forum glitches

[Tim]

Im sure I am not the only one to have noticed a few changes have happened overnight...and the forum is behaving in a rather odd way.

[Brian Colclough]

I've not noticed anything unusual Tim. What's been happening?

[Guest]

Seems same as usual here

[Tim]

smilies are appearing as text, and all the titles across the top are doubled up.
Ill send a screenshot.

[Brian Colclough]

Nothing like that here, have you got an alternative browser you can try ?

[Tim]

Heres a shot - and notice that my smilie inserted in post above has appeared as text.[img][/img]

[Tim]

[Mark Barnes]

All seems fine on the work comp using Firefox i`ll have a look at the update logs

[Tim]

arrrgh - cant insert images now either. Using firefox as normal.
Ill try IE

[Mark Barnes]

Images are showing my end on FF???

[Mark Barnes]

mine looks like this, all fine

[Mark Barnes]

Update logs show no update since 28/10/10 ??

[Brian Colclough]

I'm running Chrome now but I've just fired up F/F and the site looked OK

[Tim]

Just installing IE now - I removed it years ago, but have an old ver 7 copy on my back ups. I let ya know.
All graphics have simply disappeared [u]

[Tim]

After an hour of faffing about, it still wont work correctlyin FF. I am now in IE and its fine, so obviuously FF has changed something. Must say, Im finding FF to be more trouble than it ever used to be, these days it requires as much updating as IE - due no doubt to increasing popularity and increased profile for attack. Grr

[Tim]

Well still no joy - FF is completely up to date, all plug ins have been updated in the last hour, and still wont display any graphics at all - avatars, headers, smilies, nothing, zilch, nowt.

Tim, try clearing out your Cache in firefox, it might be some corrupted data in there that is causing the issues you are having. Click on "Tools", then "options" and go to the Advanced Tab. If you then select the "Network" tab, there should be a button that says "clear now". this should clear out your cache.

You might need to log back onto the forum etc, but it might sort things out for you...

[Brian Colclough]

On my version of F/F under tools there's "page info" and on that there's permissions and within that there's an allow images option is it there on yours and is it allowed. Not trying to teach you to suck eggs

[Mark Barnes]

Ive got nothing other thn what the guys have said above sorry Tim,

M

[Tim]

Thanks chaps...tried all the above and still no difference. Might try a rollback to restore point and see what happens.

[Guest]

Mine is fine for me on FF but I have noticed the odd Glitch from time to time

[Tim]

Roll back has done nowt - I am running out of ideas, maybe tomorrow I will re-install FF...... or maybe I will just stay in bed all day :-(

[Tim]

Got it ! Gawd knows how, but somehow, my config had changed for "permissions.default.image" from code1 ( default ) to 3.
And normality was returned.
