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.

Still working on this. Just waiting for the guy who coded up the problematic modification to come back from a holiday. Will update again when I know more.
 
Just letting everyone know that I am aware there is an issue with ASF's site search function today. This is currently being worked on and should be fixed very soon.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Hi Joe,

Wanted to know if anyone else is having problems today. ASF is running real slow (pages taking ages to load or timing out with the "cannot display webpage" message).

All other sites are working fine, only ASF I'm having problems with.

Cheers
Warren

I concur with you. Today is 11th Dec and I had the same issue.
I kept on trying few times. Search button did not work.
I am sure Joe is working on that.
To facilitate investigation I got this comment when undertaking the search criterion :

connection to localhost:9312 failed (errno=60, msg=Operation timed out)

Cheers

Folks, I have reverted back to the old search because the issues with the new search have been ongoing and very difficult to diagnose.

At least now search is working and people should be able to find the threads they are looking for.

My apologies again for any inconvenience caused. I will continue to work with the host on the new search in the wee hours when there are fewer ASF members online.

When I click on General Chat there is no longer a button for "start new thread" on firefox or chrome.

That's odd because the button is there for me in both Chrome and Firefox. Strange indeed.

Is this happening to others as well or just GG? Please let me know if you can see the "Post New Thread" button in the General Chat forum.
 
OK, it should be there now.

I just checked the forum permissions and for some reason Registered Users were not allowed to post new threads in the General Chat forum. I didn't change it, so I guess ASF has a ghost.

If anyone notices any more forum weirdness, please let me know in this thread.

It is back again now in both chrome and firefox. Probably Mr.Kafka playing games again.

This is not something that's an issue for me but I thought I should bring to you attention in case you weren't aware as it might effect how others view the forum.

You recently re-arranged the sub forums in the "forum jump" section to different areas. This week I upgraded my PC from Windows XP to Windows 8.1 & I noticed that Australian stock discussion, market related forums, trading & investing & community are in bold which make the different sections stand out. In my old computer those sections weren't in bold despite using the same browser, Firefox.

Hi Chris, thanks for the feedback!

Yes, the bolding of forum headings in the Forum Jump menu was intentional. As you pointed out, it makes the different sections stand out more and gives everything a sense of separation. However, it seems that it works in some browsers but not others. For example, it works in Firefox but not in Chrome, so I will investigate further and see if there is a way to make it work properly in all browsers and operating systems.
 
Hi Joe,
In the list of New Posts, the "Full ASX Excel Spreadsheet" thread shows there has been a latest reply by the Opener this morning. But when I open the thread, nothing is showing beyond the one I left last night.
It could be that WW has deleted his reply - but that's only a guess.
It's also odd that the list shows 10 replies, whereas mine from last night carries #11.

Please ignore previous message; after the next reply had been added, I got the full thread.
Must have just been a glitch in the system.

When an ASF member is very new, or has very few posts, any of their posts that contains links are automatically placed into a moderation queue to be approved before they are able to be viewed by other ASF members.

The reason this was introduced is because new ASF members are responsible for the vast majority of spam, and this is the best way of filtering it out.

Thanks Joe,
great concept! and good to know :)
 
Joe I'm having trouble uploading pics. When I press on the "Select File" on the pop up box nothing happens. :confused:

Maybe I've lost privileges because I put up too much rubbish...... :D

TH, give it a try now and let me know how you go.
 
Hi,

I have a wee presentation problem -

I open the home page, see the list of most recent posts, hit go to last post on one of them, I am then placed in the last post, momentarily, before it flicks back to the top of the last full page containing this post and I have to scroll down to find it.

This now consistent behavior only started on my w7 machine a few weeks back - before then it was fine.

On my samsung it's fine.

Any ideas on what I may have done ?

I'm using chrome btw -
