This is a thread for reporting anything you believe to be a bug! We have just updated the forum to a whole new software version, so there are bound to be errors. Please post ALL bug reports here for the time being.


LIST OF KNOWN ISSUES (CHECK THIS LIST BEFORE POSTING):

  • Some BBcodes may be broken! Please DO NOT report BBcode issues here. Go to this thread instead.
  • Some permission settings may be broken. Please DO report any issues you have with viewing or using thread, post, or other tools.
  • The styles are not finished. Please DO report anything that causes visibility issues.
  • The Ads Manager and roleplay ad banners are currently unavailable. There is an error that is top priority to fix, don't worry.
  • Some Google Fonts are not displaying correctly.
  • The bump tool for threads is not compatible with 2.0. We are working to find a replacement but there is currently not a viable option. :[
  • Signatures are displaying full size rather than collapsing. We are also trying to fix this, but until then, please use smol signatures and do not stretch the page. Signatures now auto scroll if they are too tall.
  • Post ratings got eaten in the database transfer. We unfortunately can't do anything about this one. They still are counted towards your ranking for most likes on the Members page, but may not all appear on your posts or on your profile count. UPDATE: Post reaction counts for profiles should now be FIXED. Some reactions still did not transfer over, specifically those from deleted users or those given to posts by deleted users.
  • Custom site styles are no longer a thing because the new version of UIX does not include a style chooser. To make up for this, new site styles are on the way! We'll be adding a variety of color styles to go with our greyscale options. (ALSO CLOWN FIESTA.)
  • Prefixes for Inbox Conversations didn't make it, but you can now create categories!
  • STAR FORUMS ARE CURRENTLY NOT ACCESSIBLE. We are working on a fix for this but this one was a major nasty surprise. Please hold tight, this just became top priority. Go here to get this fixed!
  • Character Gallery bio fields are not displaying properly, but don't worry! They're not lost! We'll have them up as soon as possible. Bios are now visible! There is still an error with the field phrases though.
  • "Restricted" Clans are hidden to everyone except specific usergroups (currently, none). If your Clan is set to Restricted and you can no longer view it, contact an Admin for help.
  • Alerts are given for every new post reaction. Until this is fixed, you can turn off notifications for reactions in your Preferences.
  • Sidebars and conversation info may not be displaying in Firefox. Chrome and IE display correctly.
  • Dice roller and results are not displaying. They SHOULD still be in there, however, so we'll get those back soon. The new dice roller could not transfer the data in to the new system - HOWEVER the data still exists. If you need dice roll records, give us the post id for each roll and we can get that for you.
  • Zero Star is not hiding the star forums from the index.
  • Ban reasons now show on profiles and not on banned members' posts. Their posts are not greyed-out and their avatars are not removed. We lost this addon.
  • After leaving conversations, they still count towards the category tally.
  • The Ignore Forum function got lost. Currently no viable alternative addon.
  • Element Clans have reverted to gender selections. We'll switch this back ASAP, since we can't remove this field. GUESS WHAT? WE CAN FINALLY DELETE THIS. It is kill.
  • BbCode in Profile Posts is currently turned OFF due to a massive error. It will return once that error is fixed.

LIST OF KNOWN STYLE ISSUES

  • Roleplay resumes are squished and cut off in the thread view (below avatars).
  • Thread prefixes at the top of the forum index are scrolling endlessly to the right rather than moving to a new row. Fixed.
  • Mobile does not have an easy way to access your own profile from the dropdown menu.
  • Thread export is cutting off at 3000 posts. The cut off is now 300,000 posts. If that is not enough, damn.
  • Alert flags on mobile do not show unless you click the menu.
  • Conversations are squished.
  • Block notices are appearing below thread titles and tags.
  • There is a huge empty space on mobile between the user info and the post field for posts.

Not a bug. Warning and roleplay both look like info but different colors, now. (They didn't use to have boxes like that, either.) I'm hoping we can fix this but it's a later-on-down-the-road thing.

Don't really think it's a bug but it's something missing and perhaps the why is related to the upgrade. Dice roll results on posts are purged and I don't think there's an option to make some dice rolls on our posts as of now.

That's strange. Permissions are set so you should be able to see dice results and also throw dice. We'll look into what's causing that problem but your rolls should still be in there.

See this disgusting horizontal scroll bar?

That's in the Security section because the list of thread prefixes up at the top just keeps on spreading out to the right instead of wrapping around like it used to. It needs a-fixin'.

If you click the cogwheel in the editor it will turn it off and it should remain off unless you click it again, site-wide

PS: It might not cross over between devices tho, so make sure to turn it off on every different device you use

When editing your user details and attempting to save, the site tells you 'please enter a valid name.' I looked through all the boxes and couldn't figure out what it was referring to, unless for some reason the household members box was marked as required.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a change, but signatures can't be set to collapsed anymore.
And some people have some reaaally big signatures XD

There seems to be one on mobile, but for the desktop site the top bar that scrolls with you doesn't have a home button so you need to scroll back to the top to click it.
 
The bimg code appears to have died D: is there an easy replacement in the current bbcodes without using divs? I scrolled through and couldn't find one.
 
Post reactions didn't all transfer over (fully, anyway).

If I click on any of those individually, I can still see all the times I've given or received those reactions, but they don't sum up properly in the profile overview.

Also, there doesn't appear to be a quick or easy way to view your profile on mobile. It used to be in the hovering top bar. Now I figured it would be in the sidebar, but it's not there either.

EDIT TO ADD:
Thanks to this very post, I have also learned that the in-line image editor:

^ that thing, doesn't seem to resize images correctly. I tried numerous times to resize my monstrous cell phone screengrab and it wouldn't size down. Clicking and dragging the corners doesn't seem to work either.

This is the best I could do, but it's divs.

Code:
[url=link]
	[div=
		background-position: top -1px;
		height: 150px;
		width: 150px; 
		background: url(image link);
		background-size: cover;
		float: right;
		border: 2px solid;
		border-radius: 10px;]
	[/div]

That will probably be ironed out when we figure out how to fix the whole system again.

I can't seem to replicate this, can you tell me what you're editing maybe?

@Kitti I was editing some of my prefences (squicks, archetypes).

And whoops missed the note on the signatures in the first post, thanks!
