Known Issues, Upcoming Fixes & Features

[mobius017]

@Rayduxz (Putting the @ in here, since a new post automatically gets merged with the old one. Good for avoiding double-posts, but not sure if it would show up as a new addition to the thread that way.): Kinda weird...I've noticed a few times that my name still appears at the bottom of pages, even after I've logged off. When I tested it out, I even saw it appear after clearing my browser history/cookies/cache/etc., and even in other browsers than the one I'd logged in with. I had "stay logged in" unchecked, too. It seems like it will stick around for awhile, and then disappear. I'm guessing it must be putting it there based on...my IP address? Which it caches for awhile and then resumes ignoring?

Not really a problem on a personal device, but on a public one it would be a bit concerning.

Edit: Just deleted my prior post this was getting merged with, as it wasn't particularly important anyway. Replacing it with this one, which actually has a new bug in it :)

Edit 2: Interesting. If I log out and visit a page I haven't been to in a new browser, I don't show up there. But if I go to a page I had visited recently in that new browser (like this thread), I still show up. So maybe it's the page itself that's getting cached, and an old version is getting served where it looks like I'm still there?

Edit 3: As a separate issue, every once in awhile, I get a yellow box popping up on the bottom of the screen that says, "The active user has changed. Reload the page for the latest version." That's usually followed a short while later by a blue/lavender-ish box on the top of the screen that says there's been a security error of some kind. I just saw the yellow one, but I haven't seen the blue one yet.

Is the auto-merge issue still being looked into? I'm trying to post a new message onto a thread but it keeps auto-merging with my last one.

We've just changed the timer on the auto-merger from indefinite to 2 hours. It may take a moment for it to take effect, but you should be able to post in that thread now.

Just curious on this, but is there a reason when you are a guest you can't see signatures? : 0
To me it's weird since I know some people have signature but when I am a guest I don't see them so I get confused.

See more

Plus I like looking at the signatures...so I'm weird on that, I guess...

(^_^;)>

 

[GreenFantasy64]

To reduce the "noise" it may cause for people searching for specific things in search engines, it may give them fake search results based on someone's signature.

Oh really? : O

Not that it's terribly important, but something's off about the styling for Amazon media elements. You can see an example in the spoiler in my post here: Vocaloid in 4 Words!. It looks like the price and maybe a few other things are floating over the main body of the...whatever you want to call the box with the product information.

Actually, I don't think I specifically inserted it as an Amazon media element. It was just a link with the Amazon URL in both the text and link fields. It must have gotten formatted automatically.

I'm pretty sure I saw the same people in Today's Birthdays last night (before 12 am) as I do today. Not that I have any complaints about celebrating the occasion, of course. (Happy Birthday to NoirSuede, Pheasant, and riipah!)

 

[mobius017]

I'm pretty sure I did? Sorry, suddenly I'm fuzzy on if I saw it while I was logged in or if I caught a flash of it before I logged in/after I logged out. I do remember thinking that I'd noticed them reappearing after I logged out, but I wasn't sure if that was because the avatars of people I follow had disappeared (since I wasn't logged in anymore).

Actually, I'm sure I saw them while logged out, but not while I was logged in. And now that you mention it, I saw the birthdays today, and people I follow were clearly visible at the same time. UTC is Greenwich, so birthdays would show up earlier in UTC than they do for me. And I've apparently since caught up, so I see them whether logged in/out now.

Apologies, mea culpa!

3 New adjustments/fixes implemented:

Polls can now have up to 25 options instead of 10.

The Favorite Song for Every Vocaloid You Listen to thread no longer has insane lag when loading it.

The alert system for a large number of subsections (in particular the Songs & PVs section) have now been fixed. If you were following any of them, I would suggest unfollowing/refollowing so you can be properly alerted to new threads/posts.

The plugin for our theme was updated just a moment ago. It is causing visual errors and hard to read text. We are currently working on fixing it.

Update from another thread:

Like @GreenFantasy64 just said, it's a known issue. We've been trying to fix it for a little while now but have been unable to find the proper settings for it. We made a temporary fix by changing the entire node text to black. We'll try again tomorrow to see if we can fix it properly.

In mobile view, I can't find the Edit button. On my phone I gotta force desktop view to edit my posts.

Also, it's kinda hard adding spoiler tags after the fact? Like I have a picture I want as a spoiler, it's kinda counter intuitive I think.

So that's why I couldn't edit my post and was forced to write another one that got merged.
I wanted to show a screenshot of it but it seems that the "Attach Files" button doesn't recognize any images on my phone.

While we look for another solution, changing your screen orientation should allow the edit button to appear.

Could I get some clarification on what you're asking about please? You should be able to use the insert option on the text editor for spoilers. Either that or enter the code manually. If either is not functioning properly, please let us know.

I tested this with two different phones. The newer phone was able to handle it just fine, however the older phone was unable to attach it due to RAM issues. Do you get any sort of pop-up when it fails to attach? As well, it could be an issue with the type of image you're trying to upload, what's the file type for the image?

Mine is a 2-years-old Xperia.
It's not like I could not push it, it just opens the usual file managing app but the images are a little covered in white and I can't select them. The files are JPG, PNG and GIF.

My last status was posted twice, so I will delete one. Just wanted to let you know that the double-post bug from other sites occurs on here too.

It's solved. Previously, I had used the "Attach Files" button instead of dropping an image.

That's good to hear. We've still forwarded it on to be looked at, but glad to hear it's working for you.

I have updated the first post with some known issues. I have also moved all the info from the Features Still to Come Thread over to here, as there was a lot of overlap between the two threads.

Some important notes of interest:

Themes

We will be unveiling our plans for future themes this month June, as well as starting our first theme contest! Check back soon if you're interested.

Polls

Currently users are unable to edit polls after they have been closed. This is intentional. However, this raises issues with any fanclub creators who wish to run regular polls. We are looking into a way to let users edit polls after they are closed. Until then, please contact a mod with the info you'd like your poll changed to, and we will update it for you.

Will VNN have their own song contests in the future? O.O (By the way, Hi @Robyn Is A Ninja LONG TIME NO SEE!)

Anyway, I'm finding this site a little hard to navigate. T^T Must be a new layout...

But yea, some of the text is a little hard to read because of the artwork in the way...

I don't think this is a big enough issue to warrant its own thread -- whenever I click on a thread that I've already been on before, it automatically directs me to the newest/latest post.

Would it be possible to redirect users to the first post they haven't yet read in that thread instead? I feel like I end up missing a bunch of posts because I assume the post it sends me to is the only one made in the time I last visited the thread, since that's how VO worked orz. I know there's a notifier in the corner of each post saying "New," but I didn't even notice that until a few minutes ago -- it'd be nice if it just sent me to the first post I haven't yet seen to begin with.

(Though it could definitely just be an issue on my end? Not sure if this is a site-wide thing ;;)
