[/quote] You received a PM from it, therefore it considers it a conversation. You can adjust what notifications result in a simple notification, a PM, a email, or nothing at all on the link on the bottom of that message. As for everything else, I'm working on it.

Vivi Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 CleanCut should be good now. It's going to take some time for me to fix the TE skin. It may be unusable for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TypoNinja Posted June 6, 2010 Report Share Posted June 6, 2010 Not entirely sure if this is a bug or not, I may just fail at locating the correct options, but I have looked so here goes. I recently got an email notification for someone quoting my post, I turn all email notifications off expect for private messages (and admin mails of course) so this kind of surprised me. I hit my preferences and as near as I can tell I should not receive email notifications for someone quoting me. This is the first time I've received an email notification for quoted posts (hell I didn't even know it was an option.) Is this a bug or is there a toggle I've missed somewhere?

[/quote] This doesn't appear to be a bug because I got these type of notifications as well on another site that uses IP.Board 3.1. I believe it is controlled by an admin setting. If possible can the setting be changed so the members can decide if they want to receive them by email from their user control panel? I mean, the setting exists in there, but it's just grayed out. =\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TypoNinja Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 (edited) Well I just got another one when you quoted me, doubled checked my pref's in http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=notifications it's definitely disabled. Is there another setting I'm missing? Edit for clarity: There is actually a setting "Notify me when someone quotes my posts" Not only is it unchecked, the box is grayed out and I couldn't enable it even if I wanted to (Please note, I don't ) Edited June 7, 2010 by TypoNinja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chee Auer Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) I know I'm not the only one with this issue, but I think I'm the first to encounter in on Firefox 3.6.3, and also to have it happen sporadically; cookies and cache have been cleared multiple times (and the cache is auto-wiped every time I close FF) However, at seemingly random intervals (does not correlate with browser closing, computer shut-downs or anything else I can think of), despite the "Remember Me" box being ticked, I occasionally have to re-log myself in again. For me, this is just inconvenient (courtesy of FF's ability to remember passwords), but it would be frustrating for others. And I also don't like things that don't work the way they're intended to work (OCD anyone?) I also tick the "Sign Me In Anonymously" box, if that helps Edited June 15, 2010 by Chee Auer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sword of Estel Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 I would check with the IT department at your Uni and check in with your parent's ISP to see if both operate with dynamic IPs and ask if there is any option to secure a stable IP.

[/quote] I'm pretty sure you just hit the nail on the head, I am on a dynamic ip, so that is most likely the problem. I'm sure sky charge to have a static ip here, so I will just suffer having to re-log back in every once and a while. It's not a major issue I was just wondering. P.S I'm surprised that many others that are sky users have not noticed this or reported this before, as dynamic ip's are more frequent to have than static ip's.

Sargun II Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 If you try to link to a youtube video it puts a [media] [/media] tag around it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVpv8-5XWOI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivi Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 That tag is meant to be used for embedding videos, MP3s, Flash objects, and other things. It has been disabled and thus won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargun II Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) What I mean is that if I try to post a youtube link, the [media] tag automatically shows up. I don't put it there. If I try to erase it, it comes back. also, it makes the link unclickable so you have to copy/paste and with the [media] tags around it it makes it harder to do so Edited June 19, 2010 by Sargun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
