[07-MAR-2016] Current status of BLF upgrade process

SB,

I just noticed that the viewing format (number of posts per page) is no longer user selectable. I used to select 300 posts per page to speed up text searches, when wading through long discussion threads.

Can you put the viewing format back in? O:-)

Ok here's a test of the keengeorge bug report using the Advanced Post editor.

Not too ugly.

keengeorge: Is your browser having trouble with line wrapping in the Advanced Editor? Because it looks like your previous posts with it have an awful lot of @<p>@ paragraph tags as though you were manually doing a typewriter carriage return when reaching the right border of the input area.

G'Day SB,  :)


I have not been aware of any line wrapping issues in the Advanced Editor, but I have just tested line wrapping in the Advanced Editor & it doesn't seem to be working.  ;)
Btw, I insert "CR+LF" as & when I consider them desirable for readability.

Best Regards,
George

@keengeorge Sorry, I just meant line wrapping between words, not long words without spaces.

sb56637 · February 16, 2016, 7:08pm

Unfortunately no, it looks like that feature was removed. Sorry about that!

keengeorge · February 16, 2016, 7:24pm

SB, as per above test, line wrapping between words seems to be working as it should (but I haven't checked the generated code).

Thank you Very Much,

George

Greetings & Salutations SB,

FYI, I just noticed that one af the ?problems seems to be that when press <quote>, then have to switch to the Advanced Editor & often what looked OK in the Simple Post Editor is now often mangled in the Advanced Editor.

Whereas in BLF's previous incarnation we could pre-select Advanced Post Editor for posting in threads (in Settings).

Best Regards,

George

Ahh, that makes sense keengeorge.

sb56637 · February 17, 2016, 2:44am

Yeah, I’m really sorry about that, it’s another one of the missing features in this new version. I would strongly suggest that everyone use the Simple Post Editor for almost everything except for complicated reviews or posts that need heavy formatting.

keengeorge · February 17, 2016, 2:52am

:-((

DBSAR · February 17, 2016, 3:08am

i don’t know how i missed this thread.

Mike_C · February 17, 2016, 9:54am

Being able to quote the OP is not on the list of this OP. No plans to fix it?

sb56637 · February 17, 2016, 12:47pm

Unfortunately I already tried and couldn’t make it work. Sorry!

1dash1 · February 18, 2016, 2:17am

Why is it …

Whenever I click on a new discussion thread, it opens up on the second post and I have to scroll back up to see the OP. :SICK: Am I doing something wrong (need to reconfigure my setup in some way)?

If not, is this problem fixable? :nerd_face:

Old mouseovers contain a strange link.

And freshly made mouseovers don't work (for me.)

sb56637 · February 18, 2016, 5:41am

Hmm, I haven’t seen this yet. What browser and OS are you on?

sb56637 · February 18, 2016, 5:43am

Could you give me a few links for this issue? Thanks!

raccoon · February 18, 2016, 6:43am

Earlier today my mouseover signature had a strange link, so I tried to fix it, and now the mouseover is gone.

I looked in this thread and found just one mouseover:

https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/38105/145

If I see any other mouseovers with strange links, I'll post a link in this thread. ;)

EDIT: I wouldn't be surprised if the strange links are only in mouseovers created in the last week.

1dash1 · February 18, 2016, 6:51am

The problem occurs for me in Chrome and Windows 7.

My other PC running Chrome and Windows 8.1 works fine.

sb56637 · February 18, 2016, 12:49pm

I guess you could try to log out of BLF, delete all cookies related to budgetlightforum.com, and log back in again. Can’t hurt anyway.
