The forum software will be updated at 15:45 CST. Shouldn't take more than 1/2 hour.
-
Dead on time ;)
Please report any troubles.
-
It reset my autologin flag, so I wasn't logged in. Other than that, looks fine.
-
looks fine, and i liked the other layout i had for two minutes or so even more. :)

You can change the theme in your profile :o
-
my rss feeds have died.
Can you confirm the new url for RSS for the forum?
Thanks
-
I can't Mark As Read - I get the error:
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
I've logged out and in several times - no difference. I've used another browser, still no joy.

Looks like I broke it. I'll get it back as soon as I can...

I just cleared the session cookies. Try again. If you can't get it to work, try deleting your local cookie (yabb.jriver.com cookie YABBSE151)

The boards have a .0 after them now. If you add that to the rss link it will fix your problem. The new version supports subboards so I guess that is where the change happened.
So for mediajukebox for example, you use board=2.0 instead of board=2
-
working again now thanks!

Mark as Read still fails.

can't quote?? I get a popup window that proclaims:

Unable to load the 'quotefast' template.

Thanks for the update. But, still, can not post images unless I post them on a website first. It would be cool if anyone can post images uploaded from the computer. So I can show anyone here if I have trouble with Media Center I can let y'all know with pictures.

Quoting works fine here. Using the default theme.
EDIT: Using Firefox 2.0 on Windows XP SP2 (Pro). Also used with OSX 10.4.8 and Firefox 2.0 with no problems.

I couldn't find a cookie like you described and so I had to resort to, even though I didn't want to, deleting all cookies. Still get the same problem upon loggin in. Using IE 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519CO

Hi,
since this update the forum is completely broken for me in Firefox2, but more or less fine in IE7 on Vista RC1 (having problems marking read: session is lost).

It works fine for me in both windows and linux with firefox2. Can you tell me more about your setup and what problems you are having (what themes and language settings)?
-

Sorry I can't duplicate this. What theme and language settings are you using in the forum??

I think the RSS feeds are updating absurdly slowly. The general "news" RSS feed still lists this post as the most recent posting (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=37514.0) (Today at 13:54:04). Current time is 14:30-ish here.
It certainly wasn't instantaneous before, but it seems to be behind by quite a bit now.
-
Which theme are you using??
I was using the top-most choice, "board and forum default"
I changed that to the SMF default, and the quotes work OK with that.
I think the logo could perhaps use a little touch-up in photoshop....
(http://www.theganghut.co.uk/pics/ia/logo.jpg)
-
this theme is OK, I quite like it, except for the fact that the "New" flag is placed at the end of the thread title. I much prefer the flag to be at the start of the title, as this puts them into a pseudo column that makes it so much easier to see what's new and what's not.
Also, I've specified that my email address be kept private, but the board default appears to be displaying it, or is that just for my, logged in, benefit?
-
Clicking on the icon "new" goes to the top of the thread instead of scrolling to the first unread post here.

It's hidden to me.

Yeah, it looks like it's only visible to the user.

It looks like the "board and forum" default of the converted classic theme is somewhat broken. I'll probably hack the menu changes into the normal classic theme and the smf default and move everyone who is on the converted theme to the classic theme (it should look the same).

I'll change the "new" flag as well. It's just a bit of a pain to find that one in the code. I think just about everyone likes it at the front.

I guess the reason the Updates do not go too smooth is because of Mods To The Code Or Is It The Forum Software?
When I Upgraded My "WowBB" Forum Software I did not have a problem (they made it Idiot proof, and thats what i needed).

Hi bob,
It works fine for me in both windows and linux with firefox2. Can you tell me more about your setup and what problems you are having (what themes and language settings)?
it seems to be somehow connected to my firefox profile.... created a new one an (apart from marking read) everything was fine....
to fix my current profile I tried quite a few things:
- cleared my cache, cookies for *.jriver.com, session authentications, ....
- loged out and back in
- changed my forum theme (from default)
- tried to run firefox2 in safe mode (disabling all extensions)
- changed my prefered browsing language back to German (an a German VistaRC1, using an English Firefox2)
it just didn't help... I'll have to digg a little deeper tomorrow... any hints?
All I can see is a white page with a few headlines and links to the sub forums (I can even navigate to see posts on white pages....) - it looks like no theme is active.....
Ingo
-
I wonder if it is language related? Perhaps the added languages don't work right with the default board theme. I'm working on the classic theme right now to see if I can make it work like the converted theme. I know that the added languages are in there for sure. You might want to try that theme with German (It looks like there are utf-8 and non-utf-8 choices for German).

It was kind of a major upgrade though the board still looks similar to the old one. I didn't have any trouble with the other board I run this software on but this forum is more complex and has many more users.

Languages: I thought about this as well and changed my default language from English to German and back - it didn't change anything...
Theme: switched to the classic theme: it didn't change anything...

-
Try again tomorrow when the local sessions expire and we'll see if anything is different. I'll keep looking. I've still got plenty of changes to make.
-
Just thought I'd mention... I'm using the Forum or Board Default theme and I've seen no issues whatsoever. Of course, I'm a pretty plain vanilla english-speaker so... ::)
-
The converted theme is now the classic theme. Please let me know if this fixed problems you were having or created new ones.
-
I was Having A Few Problems (Mark All Messages As Read)
it would error.
So i went in just now changed the theme (from default was the first in the list) to one of the other themes and then changed the theme back and now i do not get the error.

Still having RSS problems:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss;sa=news
Is showing me 4 items and even with those they never seem to include any from the v12 forum.
I'd ideally like it to show me up to say 15 items for the feed.
Thanks
-

You can do this yourself with the limit "tag" (what are those things called -- tag, option, modifier?). For example:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?action=.xml;type=rss;sa=news;limit=30
Will limit the RSS feed to the most recent 30 postings. This works on any of the feeds.
EDIT: Woah. CODE text is very small!
-
Sorry I can't duplicate this. What theme and language settings are you using in the forum??
Everything is working fine now. Don't know if it's something you did, overnight, or the reboot I did this morning. I didn't even know there were theme settings. :)
-
Clicking on the icon "new" goes to the top of the thread instead of scrolling to the first unread post.
Still having this issue after deleting the cookie. Any advice?
-
i notice that preview does not hit their servers anymore, its all done in javascript, in your browser, so its faster.
Apart from getting logged out, have not noticed anything untoward.

Me too actually!! I never actually realized until now that you could click on the New icon to get to the first new post. Too bad, would be a cool feature!

It's been a cool feature that I'm gonna miss very much if pulled back.

Changing the forum theme to "SMF Default Theme" solves this issue. It's still not working with the default theme.
-
Thanks. I switched the default to that. Let's see if anyone notices. ;D
-
I just about fell over from shock. Shouldn't this kind of change be posted in a separate thread and discussed to death?
-
I was taken aback when I opened the forum just now! I like it. A refreshing change. :)
-
The default scheme does not contain any links to JRiver's web site.
MC Home, Skins & Plugins, MC Dev Zone, etc are all missing.
EDIT
Also missing:
- the ad banner
- the "delete post" button

Hi Bob,
found the hint for the solution in the "Firefox problem with the forum" thread - I have the wmlbrowser plugin for Firefox installed (http://wmlbrowser.mozdev.org/) and set it to "tell web sites that the browser understands wml content". Switched it back to default (not telling....) and I have the forum back....
Ingo
p.s.: this is the only site that's having problems with this setting....
-
Wow.
Just...
Wow.
(I think I'm going to keep it for a minute and see if I like it.)

I seem to remember this from the last time you all upgraded - good to see we're consistent at least!
Mind if I ask why you upgraded?

I just cleared the session cookies. Try again. If you can't get it to work, try deleting your local cookie (yabb.jriver.com cookie YABBSE151)
I am having the same Session Verification Failed problem with FF V2. I can't post anything. I have deleted all cookies, including the yabb cookie to no avail. I did some Googling and found a fix you could make to your php code:
See this thread: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?PHPSESSID=1e8524c4a2c960b583443530a88c7a92&topic=17508.30

There were a couple of possibilities in that thread. I just switched to database session tracking. Please report success/failure from the change.

No luck. I cleared cache/cookies/passwords and logged back in. I even get the same error when simply trying to log out. I can read & search with no problem. Just can't post or logout.
-
Are you using the wmlbrowser plugin mentioned above??
-
avpman
Maybe if you change the theme\skin
-

No, not using that plugin. Also tried various themes, including the default.

I'm still having this problem. I did notice that when I log in I get a cookie yabb.jriver.com YabbSE151. When I ry to logout and/or post, I get the Session Verifiation error and a second cookie yabb.jriver.com PHPSESSID. Perhaps a variable PHPSESSID is not being set?

So Have You Tried IE 6 Or IE 7?
maybe it is just something with FF

Just logged in with a new install of firefox 2.0.0.2
No errors or Problems

Did you try logging out? Specifically by hitting the logout button?
-
FF 2.0.0.1
No problems here.
Logout or posting.
-
No problems here either. Including logout and posting. I'm using FF2.0.0.2.
-
Did you try logging out? Specifically by hitting the logout button?
yes, no errors.
might be a problem with your config\install.
you may want to un-install and re-install FF and see what happens.
-
Completely removed FF 2.0.2 and associated deleted directories. Whatever was causing it is now fixed.
-
The 2 cookies you saw are normal. If the session ID cookie wasn't writable for some reason I suppose it could give the behavior you described. You removed FF 2.0.0.2 and reinstalled and now it works??
-

Yes it worked after I deleted and reinstalled FF 2.0.2 However, it only worked for a day and now it's back to giving me the same session verification error. No problems in IE6. Just FF 2.0.2 Add before anyone asks, yes, I have admin rights.
-
I logged in and out with FF since then, no problems
interesting you seem to be the only one having a problem.
maybe some software you are running?

I may be the only one having the problem "here". But, there are several posts all over the net about problems with FF 2.0 and Session Verification errors with various BB software. I am going to load FF 2.0.2 on another PC and try it when I get a chance. Will keep Bob updated.

I like the fact that interact links would always open in a new firefox tab.
Lately, this is only happening if the link is to another interact page. If the link points to somewhere external, it takes me away from interact.
Is something I can control at my end? I don't mean "remember to hold the shift key down when clicking links"
Examples:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?
http://www.download.com
-marko.
-marko.
-
I got a new tab in Firefox for both links you gave. I'm using FF 2.0 and on the Tools\Options\Tabs, I have all the checkboxes checked.
-
thanks for that.
I'll get suited up and go digging around in optionland and see what I can find....
Edit:
Found it in the options for 'tab mix plus'
"open links with a target attrib. in same tab" was checked.
apologies for the blonde interlude :)
-
while there, I had to have a quick look-see, and found that MC/interact remains as emotive a cocktail today as it did 5 years ago!!!

What version of FF are you using? I don't see this option anywhere. I just started using FF so it may be an older version so I'm not familiar with it.
-
I'm using Firefox v2.0.0.2
I also use two indispensible (for me) tab related plugins.
They are tab mix plus: (this was the one that was misconfigured)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1122/
http://tmp.garyr.net/
and ietab (uses iexplorer engine in a firefox tab for things like windows update, my router config pages and others that don't play nice in Firefox)
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1419/
-
Ahhh, that explains it as it was a plugin. I use IE Tab and Duplicate Tab. I see Tab Mix Plus also does duplicate tabs so I'll take a look at that as a possible replacement for Duplicate Tab.
