Thanks geo, you're right about this, and I should have it corrected within the day. It's actually a result of a bugfix in the update. I was right that most of the forums don't have active topics turned on, but it wasn't until this latest update that the forum started obeying the permissions regarding that.

In any case, don't worry, it'll be back soon. :)


Great, thanks for your behind-the-scenes work here.

Please verify it's working for you again now. It should be fully fixed.

You'll also notice there's a very simple Quick Reply at the bottom of topics now.

Hi DWill,
I've no idea what you could be seeing, but the first step would be to clear your browser cache. If you're still having problems, I'll need you to post a screenshot to show us what's going on. It'd also help if you could fill out the support template I posted in the bug forum.

Yep, that worked, back to normal. Phew. Thank you for your help.

Sometimes when I'm typing a reply and my mouse pointer strays outside of the reply box, the scroll bar jumps all the way to the top of the post. This is ever most frustrating and I hate my computer when it happens.

Post Re: Major Update Completed - Post Any Bugs Here
geo, I answered your PM about this a couple days ago. Did you have any luck with what I suggested?

Interbane, I haven't the foggiest idea why this would be happening to you. There's no AJAX being used that responds to where the mouse pointer is on the screen, without at least a click. If this is an ongoing thing, please fill out this form and I'll try to help you figure it out. It could be a misbehaving browser plugin or toolbar of some kind.

I've been having this problem as well, but only in the Quick Reply box. If I let it idle too long to read what I've written, it automatically scrolls up for some reason. No idea why, and I just scroll back down and deal with it, but it is pretty annoying.

My ISP and type of connection: High Speed Cable

Link to the problem page: any page using Quick Reply

My Operating System: Windows Vista

My Browser(s): Internet Explorer 7

My Screen Resolution: 1280x800

The Firewall and Antivirus I use: McAfee Virus Scan

My general level of computer knowledge: medium...I can do anything that doesn't involve direct code or running programs outside of the operating system

When did you notice the problem? a few days after Quick Reply became an option, when I started to use it for posts that were longer than a sentence or two.

********************************************************
The problem I'm having is...when using Quick Reply, after writing several paragraphs, the box scrolls itself up to the top of the reply, and I have to scroll back down to find my place again. Sometimes this happens when I have lapsed in writing to read what I wrote, and sometimes it happens mid-typing. This problem only happens in Quick Reply, not in the full editor.

I hope this helps...

Whenever you have a problem let David know the answers to the questions he has asked. He wants to solve these problems for you, but his hands are tied if he doesn't know what browser you're using, operation system, etc... ;)
