I’m having an issue where if I click on the star for a thread instead of taking me to the first unread post it takes me to the top of the page of the first unread post.

Similar thing happens with clicking on notification of reactions to posts. It just takes you to the top of the page and not to the post.

Same. Same with if somebody quotes you. Annoying.

AAABatteries · Jul 18, 2020

Since others appear to be having the issue @Memphis Foundry

AAABatteries · Jul 18, 2020

It appears to only be happening on my mobile devices - desktop works fine. Maybe an iOS issue?

Same here. Just started in the last couple of days. Annoying imo.

Came here to say this.

Same! Let's keep bumping until we get a response.

Thanks. Invision that does the board software is taking a look. Unfortunately, it's not something we can do anything about. Sorry.

Why do I have a list of like 50 that dates back to June?

AAABatteries · Nov 21, 2020

@Memphis Foundry - not sure if search indexes are rebuilding or what but the search function is super fast and super inaccurate all of a sudden.

Did something break that no longer allows us to see items we've posted in? My main link to the FBG forums is:

https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/discover/content-posted/

It stopped working this week. Is the problem on my end or FBG's?

Happened to me starting Friday after being locked out of the site for a few minutes. Still seeing threads I’ve posted in non-starred.

Osaurus · Nov 22, 2020

I am now also experiencing consistent warning prompts about a user who evidently is using the same IP address as me? I have no idea who this user is. My IP is through Frontier and it’s not static so maybe I hit one that’s been blocked? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've been getting the same message on and off for the past 24 hours or so. I'm guessing we have the same redacted parts, such as a password that may or may not be the opposite of "no".

I’m going to not click on profiles for now, but is it normal that it shows me peoples PMs where you’d usually see recent posts? It doesn’t feel right. @FBG Moderator

Yeah. I am trying to find some posts that I know I have searched for before and found and now I just get zero results.

Did we ever get an answer to this? The search just doesn't work anymore?

belljr · Dec 16, 2020

OK thought it as me - I cant find anything in the search - topics I know exist arent showing up at all.

HellToupee · Dec 21, 2020

Search =

It’s HORRIBLE. Almost makes it unusable.

shades · Jan 5, 2021

I keep getting Service Unavailable errors from the server, which is probably part of it... Slow, slower, crash.

All downhill now anyways

Sinn Fein · Jan 11, 2021

Osaurus · Jan 11, 2021

Interesting changes

Sinn Fein · Jan 11, 2021

Is there any way to get rid of the "stats" box on the right?

The Privacy - Terms reCAPTCHA takes up too much screen on mobile devices imo.

Oh - and maybe bring back the edit button.

But, as to the Stats box - I personally don't see anything of value in there to warrant keeping it displayed, and taking up valuable screen space.

And the Hide/Delete function...

McBokonon · Jan 11, 2021

The automatic contraction of quotes, where you have to physically expand it to see the whole thing, is worth more than whatever people end up complaining about combined.

Those options are in the dropdown when you click on the three dots in the top right off your post

Click to expand...

And the Hide/Delete function...

You can still "hide" a post - but you have to make that choice before you post in the first place. I may have to think on this one, but it seems like there might be a more efficient way to "hide" a post before its posted...

ETA - yes you have to edit your post before you post it also - but the "hide" button stays on, so it hides all of your subsequent posts, unless you turn it off. :rant:

ETA - Not very intuitive, but at least the functionality is there to learn.

Osaurus · Jan 11, 2021

The search function seems to work a little better :thumbup:

Wildcat · Jan 11, 2021

I have this persistent reCAPTCHA logo at the bottom of my screen. Clicking on it brings up privacy terms, but it still won’t go away. Is there a way to get rid of it?

Me too.

If someone figures out how to get rid of this please bump this post.

Thanks.

Does anyone know how to turn on the "dark" feature where the background is black instead of white?

Never mind, I found it. It is at the very bottom of the page under "theme"

Thank you. Weird to wake up this morning and it wasn't dark for some reason.

Thought I was the only one with issues with this. Also got a few site downs as well in there

ex-ghost · Jan 11, 2021

The star is too small next to the topics posted in. Please make it bigger. Please, my old eyes need it.

shades · Jan 11, 2021

I can read individual threads and see the main listing of forums, but,

This page isn’t working

forums.footballguys.com is currently unable to handle this request.

HTTP ERROR 500

when trying to see the main FFA page. Weird.

EDIT: Turns out I had "Expanded Mode" on (next to the "Start New Topic" button on the forum main page). Clicking the Expanded Mode button breaks the server's rendering the FFA.
