If you are experiencing any issues with the forum due to the recent software update, please let us know here. We will do our best to address these as soon as we can. Please limit this to any bugs or glitches and not the ongoing forum "slowness" as this is a separate issue.

Things are slower. So far, that is all I see.
 
I clear cookies, etc., - anything that can be cleared - every time I quit out of Firefox/Chrome. Both before and after the software update, I'm still getting those random delays that tied to the DDOS crap.
 
What's going on with the (y) that's showing up in the "Likes" bar? Is that a result of the updates?
 
I'm checking-in with a concern:

"Do we want Basement threads showing-up on the frontpage in the 'Trending Content' field?"

I suspect not, but they indeed are.

You only see this because you have Basement privileges. Those who don't have those privileges don't see this.

Very good, Red.

Thought I should mention it because you know, Vegas.

Thanks for the reply and all the stuff you & the other guys are doing. (y)
 
On my phone, the bold/italic etc options are grayed out.

Edit: nevermind, they do work afterall but just look grayed out. That's a bit confusing.

I was sort of wondering about that, too.

And, per another member's observation, I also see a few oddness thingies with the scrolling. Sorry, "Oddness thingies" isn't very helpful. I got caught off guard when I saw the post about that thumb thing.

And this baby blue style is very interesting. Can't say as I've seen this style before. But then I have been pretty much stuck using the phpBB software for most sites. I must admit, I'm giving this XenForo some thought because of this baby blue style. My daughter might take to this style, too.
 
Was good yesterday, now. The alerts are slow to load and I need to click more than once to open a thread.
 
The 1st picture I tried to copy/paste into a post did not work. It's been only 1 attempt so far. I'll make attempt 2 now.
Also, I have not seen any change in speed.

Cleared cache & cookies when the slow down first hit
Software version is 18.5 I can’t find a Safari version, Apple says it’s bundled with the system version.
