Sadly, in less hilarious buggery, I was able to send a PM to Z successfully but somehow his reply back was lost.

Likely caused by a deleted post.

Very likely. Still, pretty buggy.

This is weird... I keep clicking "remember me" as I log in, but I still have to log in again every time I visit. I'm using MacOS 10.6.8 and Chrome 14.0.835.186.

EDIT 3.10.2o11: I keep seeing an error message, that usually goes away by refreshing the forums. Today it didn't, for a while... I'm just saying, I don't know how old this gnoll is.

----
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home4/birdfeud/public_html/attnam/db.php on line 11
Unable to connect
----

As a side note, my doubts in macs are being backed up every day I start this machine.

EDIT: It happens almost every time I type "www.attnam.com/forum" for the first time on my wife's account after booting the computer. Using my bookmark on my own account seems to work. After I refresh the page, I'm logged out even if I check remember me. What else...

I get a similar error every day as well. I'll edit in the information when I see it tomorrow.

This is it:
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 'unique = unique+1 WHERE id = '26798'' at line 1

Also, browsing the shoutbox history doesn't seem to work. I can't look at other pages, just the latest one.

Okay, renaming thread titles also seem broken.

Deleting posts appear broken as well! Oh dear!

Column 'id' in where clause is ambiguous

Working on stuff whenever I can. One improvement I made was with Youtube embeds.... you used to have to get the video ID, but now you can use the video ID or URL. Also they're embedded with a larger size.

That new thread you made (cutest thing ever) brought my browser to a grinding halt, then refused to play anything but the audio whilst the browser adamantly refused to let me do anything about it.

I point the rigid finger of accusation at the new youtube embed change

BUT i'll go try it again just in case.

EDIT: Upon reloading the page, the video worked as normal... up until the youtube player became unresponsive and kept on playing the video regardless of what I clicked.
Starting to think it could possibly be something on my end.
System would indicate in graphic if person is mounted on horse or not.
Same system also show if person mounted on boar, elephant, polar bear etc.
Or if person mounted on ass.
Ivan find mounting on ass funny.

Well it is using iframes, which are Youtube's preferred method of embedding video now, but are probably more intense for the browser to load.

I'm being 404'd on all of my message threads as well, the error is the same as Erno has except for the thread numbers.

Yeah, the thread number depends on the message. I tried about a third of them, none seems to work. Did you change the path or something?

Try again. There may be other similar errors where it links to a 404, please let me know if you find others.

The search function and the advanced edit button seem to be broken.

I think it's been mentioned before but when the first post on a new page of a thread is deleted, the new page remains, leaving a blank page.

I fixed deleting of posts as well but the code is too different, I can't push it live yet. I'm hoping that by tomorrow I can upload some of the major changes...

Posting some screenshots of the buggedness.

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with Firefox 3.6.23 for Ubuntu has some weird stuff going on with the header and menu bars on the top:


The bottom bar isn't showing correctly either:


The shoutbox bug, XP with Firefox 7.0.1:

Shoutbox looks fine for me. Firefox 7.0.1, Windows XP. Looks like I'm in the minority.
