1. This is to prevent Admins from receiving loads of PM's about the same issues.

2. This is not for site suggestions, only errors or problems you might have.

3. If you get any errors or experience other problems, check if someone else might not have already posted it here and then confirm that you have the same issue or post the problem.

4. Please note that a lot of issues may be of the constant upgrades being done. As a result, a lot of smaller issues will get fixed on their own during the upgrades. For now, please post only more serious issues.

I'll go first...

I'm using Firefox version 3.6.6 and every now and then I the error below. I know a few other members also mentioned it before. This could be a result of new changes being uploaded to the server though :dunno:

Service Temporarily Unavailable

The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

EDIT on 21 June 2011:
Regarding the black screen problem users have on older browsers:

When some the scripts were first used it didn't work properly in the latest versions of some browsers (Specifically IE9). The script was then updated so it would work in the latest browser versions. Unfortunately, updating it made it not work in IE7. The best would be for users to update their internet explorer to IE8/9 or start using something like FireFox or Google Chrome.

Download links:
FireFox: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/new/
(FireFox will import any stored info from Internet Explorer)

Google Chrome: http://www.google.com/chrome/

IE9: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/products/ie/home
(I haven't personally downloaded IE9 as I only use FireFox. Please let me know if there is any issues downloading it and I'll find a different link.)

I have received the same above error a few minutes ago.

I got it just before I posted this and then again right after I posted this. It's definitely a problem on the server, but like I said it could be a result of updates being uploaded when old .php files get replaced with new ones.

I noticed in the bar at the top a forum that shows which members are currently browsing a forum there is no space between the named users and the invisible users.

I know Twins said the links still need to fixed. Must be on the to do list still.

There are still other updates being done to the forum. So there is a good chance that some these updates will fix any existing issues. Any issues not related to the updates will also get looked at and fixed.

The forum doesnt load properly on my browser. I am using Windows XP with Internet Explorer version 7.

Whenever i load a page on the forum i get the "Done, but with errors on page" message.

when I double click on the icon, I get

Line: 166

Char: 3

Error: Object doesnt support this property or method

Code: 0

Url: Whatever the URL is of the page i'm trying to get to.


I did not have this issue with the old forum. Im not sure if this is an issue on my side or not.

That would most likely be from Internet Explorer 7 being a bit to old to support some of the new features of the forum. I get complaints from clients who are still on Internet Explorer version 6 that our web pages don't display properly, but it's actually just the browser that's to old.

I need to wait about 5min before mine works again. It could be because of files being replaced when updated versions are being uploaded :dunno:
So maybe just a effect of all the updates.
