Very nice.


Couple of small issues,


a) Can't press return or tab in small edit window. Not a major issue as I can use the large edit window but frustrating till you get used to it.


b) clicking more below a forum fails to show any extra threads. May just be because there are none!

Hey Paul,


Yes hitting the tab button within the "Quick Message" will automatically tab you to the submit button and will not do a physical tab in the editor unless you bring up the extended version.  This is due to the Freeware editor we are using.  We are using the latest version and for now you will have to bring up the expanded version.  But we will keep looking for updates on this.  And yes if there are no more than I would say 8 threads within a message board the more button will not show "More" becauase there is not any More to show.  But give it time, it'll get super busy! lets hope

two more small irritions

a) back button: When in a forum thread and I click the back button it does not always take me back to the forum. I often have to click it a few times just to escape the thread.

b) after you submit a reply on topic with >25 posts you are taken to the 1st page of replies, not to where your reply is posted.

Paul.

You may want to inform people the subttitle does not post to forum board. I put up one on fascism and subbed it 'a refutation...' but because it didn't show up, some formed a wrong opinion of what I was actually intending to say when it was viewed on the forum page, as opposed to the actual article appearance. It's no biggie but you may note it somewhere for people in the future updates.

I can't seem to post new articles. Is there a forced delay between posts? I posted a test hello world to welcome, then came back and tried to create a new post that actually says something, but it won't take the new post. (Lets me select forum and category, enter title and text, select just me or everyone, etc, but when I click submit nothing is saved). Am I missing something obvious here?

Ah Catastrophe!!!

Whew... I thought maybe I had gotten stupid in my old age or something. Thanks Muggaz.

Um...I AM really stupid (and I'm old) and I can't add to my blog, either. I'm a real newbie at this and like you automatically presume it's me! Is there a notification system for Stardock to tell us if the site is 'down' in some way ie not accepting new blogs? Thanks in advance for any insight!

hey, i just noticed that if i edit an article i wrote in the past, it bumps it up in the forums even if no new comments have been made. for example: my article under "ART" was bumped even though it has zero comments. it was created feb 16th but the one under it is from the 25th, both have zero comments.

I am really having a hard time with the wysiwyg editor.  For some reason suddenly the lines are breaking extra short, and the paragraphs are just line breaks.  When I go and put the html directly into the editor, it seems to change things, adding the ascii for the < and > and other odds and ends.


It didn't behave like this until the last few days.  In the past I could at least do all the html at paste it in.  Any way we can opt-out of the wysiwyg editor?  Also, IESpell only seems to work in the 'html source' mode.

it is not related directly to forum, but every time I click to change to any link of the site, the browser is reloading automaticacly the index page. I can just click on stop to prevent this to happen continuously.

If I use the fourm to view articles and then post a comment, the back button will not take me back to the forum after my article is posted.

I have posted remarks and nothing happens.

I don't think that they are people who would blacklist me. Could you check it out.

it's not just sherye. it happens to me too...I can't post a comment on a blog from the 'recent articles' list, but I can from the 'forum' list. In other words, if I'm the first to comment, my post won't be accepted and I get a 'Htp 404' screen instead. It's very frustrating!!! Actually, i have to say that overall the past 2 or so days have been very frustrating...either the site is down, or I can't access my blog...or I can't post articles, then i couldn't post responses..I know that improvments are being made and we're going to have some teething problems, but this is driving me nuts now!!!!!

The "My Account" link in the upper right-hand corner is not working. This error message comes up: "The page requested is currently not available. Please try again at a later time." This has been happening for the past few days.

Me too, but it is fluctuating

Well this isn't really a bug. Just created a blog and I'm wondering: How can I change the colour of the "JU" strip on top of the site? Can someone point me in the right direction?
