General Discussion Rachel the Great - Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 15:28

How many of you are having trouble editing your comments? Your forum posts? Your bookreviews? Give details at to what you can and cannot edit here, along with any error reports you receive.

My master account basically lets me do everything, so I cannot tell what you guys can or cannot do. That's why you have to tell me:
If you can edit your book reviews.
If you can delete your book reviews.

If you can edit your comments.
If you can delete your comments.

If you can edit your forum topics.
If you can delete your forum topics.

02.18.06 Update: Try editing your book reviews now. I applied a patch that may or may not have fixed the situation.

02.19.06 Update: Comments are now displayed flat, i.e. no more threaded discussions. You should all be able to edit your comments at any time in any place now. Please let me know if this is not the case. You can also quote comments now. That should be fun :) It's much more like Gaia's boards, ne?

02.20.06 Update: You can now edit all your comments. Still dunno how to let you delete 'em. Might not ever be able to. But, hey, you can edit. That's good, ne?

Nothing really to report...

I once had a problem getting italics and bold to work, but that seems to have been fixed awhile ago...

Rachel the Great; Saturday, February 18, 2006 - 01:02

That's because one of the signatures is called from the database and will change dynamically when its owner changes it in user preferences. The other was hard-coded and only editable by the user (providing we can let users edit their comments). I assure you that it is not an error on the script's part, as it will not happen in future posts. Also, I changed my signature on purpose. It was not swallowed. It is too long, though.

I can edit my comments everywhere except for the forums, there isn't a button for those. I haven't tried editing a forum topic yet, but I can edit blog entries. I hope that helps...

EDIT: Aha! I can edit here now <3

Troubles

FlameSkyeFox; Saturday, February 18, 2006 - 18:29

Here are things that I've encountered so far. I don't see a place to edit my old comments. I think there are still problems replying to my topics (I'm not sure though). Also, I ran across the following error message (once only though):
"Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mangapunk.com/httpdocs/test/modules/bookreview/bookreview.module on line 22"

Rachel the Great; Saturday, February 18, 2006 - 21:29

That error was me fiddling with the book review module. My bad.

As for the editing, it should be accessible (should) through an "edit" link at the bottom of each of your comments. I take it that this link is not present?

I think that's because...

CrowChick; Sunday, February 19, 2006 - 01:42

If you delete one comment, you delete all the posts that replied to it??

It's confirmed. If you delete a post (at least with the "reply to individual posts" option turned on), all its replies get flushed, too. There is a way to fix this:

We switch the replies to "flat" so we can no longer reply to individual posts, but I also add the "quote" module that will allow us to quote one another's replies and distinguish between who is replying to whom (kinda like on Gaia).

Either that or you get used to being unable to delete posts. This needs a vote. SPEAK OUT ON THIS, PEOPLE!

Actually, now you can edit any of your posts, even if somebody has replied to them :)

No edit.

FlameSkyeFox; Sunday, February 19, 2006 - 02:06

There is no edit link under my comments. There was one before you replied to my first error post, so it may have to do with after someone has replied specifically to my post it can no longer be edited.

Replying

FlameSkyeFox; Sunday, February 19, 2006 - 02:12

I think that we should just use the "flat" replies with the "quote" module. Although I think it looks better using the individual post replies, it is useful to be able to edit and delete your posts easily.

Polls

Anime Punk Joey; Monday, February 20, 2006 - 02:39

The bars used to represent the poll results are rather annoying. They are the same color as the background on the oldskool skin, and at first glance it looks like the empty white space in the gauge-type-thing is the actual statistic. At least, that's how it appears on it's page. The smaller version on the right-side menu looks fine.

As for the deleting of posts, it is a very convenient feature to have, plus it seems more proper a method of dealing with improper/unnecessary posts than editing them and writing "ignore" or "." or "oops." My vote goes for "flat" posts.

Another Problem

Anime Punk Joey; Tuesday, February 21, 2006 - 03:21

I don't know how many other people are experiencing this, but my age on my user page does not match my birthdate. I have my birthdate set to 01/26/89, yet my account labels me as 16 years old.

Writing Spaces

The content areas for writing blogs, articles, whatnot are not loading/showing up as boxes but as little spaces like so

so far i have been able to overcome this by typing what i have to say in word proccessing and then copying and pasting.... but, even then the content box does not expand and the writing overlaps all the fomatting and preview comment text

What browser are you using? Are you on a Mac or PC? Can you send me a screenshot?
