I'm sure you're right mustangSad Just gets frustrating the way it is. But, I guess if that's the biggest problem I have then life is good right?!?

Eric, Tim and assosiates are working on this(as I found out through a PM). These guys have done everything they can and are turning to other resources for a fix. Give it a little more time, Joe

Yep.  I second the above.  At the time of this post, I only see it happening in the 190 GB, and under those conditions.

Well I've noticed in the 190 GB page, it only does it after a new page has been populated with a few posts. After that, its blank page until that page is full and a new page is created.

Seemed to have gotten better for a while and either coming back again or some residual pages still doing it.

That makes two of us on that progress question Jester.  If its the worst thing I have to complain about I'm doing good but it is a bit annoying.

I don't know if it's me or a bug/feature but sometimes when I open a forum and click of 'latest post' for a specific thread topic I end up with a blank page. If I open the thread and click on the last page listed at the top I get the 'latest post'. Is it me?

http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/general_discussion/f/50/t/86586.aspx?sort=ASC&pi240=197 died too.

Not yet. It seems to be an intermittent problem--like a short. Online is aware of it now. As soon as they get back to me about a fix, I'll let you guys know.

Thanks for bearing with us,

Tim

This seems to have been fixed.

I had the issue in the Butcher Bird Group Build thread, and I am no longer having the issue.

Thanks Nathan, I just tried and that is where it happened to me as well - happened again.

OK, Butcherbird and Big Russian Group Build for sure. I'll send it over to the online team. No promises, but I'll see what they say. 

Thanks Tim. Been noticing this problem too and just havent said anything about it.

Thanks Tim,

I was reluctant to post because I thought I was doing something wrong - glad to hear that people who know something about it agree that it's real.

OK, guys.

Online has gone in and done some testing. They are now aware of the problem and that it's cropping up all over the place. There are a couple of other priorities that they have to take care of for other magazines and then they'll swing back through and fix this.

I will keep you posted when info becomes available. Thanks to all of you for helping us on this one and your patience as we fix it.

Yeah I don't think it's a browser issue... I've had the same thing happen to me on Firefox, Explorer, and Chrome. Seems to happen when a thread reaches a certain length. It happened on the old Japanese GB (part I) and is now happening on Tigerman's 'Big Cat' GB.

I have the issue in all forum pages. And some are completely blank. I will also suggest to make direct file uploads to the forum availible. I'm tired of going to copy the img code and pasting it and I know others feel the same way.

Which browser are you using? If you're having issues with the entire forum, I would guess that there is compatibility conflict, maybe with the browser's version or a setting. Let me know and I'll add your query to the others for the online team.

If you mean uploading images and movies directly to Kalmbach's servers, the amount of server space we have is prohibitively small. We couldn't house all the images that appear on the Forum. 

If you mean pasting a direct link, this can be done via IE and Firefox, but it doesn' t work with Chrome right now. According to my conversation with online, this might be due to changes Google pushes out for Chrome. The Rich Text Editor is part of the Telligent's community software and we'll have to wait for either a patch for Chrome or a patch from Telligent to fix the RTE. It could also be remedied with an upgrade to the community software.

Tim,

Just a thought. It seems to me that the problem appears when the next actual post would start a new page and when you click on 'latest post' it goes to that, as yet blank, page. Once that new page has an actual post in it, 'latest post' works. Make any sense???
