Title: [bug] cliking "delete post" with middle button kills it , no confirmation dialog
Post by: xorxor on February 12, 2013, 01:44:18 AM
I edit my post's quite often - for example the all coins list OP - like 3 times a day. and this delete button is very close to edit.
when "delete" is klicked once with "open on new tab" scrollbutton - it kills post without confirmation button. I cant repair the damage even with backups. 

in the same thread i deleted my #74 post :(

That problem can't be easily fixed.

I can restore the post. Was it this one? What thread was it in?

Would be great to have a powerful wiki mechanism at a top of theme instead of simple machines forum simple topic...

I mean all this stuff with categorizing, systematization, self-linking, such ways that no repeat jobs will required, like mirror to en.bitcoin.it/wiki or en.wikipedia.org.

To have to see all related topics of e.g. ppcoin here, or get up by categories, and look at mining peculiar properties, or whatever else, but not a rude brute of new snow-like falling topics from multi-languages branches.


go ahead and do it. it's a lot of work, You have to do a lot of research on every coin and some work on layout. if there will be some nice wiki page I will link it in big font at the top of OP. right now its just a quickly made and errorous copy of earlier version of this thread. no updates, no corrections. thats why it's linked on the bottom.




major changes:

as I realized, only btc and ltc are in fact a currency :
name of topic changed from "list of all cryptocurrencies to list of all cryptocoins"

TRC is going to minor, with working exchange

minor changes in descriptions of btc,trc .

/edit
ppc is back, my mistake, forgot about bitparking exchange

seems like a big CSRF vulnerability.

I restored it.

seems like a big CSRF vulnerability.

It is a bad design, but the links have session IDs, so no CSRF. But don't give anyone your links or they'll be able to impersonate you...

Does the forum not pop up with an alert on "Are you sure you would like to delete this post?"

EDIT: Ah, it looks like it does! This could be fixed by making the delete button call a JS function that pops up that, instead of directly linking to it.

Then it wouldn't work if you have JavaScript disabled.

What about changing the hrefs to JS links (or whatever, most likely just "#self" or "javascript:void(0)" or something, then change the onclick method) via JS on page load?
