Oh, I thought it was obvious what he's talking about, it took me 5 seconds to figure out and I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed

**iowadawg** · Oct 16th, 2007, 7:39 am

Noticed that yesterday.
Figured someone is messing with the code and may use that area to add something new.

**Kaos** · Oct 16th, 2007, 8:03 am

Yeah! I just caught on to what the heck we're talking about. Coffee must have kicked in :P

**iowadawg** · Oct 16th, 2007, 8:20 am

Coffee!
The must have drink.
Yesterday, got candy for halloween and to fill up our candy jars so the grandkids can empty them again.
Got some chocolate covered coffee beans for me.

**iowadawg** · Oct 16th, 2007, 3:35 pm

You must be using some weird browser, opera or safari or some other rarely used one.

Opera FTW!

**Red Hot Mama** · Oct 16th, 2007, 3:46 pm

I don't see it in IE7.

But Tim's screenshot does show something weird on the bottom of my post. Yellow & red rectangles inbetween the reputation scale and the report button??

**iowadawg** · Oct 16th, 2007, 3:47 pm

HA!!!
I found out why some can see and others can not see that!
UCP, edit options.
Then to postbit template selection.
If other than horizontal postbit, you will not see it.
I guess most have it set to horizontal postbit, where rep, etc. will show to the right and NOT under the avatar.

power hungry??? I think so

I don't see those?
I just reset mine to vertical postbit (legacy).
So now I see everything below each avatar.

**iowadawg** · Oct 16th, 2007, 3:54 pm

What?
Fantasy has INFRACTIONS????
How come I don't see them?

But more importantly, who gave her infractions?
And why???

it doesn't mean she has them, it means I can give them to any post which I am able.

that is far too many dogs!! for that alone I shall consider it :twisted:

**Colleen** · Oct 16th, 2007, 5:27 pm

Nintendo, try and keep in mind the different postbits used here (there's 2, not everyone uses what you use) and explain where to look in either postbit for what you're referring to.

We have a new feature to ban people from threads, I am sure whatever Nintendo is seeing has to do with it, it's to indicate that person is banned from the thread (only mods/admins would see it), but I don't know why he's seeing it, I don't believe anyone's been banned from a thread.... yet.

**Kaos** · Oct 16th, 2007, 5:57 pm

Where would you see infractions against yourself? I've never gotten any on a forum... that I know of atleast

**Colleen** · Oct 16th, 2007, 5:58 pm

Usercp would show infractions, above reputation.

**timsdd** · Oct 16th, 2007, 5:59 pm

girl scout!

right above your rep in the UCP!

"Latest Infractions Received"

**Colleen** · Oct 16th, 2007, 6:00 pm

And thanks for pointing this out, Nintendo. My bad, I was rushing around and copied too much then pasted it not knowing.

**bbrian017** · Oct 18th, 2007, 6:29 am

I noticed this site has an issue with the blog feeds. I have noticed the feed cannot handle Quotations in a blog title well as you can see from my recent blog

Should something be done about this, maybe a fix or something I know it's not an issues at all forums, what do you think?

I've noticed this in the past here and on other forums, we can't fix it ourselves, it's our RSS feed reader parsing it that way, I know it's annoying but have never been able to find a solution.

Maybe you can ask the guys over at digitalpoint it seems to work fine for them or no?

I can't remember now and I have a different blog feeding to them right now so I can't check...

hmmmm

They don't bother answering those sorts of questions, it would be locked. We're using carp, they're probably just using a different reader, one I probably couldn't get to work.

**bbrian017** · Oct 18th, 2007, 6:36 am

ok that sounds fair enough. I wish I knew more about these types of things I would surely fix it free but I just don't have a clue.

/cry

**Colleen** · Oct 18th, 2007, 6:37 am

If I get time one day, I'll be looking into it myself, thank you, Brian.

**timsdd** · Oct 18th, 2007, 6:49 am

you can't use them over there AFAIK either, or at least not special characters from the character map, neither can you use "entities"

**Colleen** · Oct 18th, 2007, 7:28 am

There, better now at least, Tim's displays right, it just can't display quote's right, but "question marks" are better than what the carp was putting out.

I hadn't been able to get magpierss to work before, that's why I was using carp. We're now using magpierss.

**bbrian017** · Oct 18th, 2007, 7:30 am

yeah that looks good, way better than the other text

that looks great. now I just need to make a new post!

**Big Dan** · Oct 18th, 2007, 1:59 pm

It's has to be a php issue.. I have the same problem with the shoutbox on my forum.. Quotes and ampersands (&) display all wonky, I've looked into it but cannot find a fix. :eek:
