This is a catch-all thread for the recent forum software update. If you've seen a bug or change that popped up after 26/04/18 then consider posting it here if you've got nowhere else to put it.

 

Well this is new. Experimenting with profile banners?

That is a lot of emojis. We could have entire conversations with the amount of options there.

FFS.  What is wrong with just emoticons? Although a sarcasm, snowflake, and man-up one would help.

 

Animals & nature, and food & drink need to go.

Connection type shouldn't matter as it's preloaded.

 

Working fine on my end but yeh. I cannot recall if the old one was animated in the same way. This is the black side menu that slides in, right?

 

When I click the icon a menu pops up with the word 'loading'. It either locks up my browser for a few seconds or is extremely slow. Same goes for closing. 

 

Choosing an emoji also takes a while to load in, or just freezes completely.

Frankly that could be down to the whole server running sluggish right now. It's rebuilding the search index (which usually takes a day or so). I was noticing some lag when I was replying to this thread. Mind checking back tomorrow and seeing if it persists? Sorry :S

A lot of this stuff is to do with new stuff from the newest update. I know it's confusing so in the future I'll open a thread for every major update. For now I'll split and merge some posts in/out of this thread to categorise them better. Will do this a bit later today.

 

Just to clarify: Similes/emojis are a part of the newest update from yesterday morning. As is the strange tiled backgrounds.

 

Unfortunately I had no choice but to update as instructed - it was a prerequisite to getting someone to look into the issue we've been having of a corrupted 'datastore' - like the theme etc. that seems to be happening every 7-10 days.

Now I'm on PC is see what Ben is on about. Black and white emojis for me too. Strangely enough it doesn't happen on mobile.

Don’t know if it’s just me. But if you type a post, go to edit it, add a quote, it deletes the text from the edit box, but it’s still there when you post the updated thread? Anyone else anything similar?

 

Also, top right of this picture. The original signs have disappeared.

Is this a new occurrence? I.e. after the downtime on Thursday morning?

 

The icons at the top right look like a caching issue on your end. Check if your browser has a 'clear cache' or 'website data' option. It will likely just fix itself in a few days otherwise as most phones will only cache icons and glyphs like that for a few days.
