Okay, so for some reason I didn't get a yellow chest for the RGO thread when I logged in, but I got the one with the linux compiling.

Yup, no yellow chest for Eagle's latest post. RGO seems to have problems.

Clicking the "Preview" button when posting a reply does nothing.

It works, scroll down... it loads the preview underneath the post you are composing. Not very intuitive, I know. Maybe I'll add a loading GIF and scroll you down when it's ready.

Why not stick the preview above the post instead? That's the standard on pretty much every other forum I've seen.

The dropdown menu offset is pretty wonky. (Chrome v. 32.0.1700.102, 1650*1080 monitor with browser fullscreen)

Something broke the quote box in http://www.attnam.com/posts/23802#23802 although when I tried to edit it, the code looks perfectly normal. Maybe the brackets?

Could you automatically substitute them with the html code?

Is it just me, or is the second page of the out of context thread broken?

I think what happened was I deleted a post that would have tipped it over the 2nd page limit, but it was not there anymore.

It was my post, by the way.

I wasn't seeing anything on the second page, before or after I added a post. Seems fine now though.

When writing a quick reply, both the font color and font size open to a weird location, next to the post reply button. The font size chart is also a bit squeezed together, and 30 doesn't fit on one row.

My Engrish bad. Please check self.

It seems quoting [Eire]MadHatter doesn't work properly. I'm assuming that's because of the square brackets in the name, so the quotations aren't ruling them except to the code?

" wrote

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.

Well.. confirming what Warheck said in another thread. Even if you are in the Developers group, you can see the forum, but when you click on a topic it says you don't have permissions. I'll try to address some of the more pressing bugs this weekend, including that one.

Also, this is more of a UI flaw than a bug, but I guess it's tough to even know that an IVAN Developers forum exists in the first place, unless you click the "Forum" tab.

The "Advanced" button under Quick Reply doesn't work for me, though the Advanced option while editing does.

I don't think this has been mentioned already, anything "www." turns into a link. See this post.
Possible fixes off the top of my head: checking there is a non-letter character before the first w or validating link via regex (eg, at least two dots seperated by at least one alphanumerical character)

hahaha. I think it's checking for the 31st day of each month and fetching the month name.
So January 31 = January 31
February 31 = March 3
March 31 = March 31
April 31 = May 1
etc

Things put within "code" blocks don't appear as they should in advanced editing mode's preview (and therefore probably advanced posting too). They don't highlight anything until the post is actually live.

The link on the front page "Please read about the site downtime this weekend" links to the thread "do we have a pictures thread?"
