ASF Site Performance

[Julia]

Hi Julia

I apologise. On reflection, I think I reacted far too harshly in the first place. Having read your post above I now understand where you were coming from and think I completely misunderstood the context of your post. I am sorry for responding in a needlessly harsh manner and hope you can forgive me. I will understand if you do not wish to respond but I would like to apologise nonetheless.

Thank you, coolcup. Much appreciated. We are all vulnerable at times to over-reacting or misinterpreting typed comment which lacks the nuances of tone and body language.

There was some irony for me, also, in your comment about attempts to make newcomers feel unwelcome as I clearly remember sending you a PM of welcome soon after you joined, following enjoying something you'd posted. I remember it specifically because you replied with thanks and an invitation to follow your blog.

Good to have it all sorted out.

Getting an 520 error message when I try to post on certain threads, points to a problem on your end.

I am hoping this was just a temporary glitch. If this continues to be an issue for you or any other ASF members, please let me know by posting in this thread.

Thanks!

I go to Stocks Q-Z and I cant see TLS in the 2 pages of results, I search TLS and it appears..............so it's there but doesn't appear in the thread Stocks Q-Z

I'm using IE 10

Play around with the "Thread Display Options" down the bottom of the page.

Mr Burns, have you tried typing in TLS in the advanced search box? Brings all the links up there.

Thanks I see that but when you click on a link that says Stocks Q-Z you expect the lot not have to refine further.

Yep but as I said above you shouldn't have to do that.

 

[Joe Blow]

Mr. Burns, you can modify this option in your account settings.

Simply scroll down to Thread Display Options and ensure that Default Thread Age Cut Off is set to "Show all threads".

................... expect the lot not have to refine further.

It is not refining it further, it is setting your preferences.

I don't want to waste my time going through heaps of pages finding the particular company so I have set my preference for only the the ones which have a post in the last month which is a couple of pages. If it isn't there, I do the search. I think it is quite logical that you set it to your own preference.

If you want them all, then there are 28 pages and you then have to guess around which page the particular code is because you would have no idea which page it is in. In your case TLS is on page 18 of 28 and you would spend a lot more time rummaging around all the pages trying to find it than doing the simple search.

Ok then there should be a notice indicating that all threads are not in the default setting otherwise when you click on that link you expect to see what it says.

Of course this is a set forum platform and cant be changed as far as I know and overall it's excellent, the best I've seen.

Joe,

When I search for "FAR" the ASF response is "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms."
-- this happens for all my search attempts!

I can see the forum in "Today's Posts"

Hi bigdog, let me look into this, and I'll get back to you about it as soon as I can.

bigdog, I have completely reworked the site search function. Hopefully, you should have no further difficulties tracking down the FAR (or any other thread) thread from this point forward.

Let me know if you encounter any issues in the future.

Joe, yes the search works; many thanks again

Hi Joe (just for your notes)
I had the 520/522 error for 12hrs Sat 23/11/13 (from ~11:30am - 23:45 pm).

Yes, sorry about the downtime earlier today. Unfortunately, there were some routing issues that affected access to ASF from late this morning and that persisted for a number of hours after that. Hopefully, everything should be back to normal now.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused!

Hi Joe

Not sure if it's just me, but when I'm clicking on a members name then 'view forum posts', their latest posts don't seem to be coming up. This is making stalking other members incredibly difficult as I have to search all the threads for their latest posts manually.

I just checked and you're right, the Latest Posts search for all users isn't displaying posts made after November 27th, which just happens to coincide with the introduction of a coding modification. I will look into this and get it fixed as soon as I can.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
