Bug reports

Michael, the site is not completely set up yet - I still have a couple of days until the end of the month!. However, I can tell you that it's more than a single-step process and your ChocolateLife.com login does not carry over. All Classifieds now have to fit within a listing package. When you click on submit listing you need to select a package (if you don't already have an account you will be asked to create one).

WANTED listings (either wanted to buy or jobs) are still free. SELL listings are either $5 (30 days) or $10 (60 days) each.

One of the issues with the classifieds on the old site is that they never aged off. No-one ever deleted them and it was a huge administrative burden for me to do it because I had no way of knowing if the classified was still active or not. In thinking about the problem I decided to set up a site with software that could handle classifieds where the listings could age off (disappear) after a certain length of time. There are increased cost for running two different sites and I had to do something to cover those additional costs.

What is the date on the first comment displayed for you? For me it's 12/01/2014 - posted by me. I will look into the search thing.

Hi Clay,

On Thechocolatelife.info I am unable to post a classified.  Is the functionality just not done yet?  I press submit listing and nothing happends.

Thanks!

Thanks for looking into this Clay. The discussion that I first noticed this was this one:

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/clay/group_discuss/1068/barbecue-grill-convert-to-roaster

But the issue is much more apparent on a thread with more comments, like this one:

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/clay/group_discuss/666/shared-journey

It would be very awkward to ready that discussion start-to-finish with the current sorting.

On a separate issue, the search doesn't seem to search the group discussions. I tried to search for 'shared journey' but it didn't find the thread linked above.

Ben -

The answer is I think yes on all these questions. I have been working on the sort order of comments specifically. Some things are set globally and there are some new features that were just added that changed the way some things worked. For the group discussions could you post the URL of a page where the sort order is wrong?

The "best" way to handle the comment update is for adding a comment to by synonymous with updating the original post, which are now different things. That's being worked on by the developers.

Hi Clay. In the group discussions, is it possible to have comments displayed chronologically top-to-bottom like they are in the forums? Currently, they're showing in reverse order which makes it difficult to read an entire conversation.

Also, is it possible to have the group discussion list be ordered by the date of the last comment, instead of the creation date (again, like the forums)? 

Thanks,
Ben

Piotr -

You are the second person to point this out to me. Let me ask the developers what is going on. Thanks for posting the screen shot. I will get back to you ASAP. I will set the quota to something usable in the meantime.

Dear Clay,

In the e-mail you ask us to choose a quota. In my Profile tab there is no such option. Did I miss something?

@eg - thanks for letting me know about the menu color selection on mobile devices. I will look into it ASAP. Bigger fish to fry first. Now that lots of people are hitting the site I need to figure out how to solve the poor database performance.

This is now fixed - it was a configuration option I overlooked, so my bad. You have the option to embed media - images and videos! - you have already uploaded or you can upload an image from your local computer. While it adds another step, uploading it to your image gallery and adding a title and description first means that members can see it in other contexts, which would be good, but is not necessary. Please note that you have to specify an image size ... and that is the image size in the post and it does not appear as if it can be edited after the fact. You'd have to delete and re-upload.

Thomas -

I doubt that it has anything to do with you. I have been in touch with the Jamroom dev team and we are working on a fix. I will let you know when this is done - obviously it's not workable in the long run (or even the short run).

How do you post an image? I can right-click and select insert image, but the image never displayed based on the source that I enter. It's not intutive on how to insert the image. I'm sure it is something I am doing wrong.

Looking forward to exploring the new site. Just a quick FYI, the menus on mobile view are black on charcoal - almost impossible to read.

Is something not working the way you think it should ...

or not working at all? This is the place to post them so they can be looked into and taken care of.
