Bug reports - NEW

uptime

Noticing a few fresh accounts dropping SEO spam links via their profile page.

Not seeing any easy way to flag these (other than PM to @AnthonySmith) ...

Was considering to create a dedicated thread in "Off Topic" (not indexed) for flagging spam, but really not sure how that would pan out. Perhaps there might be a better method?

Anyway - current spam accounts: @jvoo75188 and @muneedrogers

You can always post the profile links on my profile I will get a notification

Thanks for that by the way.

More of a feature request: Could you add that the "Thanked by" shows a counter like on LET? Anything over 5 thanks gets kinda hard to guesstimate the amount of thanks.

The non-www version of lowendspirit.com 521s for me, www works fine.

www removed, that was an oversight, main site restored, lots of little changes to make this week.

In Chrome/IOS, the image insert drop down in the editor (in a thread or pm) pops up, accepts a url, but has no save button. Pressing return clears and doesn’t insert the image.

No clear work around.

@Solaire that one rings a bell, was that a ‘can’t fix’ issue?

It can be fixed but requires modifications to the Vanilla Core which will break future updates. That said, I might have an idea or two on how to solve this without having to modify the Vanilla Core after getting some more experience in working with Vanilla.

I've been busy but when I get to it, here's the backlog with items I've collected, I've added this one to the top: https://trello.com/b/MkZALvDX/lowendspirit

Not sure if already reported, or if that's just being extremely sensitive - but clicking the gear top right of a post to edit it - canceling that edit and then trying to re-open the edit dialogue won't show the gear's drop-down menu again.

Yep it is known, needs some core changes though and @Solaire is a busy busy bee atm irl.

Edit: NVM this is a bug on hostballs. Visiting too many forums.

Well, yeah, its the official troll badge?

Fair enough

Was just wondering if there might be some other use of that colour combination elsewhere in the CSS that might cause issues.

Fair play - maybe there's no trolling in the dark?

Nope, it's not used elsewhere

There's something broken with editing a post.

I posted something in a code snippet in c'est pit, realised no spacing and tried to edit it and replace it with the quote setting by clicking the option at the top of a post and it just f5's the page. Same thing happened when trying to change it to a spoiler.

Works fine on the original comment.

Context: Dark mode, Firefox, Linux, etc.

Edit: Just to double check, I edited this post, tried adding/replacing a quote/spoiler and the page refreshed with no changes saved.

When you view your number of thanks on the profile page, there's a space missing between the count and the first name.

It's been a while since I have been able to load the forum my work phone (Lumia 640, Windows 10 Mobile, Edge as web browser).
Yes, it's a Microsoft phone and its been discontinued, but it still gets the job done.

You could've just forced it to be wide 100% of the viewarea tbh

That would assume I was considering mobile, which I never do, also I have HTML only pockets to work with.

sorted, I left an HTTP link in the article.

Probably I am missing something, but, there is no "Cancel" button for the "Leave a Comment" field. So, if I start to leave a comment and change my mind, what seems to happen is that the page saves forever that which was written in the "Leave a Comment" field without having clicked "Post Comment." How does one cancel or otherwise make a clean exit after starting to leave a comment but then deciding not to? Thanks!

Just in the last few days, without my seemingly having changed anything on my Android phone, Chrome seems to have started displaying some LES pages (but not T.LES pages) in Lite mode:

So far I'm unaware of specific problems LITE causes, but maybe we ought to be aware of the possibil(oh)ity that there could be hidden problems?

no idea, my new phone arrives on Saturday so I will test it then.

Would like to request a feature: When you're logged out and click on the login button, it should auto-focus on the username box without any further action from the user to do so

I would not know where to start with that however I will consult with @Solaire might be something that can be done, if it is fairly quick I can get that done however you will appreciate given that it only saves 1 click or touch it won't be a high priority as I have just set out a schedule of work.

Nice one though, every little convenience and removal of minor irritations makes it a better experience so I (really) appreciate the input.

Is there a RSS feed for user discussions? I'd like to track the offers from specific providers

imok

Thanks. But I mean a feed containing only the discussions by a specific user.

Something like https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/imok/discussions.rss but it has wall posts instead.

Anyway, I think I can filter the main discussions feed.

Thank you!

InceptionHosting

https://talk.lowendspirit.com/profile/comments/imok is about as close as it will get, not is rss standard/format but maybe easy to crawl with a basic script that checks for updates.

Should be easy to do, assuming it's not a core change. I'll look into it when I'm working with Vanilla.
