The forums don't actually have a notification system in place, but one is aiming to be added in the next update.

i believe the logging out is on purpose and happens when you close the browser, same thing happens with mine (im on chrome) a "remember me" checkbox when you log in would be nice!

@4FFLU3NZ4: huh. when I made a post on my journal about it, the owner was confused about it... but a "remember me" option would be amazing! :3

new bug just dropped. IF I edit a post after seeing the preview and before posting it it just disappears

The trouble is that there are three edit buttons: one at the top in the post, and two on the left in the larger pane, and they don't link to the same thing ('/edit' v. '/reedit'). I've had it happen to me both in general replies and thread OPs: the former is meant for existing posts, while the latter is specifically editing the preview. The post is technically published, but it's rendered invisible—contact @BadKarma with links to the affected threads and he can fix 'em.

When in doubt, Always Lean Left:

I will get that looked into and the fix into the next update.

There is supposed to be a timeout, but it's not supposed to be that short of a time. I'll look into what's going on. I'm not having the same issues, however, which is why I was confused.

By chance, is your browser set to delete cookies upon closing?

New Bug: If I'm editing a reply and someone else posts before I finish, my post ID is reserved and I pre-empt their response. :^)

**New Bug:** If I'm [editing a reply](https://www.side7.com/forums/thread/723/1#6393) and someone else posts before I finish, my post ID is reserved and I pre-empt their response. :^)

That's because when the post is originally saved, it's given its ID at that point. The point at which it is published is a separate point in time, but is not recorded. So, this is by current design. It's a race condition that I didn't think would be a big issue. Apparently it might be one, after all.

The confusing buttons above the post have been removed in v5.17.

  • Are you using HTML links? If so, that's an unintended bug that is fixed in the upcoming update.

  • The log out is a confusing one for me, as I'm having issues recreating it. Do you have your browser set to delete cookies upon closing?

  • The pagination issue is fixed in the next update.

  • Forums notifications have been implemented in the next update. :)

There's a lot of stuff coming in the next update. (v5.17)

All of these should be fixed now. v5.17 is live.
