Sorry everyone, searching got hosed in the update and we didn't catch it. With the move to the new version we had to move to Apache Solr, which we not have and it appears to be running great. Searching is screaming fast now.

I am still seeing some lockups from time to time. Has only been this evening in, say, the past two hours.

Looks to be related to the one bad thread. Hoping that people stop trying to view that soon and the issue clears up.

I am noticing that posting from Safari on the iPhone is massively improved. All kinds of things are fixed.
Ewww....even on an iPhone...Safari? Really? You know they have Chrome for iPhone, right?
Note: another case that proves Google is superior. You don't hear of people downloading an Apple browser on Android.
-
@ajstringham I didn't know until recently till someone on here schooled me but there isn't Chrome for iPhone. Safari is the only browser allowed on iPhone. The chrome app is just a wrapper on Safari.

Or another case of how Android is promoted through misconception. You hear about things that are untrue on one side and don't hear about things that don't exist on the other.
I download alternate browsers on both platforms - in one case all are Safari. In the other Safari is not an option.
Statements like that make people not want to use Android.

Statements like that make me ignore the people making the statements.

Chat is kinda screwed. in order to see messages that I send, and the same to see chats from other people. I too dislike the preview window, and the super ultra nested/deleteallthedata quoting is funny.
-
Agreed, I dislike the preview window - though I guess the point is that people can see pictures that they are including in their post, assuming that part works
Test of picture in preview
ug.. maybe the picture upload is broke now too? it stopped at 76%, I did leave the window alone for 60 seconds before pressing submit.
and I received a brief overlay error but didn't catch what it said in time.
-
OK picture worked the second time I tried.. and it does show up in the preview window.
-
I'm not sure if this was mentioned earlier - but the notifications aren't clearing themselves as you visit the posts like they did before. They now only seem to clear when you actually click on them.
My ADD is buggin' since I can't get rid of the red number over the little bell.
-
When I post a new topic it posts three, two blank and one with the message.

That's the first that I have heard if that. What browser?
-
@scottalanmiller Chrome
-
@thecreativeone91 wow. In Windows?
-
@scottalanmiller Mac OS 10.10
-
@thecreativeone91 hmmm... Not too many Mac users. Maybe @katie or @minion-queen could test too.
-
Overall it seemed like a good day today. And a lot of people were busy posting too, it was not a slow day.
-
Doesn't look like the updates that were done ( if they were done) fixed the chat. just FYI, for what we pay for this place, it can have a few quirks
