Shoutbox!

ifyouplease

some kind of permission

ifyouplease

for members perhaps from what i'm finding

ukadmin

delving in to the comments plugin guts..

ifyouplease

perhaps nobody should be allowed to edit comments

ifyouplease

alternatively if you can and it's easy allow people to hide comments and not edit any, not even their own.

ifyouplease

good luck!

richard

ukadmin

ukadmin

https://ukauthors.com/2017/03/31/game-of-death/

yep

Could you edit my comment?

ukadmin

yes I could

ukadmin

but I think I've sussed it now smile

I can't edit your reply...

ukadmin

need to test it now to see if it's fixed

ukadmin

Yep, I think it's fixed now!

HURRAH

ukadmin

I can edit mine but not yours and that '3 minute' edit buttons gone now

ukadmin

Phew!

ukadmin

thanks for pointing out that problem both

normality restored

ukadmin

I'm not sure about the turquoise border. I think the maroon looked better. Thoughts?

ifyouplease

maroon maroon maroon!

ifyouplease

bring it back please

ifyouplease

I think that we must not change background colours so often. Maroon had a warmth we need.

ukadmin

You want maroon? You got maroon! rotfl

HURRAH

Gothicman

Can you resolve the automatic logging in problem, where the robot box is triggered before you've had a chance to click on the images - and therefore gives the red error notice?

Gothicman

I'm on Mac

ukadmin

Not sure if I can fix that, Gothic. Again, the system relies on a plugin which I've not written and can't/won't be able to mess with...

ukadmin

I will check the plugin dev page to see if there are problems with Mac compatibility.

ukadmin

maybe it's because the check box 'keep me logged in' is checked?

ukadmin

maybe uncheck this?

Gothicman

Just checked tis auto log-in function on W10, and it works differently, the filled in words remain all the time, whereas on a Mac the spaces are blank and when you click om the top blank (user name or epost address, both blank spots (password too) fill in. On Mac now, that happens but before you can click on I'm not a robot, the inlogging triggers and the red error messages appear on all areas.

Gothicman

*the

ukadmin

okay. I've disabled the 'robot' on the login page and the login block. It's not necessary really as the robot is only needed on the new registrations page to stop spam.

Gothicman

I have to write in the password again and then it works. But to save time I don't use autofill, just fill in all the info each time instead.

ukadmin

so no more 'I'm not a robot' check to login

Gothicman

Great, I'll try that on my Macs. Thanks!

ukadmin

remember to refresh / force refresh (f5 on PC - not sure on Mac) to get a NEW loading page

ukadmin

or you might still see the robot

Gothicman

Yes, refresh on a Mac is CMD + R

Gothicman

Okay, works a treat now, no robot infill necessary. Thank you again. I suppose many had this problem.

Gothicman

Gonna watch the match now - here it's free on TV6!

ukadmin

ifyouplease

what happened to that simple step the random numbers code.

ifyouplease

I like the fact we are maroon, red, some blue and green nice gray block nice hover links

ifyouplease

looks very nice

ifyouplease

thanks all members that submitted a poem for the poetry challenge remember the deadline is 17th June

ifyouplease

don't ever change maroon

ifyouplease

blue title green button, this is a great combination, it has mojo!

ifyouplease

and the font also rocks...

ukadmin

Thanks! Font is called Libre Baskerville. It's a font used in many books (fiction paper/hardback etc) apparently.

ifyouplease

soon our elections here will prove how stupid voters are. stop the planet I want to get off!

guajiros

Call Elon Musk, he might help you

ifyouplease

I don't like him

guajiros

Neither do I but you wanted lift off smile

guajiros

I don't know anybody else who can do it for you

ketamine?

ifyouplease

I don't think he can do something other than try to write a different script which makes the universe reachable after the script makes the universe possible

ifyouplease

tee hee

ukadmin

Green dropdowns and mouse hovers wink

ifyouplease

Too Christmassy you sure?

ifyouplease

ukadmin

ionicus

ukadmin

@ionicus - are you talking about editing your posts in the chat system (and here in the shoutbox)?

ukadmin

If so, editing of shoutbox/chat posts is a feature of the PRO chat plugin. Another feature that we need to pay for to use.

ukadmin

$40

guajiros

what are positive and negative votes?

ifyouplease

lessons to learn

ukadmin

whatcha mean @guajiros

guajiros

what are we voting for/ and how. I guess I'm missing summat

ukadmin

Voting? on UKA? still don't understand.

guajiros

Me neither, forget it.

guajiros

There's a number of things I don't understand on UKA

ionicus

I believe the question arose because ifyouplease mentioned negative votes in a comment.

Comments can be upvoted or downvoted. So what? Next, please.

ionicus

Thanks for your illuminating explanation.

guajiros

OK but I'm not sure why anybody would want to.

Gothicman

The thread page numbers have gone again (not the Topic numbers) in Forum. Only one thread page is available, so that one can't see earlier contributions to the thread. It was working again for awhile, but not now.

Gothicman

After logging in and out again, they're back! Am I going mad?

Gothicman

*rhetorical

ukadmin

it's probably a cookie thing @gothicman
