Quoting text and Editing comments in forum posts

Ning To Jamroom

Michael -

Maybe, but it has shown up in the comments of more than one member and it's the same character. But I will pay more attention going forward to when it happens to see if I can find a pattern.

Any idea on why I am not being returned the page the comment I am editing is on?

Yeah. I edited one of my comments. It was a latency thing. I did the cache reset but it wasn't until I also cleared the browser cache that it started working.

Thanks for checking in on this.

I tried to get debug to work but the output gets displayed inline in the page, not in a pop-up window. I think I was working with Michael on this.

Yeah, I guessed that $item.forum_xxx would not be available in the Forums module. I was guessing it was $item.discuss_description. I went ahead with that thought and got it to work. If I was more ambitious I would add the member photo but this can be a photo-heavy page so I did not want to make it heavier.

The first time I added a {debug} I wasn't thinking and did it inside a {foreach}. Ouch. Painful.

Quoting text and Editing comments in forum posts

Ning To Jamroom

When I Quote a comment in my site forum discussions, I am getting semi-random Â's inserted in the text. They are not visible in the original text, but they appear when quoting. By semi-random, they appear to be inserted at the end of sentences but not consistently. They have to be edited out or they will appear in my response when I save my comment.

On a related but separate note, when I edit a comment I am returned to page 1 of the discussion, even if I am editing a comment on page 2 of the discussion. This is consistent behavior. What I would expect is to be returned to the page I was editing, preferably with the comment window visible.

Could you do me a favor and use the Solver markers? Like "Completed" or "Solved?" this would help the rest of us know the status of your quests for answers.

Thanks in advance,

blogs lost all formatting

@SE -

I notice that there is an inconsistency in formatting in my blogs and posts as well. Not sure exactly why or where. Might be a Ning export thing that the parser is having a problem with.

Missing Forum Discussions in Search Results

Brian -

Probably not started that many forum topics - mostly a responder.

Okay then, if I want this to be POSTS not TOPICS I think I understand how to change that.

Missing Forum Discussions in Search Results

Ning To Jamroom

This member, Brad, has over 440 posts and comments in the Discussion Forum - but only the first result is displayed (despite pagination now set to 10). And there is no "Browse These Results (###)" shown.

Changing search pagination

Design and Skin Customization

I don't know if this is related, but now the first result in Forum Topics is missing its title - here and on the next page.

I ran an integrity check on the db - repair tables - and that did not fix the problem. I did not accidentally delete the title (Bug Reports).

Changing search pagination

Added the page break into the search form and reset the template caches (not running in developer mode).

Did not change the number of results displayed.

However, adding discuss_description to search increased the number of results from 11 to 28 so changing the pagination is more important than ever.

This was a latency issue somewhere (might have been local cache on " foil " as search term). Searching for other text gets 10 as the pagination length.
