In case this got lost with all the site update work happening. Here's an example of the problem:

All the images in this thread have been been swapped by chinese panda drawings

Looks to me that that's a problem of where the pictures were hosted, and not a problem with our site or forum.
I checked the site where the pics where hosted, and besides everything being in chinese (?), which I can't read, all images there also look like those with a panda. So to me kind of looks that the site got hacked and all images were replaced with those panda pics.

In the Search, ticking "Search in topic subjects only" does not work and causes errors every time.

Considering that the thread is more than 10 years old, it's reasonable to think that the original image hosting site/hosted images are lost anyway.

Profiles won't save a birthdate it resets everytime you change the profile.

On the front page, From the Forums lists two posts from new user davidjuhl in recent posts - one in What song are you listening to right now and one in a tech thread about Rotating Sprites. However, when i click on these, I get to the thread but don't see his posts. They don't show up in Recent Posts either.

In unrelated events, there's been an entry on the games page from someone named Jacob McGriff - a game called Chef Pishgetti. The entry seems to be blank - no link, no image. And no way of contacting Mr McGriff to help him out.

These posts have been deleted because the user was identified as a spammer. That posts now in the trashbin show up on the front page is probably a bug.

Posts from the recycle bin aren't listed. I'm guessing heltenjon managed to load the page while the posts were still in a public place, but by the time he clicked the links they'd been moved to a private location. Not really a use case I can account for programmatically!

I can't find any history of a user named Jacob McGriff, or that game, so all we can really do is disable the game and let it rest.

I think image zoom does not work again. When I click x2, x3 etc, the image simply dissapears.

AGA · Sat 30/04/2022 12:17:07

Zoom is fixed in the next version of the forums, which should hopefully be done quite soon. Not worth trying to fix it in this deprecated version!

Should I report new forum bugs here?

I noticed that spoilers do not work correctly, instead the "hide" tags are displayed verbatim.
Did syntax change or they are broken? If syntax changed, is there a way to convert the topics to the new one automatically?

AGA wrote in the thread AGS Website Redesign, which probably is a bit misleadingly placed in Adventure Related Talk and Chat.

Edit: Ah, now the

Yes, i confirm, hide works now, thank you.

As a Firefox user (v102, Linux) : I cannot close the banner for agreeing use of cookies.
(no × item to close it).

It is always here and doesn't disappear when i click on a subject or a sub-forum.

I've tested with Chromium and it's ok : i have the × mark to close the windows.

I have disabled uBlock and uMatrix extensions (thinking may be the closing-cross was coming from the outer-banned-space), with no changes.

I worst case, a rule in uMatrix will hide the banner, but hey. May be there are cleaner solutions.

Thank you.

It works fine in Firefox on various Windows and Mac versions. No idea what the issue is on Linux, but unless you can give me an idea of the actual issue there isn't much I can do! Do you see any errors in the developer console or networks tab?

I have looked at debug console, but didn't found any related errors/warning (just a warning about cookies Cookie "ct_prev_referer" does not have a proper "SameSite" attribute value , seems related to youtube css so doesn't concern my issue).

As it's working properly with chrome, i believe some obscure problem on my side with my addons.
I've just made a rule in uBlock for zapping the DIV element, and it's gone.
I was asking just in case someone else had this issue.

AGA · Thu 29/09/2022 19:06:54

Try again? I've changed the default behaviour of the cookie div to be hidden, so if a user has the cookies or scripting disabled somehow it just won't show.

js · Sun 02/10/2022 15:42:45

Excuse me, i hadn't seen your answer.

Thank you for the change, with scripts disabled on first-level domain (that is, this one) cookie div is hidden.

I've removed my rule for checking, of course.

As i think i will authorize scripts from this site (who knows what could be broken otherwise), i will just use my « cosmetic rule » for hiding cookie banner.
