tried "Ducky Shine" and latest post is April 2012.

Soarer · « **Reply #12 on:** Tue, 24 July 2012, 07:51:49 »

Search is working, but by default it shows results in order of 'relevance'. You could try advanced search instead, which lets you change to showing most recent hits first.

I think date order probably makes most sense for GH...

alaricljs · « **Reply #13 on:** Tue, 24 July 2012, 08:42:39 »

Also there will be references to Ducky Shining that your particular search will miss.

Djuzuh · « **Reply #14 on:** Thu, 26 July 2012, 16:52:55 »

Every refresh now and then Moderate gets in the link bar at top (between search and profile).

Obviously clicking on it gets me an error as I don't have any moderation power.

But still, why do I see it sometimes.

And it seems like it's totally random. I refresh the same page 4 time in a row without the moderation link, and the fifth time it is on the page.

mkawa_ · « **Reply #15 on:** Sat, 28 July 2012, 08:31:48 »

i have absolutely no clue, and i can't repro. if you can figure out how to reproduce it reliably let me know

mkawa · « **Reply #16 on:** Sat, 28 July 2012, 08:53:33 »

i've adjusted search weighting slightly

Hmm. I just tried it out and I'm not sure it's the right way to go - I think it reduces the difference between 'most relevant' and 'most recent' searches too much.

I'm not really sure which kind of search the majority of users would expect to get from a quick search. My guess would be that most quick searches are for recent posts, but that's just a hunch.

mkawa_ · « **Reply #19 on:** Sun, 29 July 2012, 09:40:28 »

this may be something that time will work out. once more people start hitting the search engine heavily we may get a better idea of how to weight the quick search

biochem · « **Reply #22 on:** Mon, 06 August 2012, 18:48:21 »

The password reset isn't working for me, i.e. I'm not getting an email.

I did reset my password after the GeekHack reboot, but I can't remember my new password. I can only log in from one computer where FireFox remembers it for me.

Thanks in advance.

alaricljs · « **Reply #23 on:** Mon, 06 August 2012, 19:22:09 »

Just as a note re: firefox passwords, you can find out what is saved as your password quite easily through the Options dialog.

Not counting the macbook - i have the older non-chiclet version.

We had a slight problem earlier, but we're back now.
