Tuesday Update

[Scott Greczkowski]

Hey Gang!

Got a lot done in the past 24 hours, and still have some more to do! Its amazing to think that I was able to upload new software and reprogram it without taking the site down at all.

I am very happy with this upgrade and am happy to report it fixed a number of bugs we were having, including the SENT ITEM's bug that many were having with private messages. Other big bugs on the backend of the software were also squished which helps us serve you better.

I have reinstalled the arcade from scratch and the Arcade is now once again open for your pleasure! I should note that while it was reinstalled we did not lose any games or high score data.

I installed a new state of the art portal system, this portal which is used for our main homepage has lots more features then our old system and allows us to add new features to our homepages quickly without the need of major coding!

I have also installed the new Spell Checker which we tried installing a few weeks ago, this new spell checker is a lot more friendly and works with ALL editors including the WYSIWYG editor! (My thanks to LER for installing the PSPELL module needed to make this work)

While I have been very busy I still have some work to do, stuff that needs to be finished is....

1) Reinstall our SatelliteGuys Members Home Theater Feature

2) Make a new skin for our VOOM forum

3) Reinstall the side Google Ads which is only seen by Unregistered members (We need to pay the bill's and if people dont want to see the ads they just need to register.)

4) Do some more fixing up of the look of the board

5) Finish intrograting our new "Contest software" with vBulletin so that we can bring all of our members "The Summer of Satellite Love!"

Rome was not built in a day, but I am proud with all I got done in 24 hours, we went from bare code to a full feature set in less then 24 hours and I can't complaign about that.

If you see anything strange or if something is no working PLEASE let me know so i can fix it.

Thanks for your support of SatelliteGuys!

(BTW sorry, I know I installed a Spell Check, but I didn't have time to use it... have to run and get the kids from Daycare.)

whatupwitthat?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Whoops need to fix that...

Forgot an <iF> ..... </if> statement.

Spell Check doesn't seem to work. I am getting run-time errors all the time...
Actually it only works if there is a single line of text...

And as before, there is no "Spell Check" button during message editing. Spell check is only available when creating a new message

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I will fix it tommorow, all the code is at my office.

I had problems adding an image to a post as indicated in that post I put a note at the bottom of that message.

Scott,

Keep up the good work and thanks for improving our satellitegus.us viewing experience.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I have been racking my brain all day trying to get the spell checker to work.

Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.

For the time being I have temporarly removed the spell check feature (It WILL return!)

I am working with the author of the Spellcheck to get this problem fixed ASAP.

 

[Neutron]

Please fix the resolution problem in the Arcade.

 

[BenDee]

Am I hallucinating, or is chat gone?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Whoops forgot to put chat back in the navagation bar.

Let me do that now.

 

[Ilya]

I see the spell-checker is now operational! Great! I missed it a lot...
And even the "Party" smilie works now! Thanks Scott! @party

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes just put in the spell checker. And I believe I got it working throughout the site.

I also fixed the Party Smile...

I also upgraded the look of our VOOM forums to look sort of like VOOM.COM's site. (I am awfully proud of our VOOM area)

I am also working behind the scenes on our Contest software so we can roll out The Summer of Love contest on Thursday.

Busy day! (And busy here as well, I believe I saw at one point we had 1200 users on-line at a time!)

The only thing I dont like is that you have to go to a pull down and select new posts. I like having it out there to click on without having to go to a pull down.
