Title: Watchlist problem Post by: Octopuss on January 04, 2014, 05:05:58 PM Whenever I open the watchlist and click on the small blue "new" icon in the name of a thread, it takes me to top of the last page instead of first unread post. Is this some known bug, or what's the deal here? Any ideas? I am using Firefox v26.
Also, why are unread posts not marked by some icon inside a thread? That would make the forum much more readable/less chaotic. Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: whiskers75 on January 05, 2014, 09:53:02 AM Get the Bitcointalk++ script, by jackjack (look in Meta).

Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: justusranvier on January 05, 2014, 01:51:52 PM Most likely it was one of the features that was consuming too much in the way of database resources so Theymos had to turn it off.

A links a link, I can't see how it would use db storage. Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: justusranvier on January 05, 2014, 02:07:46 PM A links a link, I can't see how it would use db storage. Finding the most recently read post in a thread is a calculation that has to be performed on a per-user basis.Although that might not be it, because it looks like all anchor links are broken.

Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: theymos on January 05, 2014, 05:13:09 PM Nothing changed on the forum's end. This is probably a Firefox bug unless there's something invalid about the forum's XHTML.
Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: theymos on January 05, 2014, 09:14:48 PM I refuse to use shit browser Why are you using Firefox, then? ;) I think that Firefox 26 is broken somehow. I'll investigate it when I can.

I'll investigate it when I can. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/484719/html-anchors-with-name-or-id Quote According to the HTML 5 specification, 5.9.8 Navigating to a fragment identifier: Could this be the reason?Quote For HTML documents (and the text/html MIME type), the following processing model must be followed to determine what the indicated part of the document is. So, it will look for id="foo" followed by name="foo"Parse the URL, and let fragid be the <fragment> component of the URL. If fragid is the empty string, then the indicated part of the document is the top of the document. If there is an element in the DOM that has an ID exactly equal to fragid, then the first such element in tree order is the indicated part of the document; stop the algorithm here. If there is an a element in the DOM that has a name attribute whose value is exactly equal to fragid, then the first such element in tree order is the indicated part of the document; stop the algorithm here. Otherwise, there is no indicated part of the document. Edit: As pointed out by @hsivonen, in HTML5 the a element has no name attribute. However, the above rules still apply to other named elements.

The forum isn't HTML 5 though - it's XHTML 1.0 Transitional.See http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_name.asp also Edit: the forum uses Quote <a name="new"></a> Firefox 26 here and I'm also seeing a complete failure of anchor links to resolve. Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: dudel42 on January 05, 2014, 10:04:48 PM the thing is, i haven't changed anything in my browser or OS setup in the last few days... and suddenly it stopped working in FF26. browser was not upgraded in the last days, so I can't believe nothing changed in the forum that broke it..?
Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: theymos on January 06, 2014, 01:00:28 AM It's a bug in EasyList for Adblock Plus. All links (including "anchor" links) are blocked when immediately inside of a post <td>:
Code: bitcointalk.org##td[style="padding: 1px 1px 0 1px;"] > a Complain to EasyList. It's impossible for an Adblock Plus filter to block all of the forum's ads. Some ads can be individually blocked, but not all forum ads in general. They should stop trying or they're going to keep breaking things for their users. Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: jackjack on January 06, 2014, 01:09:37 AM Don't they know the purpose of testing? ::)
Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: theymos on January 06, 2014, 01:12:40 AM What browser do you use theymos? All browsers suck. I actually use Firefox (mostly) because it sucks a little less AFAICT, but I'm frustrated with it daily. Title: Re: Watchlist problem Post by: TheButterZone on January 06, 2014, 08:37:44 AM This bugged me too. Disabled ABP on bitcointalk.org. Problem solved.
