Since the maintenance I have been unable to post from my laptop - I get a forbidden message.

As @No-Quarter said, try a hard refresh or clear your browsers cache. Your browser is probably running older cached code or there is a session mismatch

There's been a few more issues this time because the software hadn't been updated for ages and there were loads of changes

Cheers. Worked.

@Anonymous if it's not showing when you click on the spoiler, you might have to clear your browser cache (I had to)

Nah it was working fine for me, just curious what it looked like in the preview part

@bovidae

Pedantic is good. That's what I need to check things

I'll change that one to 'Sydney'. I generally only track the host city for SR (only the AB results page records the grounds correctly)

@mariner4life said in Thread Tags:

that explains the random notification i got from 2019!

Yeah and the exciting Foster has resigned! thread re-appearing, then disappointing us all 😞

On the plus side - we use SquarePOS for our club EFT, and I've figured out how to set up a shop online.

Processing fees go from 1.9% to 2.2% but it is a handy option rather than just running around on game day. Tracks inventory too...

@duluth nah is usually only when I am posting a reply, I click refresh, the text is still there but if I have uploaded an image it has to be re-loaded.

Never logs me out.

@hooroo said in Maori characters - ū etc:

[edit -split from a match thread]

@stargazer How did you get the line above the U in Manawatū (I copied and paste from yours)

If you have a Mac you can select the Māori language keybord and you'll get a United Tribes flag in the corner where the language flag is (usually it's an Oz flag for NZ based Macs). You can find it under keyboard preferences.

Then you just hold down option and the vowel and you'll get the macron.

yeah was slow AF for me late yesterday afternoon (c 1630 - 1800) and early evening, but back to normal now.

Might be worth clearing the browser cache too

I feel like you should start every thread with this, it's such a...

And I still don't know what a "hard refresh" is.

@duluth said in Possible android issue:

@taniwharugby

Thanks

I don't get the issue myself. Does anyone else get it? I presume it's a recent issue?

As usual it's worth clearing the browser cache. There were a lot of changes early last week

Think I msy have had the issue previously, but not recently.

@tim Uhm, dare I say it? Wrong thread?

To be honest, you never really know with @Tim

Ok it’s more complicated.. there will be some down time tonight

@duluth said in Removing the watch/chat thing:

@nta

Refresh. It should be gone now

Great success!

@duluth said in Forum maintenance 06/07/2021:

Well that was a waste of time

An error on the last step which I can't fix right now. So we've rolled back to the 3pm backup

On a positive note - the backups work

Thank Christ for that! Imagine if @MN5 had to repost his entire meme collection.

again.

@duluth said in Forum maintenance 18/02/2021:

when I re-added the 'Fernies'

The way that's going it might not have been wise.

Doing it manually is possible, but it's more work. This is from that same webpage, and shows you how to do it:

Just had it for the first time on my iPad pro, Safari in desktop mode. Refresh and it works

SR Results Page Results - The Silver Fern

Aussie Teams and Super Rugby AU are searchable

No one was asking for this

Eventually I assume the two comps will combine post covid. So I'll keep the results in one place now.

Match Details

I realised we were capturing a lot of info about games. So now that is collected on a single page.

On the SR & NPC results table recent matches will have a View Details button:

view details.png

Clicking on that opens a new page with teamlists, highlights and the top 10 liked posts from the TSF thread.

The teamlists were correct when they were named. I wouldn't rely on them being correct though.

Currently the details go back to last years NPC and SR Aotearoa. Over time it should become a reasonable reference of what inane jokes were upvoted in match threads

match details.png

@Duluth Only get it when I first open a session - I click on unread and everything works.

I figured it was some sort of age discrimination test thing 😉

@Duluth said in Embedded Facebook videos.:

Ok, I was planning on doing a software update in the middle of this week. I'll try another method of embedding FB videos when I do that

Too busy.. will get to this in a couple of weeks

@antipodean said in Dark theme constantly resets:

As per title, I use the dark theme and it constantly resets to the light theme without rhyme nor apparent reason. All tsf cookies are enabled and I'm using Opera. Anyone else experience this disturbance in the force?

Hmm, no recent changes

The plugin that does the css switch hasn't been updated for 3 years. The core forum app hasn't been updated on the tsf server for a few months

All that is happening is that button sets a key/value in the browsers local storage. So something else must be clearing it out?

"Fuck this I'm getting drunk"

Headline of the year - from anywhere.

clear cache & refresh

@Yeetyaah said in NPC results archive:

We just chuck results in the thread? I've come by a Waikato season overview book from the 1980 season which has all match results in it.

Thanks but I think we have all the results now?

I didn't include any 2nd division games before the 14 team competition. It was getting too complicated
In 1980 Waikato wasn't in the first division

@Duluth thanks fella, glad someone else found the same issue!

NOt a show stopper, but nice to have.

@Bones

Working for me. Tested on chrome and windows too

@Bones my what and my who?

@Snowy said in TSF Demographics:

@Tim said in TSF Demographics:

@Crucial It’s busier than during the world cup.

That might actually be me avoiding work.

Keeping the crime stats down. Go on ya.

Results page is up now
https://www.thesilverfern.com/results/

You can get to it from the front page links here:

link.png

Season Results

The page defaults to showing the current season. There's a menu to select previous seasons

default.png

Team Results

The team results are is more interesting

Select 'Search By Team', then select a team

The Team results can be filter by:

Opposition Home/Away Year

The table will filter and so will the summary card

Filter.png

The table collapses down to phone size but the info is easier to read on larger screens (maybe go to landscape mode on a phone)

There will be an All Blacks version of this page. Also a NPC one (not sure how far that will go back though)

Let me know if anything is broken or if you have any suggestions

@Toddy
Cheers.

I've had to friggen work for the last 2 hours!!! damn you!! damn you all to hell!!!

happy new year, thanks for providing the platform for my procrastination, you're doing God's work

FYI on the front page there's a list of games. Clicking on the game takes you to the match thread

It's visible on tablet size and up

It's just pulling data from the 'Rugby Matches' sub forum. It's another way to get to the commentary threads quickly

Matches.png

@mariner4life They are more terrified of the twitterati outrage mob who happen to be the same folk writing articles for the majority of online retarded news publications. www.changetheterms.com to give you an idea.

Most normal people don't care and advertisers don't seem to understand that or want to risk the bad publicity.

@sparky said in TSF front page:

Awesome work. Looks great.

Hopefully the new look and the approaching RWC will attracting new interesting posters willing to discuss Rugby in a relatively civilised and informed manner.

Nope all good here. You're not using a Huawei are you?

Side note:What's people's beef with huawei phones???

Owned by the Chinese government and the suspicion is they are collecting data for them. No proof has been released, but as so many other countries are going along with it the presumption is evidence is being shared behind closed doors.
