Just a heads up, I believe I've found the cause of the recent SQL error plague.

 

You might notice your notifications are now empty. Looking at the database usage, I realized that notification storage counted for 6.6  gigabytes out of the databases total size was 8.3... so this was a pretty sizeable chunk. The size of peoples notification inbox was certainly massive strain the server trying to search through that large of a database table.

 

As a result, I have emptied out all notifications, and am now enforcing a notification limit, users can have a maximum number of 30 active notifications before it starts automatically replacing the oldest one. 30 should be plenty to give people an overview of the status on their followed topics, but I will raise it if  the need arises.

I believe he used the word "believed" in the hope it is fixed :P

 

You can be surprised how many notifications you can get in one day :P

Didn't read through the entire thread and thought a new header was needed. I suggest to update the first post, new users may think you are still looking for a new header.

What I can say about the layout flaws if could be of any use is this:

 

-the download section isn't really user-friendly, not at the beginning at least, then you get accustomed, but is it possible to improve the lateral menu with bigger fonts?

 

-the download button (and generally the other too) on the header has very little impact, it's hardly visible.

 

- that header changing non-stop, the feauterd download one. It resizes in the transition (I'm using Firefox if could be related in any way) and the entire menu goes up and down every few seconds. It's rather annoying, should be good every few minutes, not seconds.

 

That's all.

Easy enough CSS fixes. Made the font on the categories bigger and darkened the top navigation to make it easier to see.

Excellent work on all of this Ashal, load times for posting, etc, seem to be very good, site is overall quite responsive with regards to the amount of content and traffic. I ran several network related tests, nslookup, dns, ping, and such, all had very good times. Checked some of the Java issues I had read that others seem to be having, I did not encounter any of these at this time, all queries and scripts are running well with no noticeable wait time or lag.

Having some severe login problems.

 

- Can't login normally without using a proxy, the request just times out and login doesn't complete.

- Can't reset password as the request just times out and the page never loads.

A couple of issues to report:

 

- since today, the mobile interface is not working anymore. I get the full site layout when I use my phone.

- for the past couple of weeks at least, there is no 'spoiler' button on my editor toolbar.

- Works fine for me, however there should be a button in the bottom left corner to switch it back.

- Just type the tag in manually.

Not sure if this is on my end or a browser issue, but thought it might be worth noting. When I try to use the "Link" feature after filling in all the information the dialog box will not disappear and progress. the web page behind it remains greyed out and the function stalls, requiring the page to be closed and reopened. Cut and paste are also not working, I am unable to cut and paste anything into a reply or new post. I am using IE 11 at this time. I may try to test this with Firefox to see if I get the same results.

Kind Regards,

CaryWinton

 

Edit Update: Apparently the copy and paste function seems to be part of a problem with Internet Explorer 11, Several other IP Board based sites are reporting the same issue with IE 11. The only reason I have found has something to do with "Advanced Editor". I tried resetting IE 11 to default condition and this did not change the copy and paste issue. I am still investigating this problem and will get back to this post if I find a solution. If anyone else knows of a solution for this, please post it, thanks.

yeah the button was put in to alleviate the typing. Having the button is an efficient use of time. It's gone now, so dude was reporting it.

Could we add a spoiler button and get rid of that god-awful pop-up script for when you try to save a reduced size image in a thread?

 

A script like the image#1 on this page which allows you to save via right click rather than having to scroll all the way to the right only to have to click a "save" (bullshit) button to make it open in a new tab anyways (it's more inconvenient than it is convenient lol) - http://lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox/

 

If you want to keep the current one, then...

 

FIND:

#imageContainer > #hoverNav {
    left: 0px;
}
REPLACE WITH:

#imageContainer > #hoverNav {
    left: 0px;
    display: none;
}
Also, if anyone wants to fix it for themselves in the meantime they can use this stylish script:

 

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document domain("loverslab.com") {

#imageContainer > #hoverNav {
    display: none !important;
}

}

Is this about the annoying popup window that darkens the site when you try to click on a picture? A possible way for a user-side workaround is to disable scripts, then you can right-click the images; however it doesn't work on images in spoilers because spoilers don't work without scripts...

 

But yeah, a convenient way to look at images posted on the forum would be nice.

They'e looking  at us... Us, who are looking for different stuff. When different stuff is "BAD" and "INAPPROPRIATE"... F*T*A*!!!! Yes we lives for DEVIANT (sexual... so what?) arts, but is it so essential to reminds us, this is VIRTUAL? When fantasy stay VIRTUAL for us, maybe it's real life for Them... who knows...?

Slightly silly request:

 

Integrate some more orange into the website, it's a highly underused beautiful colour! (even just small highlights would be welcome :D)

(Or even a seasonal sorta orange theme is welcome, like something for halloween!)

 

Serious Request:

 

Anyway to just keep the Downloads 'thread' and the 'support topic' thread merged into just 1 thread?

Or is their a negative to doing this?

 

edit: Oh yea forgot about the likeable links button idea I had, I believe I sent a pm to a mod asking about it and he linked it to ashal, dunno if he had the chance to look at it, but here's the gist of it:

 

Some sort of feature/function so that if I post a 'like' button link users can click on it to like another person.

The reason behind this is I work on a huge collaboration project, and while I'm the public 'face' of the 'mod' it could never be achievable without the great help of the other members and I'd like them to receive and equal chance in sharing the likes (they deserve it more than me and I feel sorta guilty hoarding those likes...)

Hah ! You are just like the singer of a band, blabba... cool and sexy for the masses but actually you don't do much for the team, huh ? :P

 

I like your idea. ;)

 

 

EDIT - As my topic was closed because this thread exists, I'm telling you guys what I'd like to see : a Latest Updates panel. That would be useful imho.

 

EDIT 2 - I'm experiencing some :

 

502 Bad Gateway

nginx/1.4.1

 

errors sometimes on the forums, is it normal ?
