Kiwi Biker upgrade to vB4 Suite.

[Cloggy]

They say change is a good thing. And I don't mind change if it is for the better. But that change is for the better I am yet to be convinced.
I am not concerned about the new layout and things.
But what's up with the speed of the site. It's gone down to a crawl. Sometimes it won't load at all. Get a message "Server reset, connection timed-out. Server might be busy."
Aaarrgghhh!

I have white text on a white background, this is why I am typing in KTM Orange...
I am using Internet Explorer Browser.
It sucks really because as I type, I forget and then can't even see the words. Even when quoting, the type is not there, but the smilies are. I then have to highlight everything to see where to begin or what to delete etc. Okay, this is an edit. I tried Google chrome and yes, black background, white text. This is IE 8 and it is white, with white...Strange??

what browser are you using? I'm using google chrome and it's white text on a black background, and firefox seems to work the same too

Wow....That solves everything....You Da Man!

That button switches between the standard and WYSIWYG editor modes.

I hope the bug with the reputation box is fixed in the "." releases.

Type something into the reputation box and press enter. Instant error, you have to click the "Add Reputation" button instead.

Since the upgrade, I have been having a minor problem: a page will stop loading and a message pops up about an unresponsive script. I am using Firefox on a Mac. Anybody know why this is happening? It's not a big deal because I just click on the "Cancel" and the page seems to load normally, but it does slow things down.

to be fair, it's a new error in that I'm not trying to save a php file this time like I would occasionally get when clicking links on the old KB (both chrome and firefox)

nonetheless, clicked link, presented with download

(and new attachment thingy is "interesting")

You'll need to fined out what MIME content type was presented to the browser, and then change the default behaviour for that type to display rather than save it.

Or are you saying this is an intermittent one off issue?

intermittent - the old version would pop up .php files instead

so far that gz file is the only occurance with the new upgrade

Where's the link from?

can't remember, was clicking something in around a social group, probably to get back to the real forums

Loving the new site now everything is how it should be and running smoothly

This really needs to be on a bulletin board site but; ...; the photo view in a thread (like tits and arse) could deliver a much better user experience if while viewing one photo it started retrieving the next photo (aka, force it into the browser cache). Then as soon as you clicked next it would be ready to display, instantly.

Personally, I often find it is best to click next, next, next straight away until you get back to the first photo. Even though the other photos are not retrieved for display, they usually seemed to be downloaded and cached in the background, so they are available as soon as I click "next" to view.
