Hello, is there an issue regarding posting Photos ? My Photo(s) will not load. Thanks.

HARDBALL

I have found that when they don’t load it’s because the photo is too large. Used to be we got the red error code saying image too large, now the IMG box just stays blank. You probably just need resize a bit lower.

Sparks response to pictures with this new BF version below. For some reason I’ve been able to post up to 1.03mb before, now I can only post 500kb. However, I am/can directly post, you may still need to use a image hosting service.

The size limits on photos has not changed at all. Max attachment size is 1mb, 1600x1600

No problem. Go to your sales thread, press or tap your member name, not your picture avatar. Shows 123 +.

Thanks for the suggestion but that doesn't work for me.

I'm showing zero feedback for EVERYONE under the avatar, not just me.

When I click on the ZERO under my avatar, it says that "There is no feedback to show" for me but it does show the feedback that I've left for others.

I can find both the feedback left for me and by me for others by going to my profile either by clicking on my avatar name or via account details and then clicking on "feedback stats" but they do not show directly under my (or anyone else's) avatar anymore.

Just a ZERO. A buyer of mine who wanted to leave feedback for me found the same. We are holding off entering any new feedback until this problem is fixed.

Is no one else seeing this?

This is what I see when I go to https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/sold-a-mixed-bag-of-fixed-blades.1787595/post-20484084

What browser are you using, on what platform

I'm still not getting any alerts sent to my AOL email account. They use to work super.

Still not seeing what you guys are seeing.

Will take a look on Chrome to see what I see there.

Tried Chrome and see the same thing as w/Brave.

Don't know how to post a copy of a screenshot here, so I just took a photo of it and this is what I see:

BTW: This problem only started yesterday. Could see what you guys are still seeing before that but no more.

Two quick questions
1. Is there a compact view option?
2. Is there a good android app for viewing?

Here’s 2 screenshots of what I see compared to your photo of what you see. I included the other member in your thread so you can see it shows his feedback score too.


Maybe try going into your profile and unblock the public access to it and then refresh your screen, and then look to see if you can then see if your feedback is displayed back again. You can always go back and reblock access again, this just being a quick check it out test. Just my guess, but I’m sure it has to do with the transfer of account settings to this new version and somehow yours are blocked.

Ok, I just figured out the problem!

I switched to the Default Grey 2.2 Style the other day and the gray background seems to cause the + and neutral feedback data to "disappear" into the background, except for the red "zero" for negative feedback score which still stands out.

No problem seeing all of the feedback #'s w/the Default or Black style backgrounds.

So, I switching back to the Default style and, if anyone else mentions/complains about this problem, now you know why.

 

[sgt1372]

Ok, now I've got a different problem.

The buyer and I are trying to post +feedback for each other using this deal thread:

SOLD! - Kershaw - Onion - Pair of Blur Blems

In this thread, I'm selling 4 knives designed by Ken Onion for Kershaw -- a pair of Blur 1670BLK Blems and a pair of silver and black bladed Clashes (1605 and 1605CKT). I am selling the Blurs and Clashes separately as pairs and will not sell them individually here. 1) Blur Blems (1670BLK...

bladeforums.com

Figured out how to post a screen shot and below is what the buyer and I see when we try to use this link in posting the +feedback.

Also, when I try to do a search for my prior thread using the word "Sold" which I put in the title of everything deal thread after I've sold/closed the threads, this deal thread does not appear in the search. And there are many other prior deal threads that are also missing from the search.

BTW, I can "find" SOME but still not ALL of my prior "Sold" threads by scrolling back thru my prior "Activity" but NONE of them show up doing a word search using "Sold" and my screen name except those posted w/in the past few days.

Probably helps that when you report an issue, you at least say if you're using the mobile or desktop site.

I use the mobile site primarily. I use the DuckDuckGo Android app fireproofing this site on a phone running Android 10, always using a VPN. I run all my forums the same and ditched their native apps and stupid Tapatalk a long time ago. DuckDuckGo let's you add a bookmark of your choice to your home screen and choose an image for the icon. I'm using the default black style for BladeForums right now.

Since it's been mentioned, I don't see the trader stats below the avatars when on mobile in landscape or portrait. I tried all of the styles.

The bell icon is only working for threads I've followed since the upgrade. I've never used emails for this function.

Still feel like the search function is providing limited results.

Ok - somebody please splain to me real sloooow how to include emogies in a post. I read somewhere that you have to click on the three dot icon next to the Mountain (?) icon and then click on an emogie that comes up but when I do that, no emogies show up. So how do I include an emogie in my posts? A screen shot if possible would be helpful.

You mean these?

On the mobile site, touch the three dots to the right of the link/mountains and another menu appears beneath it with a happy face. Touch the face and a bunch show up. Find the one you want.

This is likely a function of the search (index) rebuilding.

I see exactly what you're talking about on your Mobile Screen Shot BUT when I go through your steps on my DESK TOP, the "More Options" icons don't show. When I click on the three dots the text of the message comes down but as I said, the "More Options" icons don't display.

It's working for me on a desk top. Windows 10, using firefox browser.

There are actually three different sets of dots for "more options". Do any of them work for you?
