hhyloc Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 The new forum theme is awesome! I love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iap Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 (edited) The new forum looks great! But please, if you can, find a way to add "unread posts" link, this is different from "new content". Oh sorry, I just seen the new content screen, its good! And where is "mark forums as read"? Edited May 13, 2012 by iap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeru Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 The Pledgie and Paypal badges are missing. They will be added back in soon.(FWIW I think the Pledgie is not needed at the moment) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos_Ruler Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 It would be nice if the spoiler tag had a button (like quotes and code have buttons). Is this an option or a mod? The spoiler tag works, it just doesn't have a button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigman Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 很好,很希望你们能够将这个史诗气氛浓厚的游戏带到中国这片广大的市场里,希望能更多的支持中文。 Edit - k776: Translation:Very good, very much hope that you will be able to bring this epic atmospheregame in this vast market, and hope more support Chinese.

Aldandil Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) OK, I know I haven't been around in a while, but I had no idea this was happening until afterwards -- there was no warning about a plan to delete all avatars. Now my avatar is gone, and I didn't even have a profile picture. I was using an avatar which had been part of the standard forum set of avatars, except now I can't access any of those. Were they all deleted? Is it impossible to get my avatar back? Also, why am I a Community Drunk? Is that a standard thing related to post count?

feneur Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Also, why am I a Community Drunk? Is that a standard thing related to post count? That is indeed a standard thing related to post count, and has always been there, so no new thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldandil Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 (edited) How do I access the original forum avatar gallery? Please tell me you guys didn't just delete it!I can't imagine why anyone would delete it... It had avatars representing every faction planned for 0 A.D. and The Last Alliance, and some other images. It was very nice. Edited May 18, 2012 by Aldandil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current ones are pretty awful. I mean who wants to be labeled "drunk" or "addict" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice to have some more history-related ones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feneur Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Will you take care of it or should I? I'm too tired to do it now, but I should be able to do it tomorrow, so perhaps I should rather say: if you haven't done it tomorrow evening I'll take care of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTreePaladin Posted May 20, 2012 Report Share Posted May 20, 2012 Can we disable avatars? I couldn't find the setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldandil Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Since nobody seems to know anything about the avatar gallery, are the urls for topics and posts the same as before the change? Will I be able to put a forum url into the Wayback Machine and get pre-changeover archives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcxSanya Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Since nobody seems to know anything about the avatar gallery, <...>bstempi looks like most relevant person to ask, but in his profile stated that he did not visited forum since May 17; I sent him PM.<...> are the urls for topics and posts the same as before the change? Will I be able to put a forum url into the Wayback Machine and get pre-changeover archives?I'm not sure whether urls was changed, but you can try. I managed to find only few random forum pages on http://archive.org . What are you hope to find there? All those old avatars or just your one?Edit: IIRC you had have some yellow diamond-shaped TLA-related avatar, maybe this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldandil Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 (edited) fcxSanya, that is my avatar! Thank you very much. It appears that the Internet Archive doesn't save images, so I don't think that'll help in recovering the rest of the gallery. But thank you for that image... looks like typing other names into that url recovers at least 3 of the TLA images. Some that may have been in the gallery are at http://wildfiregames...lizations.html. I'm not finding the 0AD avatars... I think there were shields, such as the Spartan lambda shield. Edited May 21, 2012 by Aldandil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstempi Posted May 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hey there!Sorry for the slow response, I'm currently on vacation. Nothing should have been deleted. It's possible that it was overwritten or that I've misconfigured a URL somewhere. Either way, we made backups before doing our upgrade, so rest assured that nothing was lost. I'll hop on it next week when I get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feneur Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Now I think I know why the post ranks suddenly are noticed: the rank images (called pips/pip images) aren't displayed, so now the rank titles are noticed instead =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spahbod Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Found two problems. I can't sign out. It goes to an error page. Also in the main forum page there is a "Moderator CP" that is fully accessible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leper Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 I have the same problem as Spahbod. &module=global%A7ion=login&do=logout in the url should probably be &module=global&action=login&do=logout.Changing it to this logs you out.

feneur Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Found two problems. I can't sign out. It goes to an error page. Also in the main forum page there is a "Moderator CP" that is fully accessible!For you yeah I.e. it should most definitely not be available for non-team members. All in-team user groups should have some moderator privileges as we've added that for the task/user forums (i.e. all programmers have moderator permissions in all programmer user forums, might not be 100% accurate as we might have forgotten to add them, but since we're moving more and more away from using the forums to track tasks that isn't really needed anymore anyway), there might be some settings that makes all moderators global moderators - or one of us might have enabled that at one point for all I know, I don't remember. In either case I don't think it's an issue if someone who's on the team has mod privileges, if we allow people commit access to the SVN we sure should be able to trust them with mod privileges in the forums (Admin privileges is another thing though ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k776 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Logout used to work. Someone at some point edited the templates and it converted '&act' into '%A7' for all links.The same bug used to affect the mark as read link, but I fixed that one.
