HA! And his example is a trout!!!
Hmm, I hit the ārebuild HTMLā button on your post and it shows up now.
One of the things that could be better is the header! Unless more stuff at work explodes, Iām hoping to get the differences in appearance between the main site and the forums normalized in some fashion tomorrow :silly:
Haha!
It looks pretty but itās confusing the heck out of me. Iām sure Iāll get used to it and love it. Now to figure out how to reply to 3 month old private messagesā¦
As along as weāre on the topic of things working, I keep getting some server error (500), whatever that isā¦
I just did a server restart, but something tells me it is related to a ādisk spaceā issue I saw an error about. Your missing avatar image seems to confirm that has something to do with all this.
Welcome! I would just read the old message of vBkF and reply here.
It shouldnāt, since the import script didnāt attempt to move avatars. But apparently almost every time we rebuild the container, it keeps the old one around, and those were 1.6GB each. So I delete a bunch of those and reclaimed some space.
The 500
errors were due to database timeouts, last time I checked yesterday afternoon. I restart fixes things temporarily, but it could be that the image thing was related to that. Weāll see.
I went ahead and posted a question on the Discourse forums: https://meta.discourse.org/t/constant-500-internal-server-errors/21859
Letās see what suggestions they have
Once the server issues are fixed, this is extremely cool: http://eviltrout.com/2014/01/22/embedding-discourse.html
I will slowly start replacing all of the Disqus comments with the embeddable discourse comments instead. This way we will have one set of ācommentsā as opposed to the two we have today - Disqus and Discourse (and vBulletin).
Well, unless Iām mistaken, swapping back to the old emojis might have fixed thingsā¦ So thereās that.
ā¦ I guess the other posts above would have to be rebuilt to fix them?
[edit] Yup, I rebuilt the first one and that cleaned it up [/edit]
You can just refresh your cache, too, I believe. The rendered HTML is just an img
tag, and by restoring the old emoji set the formerly broken hamburger image links are now unbroken.
They werenāt/arenāt broken links. It was the :hambĆ¼rger: text. I only rebuilt one, you can probably see the others above yourself.
Oh, I suppose that if you used a non-working emoji during few-day window when we switched to the new/old kF smiles, then itād be broken now. But it wouldnāt have shown up when you posted it, either.
If you used one of the Discourse emojis before I added the old smilies, and I didnāt rebuild your post then, then the emoji will now show up again, like in this thread: Descender-aware link underlines
We just got our first set of spammers earlier today! If that isnāt a sign that things are working well, I donāt know what else is haha!
I spent some tweaking the various styles and other things to make the place fit better with the main site. The most noticeable thing is that the header is back
Sooooo now Discourse has official support for custom smilies. I tried adding our kF ones back, but it crashed/stopped accepting them after adding about 6 of them. So enjoy those until that fixes itself. :sure:
I need that AA battery smiley back!
Hmm. Does it mean that at this rate, in about 4 years, weāll have all of our smilies appearing properly?
On a separate note, moving the forums to a server with more RAM seems to have slowed down the initial load time further. Iāve gone ahead and posted a question about that here: https://meta.discourse.org/t/executing-action-latest-taking-a-long-time/24256
