I'm just wondering why sometimes smillies work and sometimes they don't.

And what happened to the 'thumbs up' guy?

I also see the text instead of the smilies sometimes, but not sufficiently often to especially notice it. It probably happens as much when I make a new post as when reviewing someone else's post.

Like this post: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=33167.msg977990#msg977990

All I see is colon eek colon twice - no icon.

In Firefox, Chrome and Safari under Win 7.

I'm now seeing this smiley as a green vendor star:

And this one looks like a KeyPop novelty keycap in green with a white chicobo:

This one's a blank rectangle:

I think the paint is finally getting to you.

Photoelectric · « **Reply #303 on:** Tue, 30 July 2013, 08:26:50 »

I'll take a screenshot when Im off my iPad. But you are probably partially right about the paint. Also soldering fumes

edit: neat, they look fine on my computer screen, but totally messed up on the ipad. I'll post my screenshot from Safari.

It looks like your browser cache is screwed-up.

Not sure if anyone's posted about it, or if it's even a bug really, but in Spy, the times don't update with the posts. Unless you refresh it consistently will update to "0 minutes ago".

rknize · « **Reply #306 on:** Tue, 30 July 2013, 10:58:47 »

Yes, that has been a shortcoming of the current Spy since the beginning. A replacement is in the works.

When I click on the "last post icon" on the forum Spy page I get redirected to some random spot in the thread half of the time. The other half of the time I am redirected to the last post, correctly.

oTurtlez · « **Reply #309 on:** Tue, 30 July 2013, 11:08:16 »

Yeah, if it could bring you to the physically last post posted that'd be preferable. As of now it takes me to the OP.

Is it taking you to the last place you read the thread from perhaps?

Tym · « **Reply #311 on:** Tue, 30 July 2013, 11:15:26 »

It takes you to the latest post you've not seen. So if you have not read a thread it will take you the OP.

Oh. Well, then it should say "last unread post."

Thanks!

Every time I click on this thread in Spy it takes me to the OP, so I might be doing something wrong

I sometimes find smileys don't appear. In particular the laughing fact and the thumbs up.

Just noticed that I can un-watch just about every kind of thread except a thread that's been locked by the thread creator. I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but I definitely ran into this problem with a WTS thread created by user "Amble."

I tried marking it unread, and then reading it again, etc. I tried many different things, but the only thing that worked was a workaround suggested by user "Soarer," where he told me to copy the thread link and edit the location of the link so that the action listed in the link was replaced with the "action=unwatch;" string. That worked like a charm.

Cheers,

K

So it seems like some of the emoticon issues are related to quoting. I just replied to a thread and if I have the quote properly setup the smiley faces don't show, but if I break the quote they do show up.....not sure if coincidence or cause....

Seems it may be the [more ] tag added when quoting a post with an image...[/more]

Thanks, I'll add this to the bug list. Work has been rough lately, so my GH-hacking time (meta GH?) has been limited.

Leslieann · « **Reply #320 on:** Sat, 24 August 2013, 21:34:25 »

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but when you verify your account (or change your email), the verification page is the old style look.

Not a real issue, but jarring going from white to orange and black, then you log in, and back to white.

rknize · « **Reply #321 on:** Sat, 24 August 2013, 23:20:50 »

That's because it falls back to the default theme when you are logged out (default is Nostalgia now).

There was a DB change that came with 2.0.5. We don't impose any limits, though.

Hi,

Today, I can't seem to navigate to www.geekhack.org. It times out, so I figured there was an outage. However, just plain geekhack.org, without www, works fine

Thanks!

That's very interesting, I can confirm that the www times out for me as well.

Glad I'm not alone!

Also glad GH isn't actually down, though it's hard on the muscle memory to leave off the www.

The_Ed · « **Reply #328 on:** Sun, 01 September 2013, 22:23:59 »

Chrome seems to always leave off the http://www., what browser are you using?

macguy80 · « **Reply #329 on:** Sun, 01 September 2013, 22:29:19 »

Firefox 23.0.1, but that isn't a recent change.

Yes, typing www.geekhack.org used to redirect to geekhack.org, it would seem, but now, it just times out instead of redirecting.

Not sure if this is a bug but I'm going to put this here anyways. So when I use the more/spoiler tags in a post, and I hit preview, the preview's more tag doesn't work

. Is that a glitch with how those tags work?

Photoelectric · « **Reply #338 on:** Fri, 11 October 2013, 19:25:23 »

I've noticed that too--been like that for a while. Sometimes it works fine and sometimes it doesn't. Saving your revision and reloading the page makes the preview work again.

Some browsers have backspace as a shortcut to go back a page, is that the issue?

My laptop is really bad about doing that.

This is a web-browser issue, not a GH issue. Most web browsers use Backspace as a shortcut for the "Back" button. Check your browsers settings to see if you can disable this.

I've been doing a bit more poking around and found that if you preview your post with the "More" tags in a private message, the tags will work. They won't work in a post preview though.

Been having a really annoying issue where sometimes threads decide that they don't want to load, and I get a checkerboard as if there's no information there.

It seems to happen most often in off topic, but I don't think that has anything to do with it.
