I've disabled the text editor extension. It was causing users trouble and it was not allowing mentions to work anymore.

No problem. Extensions take all of 5 minutes to add, so hot alot of work honestly.

Hey man, don't sell yourself short. Y'all still have a big responsibility to keep all this up and running, along with support. Kudos!

Will the country flags and tagging functionality make a return in the future? Or do you have something similar planned by chance?

No fear I made an overflow folder and my settings dont release messages when the first folder is full.

But ever since this update was put in this morning I have messages that cant be released and whenever I try to move messages into a folder I get a "Invalid Form Submitted"  which I have no idea how to solve considering Im checking boxes to be moved into a folder.
Oh well Ill just delete some fluff messages.
Except even trying to DELETE messages leads to a "Invalid Form Submitted, please change form and try again etcetcetc"
Well okay, the oldest message isn't an important one.  Ill just press release messages that are on hold.

That does nothing it wants me to clear space.

So basically this upgrade (is there a way to go back to green and black this is an eyesore right now) means I can not access my PMs at all.  Which is rather annoying.  Though I can make a new account that seems like a pointless maneuver when everything was working until we suddenly got this weird update.  Anyone know how to fix this issue?  Maybe someone explained it and I just missed it


 
I also have the same message when trying to delete messages

 
This is actually a problem in the update.   I can't fix this particular issue until phpBB devs release a hotfix.  I will keep an eye out on the forums, but until then, if you need to delete a message, you will have to manually "view" each message and click the "delete" button on each.

For more info on current bugs/issues, visit https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=661&t=2536701
I am really sorry to be a pain, but is there any update on this. I seem to be spending half my time on here deleting messages at the moment. I know you are very busy and hate to ask.

"Invalid form submission. Please try again."

I basically have to log in twice since it fails the first time. Not that this is a huge issue, but is there a fix?

Is there some way for me to remove the huge banner announcing the upgrade?
Scrolling past it gets rather tiresome,

On smartphone, I found clicking on it once, showed an X in the corner, I clicked that and it seems to have stayed gone.

Whatever happened to those bondage emoticons, like the one with the ball gag and the one that was tied up in rope? Where can I find those emoticins?

Yes, I was wondering about them.

Do we have someone with the talent to recreate them?

For some reason I'm unable to shift PMs into a separate folder anymore. Everytime I do that it comes "form invalid try submitting again" what's happening here ?

Have a PM that is obviously spam, all in Russian I think.
Trying to delete it without opening. Mark the message and then scroll to bottom, change the dropdown to Delete Marked. Get error "Form submission is invalid".

so for the update is running very well, I dare say. I esp. appreciate the "time to read" feature!

Thanks a lot. Well done! 8-)

Same here. Everything running smoothly on my end.

I just hope the "time to read" feature doesn't put larger tales at a disadvantage.
I have the impression that it might prove to be an added deterrent to the many readers that fear dipping their toes into longer sagas.


In any case, thanks for the update!

Tend to agree with [mention]bondagefreak[/mention] about the deterrent aspect of the 'time to read' indication.
However, I also think it better encourages the readership if we writers don't ramble on too much over any particular episode.

Looks great Johnsnow!

Two questions about the "time to read" function: it added ">>" behind the number of replies. This also happens for the "your posts" and "active topics" pages (and a few others) but the time to read is not displayed there.

Would it also be possible to turn it off for certain subforums? It does not really make semse outside the story sections of the site.

Noticed that when I log in on my phone, it sometimes log me out after just few minutes.

[mention]David Han[/mention] see if this works for you, delete your browsing history, cookies, and cache, but please note(this will delete your saved preferences on other sites as well). And then don’t forget to hit the remember me button before you log back in. This is the first we are hearing about this issue recently, so unfortunately, we don’t have enough information to better tell if the problem would be on our side or your side.

[mention]chadmc90[/mention] is there any possibility of letting a post's datestamp and timestamp be visible next to it in the thread besides just "2 months ago" but actually say "May 9, 2023 1:17PM"?

I tend to agree but [mention]chadmc90[/mention] decided for good reasons of his own to adopt the current format that he thought would be more popular.
