Now my problem is that I have switched from

IE7 to Firefox.  When hitting the "# new" under comments in the recent posts section, under IE7 it would take me directly to the 1st new comment (which is what I want); under Firefox, it takes me to the last (or most recent) new comment, which I do not want.

Recent Posts

I like clicking on the "Recent posts" link on the left sidebar to see what's new on MGo.  But recently it will tell me that a new reply is in an old, old post, like stuff from July.  Then I'll click on it and there is no new reply.  What's up with that?

No question, Jim.

Chris, I also do the "recent post" thing and get that too

A total guess, but I think it may be a result of someone reviewing and posting anonymously (remember Brian set it up to have their ID as "anonymous coward" but it never worked and doesn't show up). The comment control program still counts these comments (thus show up as new) in the total number of comments, but they don't appear.

Hopefully, Brian will get this fixed once the season is over and he isn't working 20 hrs a day

Every now and then, each paragraph of text appears as a single line running way, way off the right edge of the screen.

won't stay logged in

Does Drupal not use cookies?  Because I have to re-login everytime I'm about to post, and this is just when I realize that anonymouse comments don't get saved.

 

(using FF3)

Goodbye!   Hellooo Heisman!

I loaded one, but want to change it and it won't let me. When I upload a different one, it just shows my original. I've tried deleting, then loading, but to no avail.

two edit boxes
when you preview a diary post there are two edit boxes, but only one of them seems to save changes.

Diary's
I noticed that my diary's always get squished over to the left side. One commenter said this happens when you copy and paste into the Diary. I always do a spell check on Word then paste over to the Diary. I guess that's why. Another commenter said this can be fixed by copying from "Notepad"....and that did work. Is there a reason this happens that can be fixed?

IE6 still has issues
content is still pushed down the page on most pages and still can't see the tabs at the top of the page.
Posted on: July 22nd, 2008 at 6:27 PM #15
Agreed
But content is only being pushed down on the front page for me. Yay poopy IT department for giving me such new technology in order to googler the series of tubes that compose the internets!

Sorry if I missed it... Is there a sidebar/ pull-down menu for tags?

Firefox
The search bar overlaps with the menus. and the navigation buttons on the bottom of the 'recent posts' page are text wrapping. looks strange.

IE6
Content still pushed to the bottom for me... one time I opened the site and it wasn't, but other than that, its been pushed down. Of course, I'll not have to use IE6 ever again after the month of July, so it may not be worth your time.  ed - sorry, was having trouble accessing other pages of reported issues, so didn't see that this was already in.

Ok, maybe I'm just missing it somewhere, but where can I find the link to put this site into my RSS Feeds?

Labels/Headings
I'm not seeing any of the labels/headings above any blue box on the page (such as Diaries, MGoBoard, MGoElsewhere, Beveled Guilt, M On the Net, etc). They show up if I highlight them, which is like odd. Running IE7.

why are message board replies
why are message board replies spaced away from the original post, with the settings option in between?  probably another reason that diaries and mgoboard posts are confusing.

Ad problem seconded
I am also having the problem with yardbarker ads on a white screen taking over the browser window after the MGoBlog page displays briefly. On Firefox on Mac OSX Leopard. Also, more of a suggestion, but I wonder if there would not be a way to prevent the Popular and Hot tabs from becoming "All Time Most Read" and "All Time Most Commented" sections, respectively. Perhaps by having posts disappear off the "Hot" list after not being commented on for X amount of days, or in the case of the "Popular" tab, after not being viewed for X amount of days? I know it sounds nitpicky, but the features seem to already have lost their utility. Keep up the good work.

the popular and hot tabs will only show posts in the last week; check out the number of pages on each tab for confirmation older posts are getting dropped. And the ad thing should be fixed.

Yep.
Same here with me.  Firefox 3 on Leopard (10.5.4) leaves the page to display ads unless you hit “stop” immediately on page load.  Safari 3.1.2 doesn’t have this problem but is perpetually waiting for the last three page elements.  Opera 9.51 loads the site fine (and in fact, doesn’t show any ads at all!).

Site is broken
The ad serving is broken - the page will load, and then when it comes time for the ads to be loaded, the page goes white and it's only ads.  If you stop the page loading immediately after you see mgoblog content, you can still read the site. I'm using XP with firefox 3

Additional HTML tags
Could we add the blockqoute tag?  I think it would make sense considering the amount of copy and pasting that happens.  The block looks a bit cleaner when the quote goes over a couple lines.
