Fixed Problem with several site functions (login, alerts, likes, etc)

[Mikej]

I died.

Well, it's gonna be painful if it was out, but.....I think I'd live. Always got a bunch of brass, primers, powder and projectiles to play with.

Yeah, and it's getting really laggy, almost thought it was my old distro...
(also goes to show how good it is)

I am still getting occasional hiccups, mostly images opening in new tabs, not in the viewer. A page refresh seems to sort the issue out, so it is much more livable than the old problem that was not always corrected even with a full browser restart. But whatever bug is the root cause of this is still lurking in there somewhere, even if you have beaten it up enough that is does not want to come out to play all the time now. If you need me to pull stuff when the issue pops up just let me know what it is and I will grab it. If you need me to install some debug tools I would be happy to do that as well.

It's a glitch in The Matrix.

Glitch in the Matrix or a ghost in the machine?

I appreciate the update. You're absolutely right, this issue is not resolved yet. I've got a couple things I'm looking into, but any additional info is appreciated (please open a ticket)

An old linux distro is a great way to keep an old computer running but if your lagging its time to step up. I don't think Ubuntu is even supporting 16.04 anymore?

Appears to be no.

 

[Joe Link]

I'm happy to report I think we finally got this thing figured out

If anyone is still experiencing these issues, please let me know

Nope, time to upgrade for sure!

I'm just too darned lazy, oh, and I forgot how to do it

 

[gmerkt]

Oh. I guess it wasn't just my imagination.

I have not been able to replicate since my last comment, hence why I have not opened a new issue on it. Hopefully you got it for good this time, but if I can replicate again I will grab whatever details I have at hand and open it up again.

Not quite finished yet, Joe!

Quote function is not working to different threads. I quoted a member (in a DM thread) and went to the quote in the MQTOOC thread, and the "Insert Quote" toggle does NOT appear. In short, no way to quote from thread to thread. This is going to become problematic, as I have a very deviant mind when it comes to quoting folks...

Bubblegum!

I'll look into it ASAP.

 

[Joe Link]

Only 66 yoa. That's not very old these days...

Testing.

 

[Joe Link]

Hmm, it seems to be working on my end @sobo. Which device type, OS, and browser?

 

[NeoBlackdog]

I have a very deviant mind

Could have stopped with that.

 

[CountryGent]

Hmm, it seems to be working on my end @sobo.

Out of curiosity tried it as well and it worked. (Win10/Chrome)

Laptop, Windows 10 Home, latest Chrome

The Insert Quote toggle does show up in the same thread from whence the quote is taken. However, I cannot quote from one thread and post to another thread.
This lack of functionality essentially makes the MQTOOC thread useless to me for providing scintillating entertainment for our other members...

Does it matter that I tried to quote from a DM thread to the MQTOOC thread? Is there some glitch (or perhaps an intentional prohibition) in the site programming that prevents quoting from a DM to the public side of the board?
