kissdbyfire Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I've tried to deal with both, so hopefully mail should now be flowing out appropriately.I just started receiving them again. Cheers, Sparks! :bowdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewan Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 The post count in certains sections of the board keeps jumping around. It was 4 million yesterday in one section now it's back to over 1 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissdbyfire Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 So I keep having this problem with notifications, but a funny thing happened. I got my first notification in forever from someone quoting a post of mine, but it was on a necro'd thread from a few years ago. So it's almost like it will give me a notification on much older posts but not more current ones. If anyone can figure this out, I would really appreciate it. I think being notified of when someone has responded to your post is the most useful function on the board, and it sucks being without it.Test. Did you get a notification for this?

Fragile Bird Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 The video game ad was added just a day or two ago. If you have something like Flashblock, that'll do it. But as I said, the reason ad blockers aren't blocking it is that it's not from an adserver or from a URL that matches the rules adblockers have. :)Ever since that damn video game ad went up I have problems with being on Westeros. My pages freeze, as if the internet was cutting in and out. Everything just stops for a moment, then starts for a split second, then stops, starts, stops, just driving me crazy. But then I go out and use other sites and I have no problem. Except with Outlook, which I have to use.Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fragile Bird Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 No.It's really weird. I had been getting them all of the time, but then all of the sudden they stopped. I didn't change any settings. I'm still getting notifications if someone "likes" my posts, but the only one I've received on a quote has been the one that someone necroed from a few years ago.Nothing?

Winter's Lady Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I haven't been getting notifications when I've been quoted in a while now, although I didn't change any settings. The other notifications for likes and replies to followed topics works just fine. :dunno:Any idea what that is about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 There's no rejected notifications from the forums in the mailserver's queue, save one where someone trying to register entered 'hotnail.com' rather than 'hotmail.com' for their address. So if you're not getting notifications, they're either ending up in the spam folder or the forum's not even bothering to try to send them. If you're getting some and not others, my money's on the latter, so I'll let Ran know to look into things. (But checking spam folders can't hurt.)

Sparks Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 We have board spam folders?Oh, I thought you meant emailed notifications. NEVER MIND, then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissdbyfire Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Test. Did you get a notification for this?Never mind this, guys. I'm just testing if I'm getting quotes notifications. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ran Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 There's an update I need to do to the latest version of IPB when I've a little more time free. We'll see if that fixes the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winter's Lady Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 It sounds like you're having the same problem I'm having. It's good to at least know that I'm no the only one.Now it gets even funnier xDThis morning I got one random notification that I had been quoted in the General ASOIAF forum xDoookay...We'll just have to wait and see if an update can fix it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greywolf2375 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I was just clicking around the bottom menu on the main page - Moderating team/top posters/todays top posters/most liked. Mod Team, Top Posters and Most Liked worked, but the Todays Top didn't - I received the following error:Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 50331648 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /home/sites/westeros.org/forum_web/ironthrone/sources/classes/output/publicOutput.php(1517) : runtime-created function on line 1 Is that me, the board, a hold over from the restricted access we had during the series (limited access to profiles, etc)?

Sparks Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Each individual call to a .php file is allowed to use 48MB of actual RAM. (This is actually more commonly 32MB, but I raised that limit on our box.) Generally, as PHP files are single-shot fire-and-forget things that do something and then return a page, this is more than enough. Especially since all the sorting through massive sets of data is done by the MySQL server, rather than PHP itself.Apparently, "Today's Top" wants rather more RAM than any of the other various queries do. Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kissdbyfire Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Two things. I realised I'm also not receiving notifications of quotes. The other had never happened before until now. When on the tablet I get a black thick-ish (1mm?) horizontal line across the screen. This happens only here, and not on any other pages. No idea what it could mean...

Maia Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I have to say that I have problems viewing the ASOIAF boards on various PCs and have been forced to switch to an iPad almost exclusively.There are just too many advertisements and cinematics loading when I try to browse on PC, which ultimately leads to slowdowns and browser crashes. Does anybody else have these issues?P.S.Ever since that damn video game ad went up I have problems with being on Westeros. Ah, a fellow sufferer, I see. So, it is not just me...

Fragile Bird Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Every time I switch threads, or post, the ad re-loads, and slows everything down. I am turning into Stannis, grinding my teeth constantly. :frown5: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I have to say, Ran, even your sysadmin hates that ad. :crying:I've resorted to mostly reading via Tapatalk because that ad chews CPU, drags down site responsiveness and scrolling, and generally makes me want to turn on ad-blocking. I'm wearing my 'I read this board too' hat here, rather than my sysadmin one, but count me in as one more who'd really like to see that Flash ad go away.(I can read the boards fine on my Mac Pro, mind you, but I should not require a 6-core monster of a machine to read a webpage. On either the Windows or Mac laptops, the board is paaaaaaaaainfully slow due to that ad loading.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
