They used to confirm this by having an asterisk next to your name, but they dropped that. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to view a thread in order to reply, but threads with multiple replies still have 0 views. I believe that only updates periodically rather than in realtime. If there's a day old thread with the issue, yeah, that's a problem. IF it's something posted in the last hour or two, probably not strange. I'd have to check to find out what exactly the interval is. Might be hourly, might be every 3 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be hourly, might be every 3 hours. Looking at the general forum for the books, it's happening for threads several days old as well, for example a thread posted on wednesday (with multiple replies having been posted there on wednesday as well), like this one.

Le Cygne Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) I am having trouble putting someone on ignore because there are two identical user names, and the software picks the user with 0 posts. I'll sent the specific info via a report, I think if you just renamed (or deleted) the user with 0 posts, then we could ignore the active user. Thanks. (Also there's still the bug where you can't ignore someone with a comma in the user name, just thought I'd mention that...)

Mladen Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 This entire week I want to post this... @Sparks, @Ran... Great job this week. I can't remember when it was so easy browsing the forum in spring show madness. Whatever you have done, it is working perfectly... Kudos...

Harry Baratheon Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Is there no search option on this forum? I looked around, and in the announcements forum the only thing I can find in relation to search is an old post saying Search was turned back on.

RumHam Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 This is a minor thing that I doubt is bothering anyone, but I noticed that some threads have multiple replies but somehow zero views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teng Ai Hui Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I want to change my signature but can't figure out how to do it. Can someone please write some instructions? Sorry in advance if this is a ID10T error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry in advance if this is a ID10T error. That's not a 'Board Issue' per se—i.e., something not working right/broken on the board itself—so probably could've gone in a separate thread in the forum. That said, changing your signature is fairly straightforward. Just go to the Account Settings page (which is also available from the little dropdown that pops off your name, from the top of the board), and select Signature from the list on the left-hand side. Et voila, an editor to change your signature! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teng Ai Hui Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Ok. I changed it. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just logged out while I was trying to sent an answer and lost everything. If it's happening to you multiple times a day, there there is a known bug with Invision (the forum software we use): if you have an old Invision login cookie around and a new one, you'll potentially get logged out during certain operations. I had blocked that bug before by having Varnish eat old Invision login cookies (so even if you had one, the board never saw it), but with our move to nginx I couldn't do quite the same filtering. That might be the cause. The fix is just to clear your westeros.org cookies out, and then log back in again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCon's Red Beard Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I can't upload gif avatars. As you can imagine, for me, this is a tragedy. A tragedy of the Doom of Valyria proportions. I tried first uploading. Said not.(message says: "sorry we could not find that!") I tried with an url. Said not again (message says: "a configuration or server error has occurred"). Like, it's not enough HBO cut Jon? Now the board too? T___T This is discrimination! Is because he's a redhead, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhaenys_Targaryen Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 When I click on the notification button (the bell on the top of the page in the webbrowser), it usually shows my notifications. But when I try to look on mobile, it usually immediately collapses (leaving only the "show all my notifications" part of the window visible). This rarely happens on my laptop (though it has occured there before as well). This issue has been occuring for the last few days now.
