By #[Izmar] - ADMIN - January 14, 2011, 20:11:52
Please post any problems or typos you find in the forums here, and we'll try to fix them as soon as possible.

You can also post your suggestions for the forum Dictionary.

Thank you in advance!

Edit: I've got the option to change the size but when I post, it seems to put it back to it's original size
     Yea, it works in the post, in the section where you type... but if you preview, or post it, it just ignores all your settings.

Even directly quoting a post where it is clearly working, ends up ignoring the settings.
  
 
The news articles are a special case, they are written in HTML by the website news tools that the forum can interpret correctly now.... mostly. wink

The Web Devs have been at work, you might notice some changes to the forums today.

  • You can now suggest words for the spelling dictionary by clicking on any word marked misspelled. If these words are accepted, they will no longer be marked as misspelled in post previews.
  • The background color for the Full Edit and Quick Edit editors have been changed to white for clarity.
  • All posts displayed in the Devtracker now have a link to the original thread.
  • If you forget to add a topic subject when posting a new thread, you will now receive an error message rather than losing the contents of your post.
  • Dates of messages are now displayed as "Today" and "Yesterday" where appropriate.
  • When viewing a forum's topic list, topics that you have participated in have a different icon.
  • Problems with displaying the largest forums for some users (requiring them to disconnect/reconnect) have been corrected.

Other issues which have been reported are being worked on, including the redirection errors for people using iPhones and other alternate browsers.

At the top right, it says "forum heroique" instead of "heroic forums"

not sure if its intentional, but the forum's page spacing is off from what it was previously. the page width no longer fits 1024x resolutions.

If you click one someone's character name, you can't get to the actual character page, and just get an error.

Strange, the guilds work fine. Must be an error with the link.

Click "See new posts"

Looks chronological, until you look a bit closer....*

Right now, the first three threads are posted at the times 20:07, 19:56, 20:03 (all on the 14th) in that order. A bit further down, there're "Jan 11th" posts mixed in between "Jan 12th" posts.
The same thing occurs with general searches... there is a weird semi-correct chronology going on, but it's not right.

The drop-down for the Edit button: the second row is misaligned with the first ( >Quick Edit is further to the left than >Full Edit )*

This forum (in forum view), is showing me as the last person who posted in this thread, but lists Formulamonster's time (the post directly below mine, which at the time, is the real last post). ... Now the time has updated to Holoflash's post below, but still says I'm the last poster.

Aermnye is mispelt as Aermine under the portraits.

If you have a quote block, and switch between code-view and formatted-view, or repeatedly preview the post, additional spaces are added to the line after the Quote each time you switch back. In the same way, using Lists, and switching between view-types will cause a whole addtional line to appear just after the list, for each time you switch.*

I can only click on the top few pixels of the "Problems and Solutions" forum to actually enter that forum in the main forum-overview. All other links seem fine.

Not exactly a bug, but a design "issue". The old login section (name/password fields/forgot password/etc) still exists, while the new top-bar adds a new login section... i.e. you have two things on screen which cover the exact same functionality, literally within a few pixels of each other. Only the search field and "new posts" link are actually unique to the old system.*

Subforums are labelled as  "Sous-forums" when in the subforum view.*

A number of posts have "edited by - " but no name of who it was editted by*

"Too Many Redirects" in various language from Chrome, Firefox and IE.*

(* = This bug has been afflicting the Wakfu forum too)

Not sure about other links or if this was a problem before the switch-over but in the thread, "Frequently Asked Questions" (Found in "Welcome to the Incarnam Inn") 90% of the links don't work.

And how long does it take the server to recognize that my Iop has another helmet on? I'd like to let everybody see my exclusive hat...

If you take too long writing your reply it's erased without warning.

I can't send private messages to other players.

I selected my Time Zone on the Account Management section, but it still keeps showing everybody's posts way ahead of my actual time. It's trying to say that most of the new posts are on the 15th of January, whereas it isn't even 4:00 PM yet on January 14th where I'm at.

Got it working. I just had to log out and back in after selecting the Time Zone.

If I understand it, you have to re-select your avatar to update the image.

While browsing the forums via iPod touch, there are too many "redirections" when clicking on a topic. It is now pretty much inaccessible via mobile web. Is anyone else getting this problem, or is it just me?

I have the same issue, but with Google Chrome. Firefox seems to be running it just fine, haven't tried my iPod yet.

Also, the quote issue is only with the WYSIWYG editor, you just need to click "Plain Code View" to make everything nice again.

Speaking of, any chance for WYSIWYG to be turned off by default?

((I also lost my sig!))

I think you have to clear your history in order to deal with this issue.  It worked fine on Internet Explorer (I'm using Chrome) and then when I used a Circumventor on Chrome.  That led me to believe it was a Cookie/History issue.  So I used the tools in Chrome to completely clear the history/cookies/browsing cache and I don't have the issue anymore.  Try clearing out your cookies/browsing history and see if that helps!
