DZComposer Posted August 2, 2010 Author Share Posted August 2, 2010 I would remove all SFO-related cookies and see if that helps. It could be that the cookies you have are corrupted, so having your browser create new ones should do the trick. If you use any cookie-managing software, make sure to tell it to leave SFO cookies alone.I seriously doubt it is something server-side, as I have yet to have a session terminate on me, and I access SFO from several machines.

I'm sorry, I suck at tech stuff. heck, I sometimes just clear my recent history, and select the "delete everything" option there, since I got this place in my bookmarkEDIT: Nevermind. I think for all I know, I might've just missed clicking the "Always Stay Logged In" option, instead clicking just the Log In Icon below it by mistake. It's possible. thanks anyways guys.

CrypticQuery Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Uh...Firefox? Go to "Tools" then "Options". Then go to the "privacy" tab and click "remove individual cookies." From there, you can remove individual ones, or clear the entire list :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Fox 05 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Whenever I make long posts that require the white scroll bar on the right -->,and i start typing, it doesn't want to stay scrolled down. It just scrolls back to the top of the post. whenever i type a letter, it will scroll back down for a microsecond, then scroll back up. If I stop typing, then use the wheel on my mouse to scroll down, then it will stay down, but if I start typing again, it scrolls back up. It's only a minor problem but it's annoying when I trying to quote something that fills up a lot of the space.Am I the only one with this problem? Or is it just my piece of junk computer?

Scott7 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Thats been around as long as i have, good solution is just making the Post box longer by holding down the white bar at the bottum with the mouse and pull it down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Fox 05 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 OS is operating system, either Mac, Windows, Linux, etc.Doh! I use Windows, then. A very buggy Windows to be exact. It tends to freeze a lot, which is why I wouldn't be surprised if the problem is just my computer acting up. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 OK, I can reproduce it in IE8 on Win 7. I'll look into SMF's bug reports and see if there is a fix.For the record, it works fine in Firefox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kursed Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I'm sure it's no trouble. At least from my point of view (being a bit of a computer geek myself )Speaking of bugs is it just me or did a update or something mess up all the color tags for usernames?

DZComposer Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 The name colors were a mod. That mod is failing to install, despite it's declared compatibility with the new version, along with ALL of the anti-spam mods. So, they will likely need to be installed manually. It is Finals week, so that, along with fixing any CSS bugs, will have to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
