FAQ: Forum Update: Question & Suggestion Thread

Could you elaborate? It's become even easier than it used to be o_O?

you have 3 options:
~this would make text strike-through~
[S]this would also make text strike-through[/S]
or you select text and click the strike-through button next to underline & color
There is no strike through button on my phone.
 
I just put [S]text|/S] in. At first I thought it was [strike] but that didn't work.
I see your problem now. It does show up on the desktop version but not mobile. We'll be looking into the cause of this, but you do still have the option available by using the s tags

Aaaaand Dylan's a ninja with the admin control panel :p
 
It looks like for me anything greater than a year old shows up, but nothing within the last year is there

EDIT: Actually looking at more of these with other people, I don't think the issue has anything to do with a year, its just coincidence. It looks to me like its cutting off what would amount to the first group of them we would have seen before (if I recall correctly its like 10 pages you saw before, then you had to click "see older posts" or something like that). I have just randomly looked at like 10 people or so, and it looks like this is a universal problem. I wonder if it has to do with the search function not working, since looking at someone's posts is essentially a "search" function.

Anything after the update is showing up, then everyone has a gap, the period of time varies due to activity, but I would assume its the exact same amount of posts (my guess is 200) that are missing, then all the old ones show up - then again maybe not, I've seen some now that don't fit this theory, but either way there are gaps in every one I have looked at. I do hope this is something that can be solved, because it is quite nice to be able to look at old posts in one place.

EDIT AGAIN: Actually I think it just seems to date back to March of 2018, with just a few people that are outliers for some reason. So basically there is a gap from early March 2018 until the update. For some reason a few people have some posts showing up in December, but otherwise nothing. I've looked at like 20 now, not saying that is enough to be sure everyone has this problem, but hopefully the research can at least help out to determine what the problem is.


So was anyone going to look into this? Seems like every other complaint is getting a response...

Just look at your own list of messages, or a couple of others, literally everyone has a gap of March of last year until the update, with the exception of a few posts showing up from certain sections.

Ah, yeah, I see it too. We'll look into it!
Could you add the bar that lets us move pages to the top of the page?
Do you mean something like a bar that takes you back up to the top of a page? I'm not sure I understand the question.
 
I meant adding this: 115325
to the top of the page. It’s kinda annoying that it’s only on the bottom.
 
How about adding LOL as a reaction?
When choosing the reactions we're trying to keep things as positive as possible. And while laughing normally is positive, there's potential for bullying or miscommunication if people respond "lol" to more serious posts. I'd rather avoid these issues before they can arise.
 
At least on mobile, the "members online" list isn't organized in any recognizable pattern, while in the previous version it was organized alphabetically, making it easier to see if a particular user was online. If this could be fixed, I would be appreciative.

EDIT: Much more urgently, the entire box above where you type text (with the bold, italic, etc. options) doesn't work at all on mobile for some reason. Please fix this ASAP.

If you're talking about the rich text editor, try hitting the cog wheel. You're probably in BB code editor mode.

Usually post boxes have the ability to resize the post box, but it seems to be missing on XF2. Is it possible to have that back?
Are you talking about posted messages or the message editor?

The post edit boxes.

Most multiline text fields have a small thing on the bottom right of the box, anywhere on the internet, where you can resize the text field... and this was true of the previous version of the software running these forums... but for some reason, it's gone now...

For most posts, it's fine... but I've always extended the post box out quite a bit when posting a huge post (such as in TWR)

Will be fixed when search comes back online, which is soon :)
