The Flyswatter

Not sure if this can be considered a bug, but I'm posting it here anyway.

Name: Search Forum Error message
Description: Every time I click go on the search panel after typing something in I get this:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 31457280 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 35 bytes) in /home/zelda/public_html/forums/search.php on line 1033

Date discovered: Today, Septemter 1st

EDIT: Huh, it didn't happen when I tried typing in different things.

I'm assuming that has something to do with some website on the server overloading out php memory limit. It shouldn't happen again - the websites are in the process of getting off the server.

(They're the previous owners websites - he's moving them off to make sure I have the whole server for ZU. The server has been moved into my name in the meantime.)

Name: Can't edit signature.
Date discovered: September 4
Priority: Medium
Description: All of ZU seems to be working fine for me. However, when I try to edit my signature it just results in a white page being displayed.

Name: Infinite PM notices, been there read that.
Date Discovered: A couple months ago I think...
Priority Low to Medium
Description: I get a PM, I get the notice, I read the PM, I go back to browsing the forums, I get a notice for the same PM I just read. This only happens on the blue forum skin.

Name: Disappearing posts
Date Discovered: Around September 20th
Priority: Medium I guess
Description: I made a post in a thread, then edited it to put an image in, and the post disappeared after I refreshed the page. I tried re-posting it, and the post didn't show up at all.

What thread was this, Atrius?

This one, but other people have posted in it since then.

Name: name problem

Priority: very low

Description: a name glitch. While I was looking at who's online I saw that one person's name was in the middle of the other person's name. It's just odd.

The names are 70s bear and the odd language name.

Name: Google Talk profile feature slightly buggy.
Date Discovered: 10/03/05

Priority: Low.

Description: Um, just noticed this a moment ago when I was looking at my profile for whatever reason. In the gTalk spot it said [googletalk] even though I knew I hadn't entered anything there. So I got rid of that. Then it made me wonder if other people were getting that, so I went to the Who's Online (full page version) and noticed that it wasn't showing an icon for gtalk on there at all. I also noticed that a few other people had their google talk spots changed to [googletalk] but none of them showed on the Who's Online page and no one who actually has an account seemed to be signed on, so I went to edit my profile to check. When I got there, the blank for gTalk said [googletalk] again even though I had just deleted it to be blank a few seconds ago. So I changed it to a few random letters and checked the Who's Online thing again and realized that it wasn't showing up on that list. Which I don't think it has been, but checking that I realized why so many people were automatically having an address of [googletalk] set. So anyways, I went back to Edit Profile to change it back to a blank space. Then I realized that it was reset to [googletalk] AGAIN.

So it would appear that everytime someone goes to edit their profile the forums automatically set the Google Talk address to be [googletalk]. And that messenger doesn't show on the Who's Online list. So that'd mean that everytime someone edits their profile it means that that feature is no longer showing their address as they're supposed to.

EDIT: Oh yeah, advanced search options on the Members list doesn't let you find people according to their googletalk address. Just realized that a few seconds ago.

Date Discovered: 8 October 2007

Priority: Minor

Description: Under SacredSturgeon's profile it said he was viewing the Nayru Clan. I clicked on the link and it gave me a message that the link was invalid.

I'm going to update the bug list and start looking more in depth into several of these bugs very soon - I greatly apologize that I have not been keeping up to pace with these, but of course life takes its toll.

Expect the Google Talk bug, at the very least, to be fixed sometime soon if I can figure it out.


As for Oni_Link516's bug - just clear your cache, dude.

Actually it fixed itself, wierd. Anyway, sorry about that.

Name: Nayru's No-Quoting Policy
Date Discovered: 10-15-07
Priority: Medium (maybe a bit higher than that)
Description: When I try to quote someone in Nayru's Lounge, it goes to a new page saying "Invalid Thread Specified." This does not occur on other forums/threads. I looked at Nayru right now, and the Lounge is gone.
Screenshot:

Where did the lounge go?

the annoying screen that pops up when I try to quote



UPDATE: The lounge is back. It might have been fixed, but I'm keeping the post there as a precaution (and this should be called to the attention of the Webmasters)

I don't know if this is a bug, but each time a log in, and when I'm not on ZU for say 5-10 minutes it logs me out. I click remember me. And it still does it. Is it possible for this to fix?

70s, it's possible your computer removes the cookies frequently. Check your internet settings.

N00b, are you sure you were looking in the right place, as in, it wasn't at the bottom of the stickies at that point?
