Logging into forums, doesn't auto log you in, you have to back out, & then go back into the forum to get the green light,
or alternatively do a context refresh.This happens if you clear you password & username then re-add it,(I used xbmc.org as a test) & also when adding a forum from the online database and adding your details same happens no green light until you manually refresh. I think before it used to auto refresh your login.

I noticed this and forgot about it as I was doing something else at the time

I'm not sure if this is a xbmc.org website problem, but according to my user info pane (green writing next to avatar) in Forum Browser, I'm always viewing my profile ha ha, & ruuk you are always viewing the main index, this is true also if you go to the xbmc.org website, so I'm thinking maybe this is a website limitation for some reason. what do you see ?.

Well it used to say ' ' but it appears the forum's tapatalk plugin has been updated to show current activity. The reason it shows viewing profile (I assume), is because to get the user info for the posts, it calls the get_user_info function for each user (which I assume is interpreted as viewing a profile) . It does that after it gets all the posts, so your last activity will always be viewing a profile. I'll add this to the todo to look at and see if there is a way I can make it trigger a more correct activity display.

Your test page at the Hub, Voinage put up a picture, that type of image link doesn't activate the new image icon, it's still grayed out.

Found the problem and fixed it. The function to check for media was in fact not checking for normal images at all, just links to images. My brain was missing when I did that I guess

I think your share social add-on should be pulled along with web viewer to give the extra functionality, I really don't think that people will mind.
Or you could add it to the settings page to be pulled as an option, explaining the benefits. If so could there be help etc added to the settings.

Well, I realized recently that I could do optional dependencies. I haven't tested it yet, but I assume it will pull the addon if it is available, but not fail if it's not. I'll add it that way.

If posting a post via Forum Browser, you loose all the info next to your avatar, you have to back out & back in again to see it, or alternatively do a context refresh.

That's actually probably another 'Forbidden' issue. Because of the 'Forbidden' issue with getting the user info multiple times, I made it so that even if it failed to get the info, it still would display the posts. A log would possibly confirm that.

On selecting settings could the focus be on the left hand General tab, instead of in the general settings themselves so you can go direct to the tab of your choice ?.

I can't control anything about the settings interface. That is handled by XBMC.

Could you add to the new forum's list window the option to modify the forum descriptions, ie the info about the forums you see when browsing the online database, as once it's added to the online database, there's no way of changing it to make it better later on.

I'm creating a 'Forum Settings' button that will replace some of the buttons such as 'Set Logins'. This will open a per forum settings window where you can edit your username and password as well as behavior settings for that forum. I will add the description and probably the logo to that as well.

When adding a forum to the online database, & you are asked if the website requires a login to view, if one is required the keyboard pops up, maybe there could be a prompt to say "add username", then on the next keyboard "add your password" as currently there blank keyboards.

Hmm... the code sets the keyboard headings to 'Enter Username' and 'Enter Password'. Does the Transparency skin not show headings on the keyboard dialog?

The torrentday forum you worked on for me (the one on the online database) makes forum browser loose focus, could you check it out to see if it does it for you ?.

I didn't get it to lose focus. At what point does it happen?

My parser browser tab in the local forums list is greyed out, how does this become active, or am I being stupid.

It should be available when a Parser Browser forum (such as torrentday) is highlighted

It's ok for me to say this & say that, but I really do appreciate how much effort you put into this tell your wife I'm sorry
As always thanks for the updates

No problem. Without somebody catching these things, I would just tend to not notice or ignore them and FB wouldn't be as good.
Because of your enthusiastic support and help, I always look at your comments as an effort to be helpful. I can tell from the issues you find that you are not only finding them in normal usage, but actually spend some time doing actual testing. You also make it easier on me by putting in the effort to post logs and screenshots and such, which I really appreciate.
I have a hard time doing a lot of testing myself, probably because I know subconsciously that I will find bugs and have to fix them
, but also because I'd rather be coding something.
