Additionally, I don't know if you want to do this, but you could change your password to something innocuous and then PQ me the info and I can try logging in and repeating the process.
I didn't read the whole thread, but this is my list of basic issues right now:
~Image library doesn't work. When I try to upload anything, it simply doesn't. I had to use eternal images for my site design.

srhdt, could you please check the problem I have too? I can't get thebackground image I have already uploaded in my image uploader to remain after I have saved the background settings.I hit SAVE but when I deactivate the layout mode, it reverts to background without an image.
I use google chrome.

~I wanted to move pages in my comic (basically moving filler back between chapters, which I do regularly), but the up and down arrows do nothing. When I click "V" the page reloads but the order of comic pages has not changed.
As for the image locker. I tried uploading a .jpg (the wallpaper) and gifs (the nav buttons). The page simply reloads and continures saying "No images yet." I use Windows 7 and Firefox.

Product Placement wrote:That is a good idea and something I'll start working on tonight. It sounds like a formatting nightmare though. :] I think I'll need to make some cookies first.
Another thing you could do is take over my first post in this thread, using your godlike admin powers and post all the reported bugs that have been mentioned so far, thus saving newcomers from treading this entire thread to see if their complaints have already been brought up.
Okay, I have my comic forums back,
but two of my pages still look like this:
http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Greening_Wars/5296414/
http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Greening_Wars/5296415/
following an edit to the author's notes on those pages.
The index seems to have lost track of them somehow;
Any chance I can get some admin-ly or whatever-ly intervention to put them back where they go?

I just checked your profile in the admin and for some reason your birthday field was blank. This probably explains why you weren't able to access 'A' comics. I just manually changed your birthday to 1-1-1955, so try it now.

The issue happens in both my comics (Brave Resistance and Without Moonlight).
The background image is for Brave Resistance, and it is this:

I will PQ you with my password but I hope that when I change it, the site won't go berzerk over it…
I am using both google chrome and firefox, and the issue persists. Even the co-author Pit Face tried it from HER computer in America (I'm in Greece) and the issue still remained.
Please fix it… if you can, for both of my comics (in Without Moonlight I can't format navigator images)
I was doing a little experimentation with the signup section of this site and found out that it's impossible to create a username that's the same letters but with varying upper- and lowercase letters. Thus you can't have Product Placement, Product placement, product placement or anything like that.
This is a good thing, since I recall there being an issue with the beta site, where this very same thing was possible.
But that just makes me wonder even more about the need for a case sensitive username bar. If you were one of those who made usernames that consisted of a combination of upper/lowercase letters, you have to punch it in just right. In the old duck, that wasn't necessary.
For those people posting batches of code, please tell us what it is you're trying to do when you get that code! Thanks. :]

OK I am formatting the big list of stuff in this thread into PP's first post now, it should be 'current' up to this point.
Product Placement wrote:That was an error, that should be fixed. Usernames shouldn't be case sensitive now (but multiples when signing up should still be prevented.)

Scorpion451 wrote:We figured out what the issue was here. I don't know if you intentionally set it, or if maybe the system did it, but the live post date was set to December 2011, meaning it was in the future. There's an issue with the new site where you can't actually view pages that haven't gone live yet, which is why you saw that error. We just set the first link above to today's date, and now it's displaying when you click on it. The reason the 2nd link is still an error is because the live date is still set to the future, so if you just change the live date to today's date, it should work.

Salsa wrote:Just so you know, when I went to respond to this it looks like the quoting is what truncated it. No one was censoring you except the stupid text editor coding. If you go back and mess with editing it you can probably get it to display properly.
Bull.
That is bull
Anyway, I know that Oz and I tested it on the browsers we have, but you're right in that I can't speak for how extensively they did browser testing at Wowio. I know they've looked at a few different ones based on things they've said to Oz and I, but I wasn't trying to represent the programmers in any way.

Check out the comic and let me know. http://www.drunkduck.com/brave_resistance
What I did was go to the image locker and right-click 'save link address' for that link, then went to the layout mode for that comic, pasted the link into the background, clicked another field to have the background show up instantaneously, hit save, and deactivated layout mode. Dunno what to tell you…
Tantz Aerine wrote:It might just be the settings on your browser. Do you have java disabled or something? Make sure you're using the latest version of Chome for best results right now.
srhdt thank you very much.It worked and it is now beautiful.
I don't know what to tell you either because those steps you mentioned were the exact steps I was doing too. Shall I assume then that I still can't do it myself? :( (I dare not touch it now)
To all those reporting being unable to upload images into the image locker
We've discovered a weird bug where trying to upload images in Firefox isn't working. It does work in Chrome however. We're investigating why this is happening, but in the meantime, this is probably why image uploading isn't working for you.
