Site Update February 2020 - What has changed

Hello @Mongobongo, thanks for report!

When something doesn’t work as it should?

Generally it is best to verify where is the issue. Try in following order:

  • Log out, clear browser cookies and cached files, reload the site and log back in. Mobile browsers offer “hard reload” for this.
  • Use new Private window / Incognito window in browser (that will eliminate cookie problem).
  • Restart the browser (app).
  • Restart your operating system (computer / mobile)
  • Update the browser software / app to latest version from official site your App store.
  • Install and check the problem with different browser if possible (on mobile there are Safari or Chrome).
  • If the issue persists, please send me screenshot of the bug, your browser version and device type so I can try to replicate the issue and report this bug to developers.

I know it is a hassle to be a tester :nerd_face:.

This time I’ve prepared our platform for regular software updates from original repository, that should happen 1-2 times a month so there is chance that if this is real issue for other users it will be fixed with next updates.

I’ll check that. Piwik is my personal stats application where I can see and analyze traffic coming to OG. It is harmless, but there could be some issues with Browser Content Policy… Thanks for pointing that…

Good point. Current zoom works differently. Before there were two levels of zoom. First “fit to screen” and second “actual pixels”. Now there is only first level of zoom. If you can zoom into actual pixels depends on the device you are using. I can zoom on iPad just fine using gesture. In Chrome browser on PC I can click download in the bottom to open it in image viewer or click with right button and show the photo in new tab then the browser allows me to see the actual pixels.

Thanks for noticing, that is just “banner topic”. General welcome announcement for all users… I’ll change it… (of course you are logged in otherwise you couldn’t post :slight_smile: )

Where is the logout button?

Logout is the last option when you click your avatar in top left corner.

It seems like avatars are regenerating very slowly… It is reprocessing all the posts on the site in the background at pace that is easy on the server. Current projections is that it will process all posts including avatars in 3-4 days. If you want your avatar now, you can re-upload it. But it is not needed.
