Lilith 08-14-2004 09:54 AM

Not sure if that's gonna happen PF...er I mean DG :p

dreamgurl 08-14-2004 10:02 AM

I couldn't resist. lol Thanks for the link though it does make it alot easier for me at least.

Lilith 08-14-2004 10:08 AM

Yes but did it work for you???

PantyFanatic 08-14-2004 10:59 AM

The link is connecting OK and seems to be working.
I’m getting a repeated note about it being an ‘unregistered copy, evaluation only’.

Now I want to be looking at the BOTTOM of the index page for an addition. :D

That’s NOT funny. :mad:

The trade offs of that possibility, a really shitty search capability, and some other meaningful things, for a new paint job is starting to become a true question. :cool:

kathy1 08-14-2004 11:38 AM

i'm getting the same message as PF....what does that mean exactly?.....and is what i say being seen by anybody when it says that?

cowgirltease 08-14-2004 11:48 AM

I got that message too. I seen PF in there and tried to say hi. I dunno if he was ignoring me or just couldn't see me. :(

ROFL @ the bald cap crack!



I can't see the chat link . . . is it just on the main page or should I have more coffee?

dreamgurl 08-14-2004 12:02 PM

Steph I learned from the best. And i'm getting the same message when i tried a little while ago

More coffee Evilone! Try the bright orange bar across the very top goofy.:rolleyes:

Lilith 08-14-2004 12:10 PM

If you use the chat link at the top you will get an error message each time you hit enter right now. I know it is annoying as hell but you are the only one who can see it. I have contacted the owners to see what they can do. Until then, using the old chat link does not give you the same message. Sorry for the inconvenience.

PF at this point I'm just glad to have a chat link...to me it's much more crucial than the shout box.

Lilith 08-14-2004 12:13 PM

Everyone can see what you type but they can not see the error message you are getting.

Make sure that you have the style set to Pixies Place forums vbulletin 3 style.

not know what I'm talking about.It's on TV,all the time,here. Irish :jester:

Lilith 08-14-2004 12:20 PM

Also you will need to type your nick in the box that says "Enter Nick" it does not auto fill now.

Steph 08-14-2004 12:36 PM

There we go, I have the right style set now. Cool!

rockintime 08-14-2004 03:50 PM

Lilith...just tried it (1:45 pm PDT) and it worked FINE....no error message, no problems. Just make sure to only click the chat link ONCE...double clicking it loads it twice.

THANKS for getting this back. :)

Sharni 08-14-2004 04:11 PM

It was the first thing i noticed *LOL*

Romial 08-14-2004 04:44 PM

Any chance you can make it just a little less smaller? It stretches out my page. :(

Romial, I'm sorry I don't understand what you are asking. What is too small? and how does something being small "stretch" your page?

dreamgurl 08-14-2004 05:36 PM

Irish we have Six Flags here in Ohio and they run the ads nonstop. Used to find them cute now they annoy me lol. Woohoo it's working again. thanks to the magical little elves who fixed it.

sodaklostsoul 08-14-2004 06:36 PM

Just checked and I"m still getting the error message. I have the vbulletin 3 style set too.

Lilith 08-14-2004 07:46 PM

Yes if you enter through the new link there is an error message visble only to you.

MilkToast 08-15-2004 12:16 AM

worked for me... on the second try, my firewall decided to block in on the first attempt...

Actually the trade off is that malicious code and can not be run against the bulletin board by the average (or not so average, but non-authorized) poster and cause the whole thing to crash the database. It was getting common on sites that use the older version of Vbulletin. That is what in most cases forced the upgrade to the newer version. I'll take no chat and/or shoutbox instead of no Pixies at all.

denny 08-15-2004 03:14 AM

It works but I still can't get the hang of registering my Nick.

So the terrorists win here too.
Lock it down and to where nothing works and we can just post to the Smut Games.

Looks like this new Homeland Security version of Vbulletin is working well.

Lilith 08-15-2004 08:53 AM

Frankly I like this search much better....allows me to search exactly the area I am interested in or a broader one by nick or by keyword same as before. What exactly is the problem? If it's the last 500 posts on a nick search, there are ways around that but you have to look in each forum. It's hard on the database and slows shit down (if it were busy and peeps were all using it) so now you have to seriously want the info. Most don't, for those who do, there's loopholes.

I am sure that chat will be corrected very soon. If the error is bothersome (and it was to me) please use the old link until things are sorted. Thanks!

Irish 08-15-2004 08:57 AM

P.F.---Tell them that you want your money back! Irish :rolleyes:

But wasn't part of the deal that you leave the site?

LixyChick 08-16-2004 09:50 AM

I'm in now Lil...and I forgot to check the date of when you made this thread so I'm prolly late in helping you to know about any problems. I had no problem at all...cept that Jupe won't keep his grubby paws off me while I am in here alone with him!

*bites Jupe's paw and wads up a spit ball to fling at his balls*

YIKES! Someone get in here and save me!!!

LixyChick 08-16-2004 09:52 AM

Hey...(being lazy and stupid again)...does it tell you who is in chat on the main page like it did in the old venue?

I'd better go look before I get spanked. Oh...wait! What am I saying?

*bends over and bares hiney*

Lilith 08-16-2004 05:55 PM

No Lixy that was special code Kim had added to the old software. Sorry.

scotzoidman 08-16-2004 11:42 PM

NP, that old box was usually about 2 hours behind anyway

LixyChick 08-17-2004 10:25 AM

I think I understand what Romial was talking about now Lil. He said his page is now stretched...and I have the same thing. It's only been since you've added the chat link.

Now let's see if I can explain this and make it understandable...

I'm pretty sure I have a 15" monitor...but I am positive it's no more than 17" (sorry...just too comfy to go get a tape measure and I can't recall the dimensions from when we bought it). Anyway...there have been times...in certain threads...when the extremely large HTML codes were used to make a humongous statement and it stretched out the page so that you'd have to use the scroll bar at the bottom to read all the way across the page and then scroll it back to get to the beginning of the sentence again. Ya know (I don't know if it has a special putereze word for it), it's like the bar at the right side of pages were you scroll up and down...only it's now on the bottom of my monitor too, just above my tool bar, so that I can scroll the page to read the last two or three words in a sentence or thought. If the sentence or thought is too long, a few words now get lost all the way to the right of my screen and I have to use the scroll thingy to move the page over to read the last bits. It's not like this on every thread if it's kept short and sweet and doesn't have too many dots like this.............................................. .........................................
or whatever else might be/is causing it. And, it's not a long way to scroll to see it all...maybe only a half inch or so...compared to if you have a full page in view and you have to scroll up and down and it's a mile long one way or the other.

But, I think his point is...now that the CHAT thing is in place and we have to type in our nic as opposed to it just recognizing us...it has stretched out our page on all the threads so that some words have to be scrolled to view an entire thought.

MAKE SENSE? It sure did in my head, before I started typing it and then reread it! Lemme know iffin you can make heads or tails of it...k?

I don't think it's something we couldn't get used to. It's just never happened before unless I've read a thread that took up too much HTML space and I had to scroll over to read an entire thought.

Now...the best question of all! Are me and Romial the only ones having this happening to us? I have to know! Only problem is...I worded it as best I can I don't don't know how to ask any better or how I can fix it on my own if it's only him and I. Should I start a thread about it and confuse the hell out of the rest of the clan? LOL!

HELP!

Irish 08-17-2004 10:44 AM

Lixy---It doesn't happen to me!Of course,I've never been in chat,so that might have something,to do with it! Irish :jester:

Steph 08-17-2004 11:15 AM

My page has a little "stretch", too. It wasn't like that on other settings.
