Forum Problems

Post by Positive07 »

Some bugs have appeared here in the forums so I wanted to point them out so that the admins knew, and if they know and are fixing them they could tell us.

Basically wiki tags don't work, eg.: [wiki]Image[/wiki]

And you can't put newlines in code blocks, eg.:

Code: Select all

local variable = function () --Newline here
   print("Hey") --Newline here
end

If there are more please point them out
for i, person in ipairs(everybody) do
[tab]if not person.obey then person:setObey(true) end
end

Okay so apparently the (2nd and 3rd) quotes also don't show who i'm quoting. (Neither as "Positive07", with the marks, nor without the double quote marks)

Was there a software update?

Apparently phpBB 3.2.0 broke a lot of bbcodes, in particular ones with an optional argument, let me test: Image, same.
And string.gsub, same

As for newlines in code tags.. I'm not sure why they're not displaying, as far as I can tell that should work.

Code: Select all

some
thing
EDIT: Supposedly it's a theme issue, as the code tags were updated.
EDIT2: I checked, and highlight.js is set to insert br tags, yet it isn't?

Haha so now because zorg quoted me but here is no actual quote I got a hard to erase notification, normally visiting the thread is enough but now I had to click on the notification to trigger it. Glad to know you already have your hands in it bartbes, hope you can work everything out

I don't get why quotes are broken at all. Sighs. They're not even custom tags!

Technically, the quotes work in that they get rendered, it's just that the referred string doesn't show... :brows:

I managed to fix quotes, but it seems backporting the code tags didn't help.

EDIT: Victory!

Oh, so that's what it does. :3

bartbes: There's still a minor thing though; on the "Full editor" page, both the wiki and manual buttons have gained a = symbol, and on insertion, they will be inserted into the opening tag as well... but it doesn't work that way it only works like that with certain wiki links, and similar things happen with the manual: (it's nice that that functionality was added though, since it didn't work like that before)

Version
[wiki=Image]Version_History_(Not)[/wiki]
PiL5.1
[manual=lua]Also imho the manual tag should at least get a tooltip stating that it's the online PiL reference[/manual]
Seems like spaces/underscores (and possibly others) break the tags...

Oh, and the manual tag transforms into "http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#pdf-<value>" and i'm pretty sure that that pdf- part makes the numerical chapter references not work. (e.g. "http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.6")

(Also, just to mention this, i'm pretty sure than previously, quotes didn't default to including links to the user's profile page, nor the upwards referenced post arrow... nor is the notation quote=bartbes post_id=209291 time=1486718906 user_id=147 a thing i've ever seen... but that may just be me.

Nothing I can do about that, blame phpbb.

It was! In phpbb 3.1 it was implemented by having two separate bbcodes, one for [wiki] and one for , with the former listed in the editor, like [url]. In phpbb 3.2 these have to be merged or they'll break. Indeed, now it supports optional values, and that's why there's now an = listed in the editor.

Oh great, it doesn't like parens.
Nor quotes..

That's correct, that's how you reference functions.

EDIT: Btw, it's not PiL, it's the reference manual.

Like I said, new phpbb version. I guess we could suppress it in the theme, but it looks like a decent feature.

EDIT: I've tweaked the allowed characters in [wiki] and [manual] tags, and they should now work without argument if they contain characters that can be in urls. And there's not much more I can do, the character set selection is very very coarse.

I'm pretty sure we're misunderstanding each other; look, here's an example:
lua.math
For me, that does not jump to the correct chapter, and it's because there's a "pdf-" between the # character and the string you write after the = symbol into the opening manual tag.

The correct one should be this: http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.6

(Thanks for the tooltip though! :3)
