I used the QUOTE option and it didn’t work Here’s my response,

Geez….can it get anymore tedious? I don’t have time to experiment. How the heck do you copy and paste a photo? Anyway, thanks for the response. I already mentioned this in the bug thread. I’m trying to post this and it wants me to upload a photo.

to copy and paste: Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V, just like you'd do in an email or MS Word.

I just tried to do a quick test. Images have a 5 MB limit of being attached.

So I couldn't add a high-rez image. I'd recommend using IMGUR for image posting. It's what I've done on my dynasty threads for the last 10 years.

It definitely seems to downrez photos. Here's the source for the photo above: https://i.redd.it/v9vkgre3q77z.jpg

Great catch!

Is this the case for everyone? I’ll add it to the list.

l'll be looking into this one today. The main engineer handles the stuff way over my head BTW. I do what I can, when I can.

Steve, any idea when all threads will have posts up to current day?

1 to 2 weeks is what I've been told.

Logging in is still a problem. I've cleared everything, I've done different browsers, I've deleted the memory of the site from my browsing history.


Super frustrating. This is only the second time it has let me post something since the switch. Phone browser also still looks like a jumbled mess, and is very hard to navigate through.

Which browsers have you tried? Are you still getting logged out since you posted this? Please provide browser, version, etc. so we can troubleshoot. We know it's annoying and it's not affecting everyone, so we need feedback on it. Thank you.

Still having a tremendous amount of trouble staying logged in. Cleared cookies / cleared local storage.

Appears to have kept me logged in on Google Chrome this time! Appears that issue has been resolved. Annoying, but if I press web version and then unclick it that resolved the jumbled mess of the forums with everything overlapping. Seems to be working now.

We are continuing to look into this. Can you tell us which browsers you have tried? If possible, could you try another one or two? This one is a difficult one to track. Thank you.

Using Arc, which is chromium-based. Chrome seemed to have the same issue, expectedly.

Seemed to be faster this afternoon, but it's back to being slow for me, when I'm logged in, using Safari and Chrome on my MacBook and Safari on my iPad.

If I'm logged out, it seems fine speed-wise.

I've noticed that there are 4 ways to add an image to a post now. Which one are you doing?

1 - copy and paste directly into the post
2 - use the "share photos" camera button up and to the left of the new post UI
3 - use the Upload attachments / upload from URL buttons below the new post UI
4 - use the "image" control in the new post UI

Curious if there's a difference between the 4. Might be worth adding a picture all 4 ways and seeing if one compresses more than the others?

Wait, we can just copy and paste images directly into posts now?

Awesome!!!! And a nice segue into this post.

I noticed that for stickied threads the down arrow link to the 1st unread post isn't showing up and (for this thread at least) The last post is still showing as a post from last night even though many more posts have been made since. I just took the screenshot a few minutes ago. Seemed like it was working normally up until OS wallpaper was applied.

Edit: Even after making this post it stills that post by thedude from last night as the most recent but switched from the 'L' avatar (which isn't even thedude's) to my 'B' avatar.
Edit2: Cleared data for this site and that didn't fix it.
Edit3: Actually, it looks like it might just be this thread that's bugged. The Off-Topic thread in the neighborhood still showed the down arrows for 1st new post and correctly updated the last post. Though it could also be that the OT thread was stickied before the changeover whereas this thread is new and stickied since the changeover. Not sure if any other new sticky threads have been created since 5/1.

I have 3 issues when I sign in from my chrome browser on my phone:

1) When I try to quote a post, instead of pushing me down to the quick reply with the quote embedded, it makes me go to the top to “post quote”. It also keeps adding all of the quotes and I can’t get rid of them. This just started in the last 2 days or so.

2) All of my posts give me an error when I submit even though they end up posting. This has happened since the switchover.

3) None of the smilies are showing up, they just have the question mark / bad link image.

EDIT: The specific error I get when posting using quick reply is:

“Error while saving content:

Error information: " 500 error Internal Server Error"“

This doesn’t happen when I use preview first.

Posts after April 8 are still not appearing, and I have been unable to change my avatar 😭 Just a heads up. It looks like the wait will be worth it.

Safari doesn't solve the problem either.
