Discovered Upgrade Issues

[Dan Zollman]

Before I signed on, the thread display mode defaulted to Threaded Mode. I think outside visitors may not be familiar with that and won't realize how to read the thread...one of the other modes would be better for default.

Brandon,

I'll keep a running list in this post of things that people post after me, just to try and keep it all in one place. Hope that helps.

Also, the edited post information appears above the Attending: information

When I was in CD Media and clicked on the "Private Messages" link in the top right box in the page header, it brought me to this [nonexistent] page:

I don't know if this is on purpose... but you can no longer upload an animated GIF as an avatar. If this is on purpose, would you like me to change mine to a non-animated image?

When I changed it back from the super-general "2 weeks ago, 1 day ago, etc." I went too far. "today / yesterday" is back now.

Thats part of the whole usercp reputation fix that has yet to happen.

Ah yes -- I'll have to see how easy that is to write a plugin to accomplish it.

Weird. 15 minutes is the normal logout if you don't click 'Remember me' when logging in. Try clearing your cookies & cache .. see if that helps anything.

It wasn't intentional. Are you sure it isn't just the image you're trying to upload? If you can't get it .. e-mail it to me and I'll give it a shot (or fix whats wrong with it ..).

[Brandon Martus]

I've installed a plugin that shows the last reputation given in your user cp. It is a temporary fix until I write a plugin that works like it used to (multi-paged, with an option to PM them).

And one more I noticed: Threads get marked as read on the new posts search, but then come back as unread on the recent threads part of the portal.

Edit: Also, when I suggest a spotlight, it takes me back to the spotlight nomination page instead of back to the post.

It's not that important, but when you click the "Preview Post" button, there is no longer a "Submit Reply" button under the preview. It's still down where you type, so it's not a big problem.

That could be an "anti-spam" feature that helps to keep what little spam bots roaming CD from posting in every thread that is listed as "previous".

Brandon,

It's not an issue... but the fortune cookie thing that you get when you give someone rep is a little creepy...

You know, I tried this and I have to agree that it's a little odd. Is it supposed to be sarcasm or something else?
