Bugged Site [RESOLVED] - About xda-developers.com

--

This should be in About xda forum really, but a mod will move it across anyway.
I had a partial problem like this earlier, but mine just wasn't showing the images for buttons.
It shown the Thanks button okay, but the reply, multi-quote, edit etc. were just showing as writing with no image there.
That was happening on Opera Mini so I switched to Chrome and it was working fine again.

I'M not having these problems

Maybe it's because of too many members accessing the site at the same time....a slow internet connection or browser might add to it....i haven't experienced this yet...

Account not adding subscribed threads

I don't know if this is a problem with the xda app or not. But when I reply to a post or even create one I am not being automatically subscribed to it.
Could a mod or admin of some sorts check out my account. Or have I done something incorrectly.
Thanks guys.

I think you need to activate something in your control panel buddy.

I +1 the op...
Even if I reply to posts on the site, I don't get auto-subscribed...
I have to manually subscribe each post from the app...
And I checked the options yesterday...everything seems to be in place...
(Even I was about to make a thread )

If you set the default subscription setting under Edit Options to something other than Do Not Subscribe then autosubscribe during reply or new thread creation should work.

That's the weird part...
After I had setup weekly notifs, I hadn't touched it since...
But from the last week, all of a sudden, I don't get auto-subscribed...
When I (re)checked the option, it still is set to weekly notifs...I toggled it to "no notifs" and back again, but still no solution...

Same here as OP. About a week ago, auto subscriptions stopped working. All of my settings are normal, and unchanged. I have it set to subscribe with no email.

Thanks. Glad I'm not alone here. Nothing has been changed in settings from me.
Maybe it has something to do with the new XDA 2013 theme?

That was my initial suspicion and the first thing our server guru asked about.
The issue has been raised and if he gets to the bottom of it I'm sure he'll pop his head in here and let us know.
Thanks for the heads up.

I'm assuming this is related to app development?
I think you'd get a better response in the general Q&A forum mate.

I was just about to post a new thread about this. Subscribed threads have always worked for me. I never use the website, always the app. Since like last week, it stopped subscribing me. Someone, fix this!

This happens on my account, ever since I got it (which was a few weeks ago). It does not auto-subscribe to threads I reply to nor to threads I create; and, yes, in the options, it is set to "weekly notifications."
And, when I do subscribe to threads, it does not respect my notification type (instant, daily, weekly). I have it set to weekly, but my Gmail account is getting spammed every day dozens of times (popular thread, haha).

I gave up on it for now and I just use the XDA app with Latest, Participated to see every thread I have been on. I don't have any threads where I just read and never replied once so I don't miss anything this way.

Oh, that's nifty; I hadn't seen that on the app! Thanks!
--UPDATE--
Well, I think it's actually working now. I'm subscribed to this thread and a new one I just made, without doing it manually. Oh, and I realized why it wasn't respecting the notifications: just setting it to "Weekly" in options only do so for new threads, not old ones. Now I changed them all to weekly, *fingers crossed*!

XDA Advanced Search / Participated Threads

XDA Advanced Search (the one for which you click the little gears icon) and related functionality like "find posts by user" and "my participated threads" is offline while we rebuild the cache for the search indexes. They appear to have become corrupted so we are rebuilding them, and these features will remain offline until that has been completed. I would estimate they will be completed in about 10 hours, or midnight UTC.
Apologies for the inconvenience, this happens occasionally and the only way to repair them is to do a rebuild.

I think there are still problems with the cache or something like that?!
All automatic created Links don't work.
For example when I want to look for the originale Thread, somebody quoted, I click on the arrow in the Quote-Box but come to a different page in this Thread.
When I use the search inside a Thread and clicks on a post it is the same way.
In this way the Thread-Search seems very useless to me.

Chrome on my wifi Tab and GSII keeps reloading xda page when I scroll.

Just started happening last night/today, when I log into XDA using chrome on my Galaxy Tab the page keeps reloading when I try to scroll down. I then tried an xda page on my GSII and I get the same result, but on my Win 7 machine chrome on here is fine.
Anyone have any ideas on what is going on?
I am having the same issue on my galaxy s4, no clue as why but very very annoying. Ran across your thread on Google.

I am also having the same problem on my 7 inch Tab 2 using Chrome on the XDA site. Also, sometimes when I'm just kind of idle on a post, I get redirected to a porn app site. I think Boink is the name of it.
Edit: I switched to Opera beta browser, and it fixed the problem. Until I made this post, now it also does the same thing. No problem with my Epic Touch though.
I am having the exact same issue. It is refreshing the whole page automatically, and refreshing when I scroll. Completely unusable!
This is happening on my Samsung Note 8.0. Tried both Chrome and Chrome beta with the same results. Please fix this.
The only way I've found to get around this problem is by using the xda app. I've tried countless browsers with no prevail. Opera beta, and One have given the best results though.

Holy crap!!! I thought I was going crazy!! The night this happened a porn site popped up on my Tab while I was browsing xda. Ever since then the site has been unusable on my mobile devices. (just in case anyone is wondering, I have never visited a porn site on my tab, other family members use it so that is a no no)
I also get this popup when on the xda site using my tab: The page at ad.yield.manager.com says: Install Candy Crush Saga Now!
Can anyone from xda confirm there is an issue?
Edit: I also get a page loading error when clicking on the forum tab using chrome on my tab as well.

Same here, never been to a porn site either. Candy Crush crap pops up on me too, as a matter of fact, it popped up while I was typing this post. Sure would be nice if an xda moderator or admin would take notice to this thread. These problems are totally uncalled for.

Likewise: I've got the same thing with CM10.1 and CM10.2 on my Samsung Note 2 and my Barnes & Noble Nook HD+: when browsing xda forums with chrome it continually reloads, but only when I'm logged in to xda. If I logout, it stops reloading. This has been happening for at least a week or two for me.

I've got a Nook HD+ that has the stock B&N OS on it, and I just thought to test it, and I get the same behaviour: chrome keeps reloading xda forums when I'm logged in, but doesn't when I'm not. I've got a Nexus 7, too. Lemme see if I get the same behavior on it....
Yes! Exactly the same. My Nexus 7 is running cm10.1, and chrome reloads xda forums, every second or so, as long as I'm logged into xda. As soon as I log out, it stops reloading. Just for fun, I tried using the old Android "Browser", and it doesn't do that.
So, it appears to be totally independent of Hardware and OS. There's something incompatible between chrome and xda forums, but only when you're logged in to xda.
PS: not *totally* independent of hardware and OS: I don't get that behavior on any of my three Ubuntu 13.04 machines. Seems to be limited to Android-based OS's.
Nice man! I've tried it on my Galaxy Tab2 7.0, and my Epic 4g Touch. The tablet is the only one that reproduces this problem. On the tab, I've tested a few different but browsers, and so far Chrome, Opera, and Firefox have all produced the same result. Just that Opera gave the fewest issues. I deleted the stock browser, so I haven't tried it yet, and still havent tried it while logged out. The only way I have found to avoid any problems is to use the XDA app, but I'm sure there are a few like me, that have had small problems (like attaching pics,) also. Hopefully xda/the mods will find this issue great enough to fix it.

This is really strange. With my WiFi Galaxy Tab 2 I don't have this issue. Firefox is my "primary" browser. Opera is my secondary browser. No problems with either one and I'm running CM10.2. I wonder if I'm not experiencing this issue because I'm an RC? Are there any other RC's, RD's, etc. experiencing this issue? Sorry I've read the thread, just don't feel like rereading it :silly:

I think it's a Chrome-specific issue... Oh, I see that kthomson205 says it happens on Firefox and Opera, too.
I saw in some other thread where somebody created a new xda profile and they didn't experience the problem with the new profile. So, it may be limited to some very specific set of options in your xda profile.
I just reinstalled chrome on my Tab2. Logged in, scrolled thru several pages. Making this post via Chrome
No issues for me.
EDIT::
Replicated the issue by ticking "Request desktop site" in Chrome's menu. Unticked "Request desktop site" and the reloading stopped.

XDA app login issue

Greetings all,
after a long hiatus away... I'm back lurking around XDA ;-P
For a long while I was accessing XDA via Tapatalk app on android.
One day it stopped working, so I stopped coming... I hate using laptop for getting my Forum fix (although, this is how thread is being created).
Anyhow, I've just purchased a sparkly new mobile phone i.e. Asus Rog Phone 3.
So, I'd thought I'd DL the XDA app and get back in the mix.
Issue is when I try and login via app, Chrome and Firefox pop up on bottom of screen!?
I can however browse the forum via app as a guest.
I'm assuming there is an easy fix for this issue, I just cant seem to find it.
Help appreciated and TIA.

What I learned: the app needs a browser to "Authorize" ....
Anyway my browser did not the trick AND everything was difficult to understand if you don't see anything
of the authorization process.
The browser even did not show any other screen than the log-in screen so there was no clue how to go further.
After this all ... I decided that possibly a second browser might be helpful. (After reading the mentioned links)
My choise became Firefox ..... (rooted device) which i made my default browser.... a simple solution wich worked immediately.
The result is a nice very good smooth functioning app. Thank you.
Made this thread, just to let you know this.
Hoping it might help someone the moment
the app is a wish, which it should be.
