Hi All,
First off all I apologise to our members for the inconvenience caused and admit that the transition has not been a smooth one as we anticipated inspite our best efforts. We are working hard towards fixing and addressing all the issues reported by our members in the shortest time possible. And I really appreciate your understanding and reporting the issues. Will be making another post detailing the new features once all the major issues gets resolved.
Since it was getting difficult to track all the issues/bugs reported by members I am creating this topic so that everyone can post their issues. It will be helpful if members share the link to specify which page they are referring to and if its a visual issue please share the screenshot.
If the issue is already reported simply hit "like" for that user instead of creating one more post.
Also note we will not be updating the Celebrity / Chaska Meter ranking for this and next week. As we will be focussing on fixing the issues and bugs. Members who are spamming Celebrity Discussions please don't do that as they will be removed and WL might be issued for the same. Keep forum topics contextual and relevant.
I will be reaching out to members through PMs if we need more information to understand their issues.
Regards,
Vijay
Will be updated daily
Bugs Fixed List:
We are actively reading your feedback and will be adding more to this list soon.
Pending Bugs: I tried sending 3 private message sot a friend of mine, but the messages ar enot being sent, it has the 500 sign that, it is shown as error
I am trying to send messages but due to the interruption, I don't know how to contact my friend and also the post count is not increasing, it ahs stayed stuck ever since the site has changed its format
Issues which needs a fix as per my observation:
Pms
1. Enable the same checkbox feature with the whole buddy list for multiple pms.
2. Dates are not refreshed with the last pm.
3. Outbox not showing if the receipt has read the pm or not.
4. Not showing the count for unread Pms instead showing all amount of messages.
5. Previous conversation gets replaced when press reply. So we have to copy paste to keep a track of our earlier conversation.
6. If the subject of Pm is repeated more than once then it's showing 500 internal error and subject is not editable. *Fixed
Login issue
For some users,(those who didn't verify their account earlier) I-F is demanding email verification. If you are unable to access your email then there's no way to retract your id. There should be some way like google and other websites to replace the mail option and put a new one. As when any user is logging in to reach that certain verification stage they have already given their username and password. So that itself is one step verification.
Text editor
Basically everything needs a fix in this. Font, size, color. *Partially fixed
Formatting, Editing, Subjects
1. Forum topics are missing the header/subject. We can't edit the subject of any topic. *Fixed
2. Spaces are not working. Texts are all coming clamped up. *Fixed
3. Very often, While quoting no space is being added. *Fixed
4. Copy pasting under quoting is not working unless we are adding enters and then pasting the comment in between.
5. If any comment is been getting edited more than twice then it's either losing data or format such as bold texts would disappear.
or the whole text will disappear! *Partially Fixed
6. Forum codes such as Nocopy, membersonly and others not working.
Polls
1. You can't see the author's name who created the poll.
2. Except the creator of the poll none else can see the poll results. *Fixed
Threads & Navigation
1. Page counter on the threads are missing. It's only visible on 'My Posts' section!!
2. My posts section is missing the most useful option Quick post links. Bring this back ASAP. *Partially Fixed
3. Threads are missing Forum tags under the My post section. Please enable the previous filtering options.
4. Make the threads sorted by chronological order.
5.The member posts are not increasing and stagnant at a certain number. *Fixed
6. Search button is limited and not working at all!*FIxed
Friends & Interaction
1. Add buddy option missing on phone view.
2. Total friend amount is not visible.
3. Only 12 people on each page of the buddy list. And that too on random order. Please make it alphabetical like the previous version.
4. Page counter missing here too.
5. Now I can send friend request to myself lol!!π
6. Scraps are visible for everyone even who is not in friendlist.
7. Add page number for scraps.
Likes & Notification
1. Change the like status to 'LIKED" after we like any post. *Fixed
2. When I check if I have liked some post, it's showing my name a few times. (I know the reason but can we get a fix?) *Fixed
3. Bring back the visible list of likes like the previous version. That's the one thing which separates Indiaforums with others. For writers like me, it's very tedious & time consuming job to go through the whole list!π *Fixed
4. Notifications are limited to 10 and do not refresh at real time.
I know the DEV team has mentioned that timestamp is not working precisely & would be back so for now excluding that & few others like hyperlink error as it's being worked upon!!!
Hyperlinks *Fixed
Please have a look into these...Thanks...
1. Itβs really difficult to post long posts .
2. Very difficult to navigate on my phone . ( an iPhone )
3. We canβt see the number of pages in the thread .
4. I canβt use my previous links for stories and all . Itβs really disheartening as I had stored the links but now I canβt go only . This is big problem for fan fiction , I believe as authors index wonβt really work . At least their older one . Please look for a way to rectify this .

1. Editing the title of our thread
2. Cannot send pms to multiple people at a time i have to send single single pm to each person.
