As many of you know the site has been having technical difficulties.
The major issues have been corrected. Now it's time for the minor ones.
If you see anything out of place or not working correctly please add it to this thread so we can keep track of the issues and not repeat work

thanks!

Hello. Great thanks for all your fixing work. That's a really great thing you do.

I have a minor issue. To be clear, it's a sideway scrollbar is always there. Here's a screenshot of that thing. I use Google Chrome.

Oh, file attach doesn't work.

Here's the link then

Um, clicking on edit post button then submitting the edited post resulted in posting a new post instead of updating the post

One more thing. Editing the post of mine in this thread (the one that contains "del and an attached thumbnail") so that there's no more "thumbnail tag" in the post resulted in the thumbnail is still present somehow

I had the same problem with editing a post, then having a repeat post created (Syria thread, General Discussion). I'll made sure Ben knows!

@iCake the scroll bar issue is part of the original site design, if you hold your ctrl key and roll your mouse wheel towards you it will make the content slightly smaller in your browser and make the scroll bar go away.

I'm not having the edit post issue on my end, can we have another person try editing a post and see if it has the same result as iCake?

When I opened the forum from my android tablet I got a pop-up message offering to install "our new forum app". I have never got such an offer before the forum was hacked, so, naturally, I wonder if there is a real forum app for android or it can be a malware seeded by the hackers. (After declining to install the app I have not get this message any more).

Can you try it again, the mobile site does not get stuck in an adf.ly loop anymore. If you get the pop-up again can you do a screen capture and send it to me?

thanks!

I'm not seeing the thumbnail anymore, is it still on your screen?

Well, I was seeing it untill the post had been deleted by moderator I suppose

Well, to be perfectly clear, this issue is kind of "elusive" and happened to me at least a couple of times even before the major site crash. This just sometimes happens... Why? I don't know because this happens too rarely to figure out the scenario for that to happen 100%.

I cleared history, cookies and cache of my browser (Opera for Android) and opened a forum page. The page was opened in mobile site version. No any messages appeared. Then I scrolled the page down and pressed "Full Site" button and the message appeared on the screen. The same message appears if I use Chrome browser.

I'm seeing the same, working on it

I happened to log on when the site seemed to be hacked by some ex Yugoslavians or something, make a political statement. Then I got redirected to some ad site.
