New Forums on WinCustomize.com!
Wednesday, July 19, 2006 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
The forum refresh, that first came to the main Stardock and Galactic Civilizations 2 forums has made its way to WinCustomize.com today. After a great deal of feedback from users, the forums now more closely resemble other web forums in style and function.
We also hope that these new forums will alleviate some of the technical issues users had been experiencing in the past. If you have any comments/feedback on the new forums, please leave them in a comment here.

| I can't get from one page to the other. For example in this thread, I can see posts 1-50, but then I can't change to 51-53. I tried it forward and backward, on the top of the page, as well as on the bottom. No go. Also, I can only post in advanced mode (otherwise I get an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"-error, and my line breaks don't show as well. Using Firefox 1.5.0.3. |
We only support the latest version of Firefox. Please upgrade to 1.5.0.4. I am unable to reproduce an object reference error when posting a reply at the bottom of a post (not in advanced mode). Using Firefox 1.5.0.4.
| Any way of customizeing the forum time stamps? I'm getting confused by dates when the month comes before the day. |
Not at this time, no. Please post here for suggestions and the people who make the calls on new features will have a look at them. https://forums.wincustomize.com/?AID=124365
| What the!? I hit reply in the new forum and all of a sudden I'm back in the old forum when it comes back up!? And yup...I can see I'm gonna really miss the old style forum. |
Your browser may be holding onto an old cached page or css file. You might try clearing it. Also, there is no going back to the old style, and no way to view the old style any longer.

Well that's progress at least. I know how to trap that error a little sooner now.
Do you have javascript disabled, sites blocked or some kind of app running that is interfering with javascript? I'm going to implement some error handling here, but my guess is that as soon as it's up, you're just going to get a friendly message about the post text being empty.
(Just to clarify, for me, please answer these...)
Does posting a new Post work?
Does posting your reply through the advanced mode work?
Does posting your reply through the non-advanced mode work?

Okay,
I just posted a comment to try to help (comment #7 here https://forums.wincustomize.com/?aid=123028#963115)
I pasted the URL to the mini tutorial in due to this being the way it was working previous to the change.
The link did not take, so I attempted to edit and use the "URL link" button to create the link, and after resubmitting the spacing was lost.

Ok, I edited above post to add the "Nope, seems to work well....."-bit, and although I ticked "plain text" format, I lost all the code again.
Note that the initial post through "post comment" worked fine and showed a line break between "account" and "Test". It's just the editing that mucked it up. I tried to re-edit the above test several times and submitted it in "plain text" but each time it just resets to "Html".
