STATE OF THE FORUM - READ BEFORE POSTING

[macdonjo3]

@shezboy yeah, I have that too. It used to happen when I reply to a thread.


Attachments seem to be all mixed up. Someone else's attachment replaced mine: http://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/al...f-the-best-book-launches-of-the-month.846115/

I have that redirecting to blank page after replying to threads like the previous two posters have said also.

Another bug/css "bug" is that when my post is a bit longer then the last sentence and the reply, quote etc bar is way too close. I have added and image.

I notice this user's profile is not showing: http://www.blackhatworld.com/members/sashablack.86027/

Also, is there no spot to check when infractions expire?

Does the new forum allow additional emoticons? I notice in a lot of my posts and threads I used to use a lot of the specialty ones like pirate:, :beerchug:, etc. as well as a lot of even more obscure ones that were in the old emoticon library. While it's not that big a deal, it does make a lot of my older posts look funny now. lol

So will the old library of emoticons be moved to the new forum?

Hi Damien, thanks for updating BHW. We appreciate the efforts you and your staff put into making this one of the best communities in the world.

How are we getting along with point 2.1 ?

Thanks

In the marketplace, sometimes people split the image in multiple pieces for somewhat faster loading. One such thread is this one. But I've noticed now that there are spaces between the images and they weren't there before the update. So yeah, check that out will ya?

1. Automatic watch thread checked is kind of annoying.
2. Jr. VIP ribbon should be shorter and not to go over an avatar.
3. How come someone has signatures with larger font than 3?

2 was already suggested earlier in the page.
As for 3, I think the default size puts them down to size 2, but some people have theres as size 3. You need to report posts who use larger than size 3 instead of asking why. To answer your question, the staff doesn't know why people break the rules, maybe you should PM the person with the signature and they can help you?

I am trying to submit a new BST thread and I am getting an error that my title must be less than 100 characters. I manually checked on http://www.charactercountonline.com/ http://www.lettercount.com and they all show my title as being 90 characters, which is below the limit. I also counted the number of characters myself and can confirm that my title is under 100 characters.

It says in this thread that BST submissions are now open again, so is this a temporary bug or is the allowed characters for a title some other number?

Here is the exact error I'm getting:

Sometimes when I reply to the thread, It redirect me to the page, where advertisement banner is showing. Does anyone have the same issue?
Thanks

The new site looks great. I look forward to sharing more.

I am not able to get this 14th point of Items we are working on
"Credit Card options other than PayPal for those without full PayPal in their country"

Does that mean BHW is not accepting payments via credit cards?

Nope it means that certain users in specific areas are unable to currently pay via paypal, we're looking at solutions for them. Rest of the world can pay via paypal using a credit card.

This issue has now been resolved.

Facing Same issue - If it'll get sorted? Also when you leave the First page of any marketplace section and go onto 2nd page onwards sticky threads don't show up. We're only having 20 threads per page now, so sticky threads not showing up from 2nd page impacts big time on exposure advertiser gets. @Diamond Damien

I assume I was meant to actually post this on here, rather than as a new thread.
http://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/feedback-score-not-counting.845141/

If this is being dealt with under Point 3 I apologise. (Status levels - (thanks, stars etc) will be coming back soon, you will have all your post / status thread counts from the old BHW transferred over.)

It doesn't seem to just be my account, but it's not completely universal either. Some accounts who had iTraders have scores now, some don't.

For example even back2form, who has far more positive feedback than I do, has a score of 0/0/0.

If visitors are not clicking on the first page they are not clicking on your ad. The first page, as with all search results, is the most heavily used. This won't change, it's inline with most search results.
