Black Six Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 Earlier today BZPower updated to a more recent version of the Invision forum software.This should have fixed several issues, including the issues some have been having with personal photos/avatars. Unfortunately it also removed a couple of our custom add-ons, such as Proto Energy and spinnies. We will endeavor to add them back this evening.Please use this topic to point out:[*]Any issues you notice with the upgrade [*]Any problems you've seen that are now solved [*]Anything else you'd like to point out that may need to be addressed Quote Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BioGio Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) I've been having a little bit more difficulty with adding links (other than by copy-pasting into the post), as the editor froze (or, more accurately, the portion of the screen displaying BZPower went dark and did precisely nothing after that) when I pressed the "Insert Link" button, but that could just be my computer. I'll put up screenshots in a moment.~ BioGioEDIT: Specificity. Edited November 2, 2011 by BioGio Quote dig "You're a scientist?

Erebus Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I am using Chrome and I do not have the above issues. Adding links and images through the rich text editor did "freeze" my screen, but after going back to the page, everything seems fine now.

Ghosthands Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 I've found that BZP pages now load a lot more slowly than before, but that may just be a server issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) BZP seems to be loading a lot slower.EDIT: Now it seems to be cooperating a little more. Still moments of server obesity, though.

Quote On the day the wall came down / They threw the locks onto the ground And with glasses high / We raised a cry / For freedom had arrived On the day the wall came down / The ship of fools had finally run aground Promises lit up the night / Like paper doves in flight I dreamed you had left my side / No warmth, not even pride remained And even though you needed me / It was clear that I could not do a thing for you Now life devalues day by day / As friends and neighbors turn away And there's a change that even with regret / Cannot be undone Now frontiers shift like desert sands / While nations wash their bloodied hands Of loyalty, of history / In shades of grey I woke to the sound of drums / The music played, the morning sun streamed in I turned and I looked at you / And all but the bitter residues slipped away slipped away...

Black Six Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 Proto bar and spinnies are back.We'll look into the other issues you're reporting.For those curious, the upgrade was suggested by Invision to fix some of the issues we've been seeing. Unfortunately it does not look at though it's fixed the content block or staying logged in. We will continue to research these.

Usually it's only duplicated once, but in this screenshot I have, it shows 3 of the same notification:Has anybody else experienced this or a similar error?
