Bugs you found, and changes I made

Just thought I'd create this thread where you can post any bugs or problems with the site you encounter. And also for me to post any big changes I made.
109 replies and 28 files omitted.

Fixed small bug where posting without body would fail. Hopefully not too many were affected by this.
Working on the AAC file detect addition but have to spend a little time on it in case other already uploaded files would be affected by change.

Updated code so AAC should now be detected and correctly assigned to file extension. I kept all current potential AAC files already uploaded as MP3 since I will have to write a script to check all files and update the database to reflect this (something I probably will do in conjunction with next version of board code).

Did some updates on the server. Hopefully the short downtime didn't affect too many people and that everything is running as it should now.
Please let us know if something isn't working as it should.

Pupper, threads randomly won't bump, neither in the Overview or Catalog.
It happened again just a few minutes ago.
In the Corona thread, post >>352419 was made at 00:44:14 and it didn't bump.
On top of it are:
- Humor Thread: post >>352416 at 23:58:42

Sage don't need to go in all fields. The sage in all fields is just a meme because many don't know where to put it.
The semi-unrelated bug I found was that if a post came after the saged' post and it was deleted the sage would not be applied and would bump the thread. So it was not a loss looking into it, but will probably not fix until next version of code unless I find time to add the change into current.

It never did. It's the same as 4chan. That was just a meme perpetuated by a handful of Anons who wanted to express their distaste for certain threads, and a few smoothbrains who use it in response to certain posts (as if you can sage a post).
Personally I never liked it, because announcing sages is obnoxious, imo. Sage is supposed to be a method to reply to shitty threads without bumping that thread to give it undeserved attention, and to prevent sliding good threads; it is not a downvote.

That's my post. I can confirm it was saged.
I sage on this board a lot, mostly out of habit. I generally sage threads by default unless I consciously find a reason to bump it. It's a habit I brought from trying to maintain quality on 4/pol/ to avoid slide threads that I still have even after all these years.
Anonymous

>but why would you sage that thread?
I saved it because it is a general, and since it is a general it will inevitably get bumped, and therefore it does not need my help to bump it. It's just what I do.

Don't look like there is a good way to do that, one would hope browsers would use alt text on images for search but they don't. I will do some testing and checking if there is a way but the ones I've tested won't "highlight" image only say there is a text matching the text and roughly where it is.

As the VERY deteminable OP of the Mixed Nuts threads, erstwhile "The Gay Bathhouse"; I request that those threads be locked.
A spambot is clearly designed to bump old threads with nonsense, and they are a frequent (though not exclusive) target. There SHOULD be no reason to further post in those threads as they have run their course, so the permission to add to them isn't really necessary anymore. I certainly won't be posting to them,...

>A thread watcher is a double edged sword, and proliferates low quality bumps
same with (you) notifications. Before you know it, it turns into reddit. I quit X-chan because I was paranoid about browser fingerprinting and realized that it's better to post without it.
thread watchers and (you) notifications proliferate egoposting and dick measuring contests where anons are no longer trying to engage in intellectual discourse for the sake of truth--they simply want to one up each other at all cost. When you contribute to a thread, you partake in a discussion about the thread's topic: it's about the topic, not your ego or you trying to be right and proving everyone else wrong. No, you're there to contribute meaningful thought for the benefit of the bread. If you need a thread watcher or (you) notifications, you're more interested in what people think of your thoughts rather than unspooling the thread and see where the discussion leads. It enables selfish posters and we need less of those.

The thread watcher counts your own reply as a new unread message.

It should only count new replies after the bottom of the auto updater. and it's not really updating properly. For instance, if I look at this thread, there is no new replies but the thread watcher is still showing (2) unread after hitting the bottom of the page.
