Bug Report 2023

[JBS]

1) Why can't I find the original Bug Report thread?
2) Who is in charge of re-pinning the WAYLT2 thread?

2. I don't know how it became unpinned!  Any mod can pin or unpin a thread (but we try to work in consensus on pinning threads).  I just pinned it back because I think that must have been a mistake.

Thanks!

It also happened a few months ago, but Que pinned it back.

Especially on mobile, the moderator buttons are very close to other buttons. I've accidentally toggled moderating options just while scrolling down the page. We definitely appreciate the alert if we have accidentally moderated something

Yes, scrolling on the phone, I've nearly reported countless posts to moderators.     It is right in my finger's natural swiping path.

Not a bug, but the site was not to be reached for me most of the day. The server did give me a fault message.

I had the same problem. Was the site under maintenance?

Apparently the problem was due to the board being momentarily oversaturated with British music, but it's all fixed now, and we can all continue discussing our favourite composers with no restrictions.

My goodness, how on earth could that have happened?!

Apologies for GMG being down. Due to forces beyond my control. My entire hosting provider was down, first time in many years. They probably have a lot of very angry customers.

I prefer the words "elevated" and "enlightened" and "transfigured" rather than "over-saturated" with regards to British Music.......... !!!!

I, of course, second these wise words...

I've put some Portuguese music on this morning (Freitas Branco) to help alleviate the problem

ASIN pictures are still not visible and there are quite a number of old posts featuring them. Any developments on that front?

[Pohjolas Daughter]

I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.  Yesterday, I was trying to add an image to a post of Vaughan Williams and his favorite cat Foxy and somehow or another I added it in twice (initially, it didn't like the format of my picture, so I had to find another version of it).  I just clicked on it to modify it, but not certain what to delete and where I went wrong initially.

Any help/suggestions would be appreciated!

@Pohjolas Daughter

Attach the file but don't insert it.  If you do insert it, it will appear in both the body and the attachment portion of the post. AFAIK there's no way to have the image in the post without the duplicate attachment below. You'd have to link an image outside GMG and not use attachments

[JBS]

As a contrast, with image inserted.
BTW it's what I use as the wallpaper/lock screen of my phone.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot!
