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

If you have a moment, you can quickly click the [ Preview ] button. I used to spend a lot of extra time copying my replies & pasting them into Notepad “just in case”. The Preview function gets it into the browser quicker and easier.

Yeah I was pretty excited when IE11 came out as well. Now I can download Chrome and Firefox 20% faster on a new install!

Truthfully, I have not tried IE in a LONG time. MS let it stagnate for quite a while and Firefox and Chrome were far superior. A buddy of mine works for MS and keeps telling me that it is competitive now, but I just can’t bring myself to try it. Shared bookmarks between my Chromebook, phone and desktop are pushing me more and more towards Chrome. I have not had any problems with lost posts in Firefox, and I too have a tendency to research and switch tabs a lot while writing things up.

Getting some strange blue screens

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘@’ in /srv/www/drupal7/sites/all/modules/rules/modules/php.eval.inc(146) : eval()’d code on line 1

Sorry about that, my fault.

Cool, thanks for your efforts on the upgrade.

left a pm about some apparently transient errors noticed just now

How did you get 260k free hours? :smiley:

testing if my name shows up as ‘edited by’ under the original post (until someone else adds a new last edit)

what is it your testing?

The email notification system. Don’t get your hopes up yet, though, it’ll be a while.

I have a request, if it’s possible. After passing the first page of search results, if you read a thread and hit the back button, it takes you back to the 1st page of search results, no matter what page of results your on. I think you just made an adjustment to a similar situation in recent posts.

Thanks

I had this problem as well but haven’t since sb fixed the issue. Maybe clearing the browser cache will help?

There’s always the option of opening in a new tab, if you don’t want the state of the first tab disturbed.

I probably never would have noticed the issue you described, since I’ve long been in the habit of using new tabs instead of expecting ‘back’ to produce the same state as a page was in before. The web hasn’t had reliable ‘back’ behavior since functional javascript got popular and produced “Web 2.0”.

Hi Administrator.

Welcome to BLF.

Nice name, by the way. But your messages are a little terse :smiley:

:slight_smile:

I would like to complain about a user named sb56637, he acts like he owns the place :smiley:

Here is sb performing a test
What he does would make most of us stressed
But he works with a smile
In good cheer all the while
Making BudgetLightForum the best

We all wonder , just when does he rest ?
Every problem is quickly addressed
Making changes each day
Nothing gets in his way
He is simply a man on a quest

We are having fun at his behest
All who visit here are soon impressed
It becomes very clear
That as soon as you’re here
You’ll be treated like a special guest

Haaaa!

I see the whole bunches of “tests” were getting the notifications working! i just got a brand new shiny notification. :smiley:
