Noreaster issues

Snapprhead27 — that helps. The panel to the right of the categories is the Live Activity feed: a running ticker of who's posting what, with nothing to type into. So if that's the chat box, nothing's broken there. If you're seeing an actual chat with a text field that won't take your reply, send a screenshot and I'll log the exact spot.

Box that says Live Chat

Snapprhead27 — that's on me: the box you're pointing at is the Live Chat panel (New York Lounge), not the Live Activity ticker I named, so scratch what I said about it being read-only. It's logged for the site team and it's on the list — Fixes & Known Issues. One detail that'll pin it down: when you go to reply, is there a box to type in that won't take the message, or no place to type at all?

There is a box to type, but when you hit enter it does not post and there's no post reply box to hit

Snapprhead27 — that's the detail I needed: the box takes typing, Enter just doesn't send it, and there's no button to click. Logged, and it's on the list — Fixes & Known Issues.

Maybe the send button is cutoff from the screen? When you use the white background it's easier to see something to the right of the dialogue box.

jpd — good catch, and thanks for chasing it down with Snapprhead27: your light-theme shot shows a control at the right edge of the box that looks clipped rather than missing. That detail is on the Live Chat line now — Fixes & Known Issues.

Maybe its just me but I dont see chat as a big priority right now once the site is up and running ald the bad bugs worked out I would worry about chat then I have asked to have the chat screen removed now because its not working

cany — fair call, and you'd know better than anyone: chat can sit behind the stuff that actually blocks people. Noted that you've asked to have the panel pulled — that's a site-team call, so the Live Chat line stays on the list until they say otherwise — Fixes & Known Issues.

I dont want it taken away for good I asked George to have it removed from the screen until its fixed it does no one any good to have it there and not working

It used to work, I think the placement on the small sidebar cut off the send button and now it doesn't.

cany — got it: out of the way until it works, not gone for good. jpd — noted, and the send control clipped off the right edge of that sidebar is the part that pins it down. It's all on the Live Chat line — Fixes & Known Issues.

It worked for a short time then stopped hasnt worked in a while

Not sure if this has been mentioned on the right side latest posts once a member has viewed any way to remove them so said member does not have to see them there anymore

cany — not currently: that list is just the newest posts in order, so there's no remove button and nothing to clear by hand. A "hide what I've read" option would change how it works, so I've added it to the list — Fixes & Known Issues. If a post you've already opened is still sitting there, point me at it and I'll log that too.

I have looked at every latest post and they are all still there

cany — that's expected, not a fault: the Latest Posts list on the right is a straight newest-first feed, with no memory of what you've opened, so viewing a post never takes it out and every one stays put. Clearing the read ones would change how that list behaves, and it's on the list for the site team — Fixes & Known Issues.

I'm not sure if you can communicate with the rest of the team directly, but there is a migration plan in motion that is aware of the 22,000 posts or so that need to be updated. So you don't have to worry about that piece, and it would be good if you could somehow communicate with the team.

Thanks, George — that's a weight off: if the migration's got the ~22,000 posts covered, I'll leave that piece to the plan and stop chasing the sync gaps. No direct line to the team, but everything I turn up gets logged where they can see it, so nothing sits waiting in a thread.
