Known Issues
Posted on January 19th, 2009 by Roger Benningfield
Here’s a list of known problems with the current build and installation. Some of the issues will be with us for the immediate future… others are minor problems that I’m fixing as I uncover them. Items with a line through them have been fixed.
- Upload avatars fails, with a blank avatar the result.
- Cropping controls in avatar upload are glitchy. (Minor issue.)
- Broken “reset password” link on the account verification page. (Minor issue.)
- Doubling up of some items in the “My Friends” activity feed. (Cosmetic issue.)
- Domain mapping an individual blog seems to break the BP linkbar. (Minor issue.)
- A 404 (missing page) error briefly appears and then is replaced when posting to someone’s wire. (Cosmetic issue.)
- Awkward pronouns in the interface due to the lack of gender info in profiles. (Cosmetic issue.)
- On multi-user blogs, the user who publishes the post is credited with it in the activity feed, if another user was the actual author. (Minor issue.)
- When viewing a profile, Blog –> Recent Posts fails with a SQL error. (Significant issue.)
- When creating a new blog (Blog–>Create Blog), it cannot be accessed and returns a “Directory Listing Denied” error. (This is not exactly a bug… it’s just a consequence of the testing configuration. Once everything is in place, it’ll work as expected.)
How bout this for a glitch: I can’t even get to a sign up screen. Yes. I see the little button that says: Creat an account However when I push it it goes to a log in screen which won’t work because I have no account. Now, I’ve tried several other ways to find a way to create an account, all unsuccessfull. It does not make me feel good about myself to see that several other people have signed up without stress. I KNOW it has to be simple but I am obviously too retarded to do it. Pout.
Not your fault! I was fiddling with permission settings and put the system in a state where you couldn’t create an account. Should work now, though.
