I don't have access to the server. :wink: Even if I did know how to fix it I couldn't. However tonight I made my first useful php script tonight. :D I still have a long ways to go, but I'm learning. CSS is still my passion.

Josh: is there a way to delete comments posted to one's submissions?

You can delete additions and corrections others have posted on your pages. But you cannot delete comments other have posted on your pages. However you can either contact the owner of the comment(s) or the elves. The reason for this is that in the past some folks deleted comments as a way to avoid someone's additions/faults. For example if you comment on a page and say "the page is missing driving directions". The owner cannot remove your words, hence it has to be either listed to be the owner or hopefully someone else sees it. Agreed that this is kinda annoying but it's just the way it is right now. However if you have a more clever method for dealing with this, feel free to chime in.

The main reason you cannot delete comments on submissions is so that folks are free to voice differing opinions... such as with controversial articles or TRs.

Matt Lemke hasn't been able to do much SP work due to getting a really ugly SQL error (this is the one I got):

Code: Select all
replace_object() INSERT INTO `objects` SET `last_edit`=NOW(),`last_edit_user_id`='67750',`show_toc`='Yes',`construction`='No',`obj_type_name`='Cheezy Peak',`object_name`='Cheezy Peak',`province`=NULL,`county`=NULL,`latitude`=NULL,`longitude`=NULL,`private_attach`='Yes',`bannertypeclick`='htmlSticker',`query`='Find Weather',`object_body_ft`='It ain\'t easy being cheezy',`object_id`='863222',`type_id`='8',`creation`='2013-08-24 21:15:52',`created_user_id`='67750',`is_primary_photo_user_set`=0,`query_name`='Cheezy Peak' ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE `last_edit`=NOW(),`last_edit_user_id`='67750',`show_toc`='Yes',`construction`='No',`obj_type_name`='Cheezy Peak',`object_name`='Cheezy Peak',`province`=NULL,`county`=NULL,`latitude`=NULL,`longitude`=NULL,`private_attach`='Yes',`bannertypeclick`='htmlSticker',`query`='Find Weather',`object_body_ft`='It ain\'t easy being cheezy',`object_id`='863222',`type_id`='8',`creation`='2013-08-24 21:15:52',`created_user_id`='67750',`is_primary_photo_user_set`=0,`query_name`='Cheezy Peak' failed: DB Error: no such field


Fortunately after doing over an hour of investigating I figured out it had to do with weather boxes (like weather underground and such). In this case there was a form and a event handler being called. :? After stripping out the code, poof the page worked just fine. Another interesting fact about that was that it occurred more in Google Chrome than FireFox. So if anyone gets crazy code like I have above, let me investigate it. I'll probably figure it out. :wink: But small time code, well I got more to learn for that part.

I haven't read all the prior posts and I know this is a very minor bug but I was doing some searches (regular and advanced) and when I put in a date i.e. 2013 for images posted in 2013 the first image that comes up is from 2005. Other years also come up such as on p. 3 with 2011. I tried other specific years such as 2012 and 2007 and similar non-year specified images came up in the results.

Am I searching for something that the Search isn't designed to do?

Thanks...Kathy

Your post is a new one regarding this issue. Anyways, when searching "2013", this is because the owner of that image edited the description this year to have a link to an article. The article has a date stamp in it (probably the date it was published). It shows up first because it's the highest scored image with the number "2013". So if anything, the search is working just fine and it would be a bug if it didn't show up. :wink: So are you proposing a search by date feature? I think it would be a neat addition.

Okay. Your explanation makes sense once I know what is causing the out-of-year-image to show. Search is actually searching in multiple fields even if I choose only Images to be searched and including modification dates etc..

I do find the current Search function "clunky" sort of.

Most of all, I'd like to have a link to the Advanced Search function right with the Basic Search option so I didn't have to go through Basic Search first.

Thanks!

I submitted a post and says that it is waiting to be reviewed before it is visible?! WTF?
