That blue colored word "Quote" which doesn't work is a reminder that computers are silently, stealthily, creepily, trying to drive us mad and take over.

ImagesandWords:Ah, thank you Smiling Dave, but surely there is a better, quicker way than even that to quote people. What is this blue-colored word "Quote" that I see for?
If it worked, I'm pretty confident it would only do what I suggested... turn the quote=false to quote=true in the URL, which would just make the quoted post appear.
What are you trying to do, exactly? I may be able to help you better if I understand what you're looking to do more clearly. :)
ladyphoenix:Did Filc tell you to hit "reply" and then change the "false" at the end of the URL to "true?" If that's not what you're talking about, I'm curious what is time consuming about quoting posts... I'm afraid I don't understand. :) It doesn't seem all that time-consuming to me.

I second this, very frustrating! The only thing I've been able to do to get around it was up in the address bar change "&Quote=False" to "&Quote=True" after clicking on "reply" next to the post I wanted to reply to. Or just typing out my own codes. Fortunately my profession is a web developer so I can get around having to type in CSS/HTML etc.
ImagesandWords:ladyphoenix, First, preferentially I would rather see all of the pertinent information related to quoting within the immediate area of the quote itself, not at the top of the window. Second, I don't understand why it is necessary to delete some info just to replace it with other info when quoting. It's more movement and steps than what seems should be necessary. However, I am not a software engineer or programmer so there may very well be good, sound reasons why the current setup is the way it is. Like I said, It's a small trade-off for what I am getting in return. No worries. Thanks again.
Hopefully it's a little easier for you now, though. :)

Hello again!
Didn't get an answer to this the last time and it's doing it all again, so I'm going to bump with a self-quote...
The bug is that this particular thread seems to be lagging far behind in the number of pages being displayed on the "Active Topics" page and the main forum page. Rather than show the 19th page, it simply shows page 7. Now, it is not the case that this simply got up to page 7 and stopped, because this thread has always been behind (I've been following it intently). When it had only four pages, the front page and the "Active Topics" page reflected that there were only two pages.
Right now, it's occurring with this thread:
http://mises.org/Community/forums/t/23128.aspx - So Rothbard is okay with taking government money?
There are at least six pages and right now it's only showing three. This has been lagging since the addition of page two as far as I can tell.
It is not occurring in this thread
http://mises.org/Community/forums/t/11829.aspx - Must See Movies, which displays and actually has five pages.
If this has been addressed before, tell me to shut up and I will. :) Thanks.

Just about to share the article is all with some non-Austrian's via fb, so will get some folks reading it.
To add another problem, the search engine on this forum is not working properly,
I don't think it ever did. What's wrong with it?
To paraphrase Marc Faber: We're all doomed, but that doesn't mean that we can't make money in the process. Rabbi Lapin: "Let's make bricks!" Stephan Kinsella: "Say you and I both want to make a German chocolate cake."
I think DV deleted the search index a year or so ago to solve an issue with the database crashing.
We definitely need a 'go to last unread post' button.
The www.mises.com domain is not working. Before, it used to direct me straight to the Mises Community Page. Now it gives me the following error message: "The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred."

On the other hand, having to remember what post I read last has improved my memory skills.
Can't edit some posts. I get the
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Forum has been extremely slow last few days. May be me, anyone else having problems?
Not slow but lot of contents missing (list of private discussions, avatar, firend list etc).
Yea i lost my avatar had to revert back to the default ones or my posts were going all stretched.
I think the slowness was my end. Seem to have fixed it now.
Kakugo:Not slow but lot of contents missing (list of private discussions, avatar, firend list etc).
It was never gone...you just couldn't see it. It should all be back now...is it not?
Jack...how in the hell did you find this thread?
The missing avatars are still gone for me and a lot of posts are stretched because of missing avatars.
I found the thread by going to help section.
Hmm. Post a couple of links where you see issues.
The search engine on this site still isn't working properly.

Daniel Muffinburg:What do you mean?
Well, do you honestly think the word "Hoppe" only appears 35 times in this entire forum?
John James:The word "Hoppe" only appears 35 times in the search results.
Fixed it for you.
Anyway... I see. I hardly ever use the search engine because it sucks. I always assumed that it was designed that way, not that it wasn't working properly.

It was correct the first time. There was nothing to fix. I was asking you a question.
Search engine? What search engine? I use "site:mises.org" on google.
Anyone know what the deal is with all the empty posts?
Yes, that is what I meant. When you type in a search term, only a few results come up. It used to work properly, but nowadays I get only a handful of hits.
I tried to point out the problem with avatar causing the gaps between posts above.
I am still having speed problems. Call me paranoid but ever since I made that post about terrorists and freedom fighters. I have been having to wait at least 2 mins after i submit a comment for the page to reload. I tried from another IP and it did the same thing. I doubt that post has anything to do with, probably just a coincidence. I don't have any performance issues on other sites.
Ok please ignore me. Sorry. I think I have just identified the problem. But not sure why the problem is occuring but at least I have identified it.
I tried from work and it worked without any problems, all the avatars load fine.
