Forum Bug Report

I found a problem… not shure if its a bug or not…

Was trying to send Rasauul a link to the Modular station kit in the downloads… but part 1 don’t play nice… it seems as if its just not there

Is it still pending… or did something judge fudge along the way??

EDIT:… is oki… seems i was looking at the wrong file 8-)
all good now… still a little messy in there though… lolz kinda like an overflowing pirate booty chest… hardi har har, hehe.

OK FF, I now can see the forum topics in the FlSES area

ty ^^

@Bas: sigh I hate Xoops’ caching. Good to know it seems to be fixed now, finally.

Bug: The forum software fucks up with special letters in the preview such as ä, ö, ü or ß.

My timezone is GMT+10 (Brisbane, which doesn’t have daylight saving, unlike the others, which do, but it hasn’t started yet). My posts are reported as being 1 hour in the future - my clock says 12:52, but the post says 13:52.

When creating a message, the attachment states the “Maxium” file size (missing m between i & u).

Would it be possible to have a divider between messages in the history? And/or put the subject in bold?

The history/changes pages in wiki could also need some reworking - bad font and background colors.

Well I got an Problem on the Front Page:

Whenever a Video from Freeworlds get’s played, I get an Error of 150. I’m using Google Chrome out of Germany, and it seems Like those videos are blocked in Germany, because I can’t view them on Youtube eigther.
So is this a Youtube Problem or an Problem of your Player, I really want to get rid of that freaking error!

Edit: Also happened in Firefox right now.

Well, I guess disabling the auto-play functionality would be better anyways, since I dont think its good to autoplay videos on any website. It could be a standard embedded Youtube video, which would solve the error message popping up (I get the error as well).

There. I’ve long given up hope of people actually taking advantage of the video feature, so I might as well give in and make it not play anymore.

I hope you are satisfied, even though I wonder what the point of it is now.

Well… I thought it was a good idea FF and had no probs with it… tes the Autoplay was/is a slight problem… but the vid feature is groovy please don’t take it down.

Right. Tell me: how many people do you seriously believe will actually click on “Play” when there’s no video rolling?

Well maybe you could just disable the error message popup, it has to be somewhere in the js code, I like the autoplaying, and we from FFS will soon publish our video here(when the new mod is ready)
It was just something I noticed a few times, if you can’t sole it, no problem, if you can, it would be nice.

Thanks for your work here FF

Well thats true, I just think that user control about bandwidth critical apps like videos should not be decreased.

I’ve also removed the error popup; instead the error code will replace the video controls should one pop up. Much less intrusive and I’m surprised I didn’t do it already to be honest

@w0dk4: Well then, what do you propose? You can’t make a video play while not taking any bandwidth and not making the video play defeats the purpose of having that on the front page in the first place…

Well that’s as good as it’ll get. I’ve made some smaller buttons to leave more space for an autoplay feature. You can then select whether you want to have the videos play automatically or not.

By default, they play.
