Amigans.net 2022 updates

@nbache

Skimmed through the settings and I couldn't find a specific setting for that.

Edit: Oh, you meant you couldn't find it ...

@walkero

site updates working great on my Amiga 4000 running the latest IBrowse 2.5.5

@nbache

Sorry I made a typo that totally changed what I was trying to say. I've corrected it.

@All
Something goes wrong sometimes with the dates of the news on the main page. For example now, when i logged in, all fine. But when i log out and refresh the main page, the news items are from the year 2006. I noticed it few days ago as well, but was able to deal with refreshing the page, but now even refreshing didn't help and only logging in helped.

@kas1e
I just disabled the caching of the news module. Can you please check if you can reproduce it?

@walkero

I saw this same thing once a few days ago, when visiting as a guest (not logged in)- news items from 2006 or 2007, and if I scrolled down to the bottom of the home page the page selection buttons had me on some page number in the hundreds, instead of page 1.

I don't remember what I did to fix it- I think I just clicked on 'Home', but I may be remembering wrong. I imagine I could have clicked on the page 1 button, too.

I haven't seen the problem since, so it's not readily reproducible.

@george, orgin

That is probably due to some security reasons, but still worth to ask: is it possible to make it in code blocks, slashes to works too? Like \n to, \\, etc, so code pasted and copied from "code" blocks, can be used as it, without missing slashes.

I will have a look at that.

@walkero

I just tried to quote a mail and the whole quote was cut short on the first " it found.

Take this post from Roman
https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=129325

and try to quote it.

I'll always end up with

Now once we deal with that

@walkero

and another one

Take any thread, like this one again:
https://www.amigans.net/modules/newbb/ ... hp?topic_id=6866&start=80

1 - Scroll down to the bottom where the "Quick" reply input field is.
2 - Underneath are two buttons "Reply" and "New Topic"
3 - Click on "Reply"

It will open the reply window but with @LyleHaze as person to reply to...why?
Lyle is nowhere to be found, he might have posted in the whole thread, but i don't want to address him right now.

Probably better to drop the whole @ when clicking on this button

edit:
That doesn't mean that i don't want to EVER address Lyle...he's a great guy, so...

@Raziel
You are right. I could reproduce it. The reason it replies to Lyle is because that button sets a reply to the whole thread, where the first post was from Lyle. So, in general, it works as it should.

Now, do we want it? That's an other discussion. Probably not. Let me think about it and I will see what I can do.

Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

@walkero

Awesome, thank you.

And...about the cut off quote?

Sure... Will look on that as well...

I just did some updates:

changelog

- Fixed the quotation of texts with double-quotes. Now the full text is quoted in reply.
- Fixed the tagged username when someone replies to a thread. Now the thread creator is not tagged by default

More to come.

Thanks Raziel for the report of these issues

@george

Plz don't forget missing slash in code blocks:



with this missing \ in all the places its hard to copy+paste text from amigans threads

@kas1e
That's what I am working right now... Hope to have it ready in a few minutes, if possible.

I just fixed the missing back slash in code blocks.

@kas1e
I believe it works fine now.

Some extra updates:
- I fixed the automatic scroll to the specific forum post when their URLs are used
- Fixed the white space in the left column in Netsurf
