Site updates

I am not aware of that.
Can you give more details?

That I've noticed:
-
Most of the media section isn't working. Pictures seems OK, but Clips, Press and Le Chevalier all give Error 404.
-
The index pages for certain sections have disappeared (e.g. the individual series pages and the fanzine index). These contained all sorts of information and were enormously helpful for navigating the site. Now, all you get is a list of attached documents with no indication as to what's in them. That's a real pain if you're looking for a particular article in The Quest or whatever.
-
I also recall there being some featured articles, including one about the KMVR pilot, under the Home menu. That seems to have been removed (I assume deliberately) - can it be found elsewhere on the site? I couldn't see it anywhere.
-
-
The index pages for sections should now be available. I accidentally disabled it.
Unfortunately, it looks like the links within each section have not been translated to the new link system. I'm slowly making my way through each category and repairing the links.
Doubtless there are lots of other bugs. This upgrade was always going to be problematic

This section is still missing its old index page. The series pages are back, but seemingly not in their entirety - is there some kind of size limit? Series 2, 5 and 8 are all cut off mid-sentence, and I'm sure there used to be more on the Series 7 page (which also has a load of strikethroughs at the bottom for no apparent reason).
Must be quite a pain fixing all those links manually.
Let me know if there's anything I can do to help. -
hm, that's quite worrying.
The actual article does indeed stop midway; It's not a graphical error.
Fortunately, I obviously still have the old site, so retrieving it shouldn't be too big of an annoyance.
-
I've fixed those series pages.
I'm not sure what used to be on the fanzine page. Are you sure there was a dedicated page there, and it didn't just point straight to the eye shield?

Hmm; they still look the same to me, even after refreshing? (The random strikethroughs are gone from the Series 7 page, but that's all that seems to have changed.)

Ah, my mistake - the stuff I was thinking of is actually on the 'Club' page, not a section index! But it does need fixing anyway, as it's been cut short like the series pages.
-
huh
Odd. Even if I replace the text, it erases the change when I save it. More investigation required, I think.
-
Oh dear.
It looks like the newer version of Joomla now limits the size of a category description to 5120 characters.
It's not clear whether the developers have any intention of changing this or not.
And of course, Joomla doesn't warn you if you've exceeded the character limit and no mention of this limit is made within the upgrade process <sigh>.
I'll need to see if I can find some answers
-
Uhm, hi. There ian't a working prominent link to IKM anywhere in the menus or the homepage. It should be somewhere - as it's got the links to the Lexicon and Chat in it!
-
AFAIK, nothing has changed with respect to IKM links
-
I'll add it to the list.

What hurts the most is that nobody has commented on the little helmets of justice in the forums list.
They took 5 hours to make

They are definitely the best thing about the new-look forum. (I also like the 'post a reply' box not being annoyingly glitchy any more.)
