My buddie-list is gone

Is it to be found somewhere else or gone forever?

AGA · « **Reply #161 on:** 30 Apr 2012, 21:48 »

I turned it off because I didn't think anyone was using it. It's back on now though.

YAY - its back

Cool!- You are incredibly fast - Thanks!

It was a matter of ticking one box - took seconds!

UTF-8 should also work now, so all strange foreign symbols (like in my custom text) should work.

Yes, all the Signs have been corrected now back to normal, also in some usernames.

But all the avatars in the PM's are invisible now.
When hoovering with the cursor over the aerea, the link to the users profile is still there, only the pic isn't to be seen.

Works for me. Check again in case it was a temporary glitch? CTRL + SHIFT + R to completely refresh?

Sorry what's the purpose of the buddies list exactly? Does it have any advantages?

Nope, sorry:

... and only the pm's are affected (in- and out-box)

Edit:
btw. ~ Will we get those comfortable bbc buttons? I am still missing those, too.

Edit2:
The avatars are back in my pm's now!

What happened to the New graphics? It reverted back to the blue one.

I don't want to be alarmist, but could there be a fault with the ignore list system? Dualnames came up as 'ignored' in a thread just then and I'm certain I wouldn't have done that. In fact, took a quick look there and I have no idea how to even ignore anyone lol. Quite strange.

Is the search function broken right now? Looks that way.
Also, the link to this thread in the forum header ("so please report any problems here.") still leads to the first page, not the latest post. I know it's temporary and stuff, but I end up in the middle of the page and have to scroll to get to the link to the last page.

There's a real issue with using the drop down menus on a mobile phone. Since half of them have a direct link when you click on the drop down title. The only way around it is by holding down on it for a bit until it drops down. But in the process I get the "Open link in a new window" etc etc pop up on my mobile browser. So yes, I can technically get to anything within a drop down, but only if I knew that these were more than just menu links - and if I was a person smart enough to hold down on it, then press away to have the browser actions disappear.

If you're wondering what phone I'm using, I'm embarrassed to admit it's a Windows Phone 7. But not for long, I have plans to buy an Android phone within the next couple weeks.

To come back to this a while later, unfortunately the first link currently always has to be clickable, and I can't work out how to make that not be true.

Fixed.

Does anyone else have any bug reports / feature requests to make now? I've read back through this thread, and I think everything has been addressed now.

Hudders · « **Reply #173 on:** 01 May 2012, 09:35 »

It's still not possible for me to see my profile information. As before, I can only see "Modify Profile".

Tabata · « **Reply #174 on:** 01 May 2012, 10:19 »

~ sorry - I couldn't withstand to write this, too ~

Hudders · « **Reply #175 on:** 01 May 2012, 10:51 »

I know you're trying to help, Tabata and I appreciate it but I think you may have accidentally given AGA the impression that it was fixed when in fact it's never been broken for you.

AGA · « **Reply #176 on:** 01 May 2012, 11:07 »

Sorry, I meant to say in the last email that I was going to look into the whole profile issue. I meant does anyone have any problems apart from that?

Snarky · « **Reply #177 on:** 01 May 2012, 11:58 »

I'd very kindly like BB-Code buttons, too!

AGA · « **Reply #178 on:** 01 May 2012, 12:16 »

WYSIWYG is actually enabled by default, but it never seems to have worked for us. I'll keep tinkering, but I can't guarantee it'll ever work.

Snarky · « **Reply #179 on:** 01 May 2012, 12:25 »

I don't really care about a true wysiwyg editor, just buttons/drop-downs to insert the bb-code tags into the message. The ones I don't use a lot (font, size, color, alignment, for example) I always have to look up (the link to the reference page is also gone, BTW), and even lists would be a lot easier with buttons. Just have a look at the Adventure Gamers forums to see what I'm talking about.

Oh, that reminds me: they also support keyboard shortcuts, so that you can select a piece of your text and just press Ctrl-B or Ctrl-I to bold or italicize it. That would be also be very nice to have.
