Post technical questions and issues here. Yes, the layout is slightly different!

Sorry if this is redundant...do I need to change my username color? If so, how, and is there some guideline in place to what it should/shouldn't look like. Gracias.

 

I want to sign in with my Facebook, is there away to can do that and use my old account? right now i am just logged in under facebook but it doesnt show i have been a member for 11 years

 

Sweet! It'll feel like home, sweet home then.

 

I read earlier that someone had many old posts missing. Same here. I had over 5000 posts before, but now can only find 200 of them. Where are the rest of them?

 

When i click on http://boards.theforce.net/ my browser freezes up for anything from 10 to 45 seconds. this doe snot happen with any other web page I click on.

 

My notifications are doubling.

For example.. when someone likes a post I made, I get two notifications that the same person likes my post.

 

Where's the search function?

 

We disabled the search function for the time being. It's not working like it is suppose too. Once we get it fixed, it will be back up and going. For more information see this thread.

 

Something is very wrong when I try to post or edit something, particularly after I've pasted something there from the temporary boards. The entire thing freezes, or it only allows me to type so many characters (or even just move my cursor so many characters) before freezing. I've been unable to insert one missing word through an edit into one of my posts for 15 minutes, have reloaded the page like 30 times. And this isn't the first time, just the most annoying so far.

 

I think I figured out why my notifications are doubling.. it only seems to happen when someone quotes or tags me.. and if they edit the post I'm quoted or tagged in, it'll give me another notification.

 

Both.

 

One issue I noticed, which is probably more prominent on Fan Fiction boards: in several of my posts in which quotations marks were placed to denote speech, the quotation remarks are replaced with question marks. Can this be fixed?

 

It's too late to edit now, and it was just a minor edit (really a series of minor edits, until it started freezing for EVERYTHING) but it was my original post of the "What do you believe, and why?" thread in the JCC. I think it might be because I pasted some text from a post in the temporary boards, that's the only thing I can think of anyways.

 

I don't know, I've sent a much longer PM just a day or so ago with no problems. I'll let you know if it happens again. Maybe it's just my computer.

 

I'm having some slowness with pages loading and error messages saying the server timed out when I try to post.

EDIT: Never mind, it seems to have to settled down.

 

Could you disable the edit time limit?

 

glad to be back with the old surroundings and all. as much as we can have anyway.

thanks to all of you who put in work on this. much appreciated.

 

Just out of curiosity, why posting on the temp boards disabled already? I thought that wasn't supposed to happen for 30 days.

 

So happy to have the old forums back. I was sorely missing them.
Many thanks to all involved in the move and in correcting any errors. Your hard work is much appreciated! Thank you

I'm waiting patiently for the correction of the truncated posts' issue so I can read my fav fanfics

 

For a couple of days now I ntermittently get: TheForce.net is not responding due to a long running script.

If I click okay and waiiittt, the page comes back, only this time I typed in one character than it froze, then the entire site stopped responding and I had to "recover the webpage" and lost what little I had pasted.

Tech details, Win7, IE9, had pasted little more than is in this post as a reply.

 

Those of you using IE9 try using it in compatibility mode. The Javascript engine in IE9 is better than previous IEs but is still pretty flaky compared to Firefox or Chrome.
