Bug reports & suggestions

I haven't checked extensively, but maybe there is an option to change it? (In that case I apologise for wasting this space here.)

I've noticed that in the new forums, the title of a thread only appears once on top of the page, which is a minor annoyance to me until... I have to update the Hall of Fame thread, in which it has become completely unreadable, as it relies on the different subject lines assigned to individual posts to distinguish between the different activities.

I don't know whether it's worth reverting this behaviour (some people may abuse the subject lines for whatever purposes?) but IMO sometimes individual posts have different subject lines for a reason. It is currently very confusing.

I'll look to readd this. However, in the interim, you can just hover over the post datetime, and it'll give you the post topic.

Turns it was just an admin setting to show or hide the post topic! Reenabled now.

Thank you!

Trying to login in AGS Wiki takes me back to the forum, and when I access AGS Wiki, it's not logged anymore.

I have this unusual usability problem, likely because I have mod rights in certain threads, "Quick edit" button also shows for me on other peoples posts, and I keep clicking on it occasionally when trying to reply... Good thing I was able to notice what i do wrong before saving the post.
Is there a way to make it more distinct when it's not on my own posts perhaps? I don't want to remove someones text by mistake...

It looks like my "trophies" ("X worked on one or more games that won/were nominated for an AGS award") are not showing under my profile pic. Is there a setting I've missed somewhere that I need to enable in order to display them? Or are my itch/twitter icons overriding them?

Work in progress!

I'll have a think about this!

I've changed the label to "Quick Edit (Other's)" on moderators' posts.

Fantastic, thanks a lot!

It seems like the PM functionality isn't working at the moment.

Snarky · Sat 26/11/2022 15:13:02

Forum search isn't working either.

AGA · Sat 26/11/2022 16:24:48

Should be fixed! It was a side effect of an SMF software update.

For some reason the forum is listing the date as March instead of January.

eri0o · Tue 03/01/2023 19:40:01

UHM, it seems we are back to 2013

AGA · Wed 04/01/2023 18:01:52

Can someone please give exact examples of where the dates are wrong? I've poked around, and everywhere I've looked they're showing today

Here. Wrong date in top left corner. At least it's the correct year now, only three months wrong.

Spoiler

@AGA , is the wiki username and password the same as the forums?
