CF2 Upgrade Q&A

[Spudgrandma]

Are missdancerama and I the only ones who had problems getting on yesterday?

Nope I did also, not all day but for a large portion of it.

 

[Tychicus2]

Are any of the *Leadership* even reading this thread anymore?

I haven't been around much due to the DNS problems. Let me catch up on things and I'll try to answer questions. I think the thread that RedStiletto has going may somewhat take the place of this one, since she knows the schedule of planned changes/additions.

I think this " due to the DNS problems. " explains a lot as to why we couldn't get on sometimes this weekend

 

[ravenscape]

Yes, it does. Some people still can't get in, from what I understand.

 

[redneckfollowingchrist]

Hello all. so i have a question...actually two.
does anyone know when the Chat Box will come back?
are the jobs comming back as well?

 

[ravenscape]

Know you are all working so hard but anything with the pets yet? cfpetrescuer9

The pets are high on the priority list. I don't have an estimate, though. Now that the DNS problems are getting better, hopefully some of the folks who are more in the know about the coding and timing will be able to check in and let us know.

Will we be getting pda back? thats very useful for those who are on dialup either always or at times --- and it wasn't the same as the archive system next mentioned once which doesn't allow for new posts - thanks

I haven't heard anything specific about PDA view timing, but it's important to a lot of people. I hope it's high on the list.

No, a lot of people were affected, and some are still affected.

Many of the leadership were affected by the DNS problem. Also, I think RedStiletto's thread to some extent takes the place of this one. However, I still read it when I'm online and try to answer questions.

Chatbox will be coming back, but I haven't heard anything specific about when, besides "soon". Jobs will also be coming back (not sure how soon).

I had heard that it should be a couple of weeks but that was like 4weeks ago.

 

[barb754]

Well..... finally after 3 days of not being able to get on I am here. I think being a site supporter something should be given back when everything is up and running. We have not had our site supporter status since May 4th. So maybe a few added months to our paid subscriptions would help.

I wonder, those Statistics do reveal Facts, right? - and
I wonder, how *skilled*?? PROGRAMMERS at "Christian Forums.com" are,
in resolving the growing, rising # of buggy challenges, continuing being reported...

Can anyone answer these 2 questions, accurately, I wonder...

Please, please, please fix our rep trays. When you try to go to the second page of "Latest Reputation Received" you get N/A for who repped you. What good is that? I don't have time to be on in the morning, how can I tell who repped me? somebody wrote me a nice note, how am I supposed to tell who it's from? It's like getting a postcard with no signature.

Hello dear sister

I already wrote a BUG-report for that one you can read
here: 476 2.0.0: Unable to see who is repping, past page one
27th May 2008

In response, SirAdrian sent me an Email, claiming:
"Dear sk8Joyful,
SirAdrian has just updated the properties to a Ticket you have submitted
entitled "Unable to see who is repping, past page one" -
in the CF2, The Updated site project at Christian Forums."

The "properties" he was referring to, were: "Not A Bug / Working As Designed".

Now, I knew that was NOT "true", as evidently more...
than seven members are having the same problem here, including yourself here just now.

WHEN?? will this specific BUG actually be resolved

 

[sk8Joyful]

I just opened another BUG-report:
"Not A Bug / Working As Designed" BUG
This is a Critical Unknown / General Ticket for 2.0.0 of CF2, The Updated site
Assigned Awaiting Feedback

2nd June 2008 04:42 PM "Hello -

That response: "Not A Bug / Working As Designed", which continues being handed-out,
while all the while more... CF-members are describing... & reporting the very SAME problem, has in & of itself become a BUG.

It is morally & ethically Wrong, telling people: "Not A Bug / Working As Designed", when obviously the problems still exist...

How about PROGRAMMERS' Honesty as the least Standard, one should be able to trust, at a "Christian"-site."

Because quite honestly it could be working as designed / originally programed by the developer of the plugin.

I dunno, I might be willing to accept that "explanation",
were it not for this post, in my earlier/referenced BUG-report, by Snoochface:

"If this isn't a bug and is working as designed, I'm calling shenanigans. a ridiculous design,
and considering that it HAD been working "properly" when CF2 was first released,
it seems highly unlikely that all of a sudden a nicely working feature no longer works
but is now being considered working as designed.

Please fix this. It's a bug. It worked before. It's broken now."

Hmm...looks like the big boards javascript hasn't been added back since the site was upgraded, doesn't it?

 

[Tychicus2]

Thanks Raven for reading and acknowledging...

Have you updated the bug report to say that it used to work differently? That's the fastest way to communicate with Sir Adrian.
