    Default Database Errors and Other Issues

    Yay TPM is back but

    I'm getting frequently Database Errors and also the thread post count seems to be broken.

    Anyone with the same problems as I have?

    I'm getting these stupid errors.

    When I post it says "database error" and then when I try again it says "duplicate post" so it did go through.

    Also, sometimes responses don't show up. So Mikachu I know you replied to my fanfuc idea but I can't see the response.

    I tried to find answers to the bugs from there but I feel as if I was illiterate when I go there.

    Oh and DragoKnight's Youtube videos don't work for/against me! That's useless!

    You have to go to 'show threads from'...

    and choose for instance 'the beginning'.

    I'm experiencing those errors too. Looks like something happens after our posts go through. Maybe an error while updating the post count or something. At least we can still post. I have no idea if/when this is going to be fixed.

    I can likely help if needed. I'm familiar with the ACP and hosting/server related issues.

    Thanks for offering (and welcome!), but only Kevin has access to the server. If he doesn't fix the issue, no one else can.

    Attention, please. Embed videos still work! You just have to embed them in another way.

    Still, I can't edit my signature. It says: 'Invalid file'. And I just got an idea for a new kind of sig.

    Correcting that error may require more than basic Vb knowledge, so trying to correct it might screw up the board again. Just my humble opinion, hopefully everybody understands.

    Yes, the signature editor appears to be broken still. But I can edit signatures via de Admin CP, so if you send me the signature you want, I can copy/paste it and save it for you.

    Hey! It's actually a cinch to fix the signature editor although it's not immediately obvious (that's why my Switch code is above the Avatar--I couldn't figure it out for a while either lol). If you scroll down beneath the textbox for editing signature, it asks you for:

    SIGNATURE PICTURE
    Upload Signature Picture
    Option 1: Enter the URL to an Image on Another Website and here it automatically has https://www filled in. You have to backspace that out because it processes as a broken URL and will deny you the edits. When you backspace it out, it allows you to save your changes.
