Lots of avatars are the same including my own has changed.
I’m not seeing the image either.
Still the same on iOS (Safari) - Chrome on Windows seems to work.
Seems good for me now with all photos loading promptly. Other members of our tech team are still having some issues, so just give it a bit of time I think.
Hi folks — this latest hiccup is on me. I have been traveling and handling some offline matters (nothing bad, just busy), so I missed something important. I am sorry.
The issue came from our CDN. We use KeyCDN, which speeds up and protects Forumosa by storing our content on servers around the world and delivering it from the one closest to each of you.
I had set up two “zones” in KeyCDN — one for the written forum content (text) and another for uploaded files (images and attachments). When payments lapsed, I mistakenly renewed only one of the two zones. Because KeyCDN’s support team is twelve time zones away, the delay in sorting it out caused the forum to stall for a bit.
This has happened before. I am in touch with @tempogain and will be working with him on how to simplify this setup and (hopefully) avoid a repeat. My apologies to TempoGain as well for leaving him hanging while I slowly worked through the issue ![]()
That is why:
- the site went down, and
- it took a little while to bring it back.
Thanks again for sticking around while we got things back up and running.
I’m guilty of forgetting. But when my memory works, I try to resize my pics way smaller for this exact bandwidth issue. Those gb add up! We should probably all try to do the same, I’m going to try and remember. Forumosa is already pretty good about uploading and sharing! Far more than most websites.
I think everyone survived, so all good. ![]()
Clear your cache?
We elevated the visibility of several key features popular with users
There have been some changes recently, and it appears that one (or more) of these changes caused an issue with the composing box.
It now to occupies the entire screen when replying to a post on a mobile device. It used to take only half, which was a much better experience.
Any way to get it back?
I see. I’ll have to take a look at it!
It’s an intentional change
Our previous solution to address similar issues doesn’t work anymore unfortunately
Ah yes. Thanks for that I can now post again!
This is really annoying to me. Also the double spacing…. It works to post but definitely a turn to the worse ![]()
That sucks!
Yeah I’m not a fan either. My initial attempt to modify it wasn’t successful and I haven’t gotten advice on the Discourse site as of yet. We may have to live with it.
Maybe time to revive that idea…? ![]()
I have noticed that quoting is difficult now. Not sure of the cause but majority of the time I long-press (mobile here) to select text for quoting in a post and nothing happens, but only within the body of an existing post, anywhere else (e.g. the word “only” there) and the long press works fine.
I’d assume CSS shenanigans, (because that’s always true, lol), but it’s not consistent. ![]()
