Title: Help The Arena looks funny
Post by: Ponyfan on November 30, 2017, 03:48:53 PM
Hi,

There's a lot of stuff missing on the Arena for me. The Shout box has disappeared and so has the forums button. I only have Home. Help Search Profile, My Messages Calander, Members and Logout. 
I hope it's not just me. I've tried logging out and back and deleting my cookies. I also got strange error messages saying something like I'm working on it and cookies?

Oh phew, I was thinking that I must've broken a rule of some sort by accident lol. Technology is fickle but you're definitely not alone. Hopefully our mods'll sort it out soon.

I don't see the side boxes, either, or the poll. I don't even see the option for the boxes in the admin parts of the Arena. Hmm....

I'm glad it's not just me. I don't have the side bards either with the list of forums either.

Glad it's not just me! I thought I hit something by accident or something. The whole left section (shout box, poll, navigation, who is online, etc) is gone for me. What happened?

The server software was updated today, and it's disabled our extra features (like the side bar stuff). We are working on it. :)

Has the greeting thing at the top of the Arena (the "good morning [username]" bit that changes throughout the day) disappeared for anyone else, or is it just me? :o

Mine just says "Hello, (user)." I missed the Arenapocalypse last night thanks to a closing shift.

Here's what happened. The forum software was upgraded and our add-ons became automatically uninstalled. Think of them as apps on a phone, if you like. Or mods on a game. They add some useful functions, or fun cosmetics or even just silly forum toys. Like the [you] function for example. We think that the old forum software combined with the old forum add-ons might have been causing some of the issues that have plagued the site lately.

If those add-ons have updates available that are compatible with the upgraded site, and the add-on was a very useful one, we'll do our best to reinstall it. If there is no updated add-on, or it wasn't that big of a deal to being with, we'll have to find a similar one or do without.  :)

That forum greetings one was one of those add-ons, and perhaps we'll bring it back. If not, we'll miss it but it wasn't a vital need to keep the forum running well.

Ahh, alright! That makes sense :) Just wanted to make sure it wasn't just an odd glitch on my end or anything, lol.

I missed the Arenapocalypse too, heh; I was asleep XD

That's what I call the bugs that people experienced two nights ago. Just a silly name.  :silly:

I must have been sleeping or working... just noticed the greeting was gone when I was changing my Avi. I'll miss it, it was cute, but I'll live.
