Blank Screen After Posting
 

I have noticed that I very often get the black screen after posting when my post is the first post of a new page in the thread. There must be some code that adds your post to the end of the page you posted on without refreshing the whole page like it used too.
Maybe someone with the right access level could check what happens when it decides your post will be the first on the new page.

I get that too every time it's a fresh page. the only way out of it is to press go or click on a menu or different page.
Hopefully roy will update soon, the new forum software is fast and doesn't stick at all.

whys your writing purple willow?

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

It may be an intermittent fault, software/server? I just done a couple of tests with the option of 5 posts per page and it appeared fine.
As a rule I have my option set at 30 posts per page, the default setting is 15.
You can change this option to what ever you like by going into your user cp and select Edit Options --> “Number of Posts to show Per Page” it’s a long shot but you never know, maybe something is tripping up on a certain value worth a try for the time being. :idunno:

it was supposed to say blank not black, I was having a brain dead moment, one of many :D

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

I have changed it Len to try out. All I need know is a thread with 29 posts in to try it :D

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

Ok I found one in the games forum with 29 posts. As soon as I clicked post quick reply my post appeared of a fraction of a second then the whole page when white and is said stopped in the status bar. I am using Firefox by the way.

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

Just a thought. Are other people getting the same thing? On seeing the blank white screen click back then submit the post again causing a double post.

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

Just testing with this post to see what happens.

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

I went into a practice area and selected 5 posts per page and then did the tests I’m also using firefox. I’ll try it again and see what happens. Apart from that, it’s a bit over my head, sorry mate.

:)

Re: posts per page
 

You can alter the amount of posts per page or see how many posts per page in user panel > options.

Mines running at 50 posts per page at the moment:D

Re: posts per page
 

mines 100.... and people say... my message on page 2 .. or this thread has 8 pages..... hmmm duh :)

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

It sometimes happens to me so what I do if I think it's happened is copy the text in the post (just in case - i.e. highlight it and ctrl-c) then go to New Posts and usually it's there. If it's not I paste the text in to the box and post again.

It only seems to happen to me when it's a particularly long post and I've taken time writing it. If it's a short one it doesn't seem to matter where in the thread it is.

Re: posts per page
 

Hehehe i get the same although i thought i'd have to scroll a lot:eek::D

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

I don't think its accyweb, I think it's the actuall software burnley used to do it before neal upgraded, so do several other forums on v bulletin. The new release is very smooth and very fast.

Re: posts per page
 

I also have 100 to a page, it is a nuisance on the odd occasion when a thread gets to 98 and you have to scroll through :p

Re: posts per page
 

I have mine set to 10 a page because the scrolling through was driving me mad.

Re: posts per page
 

Just press the end key on your keyboard and it takes you to the end of the page :rolleyes: :p

Re: posts per page
 

Yeah I know that neil but it can take a while for it to load all the posts, obviously not talking minutes are anything. have also got into the habit of using the view first unread post button too :)

Re: posts per page
 

i started using that too, I never bothered till it was pointed out on here but its very useful. I keep forgeting about the end key, its page down on here.
What I do miss is my 5 button trackball, I never have been able to find one in uk, by the time I have, the obligatory 6 months will be up and I'll have got round to fixing the old one.

Re: posts per page
 

Another option on a wheel mouse is some you can press the wheel down then just move the mouse down a touch and it will auto scroll

Re: Blank Screen After Posting
 

it nearly always happens when i do a long post, the ruddy thing vanishes and being a numpty i dont know how to do that gayle,so i have to type the sodding thing again, thats why ive started doing mainly short ones.:(
