Topic: IMPORTANT: AutoPuzzles will be stopped for maintenance!

The top 15 Puzzle Point getters are now listed in the Stats section of the board.

Enjoy!

Fascinating!
Since the details in the Member Profile includes the number of points they have, I'm surprised it's not included in the List of Members; if it was then just clicking on a 'No. of Points' heading would sort all members in order of the number of points they have...  Is that something that would be easy to include?

On the stats page there's a Life of Top Karma. Karma equals points

Yes I know, but only the Top 15 points scorers.
If it was a heading in the Members section you could see the points situation of the entire membership at a glance?

That application doesn't wanna install. Try and make do with this one.

Oh that's what it means - thought it was US-spelling either for Khama (as in Seretse Khama, first president of Botswana) or Kama (as in Kama Sutra) but could seen no relevance in either (or Karma of course).
Why does it have to be in code?

Why does it have to be in code?

Because our Puzzle Points system is based on a forum function called Karma.  For me to edit the HTML and change the new modification to read Puzzle Points is doable, but it is a bit of work and editing HTML has inherent risks that can lead to other, major errors.

Hence, according to one table buried deep on our stats page, Paul Jaray has a lot of good Karma.

Hope that helps.

Will there be a quick reply editor again?

The Quick Reply settings are now controlled individually in your user profile settings under Look and Layout.  You can turn it on for yourself, as well as other features, if you like.

[Ultra]

I don't know if this happens to others, too, but always when I post a reply I get thrown out of the topic. I'm on the next level above then (Expert-, Rookie-, Professional board).

Another setting you set for yourself in your Profile/Look and Layout section.

[Allemano]

Thank you. Meanwhile I figured it out with support of Ecnelis...

[Ultra]

Well folks, I've made lots of changes, big and little, to this site.  Some of you may have noticed some of the new changes like Board notifications and a few others.  Also tried to clean up user info within a post.

This all said, I do believe the board mods are done for awhile now. I continue to turn on people's country flag if they aren't on and it is a requirement for registration now. I encourage the other admins to turn on people's country flags as well.

Ciao and enjoy the AutoPuzzles experience.

It's excellent and a decided improvement.
Good work and well worthwhile!

Inline attachments are now an option for use here at AutoPuzzles.

Read all about it here:

[Ultra]

You can even set the width of your inline images so that they fit the screen.

[attachimg=1 width=500]

I think this could be a real boon to the look and layout of the site.

I'm getting "Database Error. Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator." while trying to add a point here: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=25415.0

[Tom_I]

I'm having the same problem. When I click the "add" button to award a point, this appears:

[Carnut]

We all are incl the Admins, but we have a way around it.
Send me the details of who you want to award a point to and I'll do it for you until the fix comes along!

[pnegyesi]

Problem fixed (sorry my brother was travelling and I could only get hold of him now)

[Otto Puzzell]

Excellent!

[pnegyesi]

thanks for the technical description, it took 2 minutes to fix it

Hello. I'm on my holiday right now and I'm using my cellphone to stay on-line and there is funny thing... I'm getting this message while trying to use AutoPuzzles:

"Sorry Ecnelis, you are banned from using this forum!
This ban is not set to expire."

This message was sent via anonymouse.org so... my mobile operator's IP is blocked (it's 5.60.208.234)?

I already had it sometimes in the past, and it just happened again.  When visiting Autopuzzles (and the forum) the following webpage pops up.  After refreshing a couple of times, the normal pages are present again.  Reason?

Hi,
I posted this in another section but I had no feedback about it... what do you think about adding a "tag" system to the puzzles?

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=135761.0

This is the only part I understand:
http://mods.simplemachines.org/index.php?mod=579

seems to be quite simple and very useful!

[Iluvatar]

It could be great to classify the solved puzzles...

[gilescooperuk]

Just a thought the big problem with tagging stuff (as I know from bitter experience) is when someone adds a tag in which is almost the same as an existing one - I.e. Spelling convertible as convertable. Both tags become valid but the misspelled tag hides the information from search results.

Incidentally there are whole sites devoted to looking for mistakes like this on eBay.

AutoPuzzles will again be stopped for maintenance over the next weekend (19/20 July). Don't panic, it will come back, it is just being moved to a new, faster server
