HTML in posts (and not just new posts) still seems to be kinda screwy.  For example, thy hyperlink at the bottom of SHS: Numerous mod updates as well as the marquee in the first post of NearInfinity (which I haven't edited since last August) aren't working properly.  I tried editing the NearInfinity post to get the marquee working again, but was unable to.

Marquee not working is a feature, not a bug, no matter the circumstance.

I can no longer get "new since my last visit" to load when looking for new posts; it resets to "last 24 hours," no matter which choice I make!

[Dakk]

I ONLY have "New since my last visit" and can't change it to anything else.

[ScuD]

The download problem still exists and pause/resume download is not supported.

Erhm, yep, Jarno Mikkola here... I can't sign in,  and the worse part is my former Email account hasn't worked for a while now.

Yep, made a few post as Imp, so...

Edit: I sent you the Email Kae.

How would you like me to proceed? Do you want me be The Imp, or Jarno Mikkola? Shoot me an email at kae@spellholdstudios.net and I'll sort you out.

How can I locate the post to which an attachment is "attached"?  For instance this is the direct download link for the attachment, but how can I find its associated post on the forums?

[Kaeloree]

There's no way to do that, as far as I know, I'm afraid! Sorry!

[Isaya]

A search with the file name brought me several answers with direct download links for the thread (TBGGPP was there, along with moscd and tiscd), but it also reference the thread where the links were. This may suit your need.

"View new content" > "By time period" doesn't work. No matter what you choose, you will always end-up with "New since my last visit".

Erhm, for me it works perfectly... well to the limits of it's abilities to differentiate, as there's no "View only new content between this and that time period". And the default goes to the "New since my last visit", which I dislike so much that I bookmarked the "Past 24 hours" instead of the forum itself.
Yeah, the search should have more consideration for usability perhaps. So the search tags would have tics to set, and not overwrite all previous selections by default ... that the current links have. Yes, it can use text based searches, but those have to be manually input ... but with tics, one would use the tokens one selects and the search would be performed on their bases after the search button is used.

It probably sounds stupid, but how do you bookmark "new in the last 24 hours"? Becase the default option is awful for me, too.

Where I, always and forever, am getting "Last 24 hours"  Want to swap?

[Kulyok]

I do, I do! Seriously, though, if there *is* a way to get a new default, I'd like to learn it very much.

You switch the link to this(you right click the link and go to definitions or something like that depending on your web browser):

 http://www.shsforums.net/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=viewNewContent&search_app=forums&sid=12e298b00d933b5639d203bed4b446f5&search_app_filters[forums][searchInKey]=&period=today&userMode=&followedItemsOnly= 

And if you can't see that, just quote the message and you copy paste it from there. And then you might need to change this bit:

 &sid=12e298b00d933b5639d203bed4b446f5&search_app_filters 

To something different
Yeah, that's the link the link(yes, that's a link to a picture of the thing) contains actually.
And no, it doesn't sound anything awful, as it's a thing I had to learn first hand... well clicking and checking things like this was not my thing before, but apparently now it is.

Erhm and back to the problems, the IE Modding News autoposter has it's autowrite scematic a bit off as the forum formating between G3 and SHS is different (I don't want to even know how, but it is) which results with the links going wrong, making the whole thing a little redundent.
PS this is funny: <i><br /><br />

Ouh, and the code-tag doesn't remove the possible shortening of the texts... is this to prevent the google bots for example in their usage of the links ? EDIT: Erhm what just happened, this just autosolved itself after editing the post a few times... or K'aelore just wants to mess up my head.

Thanks!

[The Imp]

Yey, I got a "Upload Skipped (Error IO)" problem while I try to upload a file.. to this here thread.

Anyone else got this ?

[Sam.]

Is it just me or has the SHS server been down for somewhere around a day?  Looks like the most recent posts were on 26 Aug 2013?

[Gwendolyne]

Dont know about yesterday evening, but today morning (6H00 French time),the site was down...

[Kaeloree]

Yep, we were down for a while there. First major outage in a while, woo! It would have been fixed faster but SConrad was on an intercontinental flight.

[Yovaneth]

I hope his mobile phone was turned off....
