View a Reference / Search for References Bug List

Post by TrademasterAdam »

Bugs Only, questions are in another thread

ref_view.php

The big changes to this version are:
1. Colossally faster and easier on the server. You might not notice the difference but from a server perspective, this is much easier for it to load/check references.
2. This is located within the phpBB security, your real name will only be posted if the person searching is logged in.

BUGS/Wishlist:
1. Bad references need to be red.
2. Make it prettier.

Anything else?


Thanks,

TrademasterAdam

BUG:
When you leave a reference, it still bumps up EVERYONE'S rating in the ITL (though it does not carry over to the entry next to our name on our posts). Unless you've fixed that recently and haven't posted it.

Bug/Wish:
There's still a "Test" ref on my page that I left for myself during testing, before the ITL went live.

Wish:
By the trading Gods, can you fix the window where we enter our text to make it a less annoying size/shape.

Thanks, Adam.

I've tried to leave a reference for HarlequinZero THREE times.
Nothing exceptional.
-A LARGE amount of text in the comments the first 2 times.
Shortened it for the 3rd try. Still didn't go through.

All the info was there except the country (Japan's not on the list).

I entered everything, got to the "confirm" screen, then it went back to the "leave a reference" page after I "confirmed" it. Everything was blank again, except the comments text was still in there, and the $ value was no longer in the box, but off to the right NEXT to the box.
This is similar to a problem I had during texting. I emailed you a screenshot of it when I first encountered it.

Under the current references view, we no longer have the highlighting.

It would be good if Bad had the red background again.

Also, a yellow background for Neutral, please.

Not a BUG per se, but something that should be changed..

When you click the "Check References" tab, it takes you to a page that says..

itl_view.php

and a better way to search is to replace that string with

ref_view.php

This was being talked about on the INfo Forum, so thought it should be here too..

-P
2+2=5 for sufficiently large values of 2.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I use the Unofficial Porkuslime Trading Guidelines - if you have way less refs.. you ship first.

Folks I am awaiting a ref from.. Zack
