Nice one Alex. Cheers again!

Looking through that thread the developers talk a lot about changing things behind the scenes regarding stability. Think they’ve sorted the download bug?

Alex

Brave Maybe although I still think that’s an ISP issue.

I had a brief pop-up message flash up, informing me that I’d received a message, though I can no longer see how someone would send one - maybe it’s a old message. I think it said “press ctrl+G” but that performs a browser search. Are there any plans to turn this system on or is there a way to read the message?

DrDamn

Anyone else having odd issues with writing comments using Android? In particular using standard swipe keyboard from Google has odd readjustment between words which look like ghost touches. Things like holding down the delete button doesn’t speed up deleting text it just deletes one character then stops. Thought it was my phone at first but then realised it’s only here that it occurs.

Jogort

DrDamn been having that issue with gboard for a while but can’t say I’ve paid attention to it just being on here (or just webforums in general) or not, I’ll keep an eye on it.

Brave

I’ve had issues with swipe typing on g-board for a few months (not just here, I can’t see a mechanism where the forum could interfere with what’s going on between our fat fingers and Google Skynet).

Switched to an alternate version (Microsoft one I think) and once I got used to how it works I’ve had no issues.

Alex

Yeah, I get problems with the keyboard on this site, I don’t know why that would be as it’s just an HTML textarea. I don’t see why it should work differently from a textarea on any other site.

Alex

Finally updated the forum to version 1.0.4.

Will see if the various text/url bugs have been fixed.

🧔 A new user slug driver was introduced which uses the user Id.
🔐 Hardened headers against actors with bad intent.

📃 Asset publishing separated from the migrate command into assets:publish.
🔍 Fixed searching discussion titles.
🐛 Tons of fixes.

I might try to set up a new profile. Definitely not letting me post imgur or Drive links.

It’s so random.

Alex

I don’t know what the issue is. I never have any problems posting. I just tested and I can post imgur and drive links from PC and phone without a problem.

Did you refresh the page before testing?

Brave

Alex just cleared cached on my phone (I keep forgetting to do that as its harder to find the option on phone imo). It’s just allowed me to do a drive link so that’s good. Imgur gave me an error but I suspect that’s actually one of those intermittent errors that imgur is notorious for.

Alex

If you really want to get to the bottom of it, then follow these steps.

Go into Settings > About in your phone and find the Build Number. Tap the build number seven times to put your phone into developer mode. This just enables a new menu option.
Go into Developer options and enable USB Debugging
Plug your phone into a PC with a USB cable.
Start Chrome and go to chrome://inspect/#devices
On your phone accept the option to allow another Device to debug your phone
Click Inspect next to Clod of War in Chrome
View the Console tab
Try to post a link on your phone
Tell me what it says in the console.

There is a guide here: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/remote-debugging/

Click the Inspect link here:

You should see something like this:
