Post bugs.

Here's some bugs that I've encountered so far:

Videos/News page select always taking you to last page -
When going from the forum to a news or videos page, I always get redirected to the last page, and not whatever page number that I clicked. Using firefox, if that's relevant.

Nested Quoting:
Nested quotes do not work:
Apparently, work.

Voting any number of videos:
By copying the source of a video page and changing the values for the combo box, you can vote any number you like on videos.

Video/News comments and the "New Post" image.

After you post on a video or on a news article, it no longer says "New Post". Actually, it never did, because the image was broken. It's probably because you're using the same relative link for both but, because they're in different folders, well... it doesn't show up. Why don't reinstate the "New Post" image, and just paste duplicates of the image into the required folders? I'm not sure if there's a better way, but I'm pretty sure there's a least a way.

I don't know what this does, so I'm not gonna add it to the list, but when I edit a post, and then I change the author in the address bar, I get some weird things with it telling me stuff happened, but so far as I can tell, nothing did. One thing I did was I changed the author and added "action=delete" to the top, and then it told me that "the user" had my exact amount of points removed... weird.

Edit comments username

When attempting to edit the username field in the edit comments for the chatbox (should that even be possible?), I get an error:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' `postcount` = postcount-1 WHERE `username` = ''' at line 1

Next page on videos

The forum shows the option to view the next page of a video one post too early. That is, when there's exactly 10 replies, there's still only one page (since the first post WAS a reply in video forums), yet, the forum gives you the option of view the next page. This may happen on news posts as well.

I noticed a lot of these bugs. Also, there've been glitches where it shows the page numbers, but it won't show "next>>".

the video archive and news pages showing the last page was Haily's idea. I tried to get him to show page one automatically, but he said it was dumb

Haily said he would try to fix the quotes by making a script that would separate all nested quotes into individual quotes.

in fact, Haily has a lot of stuff to fix that he claimed he would fix. He needs to be here more often. and we still have to put blocks to keep you from hacking pages.

What's that about showing the last page? How is it that, when I click to go to page 3 of a board, I get redirected to page 8? How is that an "idea" and not a bug?

what? I never saw that.
I'm saying that if you're on the home page and click on "comments", it'll take you to the last page of comments, instead of the first one. and the video archive might be doing the same thing too.

where can I see that bug that you're talking about, csd?

Go the the video forum, and click to go to any page of a board that has multiple pages of comments, you'll end up at the last page. I think you need to make the "page_number=n" carry over through the redirect. Here's an example:

http://www.interguild.org/members/forums/topic.php?id=81&page_number=1

that's weird. the video archive links you to:
http://www.interguild.org/videos/viewvid.php?vid=115&page_number=2
which works fine, but you're trying to go to:
http://www.interguild.org/members/forums/topic.php?id=81&page_number=1

is that where the forums link you? well, maybe we should make them link you to the working link.

Yeah, if you go to http://www.interguild.org/members/forums/topic.php?id=81&page_number=1 you get redirected to http://www.interguild.org/videos/viewvid.php?vid=115 (no page number -- defaults to last page). I'm not sure how to do it or anything, but if you change the redirect to include the page number as well (and redirect to http://www.interguild.org/videos/viewvid.php?vid=115&page_number=1, in this example), it would work.

   is that why you have -9k points?

the vids always say they are made on 31 dec 1969.

The duration is also 00.00.00.

The bar of krotomo's video is purple.

  that means someone messed up putting your video in the archive. either they left it blank or they did something worse

ok, there's another video without the date and length. who keeps forgetting to add it?

  

Whoever approved it, maybe?
Like Isa approved my vid.

And the purple bar thing...

Ok, when you quote you get points as well.

Because 'bla' is not supposed to give you lots of points.

but user abc does this:



bla

Now he gets lots of points. Because the quote gives you more points.

not exactly a bug, but a potential problem. but we're thinking of changing the points system soon anyway.

Haily needs to log in and come here.

Theres a bug in the competition 24 topic. The main page shows theres pages 3 in total but in the hatpc and competitions page, it shows pagees 4 in total. When i click the fourth page, nothing showed up, just blank.

Accel knows of that, he pointed it out in the mods forum.

However, the Code function is glitched. I cannot start a new line of code with an empty space.

So this:


and this:

doesn't look the same, even if you were to remove the '.

Accel, has a lot to do.

Come on, Accel! You still have to make polls, give us the option to move topics, start working on the new system, and all of that other crap!  

I also have a lot of homework.
but tomorrow's a half day, so that's good. I actually rushed my homework so that I could do some stuff, but now my school wants me to register for my classes for next year even though it's really early. It doesn't look like I'll have too much time next year either, as I'll be taking 4 AP classes.

and quirvy, half the site was coded by Haily, and there are some glitches that I'm trying to get him to fix since he's familiar with his own coding. Haily's actually claimed a number of things to do around the site, but it really doesn't look like he's planning on getting them done. at least not within the next six months or something.

I might not be here much this week because of some assignments that I have to do, but I do have a 3-day weekend b/c of Martin Luther King Day. As for my many things to do, I need to still fully finish the level galleries and comps system by putting in the search systems and start filling the comps system with all the old comps. I also need to put more effort into the layout, remake the user profiles to not look terrible, and then I'll have to deal with more changes when we start adding games. I've been really excited lately about adding new games to the site, but that's just not a possibility for me right now with all this work...

The limit should be 400. Fix this.

Or 500 like back in the days.
