io_guy Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 All my subscriptions were lost as well. I've re-subscribed to the AutomationShack forums but I don't seem to be getting alert emails. I've also lost moderator privileges to those forums. Quote
Mark H Posted July 9, 2014 Posted July 9, 2014 We're still investigating the missing subscriptions, but I do believe we'll be able to recover them. Until then, please don't add any more subscriptions, since the "fix" may delete the new ones if you create any. This will be addressed within a day, please stand by. Thank you. Quote
larryllix Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) I see "quote" and "multiquote" buttons but they do nothing in IE 11. It will also not take cut 'n paste so there is no way to include a quote. Note: I quoted the post above this. The "code" text box is a PITA as it floats around and you have to inject lines of text below it before sliding it into place or you cannot access below to type there. Hitting return to go to new line places the cursor into the code box and edits it. There is no cursor out the bottom again. I am sure we will get used to it but so far I am not impressed from a user endpoint. The look is nicer. Chrome is not an option for me after crashing my previous systems.

Then press CTRL-F5, reopen the editor, and see if it works better. It should, I applied a patch specifically for this issue, but let us know if it continues to be be a problem. io_guy - apologies for the issue with moderation, we'll fix that. And to all who said their subscriptions were gone - we have a fix that will be applied today or tonight some time. In my testing, everyone who said here that they were missing, had them back after the fix was applied at a "test conversion" site, so everyone will get those back, no worries. Quote

Teken Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Is the subscription fix been globally rolled out? I still have issues with it. Quote
LeeG Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 He said "we have a fix that will be applied today or tonight some time". It is at least NOT tonight yet. Quote
Mark H Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 The fix will be applied late this evening, yes, it isn't in place just yet. I'll post in this topic when it's been done. Thanks. Quote
Mark H Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 The fix for the topic subscriptions has been run. I see mine are back (they were missing before), so everyone else should have theirs back as well. Please give it a check. Thank you! Quote
MWareman Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I see mine back as well! Thanks for the work! Michael. Quote

"Adfender" is the culprit. It sees the quote box as an advert??? Weird one! Cut 'n paste trial 1: "larryllix - empty your browser cache" Works too, now! Thanks! Quote
larryllix Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Yup. Turn Adfender back on then quoting box and cut 'n paste won't function again! Yuk! "" <---paste not working. That one has to go then. What does a paste have to do with blocking an advert? Quote
Xathros Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 My subscriptions are back as well. Thank you! -Xathros Quote
PurdueGuy Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 My subscriptions are back. I didn't have any idea I had so many! Quote
WayneW Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 My subscriptions are back. Thanks! I think the old actually got merged with the new, as I think I see new stuff that I wasn't subscribed on the old board. I also noticed that one of my threads is locked. snooping around it seems that all many pinned threads are locked. Is that intentional? Or is that some the thread author did? Seems to impact multiple authors, so I assume not the authors choice. http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/7293-isylogger-latest-version-v062/ http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/7664-devlink-latest-version-v071/ http://forum.universal-devices.com/topic/7045-elk-wiki-connection-troubleshooting/ Quote
Mark H Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Yes, I was mistaken that it would delete new ones you had created before the fix was made. Instead, it "added" your old subscriptions to the list of new ones. Glad to hear everyone has them all back. Quote

One was made by Chris J, the other two by io_guy. io_guy is a Moderator for the Automation Shack section, and he locked those threads at some point in the past. Chris J locked his topic as well. These were locked on the old software too, though it wasn't really obvious. I just double-checked. That said, if you see a locked topic you believe should be open for reply, please let one of the Staff know. Thanks! Quote
PurdueGuy Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Problem has been addressed, let's let it propagate - it should work within 24 hours. Thanks everyone for the heads up! Unfortunately all my subscription notifications are still being treated as spam in Gmail. I'm going to attempt to set up filters to avoid that, but who knows what Google will do in the future. It could have something to do with my email being a forward from another domain. I will look into that as well. Quote
Xathros Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 @TheSidewinder, Is there no way for one to delete one's own posts? -Xathros Quote
Brian H Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Anyone having issues with Firefox 30.0's automatic spelling checker or have a work around? This could be a IP Board Forum software and Firefox issue as the Cocoontech forums. That also uses IP Board also disables the automatic spell checker? Edited July 17, 2014 by Brian H Quote
Xathros Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Mine is working but I'm also on a Mac. -Xathros Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Mark H Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Xathros - deleting one's own posts is possible with some Group permission changes, but..... were you able to delete your own posts on the old software? (In the conversion, permissions had to be redefined, so this may have been overlooked.) BrianH - Spell check is strictly a browser function, and in IP.Board it works fine, you just have to make sure the browser settings are selected correctly. I'm using FF latest as well. Open the editor, and inside the text window, type one word, any word, then hover your mouse over the word, and "right-click". The menu that pops up with your mouse should have an option "Check Spelling". Make sure that has a check mark next to it. Then immediately below that is a "Languages" option with a side-menu that opens when you hover over that choice. Make sure a language is selected there. (NOTE: This is the fix for any IP.Board install where this happens.) Quote
Brian H Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Thank you for the information on enabling Spell Checker in FF. In my case the language needed to be selected. Quote
Xathros Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 TheSidewinder- Yes, in phpbb, I was able to delete my own posts, at least up until there was a reply. After that, I believe the delete option was gone. IPBoard currently only allows me to remove the content of a post and leaves an empty post behind. Looks kinda strange. -Xathros Quote
