Problems and Suggestions for BZ - Post Here

[Mahi]

The image host Imagesion has been blacklisted

[PinkCouture]

^ Depending on how fast the system processes the content of the post, the post will either be dead links & codes or an error message would pop-up preventing the member from posting from the blacklisted site.

 

If they are dead links & codes then you can report them as "empty posts"

Can we try putting excessive gifs in spoilers instead of linking them?  I think the rule should be: 2 or 3 gifs per page and then spoilers, thumbs or links for the rest.

^ the content probably loads even if its in a spoiler, so your bandwidth and CPU will still be utilized. I dont know if you would save anything by having them in spoilers unfortunately.

What he said (Y)

Like I said, if you see 1 or 2 full size gifs already on the page just textlink them and label them as "gifs" so people don't click on them thinking they are images

^ I don't think so b/c the the word "gif" is in the title. It clearly states the content of the thread. That is enough of a warning for those with slow connections or on mobile devices.

[La Parisienne]

I don't think so.

[tzdon]

^ You spoke too soon! They already switched to another one that is obviously from the same developers

I have trouble with Bellzon on my laptop recently. Both on Firefox and Opera I can take ages to load anything! Just the main page of bz. Sometimes it doesn't load at all! But on my mobile it works so fast, etc. I'm gonna delete my cookies but is it just me or?

There seems to be an issue with updating signatures and avatars - I hope it's not just me.

Attempting to update my signature gives me the following error:

Things I tried:

- Double checked the image URL was definitely correct and was also the right size (600x140)

- Tested the BB-Code both in the signature preview also in a forum thread - no errors and it displays fine

- Uploading the image to two different image hosts, and the same error occurs

- Refreshed the signature edit page, so it's still got my existing (working) signature in there, hit Save Changes without actually changing anything and the error still occurs

- Took out all image code altogether and it updated

Error with the avatar update is as follows:

This is using the "Import" function - uploading still seems to work fine.

[PinkCouture]

^ I just helped 2 members with this. There's definitely some sort of bug. For now here is what you should do:
 
1. When you go to the section to update your signature, turn off the toggle.
2. Paste in the edit window the url of your signature. Remove everything BUT the url (keep the http part)
3. Put an img tag around the url: [/ img] (no spaces)
3b. Turn the toggle back on if you like
4. Save the edit

It should work. If not just link me to your signature

 

----------------------------------------------------

 

On a related note, for some reason when members upload a new avatar it does not show up in threads & etc. but it does show up under their account settings

[donbot]

^All good, thanks PC

[La Parisienne]

I am not able to insert YouTube videos. It only appears the link, not the video.

[PinkCouture]

^ Like the the signature issue...

turn off the toggle---> paste the video URL (without the "s" in http)---> turn toggle back on---> post

[maddog107]

We have finished migrating to the new server. Please let me know if its faster/slower or if you encounter any weird bugs. Thanks

[La Parisienne]

In the past I used to follow these steps in order to post videos (and it was all fine): Link - URL (I pasted it there) - OK. But now this system doesn't work for me. I don't know if it's Bellazon's fault. Maybe it's just my computer. Thanks for explaining anyway, Pink.
