Forum notification e-mail bug?

FlyingTomahawk

That error message I do get from time to time but it never really bothered me. At least not yet.
Often happens on my Android phone, Chrome browser.

@FlyingTomahawk It's weird. I don't really get any of these problems in FireFox, nor do I get them much in Chrome on my home computer. It's only in Chrome on my work computer... maybe I should get off this site and do some actual work...

@FlyingTomahawk @mattrixk i have never gotten this message in chrome but in safari on my iphone i get it everytime i go back to the forum page since i dont ever close it. But it disappears so i dont have to close it.

Maybe something in the web proxy of your work?

mattrixk

@meleu That's possible. We have a pretty aggressive proxy. Quite frequently it won't even let me access certain cpanels, which makes it difficult to do client work.

Although it doesn't really explain why the site works fine in firefox.

Don't know but maybe it's a compatibility issue with the Web Socket protocol and the browser/proxy - forum uses websocket if it can https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket

You may see the messages occasionally during normal use, if for example leaving the session for a while and coming back etc.

@mattrixk I googled "google chrome aggressive caching" and it returned several entries... :-)

When I try and start a new topic it won't let me add a tag. When I enter a tag it just disappears straight away. I have to go into the code and add a value to the input field and quickly submit the topic before the tag vanishes.

you can report this (and other functionality issues) to https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB (include a screenshot perhaps) - we are running nodebb 1.4.4 (92691782e654ed110836b4aa18b810d56270ca1b) with Mongodb 3.2.12

Make sure your browser is up to date etc.

I used to have lots of trouble with the username autocomplete not working. I'd try to add a users name using the "@username" but the autocomplete would never pop up. This one hasn't been as much of a problem lately though.

username search was broken at some point, and later fixed - this might have affected the autocomplete too. I believe the auto complete for usernames only work for a few characters (if more than X characters typed, the popup will go again).

LoL, hehehe.... yeah we all do.
Spending more time here then I should. :)

Not getting any errors at my work and home PC. Both using Firefox.

Thanks @BuZz. If it does it again next time I start a topic I'll let them know.

/me Scratches head... Leaving the site? I don't understand... (hehe)
