New Forum Bug Reports

[ladymuck]

Is anyone else having issues with multiquote? I seem to find it only includes one quoted post, sometimes none. Modern forums often let you explicitly pick the multi-quotes for inclusion so I'm not sure if that functionality is present and I cannot find it, or it's buggy.

It's borked

so, instead of one mouseclick, we need to do several for each individual forum? there's progress for you

Not quite. You can do all fora at once from the mark all channels read link at the bottom of the forums home page or you be more selective and do them individually

Go to Forum, underneath the list of forums there's a link to click.

It's also visible in each individual forum, either underneath the list of sub forums or at the bottom of the first page of posts.

The >> 'go to last post' link is being erratic. It seems quite random as to which page it takes you to.

Playing up in TPD (not a good example, considering) and Word Associations for me at the moment.

Kind of covered previously, but a specific use case that might help to track down the bold unread threads in forum bold indicator still showing for forums where all threads have been read in that forum

- View a forum with no unread threads
- Reply to a thread
- Go back to the thread list within that forum
- There will be no bold threads since you've read the post you've just written
- Go back to forum list, the forum in which you've just replied to a thread will be bold (indicating an unread post)
- Go into that forum, no bold threads marked

Something very odd with the searches in google.

I've just done a search using the normal google method. A lot of the threads returned say 'You are not logged in or you do not have permission to access this page' in the description and if I click the link it takes me to the page but with a response started as if I'd responded with a quote. I am currently logged in.

The URL for the Purchased Laptop for example is https://www.contractoruk.com/forums/...eplyto=2800368

With a reply to on the end? Never seen that before.

Yes, that was a problem - Google started following the links to the "Reply to thread" page

I've set noindex on that page now, so it should disappear from the search index as Google revisits.
