Report a site bug

Regarding a missing IM bar and other bugs, this is due to the javascript file not downloading for some reason. The problem isn't being caused at YWS' end since it's affecting only a small number of users and since there's been no changes to the core programming since February. It also isn't necessarily being caused at the user's end, so it really is something that's out of my hands.

You can try forcing your computer to download the javascript file by going to:
min/g=js

Once there, hold down shift and hit the refresh button at the same time.

If it matters, I'm in Chrome and on iPad ^^

This, I'm afraid, still stands.

Especially seeing that I hang around the SB section a lot and sometimes need to find posts of a specific member in order to interact with him/her, it's really quite a problem I'd love to see fixed :c

iPad and Chrome, if it makes a difference.

That thing c:

From what I got from asking in chat, I'm not the only one :/

If you can't see anyone's posts, then how are you reading this? You have to be a lot more specific if you want me to help. Provide pictures, your browser info, etc.


Edit

Ah, I see what you mean now. You meant that when you click on "See this person's posts" on their profile, you don't see anything there. I'll go ahead and work on that, and thanks for reporting it.

In the future, please read the very first post in this thread about the format for reporting bugs. In particular:

- A detailed description of what happened. What section were you on? What were you doing? What were you trying to do?

It saves me a lot of time if you do this, allowing me to help you faster.

Mhm. My apologies - It indeed isn't much like me to not pay enough attention to that.

I do hope it will be alright again, and thanks c:

Time: ever since I joined the website and tried to make a second portfolio folder
description: I made a second folder in my portfolio and placed a story within it, I already had one made by me, this was the second. Then whenever I tried to get to it the only thing that would pop up was the folder i was already in. I was able to view other peoples' numerous folders but mine would not work. So then i moved the story and deleted the folder and the story went in to unsorted. I was able to view that folder and my made by me one but when I tried making a different folder again it still didn't work.

Hey! I was trying to edit an review for someone and it was pretty long, and it wouldn't let me edit it, so I had to post it again (as a comment) in two parts. Then I realised that I had made a mistake in the correction and I couldn't do it again. I think it might be just that the edited post was too long, but I would like a confirmation.

Bug n°2 today:
In the Full Reply on the forums, the editing buttons for spoiler, bold, italics, coding and all of that don't work. I tried every button, just to make sure, then did the bbcoding myself, as I am not completely ignorant.

Aux, what browser do you use, what was the work you reviewed (link the problem) and for the second it sounds like an issue with your browser rather than the YWS (but I'm not sure).

Happens. I would suggest to hit the refresh

Pingu: Google Chrome, I wasn't the only one who had the problem though. There was a member I hadn't met before who I was chatting to who had the same problem. I think that they were on Firefox. (at the same time, for about ten mins with repeated refreshes, so it may just have just been a momentary bug.) It now works. At school, with Firefox. I'll try again when I get home.

And we all are happy for you.

Just Kidding

Shush Animal, I'm having a few problems with the site at the moment. Such as right now.

10:35 GMT+1: the WriterFeed Pad is down on Firefox, Google and (just for kicks) Internet Explorer. I asked people who I was chatting with (BarrettBenedict and Chuck10931) and they can't open it either. Maybe it's a bug with EtherPad, just reporting.

The servers are probably just down!

Sorry about WFP; that was my fault. I upgraded the server yesterday, and forgot that I needed to start the application that runs WFP (etherpad). Everything should be working fine now.

I'll take a look at the review bug as well that Auxirra mentioned. In regards to bbcode buttons not working, it's probably a browser issue. Just hold down shift and F5 to refresh the cache, and it should work then.
