Argus Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I've noticed, of late, that sometimes when I reply to two different people, or sometimes three, on the same topic, the system puts them all together into one reply. How do I stop it from doing that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Anthony Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I do not think you can stop it. I am referring this to Greg for now. I believe it requires his permissions to fix or adjust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argus Posted September 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 I do not think you can stop it. I am referring this to Greg for now. I believe it requires his permissions to fix or adjust. Sometimes it makes sense. Sometimes it doesn't. When I have a long reply to multiple points of one poster, and then reply to a different poster on a different aspect of the discussion, and the system appends that to the first reply it's quite possible the second poster will never even notice that I replied to them. Nobody reads the entirety of every post on a given topic, after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Admin Greg Posted September 21, 2016 Forum Admin Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 OK, I'll look into it AFTER we migrate to the new server and after we upgrade the forum software. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argus Posted September 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 It's a relatively recent thing. I sometimes have to exit a topic, post on another, then come back to post on the first again in order to avoid having the system collate my replies into one.

GostHacked Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Can you give me an example Argus? I've seen this too .. also the new update seemed to have broken a lot of formatting for the site. Everything looks way off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Admin Greg Posted September 22, 2016 Forum Admin Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I've seen this too .. also the new update seemed to have broken a lot of formatting for the site. Everything looks way off. Yup, I noticed the issues too. To be honest, the best thing to do is change the theme (lower left-hand side) back to IP.Board (from Maple Leaf Web V3). Once the site is migrated, and the forum software is upgraded, the theme will revert to the default IP.Board theme - at least until I find the time create a new custom theme. Thanks!

Forum Admin Greg Posted September 22, 2016 Forum Admin Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Ok I selected the V3 and formatting is still off. Ha, ya, i noticed that shortly after I told you the should solve the problem - sorry about that! It'll get fixed. However, in the mean time, can you try something for me - can you try to upload a new profile photo and see if that corrects the issue? It seems to be only affecting certain posters...

That means something did not migrate properly from one format to the other, or your links to where files are is broken. Check if the files are linked in the same way. Reply box is all skewered too. When I am looking at the code Your profile pic is linked to an external site .. mine is local to MLW, I am <li class='avatar'> <a itemprop="url" href="http://www.mapleleafweb.com/forums/user/983-gosthacked/" title="View Profile: GostHacked" class='ipsUserPhotoLink'> <img itemprop="image" src='http://www.mapleleafweb.com/forums/uploads/profile/photo-983.png?_r=1189827200' class='ipsUserPhoto ipsUserPhoto_large' /> You are <li class='avatar'> <a itemprop="url" href="http://www.mapleleafweb.com/forums/user/2-greg/" title="View Profile: Greg" class='ipsUserPhotoLink'> <img itemprop="image" src='http://www.gravatar.com/avatar/6767fea4adcf444e2d8211a8e9082ea5?s=100&d=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mapleleafweb.com%2Fforums%2Fpublic%2Fstyle_images%2FMLW_Images_V2%2Fprofile%2Fdefault_large.png' class='ipsUserPhoto ipsUserPhoto_large' /> Edited September 22, 2016 by GostHacked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GostHacked Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Did you try to upload a new profile photo? I should not have to. This is affecting a good deal of the profile pics on the forum. Looking at their forums, things get even more broke from V3 to V4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bush_cheney2004 Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 (edited) Did you try to upload a new profile photo? Yes...the profile photo upload worked swell (Firefox & Chrome). We can survive such inconveniences while the forum engine upgrade and migration is completed. Thanks for your hard work for site administration.

Charles Anthony Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I found a setting that disables the automatic merging of concurrent posts. If it happens again, please Report the post in question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonam Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Did you try to upload a new profile photo? The problem is not just the profile photos but seemingly (almost) all images on the site. These include the "new reply" image on the "New Content" page as well as the topic name + post number image on every post. The overall effect is very jarring.

GostHacked Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Greg Site seems fine on my work rig, no issues there (pic and formatting is fine). Still weirdness with my pc at home though. (no pic and formatting is off) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
