tkam Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 I upgraded the forums to vBulletin 3.8 today please let me know if you find any problems.
Dreadhead Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 I upgraded the forums to vBulletin 3.8 today please let me know if you find any problems. I knew something was different... not in the major details but in the micro-details and the timing of the page-loads
tkam Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Posted January 19, 2009 Well I did also upgrade the little stats module shown at the bottom of the main forum page .
Fitz Posted January 19, 2009 Report Posted January 19, 2009 Yay, now I can edit posts again and bring up the list of smilies and such. They weren't working right for me for a while in Firefox (had to load up Konqueror to edit anything).
Smeggy Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 For some reason I'm unable to post from Firefox this morning but it was fine last night... any clues?
tkam Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Posted January 20, 2009 What version? I use firefox pretty much exclusively and have never had a problem.
Smeggy Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 It's 3.0.5 Everything was swimming before I went t bed about 2:30 and this morning I type in a reply and it tells me I needto fill in the subject (already there) and a message of at least I character... I closed and restarted FF, then I rebooted the PC, still the same. I'm wondering if some FF addon might be causing problems.
Smeggy Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Okay, trying this from my other PC So it looks like my firefox on my other machine is unhappy about something. I'll try uninstalling recently updated plugins.
postjack Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Smeggy, I'm having the exact same problem in Firefox. I'm on IE now. edit: yup, getting the "The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 1 characters." even though I have a message in there. IE is fine.
aardvark baguette Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Maybe I was logged onto HC from another computer, but I didnt see any new PM messages this afternoon on my desktop, then when I logged on with my netbook this evening, I noticed 4 or 5 PMs, some from yesterday evening. I think its probably something on my end, like being logged on over night on the netbook (not verified, didnt think about it at the time), but I figured its worth noting here nonetheless.
Duggeh Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 No problems with firefox here. I'm on XP x64.
en480c4 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I forget if this was covered when you migrated from SMF, but is there any way to get the notification that a post has been added while typing a reply when you hit Post? That was a great feature.
tkam Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Posted January 21, 2009 There's currently no feature like that in vBulletin. Might be available as a mod or something though I'll check into it.
tkam Posted January 21, 2009 Author Report Posted January 21, 2009 Almost forgot, for those of you with firefox that are having the problems what extensions/add-ons do you have installed and what anti-virus/firewall software do you have installed?
aardvark baguette Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 I dont think I am having a 'problem' but I have FF with Ad Block Plus and Hyperwords at home and office. Norton at home, V-Shield at office. FWIW.
Torpedo Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 No problems at all using FF at home on Windows XP (SP3) and at work, also FF but on XP SP-1. No custom add-ons but the spell corrector and RIP which only works when at HF.
Smeggy Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 Well mine spontaneously started working again I have no idea what's going on. I hadn't restarted or anything, it just started working again after a few hours. Just a glitch in the Matrix....
guzziguy Posted January 21, 2009 Report Posted January 21, 2009 No problems using FF 3.0.5 and McAfee anti-virus software on Windows XP.
postjack Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Almost forgot, for those of you with firefox that are having the problems what extensions/add-ons do you have installed and what anti-virus/firewall software do you have installed? anti-virus is AVG, firefox 3.05, addons include adblock plus, downthemall, imageshack toolbar, and Remove It Permanently.
postjack Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Here's another weird thing: on the User CP > Log Out bar, all my little down triangles are gone in firefox. For example, when I click on Chat Room, it just takes me straight into the Chat Room, I have no drop down menu giving me the option of opening the Chat Room in a separate window. The down triangles are present in IE but not FF.
GPH Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Postjack, have you tried clearing the cache or reinstalling Firefox?

Maybe you should have an exorcism for your computer.
postjack Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 test. looks like we are back in business, I'm posting this from FF. My triangles are back as well.
