    Yup, driving me insane!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,391 ✭✭✭✭mikom


    Pain in the hole.
    Still popping up everytime.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    If I fill it out will it go away?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,553 ✭✭✭Dogwatch


    Please make it go away. I have done it but every time I change thread the bloody thing pops up again. It is now verging on SPAM. please please make it go away.

    No, it just keeps giving. I just started onothter thread about it


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine


    My Chrome pop-up blocker is keeping it away.

    If you're using Chrome, try going to Settings -> Content settings -> Pop ups and disabling pop-ups. Or put in boards as an exception and select block from the drop down menu.

    Also, can you set it to close the popup window when it's completed, rather than having another instance of boards.ie open?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,328 ✭✭✭conorh91


    My satisfaction has been decreasing each time it pops up and has been at zero for the last seven or eight pop-ups


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,534 ✭✭✭✭guil


    Its some pain in the arse.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 5,028 Mod ✭✭✭✭G_R


    It's not affecting me on touch, but tried to switch to full site so I could do some modding and I can't get past the first click! Really irritating!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    It's not affecting me on touch, but tried to switch to full site so I could do some modding and I can't get back the first click! Really irritating!

    Yeah I'm using the touch site on my laptop to get around it.

    Getting it here too. Is this legit I wonder? Doesn't seem like the sort of thing the Boards guys would do intentionally.

    Yes. Between this deeply irritating spam behaviour and the "new"sh1te navigation menu I wish I hadn't been so kindly with my feedback on the survey.

    I've had it pop up about 10 times at this stage!

    I started at '7' and the last survey got a zero.

    I am also suspicious of it's legitimacy.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 5,028 Mod ✭✭✭✭G_R


    It seems it's only happening on chrome - I can use the full site no bother on safari on my phone, but chrome keeps going to the survey at every click, in case that helps!

    Filled it in three times and each time i went onto a new page it came back. Solution - When it opens up, minimise it, and let it rot there.

    I'm sure they didn't intend for it to appear after every click - if imagine there was just an error somewhere along the way.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,526 ✭✭✭✭Darkglasses


    On IE it's blocked as a pop-up. Guess I should get a pop-up blocker for Chrome. Anyone got a recommendation?

    I use internet explorer (the sticky header feature doesn't work on chrome) and I'm getting it, but it's blocked as a pop up.

    That's weird. Wonder why it works on safari! Gremlins!

    See my post on the first page. Works for me.

    Doesn't work on Chrome if you have a touch screen (which Posy does). Getting the pop-up in Firefox too so it's not browser-specific. Happens every time I navigate to a new page.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 33,733 ✭✭✭✭Myrddin


    Chrome seems to be blocking it via it's in built pop up blocker for me anyway. I can see the regularity it's happening though

    Thanks mate, that fixed it :)

    I had Boards as one of my exceptions, removed it and voila.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,325 ✭✭✭✭Dozen Wicked Words


    Seems odd timing, when the rejig of the site isn't even finished and there are numerous issues, to roll out a customer satisfaction survey. Mad Ted.

    At least give the benefit of the doubt until we hear more...

    I can't believe there hasn't been a "stop moaning if it's a free website for you" post yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,534 ✭✭✭✭guil


    Using the full site on my phone with safari and I'm getting it, same with firefox on laptop but nothing on the touch site.

    That's weird - I can browse fine on Safari on my phone.

    Me too, was wondering why pop up blocker wasnt working.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine

    It probably has all pop-ups disabled as default. Chrome on my phone had pop-ups disabled so I can browse the full site fine. Tried enabling it and the pop ups appeared so I turned it off again.

    Not appearing at all for me on Firefox


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,673 ✭✭✭Stavro Mueller


    I use Firefox and I foolishly ticked the button at the top to unblock it :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    At least they reckon my answers were the best so far..

  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine

    Go back and block it again :p

    Trying to find the setting is giving me a headache already :D

    Go to Options. It's in the Content panel.

    Thank you - a virtual beer cominatcha :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,981 ✭✭✭KomradeBishop


    Sure Boards wouldn't roll out an untested UI change on a live website would they? Ah nvm...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 265 ✭✭When the Sun Hits


    "Awesome - thanks for filling out our survey. I think your answers were the best so far!"

    Is everyone getting this response? Please say "no", I really need this confidence boost.
