Edit: Tried with Firefox, Chrome, IE and Opera all 4 gives the same message as above. This is on Win7 64bit if that has anything to do with it.

Okay good to know, It's probably not working for anyone at the moment then. Hopefully it will be fixed.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Here working well: Opera 10.60, Win7 32bit

Hm, i've tried Firefox, IE and Chrome all three give the same message. Gonna install Opera and check. But anyway, there must be some kind of problem with the feature, can't be right that it should only work on Opera?
Edit: Nope, not working in Opera either here. Don't suppose there is on option in my User CP here on the board i must enable or something?

We're trying to fix - it has to do with the Twitter API we're using. Thanks for the note!

Ah great, looking forward to when it's fixed =)

[Q] Mutli-Quote , How-To

Ok, I am an idiot.... I have done it in the past, but now I can NOT figure out how to do a multi-quote... Anyone care to help me out? Haha
Just press the Multi-Quote button on each post that you want to add to your reply. Then when you've done all the multi quotes, press reply and the quotes will be in there.
The multi quote button is like a toggle. You can press it for a post and press it again to remove it from a post.
Hope this helps
That still doesn't work for me... Tried on Firefox 4 and IE8.... Clicked on the "Mulit-Quote" box, and then clicked on 'Post Reply' and nothing ported over...
Multiquote is not working for me either. I tried firefox 4 also, IE8 also, and google chrome, press multiquote on two or more posts then press post reply and the message window pops up but the window is empty no quotes. The single quote works fine. I have used multiquote a number of times previously, never a problem. It seems I am not alone in this issue. I cleared browser cache, no change. been going on for a couple of days or so I guess. Gonna try a reboot now. Anyone have any ideas?

I just tested it with your two posts and it's worked fine...not sure why it wouldn't be working for you guys.
Just press multi-quote on each post, then press reply down the bottom.

I can select 2 posts to quote, and click Post Reply, but then I get an empty reply box.

This is a pretty old post. As stated the Developer fixed the browser issue that was occurring at the time.
The internet browser is usually the problem. Try a different browser. If trying to access the site from a mobile device, try from a regular pc as well.
And the site in now www.androidfilehost.com

Problem with XDA site "is blinking"

Hello i have a problem just with xda i've already checked different possibilities.
I have internet 100mb/s and since around a week when i click of shortcut of xda the site loads in a second and when everything is on it blinks
once and loads everything again.
This is annoying because let's say i want to jump to any section it's like the site loads actually twice is already loaded in secons and then blinks and loads again.
Has anyone expirenced something like that before because this thing is happening to me just on xda-developers.
it's weird and annoying!!
Any ideas or suggestions???
Same here, on Windows 7 64bit, latest Google Chrome.

yes i have seen this on my friends computer which is with chrome, Firefox, ie and windows 64 bit.. but on mine it works fine which has both xp and Ubuntu 11.10 both chrome browser is fine... i think its due to any extensions used with your browser.. can you say what extensions you use? and can you remember which extension/ add-on to browser did you add in between this auto refresh after complete loading happens?
and for temporary workaround.. you can use "Esc" button when it is almost loaded... so it wont fully load the page and hence it wont reload the page..

Same issue here but only on Firefox.
I'm on chrome win7 64bit but on win 8 everything is OK.
The weird thing is that i've got this problem since couple days ,everything was OK before.
99% of the time, this is an extension like NoScript...
XDA needs javascript to run, given much of the core functionality of vBulletin uses client-side scripts.
If I use noscript in Firefox, the site will continually refresh until disabled.

well, as long as I don't log in I can surf XDA with noscript with no problem. If I log in it refresh every couple of seconds. It's the only website that behave like that. It's definetely a bug, that I hope someone will take care of.
Edit: refresh disappear if I disable googleapi, but then main menu dropdowns do not work any more.
Change xda theme to previous. It doesn't blink.

Disabled open in a new tab by scroll-wheel click

I don't know why but such useful browser feature doesn't really work on XDA-Developers forums. For example I see a itneresting new on the right side widget. I middle mouse button click it, but it won't open in a new tab, but instead it will open in the current tab just like I would left click it. I can give you numbers of similiar behaviours like that over the xda. That's really annoying.
Why is that happening and are you guys ever going to fix it?

Suggest you try an alternate browser.
Also try a fresh profile in case something in your current profile is the cause.
Its not working for me can you suggest me an other way ?
Does it still work correctly on other sites?
Not a Chrome user so can't really help with it.
General troubleshooting though. Try other sites. Try a clean profile.
Try other tools with the problem site.

It does work correctly on every other website. There's no "clean profile" option in chrome and I have no idea what do you mean by "other tools".
This issue happens with particular stuff, like the widget with the news on the right side of the thread view.

Are you using the new 2015 theme? I think there were one or two links on the old style which were like that, but it should be resolved now on the new style

Just middle button pressed "XDA PORTAL POSTS" news and it still opens up on the same tab. Even on 2015 / 2015 dark theme :/
I'd actually would prefer to use the old theme either way so I could use Dark XDA Stylish theme by @GermainZ as for me it looks much better. Just a presonal preference.

We had additional google analytics code on those links, my guess is that was blocking the open in new tab option. We made this change a long time ago so this must have been long-standing.

contact forms unusable

Hi,
sorry when this may be the wrong forum but I have no idea where else I can write.
I wanted to use the contact form (http://www.xda-developers.com/contact) to report an urgent issue but I cannot use it.
I tried it with firefox and chrome and doing this on several days in the last week but when I click on the "send" button an arrow is displayed which is moving around and keeps moving for hours - nothing more happening.
It doesn't matter which one I try - I tested 2 (urgent and contact the webmaster).
I have no idea how to contact xda and wanted to know if this is a problem only for me or if others having the same problem?
Thanks in advance

I've heard this a lot but I have tested on different browsers and haven't been able to reproduce this. Are you using any browser extensions that might block 3rd party scripts? Can you check the browser console when you try to send the comment to see if there is an error message? You can use the Technical contact form which goes directly to me.
Hi,
Thanks for taking some time on this!
I've tried with FF (x86) and chrome, normal and private mode. I'm on W8.1.
I have only two extension in FF : ghostery and abp.
ABP always off in xda and I deactivate ghostery for testing .
The send button still spinning but nothing else happen. (try every combination)

And as you said, It seem like it's just a bug for two people, the OP and me. No one else came here to report too. So .....?
If I can help ? maybe some log or specific tests/info that help you to reproduce 'our' bug...do not hesitate.

I wanted to report that I have the same issue. I tried the webmaster contact form and I also just get the spinning arrow. I have tried several times over at least a month. I have tried both Firefox and Opera on two different Windows 10 machines, Firefox on a Linux machine and Dolphin Browser on my phone. I have had no luch with any of these.
Is there any other information, or anything else I could try to help debug this issue?

I saw your post in another thread. But no one else is having this issue. It must be related to your system, or internet connection.
Which theme are you using?
Sorry do interrupt you but this thread is about "contact forms unusable"
.
still the same.
Now I wanted to report issues with all XDA dev DB projects (cant upload new screenshots and downloads) but I'm not able to report this because I cannot use the contact forms..
