    Hey Arkadians,

    Time to get down and dirty with the forum. I am looking for any form of bugs that you might see whilst browsing the forum. From dead links, missing images to text that seems to be out of place.

    I will be awarding 20 Forum credits to anyone who discovers and reports forum errors.

    Please post your findings on this thread and it will be a first come first serve basis. Any duplicated errors will be ignored if it is already stated in this thread before hand. I will however double check every entry just to make sure it is fixed.

    But now is the time to grab some credits whilst it is here. I have 1000 Credits to give away.

    So happy hunting and best of luck to one and all, lets find those bugs and SQUASH THEM!!! :sneaky:

    On this image, you need to click "Follow Link" then it will take you to the correct location. There is nothing wrong with this :) - This is the basics of Facebook hyperlinks. Thank you anyways for your input.

    WYSIWYG editor doesn't have table capability. Not a bug per-say as it is an oversight.

    I'm using IE. When going to search I don't seem to be able to find anything. I was puzzled that "treasure" didn't have any results, and when I did a check to see if I could find any of my posts it said no results found (print screen of it below).

    I'm using IE, and when I quick reply I noticed all of the buttons above my message are in gray; no visual image of the smily button, bold, italic, underline, etc. Print screen reference:

    Search by user name bugged and not showing any messages from old forum. For example:
    http://arkadiaforum.com/index.php?search/member&user_id=580&content=thread
    http://arkadiaforum.com/index.php?members/nikto.580/recent-activity


    Missing redirects from old URL to new (so all old links and bookmarks broken):
    https://www.google.com/search?q=site:arkadiaforum.com+Nikto


    For example:
    http://arkadiaforum.com/archive/index.php/t-8413.html should redirect to http://arkadiaforum.com/index.php?threads/selling-arkadian-sooto-dehera-small-vase.8413/ . Instead of returning "The requested page could not be found" it should return HTTP error 301 with new URL.

    [updated]
    Found another bug, while posting this message :)
    I can't put "+" in URL name, it autoreplaced with space, but it shouldn't in this case.

    I am unable to edit any of my post. I have tried relogging thinking permissions updated or something as 2 other people I talked to have no issues with this.

    How do i fix it?

    The search error I had above was not just character specific, that was my confirmation after testing if there was any use of the word "treasure." That should have worked as well but did not; I can take a picture of that tomorrow if necessary.

    I am on a different version of IE of an evening and the search functoin seems to work, as well as the images above quick reply. I'll plan on checking IE version tomorrow and following up. :)

    I'm currently reviewing the permissions for users. Will check that box for you but you should be seeing the edit button next to the timestamp below your post when the permission is correctly set.

    Yeah :( All links are broken atm....Its going to take time to fix them all.

    Right, following the idea of Dylan above, any and all help you guys can give, by fixing your own thread/post links will be greatly appreciated and rewarded. I currently have 1000 credits available (don't you just love being and Admin? :evilgrin:). If you PM me with a list of the posts where you have fixed the links, I'll award you forum credits for each and every one at a rate of 5 credits per link!

    How's that sound?

    Interesting. Ok, let me go over it again and we'll see if we can't work it out.

    EDIT: Hmmm, seems it should be working according to what I'm looking at....but just in case, I've moved you into the Registered Users group so you should now be sorted
