Post your bug reports here - 2009

I would like to review all the website and SEO articles but can't figure out what category they are in. There have been so many great and very helpful articles. Thanks!

I have been encountering inconsistent formatting results when using to italicize. Sometimes success, sometimes is included in the post. Firefox 3.0.7 on Mac OS X (10.5.5).

I am frustrated....again. I have a 950 word article to post, and I keep getting the same error message of having over 1500 words. I've tried the following:

cutting and pasting from Word into the Word Box...all I get is a bunch of "code" in the front end, and some of the paragraphs went missing.

So I pasted the article into a draft email in Outlook, and then re-pasted. Same message.

Then I cut it out all together, and pasted it into the article box directly. same error message.

I even started all over again....

I've spent too much time on this...almost more than the original writing of the article. help!

Thank you!

ohmigoodness, Christian. sigh it did not work..I am still getting the error message, and the formatting from notepad was all messed up too.

I think I'll take a walk and try again later? I've now spent three hours trying to publish this.

anything else I can do?

Thanks

Two questions, Christian: 1) Volume on the front page video - (yeah, the one I'm on!). I've had several people (hmm, all MAC users btw) tell me it's not loud enough, they can't hear it. Don't know if you can adjust that. (first time anyone ever told me I was too quiet!) 2) Is it possible to do a search of your (my) emails. I had someone tell me "I sent you that in the first Biznik email I ever sent you"... so either I need a way to search my emails for a particular phrase, OR be able to organize my emails by sender. Are either possible? Thanks! Dave Kuhns, writer and web content consultant

Here's another question: I just attended a huge workshop on Referrals. When I look at my profile, there's no way to give a referral at all. Why not? I know it used to be there.
ALSO, looking at my scorecard of referrals, I've used the tool previously to send at least a dozen referrals.. yet only one shows up. Why?
Thanks! Dave Kuhns, writer and web content consultant http://www.cyranowriter.com

I strongly second the suggestion to search Biznik messages.

And btw, I TOTALLY appreciate how the messages now actually display their text in my email inbox. Thank you so much for adding that feature!

Under "Who's Viewing Your Profile" today I see:

"No one has viewed your profile in the last week. To attract more attention, complete your profile and participate in the community."

I know people have viewed my profile because I'm getting sign-ups for events. Thanks for your help with this!

Debbie,

Please take a look at your profile page. I've updated the code just a bit. Three items to note:

1. We record profile views when the first page of your profile is visited. If members are following links in emails directly to your events to RSVP they would not be recorded as profile views. The profile page is likely the page others will find when using search engines to discover your Biznik profile. Which leads me to point #2.

2. Most users visiting your profile will likely be people who have yet to join Biznik (or have not logged in). I've added in the records for these 'unidentified visitors' so you can get a sense of how successful the SEO is for your profile.

3. The profile view information updates daily.

Hope this helps!

I am finding it impossible to load an image on the front page of ARTISTS IN THE DROVES

I'm a new member, and I can't seem to upload my profile photo. It just loads and loads ... It's only 92 kb, and I can't find a size limit in the FAQ. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hey all... a persistent bug: every time I try to post a discussion/article response, or even a message, I see that it is being processed, but then I just see the original posting box, with the "send" or "post" buttons and "cancel" or "delete" buttons, etc. It doesn't seem to post. So I have been known to--and I've noticed this with other biznik posters and message senders--press the send or post button again.

What happens is it double posts or sends out two messages.

For now, I am pressing the send button, then waiting a tic, then copying what I sent (just in case it gets lost) , then refreshing the page to see if it is posted, or I am going to my outbox to see if a message was sent

But that seems like a tedious way to see whether I posted or not.

comprehende'?

I just did this again...I tried to post the above, and nothing seemed to happen. But when I refreshed the page....there it was! Hmmm...

We'll take a look Elke. Thanks for the notice.

I am having issues with my blog showing up on my profile. The first time I did this, everything showed up dandy, title and content. (It happened to be from www.Brooklynartproject.com, one of those templated sites that all look the same, but allow anyone to create an instant community around a topic. It is definitely not biz nik).

My current blog URL is a page within my website, which is a template creation, namely blinkweb.
The blog on my profile appears to hanging there permantantly or not show up at all. Stangely, clicking on the hanging text will take someone to my blog. But the text or titles do not show up on my profile. I have tried both http://www and just www., perhaps I need to list my url differently?

So...I'm trying to upload a 12Kb image to my profile to no avail. It just loads and loads. Source code reveals an error telling the action to abort.

My profile keeps showing I have an email that I haven't read yet. I have read all of them and the email icon still shows unread mail.
