I just noticed some different (& somewhat worse) behaviors in the forum text-search function:
For an example of how this breaks things, try finding the thread http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/briti...d-threads.html by searching in the BA forum for the first word in the title. Can the IB coders please go back to treating " as a delimiter & not a literal character in the search engine? EDIT: Further experimentation reveals that escaping a word or character with a backslash, e.g.,

I'm really pleased w/ the upgrade so far. Works great - back to the old performance of the gallery.flyertalk.com/wap site without the frequent malformed XML errors.

Search function foibles
I just searched for some pretty common terms in the Air Canada forum such as "NZ" and "AKL" using the quotations and nothing was returned so is there some technical snafu with the FT Search being experienced?
I can find results for Auckland but often posters don't that term for the city and use the airport code instead. |
Posted in the relatively new YYZ border control thread (Air Canada forum) last nte. See post under my profile. Does not show in thread as best I can tell. Re-posted today. Same situation. This has never happened before. Another post I did this morning is in its thread where it should be. Mod notes that posts are out of order which shouldn't happened and suggested I post the tech issue here for resolution/ideas.

Today's update should take care of this issue.

Well, I did but it's not here. Same as the issue I was describing. If you click "see all posts" by Bartolo, you will see it there. Best I can do.

You pasted the link into your post just above this one, but it's not there? I don't see any evidence of that. Also it is not remotely the issue you described originally. So I think this may be user error. If you have steps I can take to reproduce it, please list them. If you reference a specific thread or post, please paste them into your post. There's not much I can do at this point, as you have posted conflicting information and no links.

Update: just checked thread and the original two posts are now there. Certainly weren't there before.

As this thread is dedicated to technical issues related to the recent upgrade to VB, the posts regarding the "Original Poster" badge have been moved to their own thread:

I'm having the problem with the first unread post button not working properly again. It's taking me to the top of the page instead of the first post. Sometimes to the beginning of the thread.

Because Quick Reply works for me; it's browser-related, possibly your device related.

Header hyperlink not linking to first page of thread
2 Attachment(s)
I've noticed that the URL in the header of the thread is not linking back to the start of the thread but flyertalk.com/forum
In the screenshot below, at the top my cursor is hovering over the thread title > FAQ & feedback: and the URL shown in the status bar is where that link goes. Underneath that I'm hovering over > Technical Support and Feedback and that URL goes to the right directory The thread title hyperlink in the header used to go back to the first page, and right clicking on the hyperlink gave me the option to copy the URL for pasting into other posts. For now I have to use the Page 1 or First link in the page navigation, which is smaller and not so easy... Getting the same in Chrome and IE11. Hope I explained that okay |
