    I download the image from what ever the source is and then upload it to boards.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,270 ✭✭✭con747


    Yeah, I used to be able to just copy an image from my google photo's on chromebook and paste it here but it seems to be gone like I posted above for me anyway.

    cannot access my inbox or the bell icon to the left of mail. Frustrating place once again



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,379 ✭✭✭corkie


    Had that problem before, advice was to rotate the phone to landscape and you will see all options. Assuming your referring to using it on a mobile. Make sure auto rotate is on!

    The Vanilla website gives the impression they have stopped developing the software. The release a few of months ago being the last.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,921 ✭✭✭✭Dtp1979


    the bell to the left of nail has stopped responding anytime I touch it. Screen regularly freezes and now I’ve a notification in mail and it won’t let me access it. Help please



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,270 ✭✭✭con747


    How can a poster edit a post that you replied to them in? I just noticed I replied to a post and it was edited after I posted it but the post before me which was posted at the same time only had the original unedited post.

    Are you on an iPhone? If you are, you can hold down your profile icon until a new window starts to open, then go down and select ‘Open in New Tab’.

    When you’re in that new tab you can select ‘Profile’ and go down to ‘Notifications’ from there.

    It’s a bit of a laboured way to see them but it’s the only “workaround” I’ve found.

    Umm, Vanilla causes a thread to tremble if you use the string 'post' more than 4 times in the same sentence.

    It looks like we can't report a post on a thread anymore.

    There's someone trying to sell drugs in the SuperValu thread but when I hit the three dots to report it, the word "flag" pops up and then disappears giving no chance to explain the reason or any details.

    Android.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,547 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Not a bug as such but you have been spammed of hacked by someone offering deals on cocaine and barbiturates



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,102 ✭✭✭✭thesandeman


    He's also doing it in the Craft Beer thread but it let me report him properly on that one 🤷‍♀️.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,547 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    he’s doing it on several different forums

    This thread is showing as having 2 new posts for me, but there's only one new one (I was the last poster before it, so I'm absolutely sure!)

    The jumping bouncing is getting worse, especially on the phone, any update please @Boards.ie: Mike



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,868 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    AeedAgr. That is supposed to be the word "agreed"

    II find the bouncing much worse also in recent days.

    Do The board’s staff read and respond here or is there a way to contact them. The site is becoming unusable once again.

    some threads now showing 1 new post but when you go to read it you'll notice there's several new posts

    Vanilla Forums on Higher Logic is far from cheap. I believe is costs ~25k a year for a basic implementation. Boards must be spending 10s of thousands on this mess. The joys of SaaS and losing control of your own business.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 285 ✭✭EletricMan


    The jumping, skipping up is getting worse. Really hard to use boards at the moment.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,309 ✭✭✭✭dulpit


    Whoever suggested that it might be tied to the number of replies in a thread is probably right too - the likes of the YLYL thread in AH opens fine because replies aren't allowed there. Other threads bounce for ages.

    Now also a weird render where there's a bit of extra space to the right of the page, it's not zoom or anything I've adjusted just that there's this available empty space to the right.

    That was me - a few times.

    @Boards.ie: Mike said he would pass the theory to Vanilla, and I'm sure he has done so.

    If Vanilla are aware of the bug, any competent developer should be able to diagnose the cause easily. The fix might take longer obviously.

    I still think we are on some much cheaper (or even free) Beta Minus release, and thus at the very bottom of the priority list for fixes.

    IMO Higher Logic sell Vanilla as a Customer Engagement platform, not a Discussion one.

    Is there even a single user here who would recommend Vanilla as a forum platform? Rhetorical question...

    Maybe we (users) should start a social media campaign slagging Vanilla in public. That should get a result.

    I'm not on any of these SM platforms, so regrettably it won't be me.

    Anyone else up for it?

    Minor graphical error I've not noticed before. Poll results seem to have a higher z-index than the sticky header:

    Can't tap any navigation unless you scroll off the results.

    This for me also .

    Back to as bad as before. Elastic band holding post you clicked on to as well .

    Only clears if you go to another page and then jumping starts again.

    Also the jumbled up / split words at the beginning of sentences pretty bad now .
