acid-brain Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Glad Psynews is back online, it was down so long I wondered whether it was coming back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTP Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Thank you everybody. I have heard that we were all very lucky ... normally it wouldn't have gone so well with all these database scripts and a slightly inexperienced user ... at least with our DB... I can assure you it won't happen again though - we are prepared now  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 What RTP means is that he fixed the site unintentionally doing something neither the support nor I thought was a wise thing to do. Anyway, that's a happy ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Yes that's normal; the database is now on a virtualized container, all I could do to stay on mysql 5.7, which Invision required before accepting to investigate the issue from 2 weeks ago (and after that they complained the fact it was slow might have to do with our issues...pricks). But it looks like I can switch back to mysql 8.0 now, say the developers (pricks*2).... YEAH, right, when I have 1 hour ahead of me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mars Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 I'll tune the database, a'd that will be all right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multi-Media Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Hello mods... can you clean up the "HAHA" from this thread and put it to the "OT" forum? Cause the poster does not want to discuss the issue he brought up.. Â Â 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veracohr Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 I removed most of the Hahas but I’m leaving it where it is.  The report system is the best way to alert us to something that needs attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but I can't see an option to change it TO the mobile version on my laptop, so I can't figure out how to change it back. I would assume the forum detects the operating system and chooses mobile/desktop for you, so it's pretty weird if its choosing the wrong one. Â What browser are you using?

In a thread at the InVision Community they suggest it's due to an automatic trigger which resolution your desktop has - if too low, the board will go into the mobile version. Is the browser window maximized? If yes, can you try to set your resolution higher? Super odd though that it works with one browser and with the other not... that's all I could find: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/405727-desktop-browser-stuck-in-mobile-view-in-ips-forums/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTP Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 On 6/16/2020 at 8:29 PM, AstralSphinx said: I have a request for a feature on the forums, namely this: https://community.soundcloud.com/share-embed-230064/how-do-i-embed-a-sound-cloud-player-into-a-forum-i-m-using-6395729 Would be neat to have the added functionality to add embedded small soundclound links, in signature as well as in posts. As the forum works now by default, if I add an embedded soundcloud link, it makes a huge preview, which is not ideal for the signature. Since it occupies a lot of real estate on the screen for users  hence annoying. I is however useful in the promo section with the large embedded link. Hi - you can embed soundcloud links in signatures ... see below I am using the embed function from soundcloud for it... Should be available for everyone, no?

It ceratinly is the forum software. The last thing I can think of is the resolution of the window, if you increase it it should be gone, I hope... Ultima ratio is that I make a new skin with disabled mobile function, but I do not yet know how to do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTP Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 On 8/18/2020 at 2:43 PM, AstralSphinx said: I have a general question regarding the section previously known as "other art" which was merged with the offtopic section. Within those subforums there is none from what I can see where one can post art? Or have I missed something?  My eyesight might be to blame as well. But yeah if there is a subforum or thread where one can post random digital art/visual arts, photography/street art and stuff like that. Or perhaps that goes into the main offtopic section? I'm not so used to that section as I never frequented it before in its prime I think the "other art" was just movies and literature ... so merging that with OT was the right thing to do. For that what you _probably_ mean with art, you could use the "visual promotion" forum if you had art to post that's at least related to psychedelic trance... 7 hours ago, AstralSphinx said: I'm wondering why we can't see forum signatures in the mobile browser? Could that be enabled somehow via sysop/admin control panel? Or if an option could be enabled for forum users to toggle between this mobile view and the classical desktop view while on mobile browser? Some forums I frequent has this option. I have no idea, sorry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astralprojection Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 please go back this timeline cannot take any more drastic life-changing events like psynews changing theme was talking a walk and could not for the fuck of me even log in. there was no button to do it! had to switch to desktop mode to barely see a faint grey login. then when i switched back from desktop mode the fucker wanted me to login again. do we really need all that stress in the midst of this corona crisis! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
