I've changed the announcement end date so that it no longer appears.

Error I just got now from clicking "My profile"

[TinCow]

That's common. It occurs when Steam is down or otherwise slow to respond to the forum's request for your Steam ID info. The error goes away once Steam gets its act together. Usually it will go away if you refresh once or twice.

[Beskar]

That's no problem, was no biggy, just pasting it in here incase it needed your expertise.

How about increasing the PM cap? Has that been floated about yet?

Standard inbox should now be 1000 since May 31st. Is this not the case with your account?

[Montmorency]

Cool, didn't see that.

Feels like: Inbox III:Andres Edition.

Could you please don't make the thread rating take the whole right side of the post of the entire post, it's better if it only takes the top, it won't disturb the layout.

Thank you

Is this still an issue? We cannot replicate the problem, all images display fine for us.

Done (moved to bottom of first post, below the main text body, so no formatting issues with the main text.

I see this:

Looks like I don't have the permissions, from what it appears.

@Tiaexz

Took me a while, but I think I fixed this. I believe this was a permission settings error which only occurred in the Backroom and, oddly enough, only impacted Moderators, CMs, and non-logged in viewers. It did not impact TAs, FAs, Members, or SMs, which is why it took me a while to figure it out. Please confirm that the problem is indeed gone in the Backroom. Also, please let me know if you experience it in any other forum. I don't think you should, as it was probably a setting left over from when the Backroom was locked down a bit, but keep your eyes peeled for it just in case.

[Beskar]

Yes, it is working for me now. At least in the backroom! If I see it elsewhere, I will bring it back up.

In the total war general forums, there is a sub forum, the apothecary. In that sub forum, there is another sub forum, also called the apothecary. Is that intentional, or...?

[Visor]

Is it possible to make the "who posted" section open up in a new tab rather then window?

[therother]

Right click the link and select Open in New Tab.

It's intentional, but silly. It will be better organized later this week.

[Visor]

Right click the link and select Open in New Tab.

I was asking in a "Is this possible way" rather then "can you do this"?

I do know that you can do the above, I just wondered whether it could be changed. (More of a curiosity thing.)

[therother]

Yes, it's possible.

[Visor]

Is it possible for mentions to send an email? (or at least have an option for that?)

Unfortunately, that's beyond our abilities.

[Lemur]

Just like to state, for the record, that we will never be this cool:

[InsaneApache]

That seems a bit rash. Did someone egg them on?

[johnhughthom]

This is probably down to my browser, and not an issue with the org itself (in fact, it's not even an issue, more an oddity), but thought I'd mention it anyway.

Whenever I go through my history tab in Chrome and select the Org homepage, there are usually two listings saying 'The Org forums.totalwar.org' with different time stamps for each. One will bring you to the Org homepage, and one will just bring up a blank page. Is there a particular reason for this, never noticed it happening with any other website.

Like I say it's not even an issue, just seems odd, so I don't actually expect anyone to look into it. Unless they want to....

[TinCow]

What's the URL for the blank page?

[johnhughthom]

https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/priva...insertpm&pmid=

Looks like it's related to pms.

[TinCow]

That is indeed a blank page. The URL looks like it's part of a form submission, which indicates that it's blank because the information for the form hasn't been saved along with the URL. It's not a bug or error, but there's no reason to have it in your history. I recommend just deleting that entry if it's confusing you.

[caravel]

That's odd when I visit that URL I see the Senior Members private pr0n stash....

No nothing there at all, must be an error - delete it and all will be well.

I can't open spoilers on my phone when using the mobile skin. I can open spoilers at twc where there is no mobile skin. Is it my phone that's causing trouble or is there something wrong with the skin?
