I'm on Safari and as of this morning, I cannot use the top red navigation menu on the main page. If I click an article and go to that page, the menu works fine. But not on the main page. Have tried clearing my cache and cookies. Don't have the same problem in other browsers.

Could you fix the pagination bug where in a single post, when we have just filled a page with replies, for example when there are exactly 24 replies to the OP, the pagination would show there are 2 pages (it should be just 1). Now if you click on "2", you would be redirected to the message board home page, because there's nothing on the 2nd page of the post yet. It's very annoying and it's been there for ages.

Why does the text formatting toolbar keep disappearing? When responding to a thread, I used to get a brief view of the HTML code in the post and then the screen would refresh and show the text in WYSIWYG format. Now, I get nothing - just a blank box.

F*cking THANK YOU for bringing this up. I haven’t seen anyone else bring this up and I thought it was just me having issues constantly.

Admittedly, I thought we'd actually fixed this bug. Can you please PM me the next time you see it so I can pull some data to pass on to our resident bug-squasher? Thanks.

I found an example: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1155490 It has 49 replies and should have only 2 pages. But there are 3 page links and if you click on "3", you get redirected to message board home page.

Interestingly it doesn't happen when there's 24 replies, like this: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1155407

The formatting bar disappeared. Wanted to include a link and the link icon is gone on both iPad and Windows desktop.

On the mobile app I am still seeing "1 message" next to message alert.

Also, I know we can't get rid of the ads but it is really annoying that some videos start and then just stop about 5 or so seconds in for an ad and then just continue after. I haven't noticed it in the past few days so maybe that was taken care of? I actually stopped watching videos a while ago because of it.

Please fix the formatting bar. For those of us who aren't dumb TikTokers and still use proper grammar, it's very important.

Thanks, dolls!

We believe that both the pagination bug and the editor bug are resolved, along with any issues with PMs.

As always, if you have any issues please feel free to let us know via email at [e-mail], or via PM to the moderator account.

Can we please disable the pop-up video on the mobile version? Really annoying to constantly have to delete it every time I pull up a different thread.

Since earlier today I've been seeing what looks like a database query being printed above the main feed on the board homepage:

select topics.topicname,boardtitle,topicid,wbtable.id,topic,replies,lastcomment,lastcommentbyfirst,topicstartedbyfirst,views,lockthread,sticky FROM bway_bww.wbtable left join bway_bww.topics on wbtable.topicid = topics.id where boardid = 1 and lastcomment > '2020-01-01' ORDER BY sticky desc, lastcomment desc LIMIT 50,50

I have also noticed this in the last few days.

On a slightly related topic, any CD review, or similar review article by "Bobby Patrick" (NYC and Cabaret beat) *never* load properly when accessed via the link on the homepage; the posted hyperlink *always* is lacking the domain. Instead of "https://www.broadywayworld.com/article/ARTICLE-TITLE-HERE", without fail you receive a Page Not Found error, because the referring link is literally "article/ARTICLE-TITLE-HERE", completely lacking the domain. If you manually add the domain, it works fine. But please, check Mr. Patrick's upload/directory settings -- this is a constantly occuring problem.

The spam is out of control. 

Can we get some captcha? Some two factor authentication please?

It's happening again to this post: https://forum.broadwayworld.com/readmessage.php?thread=1155151 where it has 125 replies, and when I clicked on "6" in the pagination, I was redirected to the message board home page.

Just checking to see if anyone is having problems of no photos or video loading. I have a lot of white space where they should be. Have restarted computer and problem still exists. 

I am using Safari browser.

For several days now the bullet feature has not been working. When you click the bullet icon, the bullet appears in the editing window, but when you preview or post the response, the bullet is not there:

• This sentence was actually entered as a bullet point.

I am having this issue with "exclusive" videos - not ones that are linked over to YouTube.  I've tried edge, opera and chrome. So, e.g., the Krakowski Schmigadoon video doesn't load. 
 

update: video appears and plays on phone via the app

So now we have to deal with two pop-up video ads now? One incredible massive ad and then there's the usual video ad that I have to cancel out with every page turn?

[Robbie2]

Posted: 4/6/23 at 9:20pm

What is with all the advertising crap, enough already BW and what's up with the nonstop annoying pop up ads for Life of Pi! Stop already Rob!!! Don't get me started on all the videos that you post and seconds later another ad!? Jeez!

Posted: 4/6/23 at 9:32pm

That annoying AF Life of Pi pop up video that takes up the fvcking entire screen of my Mac needs to go. Seriously WTF!?!?!?

I wonder how much it would cost to just move to a real forum and not really have to employ anyone locally to fix it. Reddit will decide this for them if they don't take it seriously anyways,
