Log of site issues
Yes, thank you! Just in time for the Fall Festival!
Interesting that this instantly fixed the problem. Do you think it was an issue with the previous server itself? Or are we working right now because the wiki is currently offline and we'll start having issues again once it's back up? It seemed to be the cause of most of the problems we had in the past, and it seems odd that we're suddenly running great right now when it's down. Though if this latest problem was just due to a dying server then the correlation would just be coincidence.

Thanks Shadowpaw! As always, you are the best.

Ha, this explains a lot of things! I'm glad that everything's working now!
I noticed a couple weeks ago that the visitor tracker stopped working. "Who is online" still works, but "Who was here?" doesn't.
Not a major problem if whatever happened isn't an easy fix, just noting it for the record.

It's so nice to have it working again! When it was broken, it really made this place look like a ghost town.bookworm wrote:I noticed a couple weeks ago that the visitor tracker stopped working. "Who is online" still works, but "Who was here?" doesn't.

In other news, when I try to access the User Control Panel I get this error message.

Yeah, Bren also mentioned this to me just a few minutes ago. I looked into it and resolved the issue. Just a configuration conflict with a script that's now fixed. YAY!!snubspaw wrote:In other news, when I try to access the User Control Panel I get this error message.The ToO wrote:Forbidden

The site seemed slower to load the last couple days, but it's working great right now. Might have just been my connection.

Nah. It’s been slow for me too.

Not for me. It's still a bit slow. Particularly on my phone. Not so much on my PC.bookworm wrote:Has been, but it's lightning fast now.

I have some ideas why it's being so slow randomly, but I don't think we can do much about it at this point. I'll do my best to investigate further. Thanks for the reports! It helps to know what everyone else is experiencing on here!

There does seem to be a higher amount of bot traffic lately than in years past. I haven't seen the guest counter below 50.

Still working great for me, and I mean lightning fast. I do not remember the last time it's run this well. Not that it was abnormally slow usually (before the last week) it had a perfectly normal load time; but this is abnormally fast right now.
The ToO has been working great for me as well.

I don't know if this is only a NewToO theme issue, but I'm probably one of only two people that use it, but the Skype button has no image at the bottom of peoples' posts. Not that it matters, just happened to notice it just now.

Use the chatroom! It's been active for a year, and most of you are missing it.
Actually, I’m pretty sure in all the themes it’s broken. It’s supposed to show a person’s online status and change accordingly, but it’s broken. With the new default, we just decided to add an icon/image to cover it (and make it look fixed.DanP740 wrote:I don't know if this is only a NewToO theme issue, but I'm probably one of only two people that use it, but the Skype button has no image at the bottom of peoples' posts.

Yeah, Skype discontinued their online API, which is what the board uses to get an image that shows whether the user is online or not. With the API is gone, the image doesn't show. I put a placeholder into newToO just for you, Dan! It's not perfect, but it's a little better.snubspaw wrote:Actually, I’m pretty sure in all the themes it’s broken.

Is there a way to add the social networks that have popped up since Facebook, especially since most of the options aren't really around anymore?

I'm sure there is (looks at Eugene), but that's something that would likely happen when the ToO gets updated.DanP740 wrote:Is there a way to add the social networks that have popped up since Facebook, especially since most of the options aren't really around anymore?
