SMF is written to maximise compatibility; it has workaround for super obsolete stuff like IE 4 in it.  Chances are encodeURIComponent wasn't 100% supported at some point so they tried to write their own workaround.

Seems to work okay with that line changed to:

Code: javascript
x[x.length] = textFields[i] + \'=\' + encodeURIComponent(document.forms.postmodify[textFields[i]].value);


I edited the post Snarky linked, and previewed, and it looked okay in both preview and post...

I've fixed the bug that caused this issue, and separated the four game entries.  Question remains though, would you prefer game ID 2421, or 2422?

There may be some details mixed up for each game's entry btw, so please go to the edit pages and check everything is as should be.

This seems to happen when people add more than one game close together (which almost never happens, given only a handful of games are added in the average month).  Probably even worse if you add three!

I can fix it, but which ID would you prefer to keep tied with which name?

That's not a very nice flow though.  As it is, the user opens the game's page, clicks 'Download', clicks the relevant download.  Two clicks and you get what you want, without the page being too busy.  What happens for instance if a download link is broken, and the user needs to use the mirror?  It just feels like it's going to end up with users getting discouraged, and not bothering to even download a game...

Plenty of other big multi platform download sites have either a separate page or modal for downloads (e.g. https://gamejolt.com/games/captain-disaster-in-death-has-a-million-stomping-boots/151665, https://captaind.itch.io/captain-disaster-in-death-has-a-million-stomping-boots).  The main difference is the available platforms are represented by icons instead of words.

There can be up to 15 links for each game, which feels like it would be way too much information to show on a game's page.

Lord C, your post has been moved to the correct location.

Sorry about that, I was on holiday in the US and had no access to the server for a while.  The problem seemed to be caused by the server running out of disk space, which I've since fixed; things should have been stable for a few days now?

Agh... Game download links not showing...

Slasher

You'll need to readd them.
#371
Should work now.

Due to technical issues, some of your game's details have gone missing. Could you please go to https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/site/games/game/2414-a-curious-pastime/edit/ to edit it and correct any missing or incorrect details?

Fixed!

We at least will be driving in. I'd say collating in either Oxford or Swindon would make the most sense, since each is an hour from the rental. You can get a coach, bus or train from London and its airports, to there.

Having another car might be helpful though, given public transport near the rental will be limited. Two cars total should be plenty then.

Yeah, I did notice. Something went wrong when I was fiddling with the database a while ago. Just need to work out how to selectively restore from a backup, shouldn't be too hard.
#377
Changed that.  Although trying to use the site and forums without JS is going to limit its usability quite a bit!

Clicking on Download game brings up widow with 'Download Options for Frozen Kingdom'

This happens for all games... this was not how it was..

Yeah, as Cassie said, that's a new feature, designed to allow users to list multiple download types (different operating systems, and mirrors for each, or a store page and demo for commercial games).

Also, I unchecked Linux build..

That was a bug, sorted it now.

All booked!  Pitchers, Chipping Campden, England, from Friday 03 - Friday 10 July

At the current numbers it'll be £206 per person; I'll send a PM about payment.
#380
Yes, I know...  What are you actually reporting here?

Also, you've made a lot of games; if you're talking about an issue or comment with one you should really say which game you're referring to!
