Yes, and as soon as it's fixed, you're gonna get the negging of a lifetime.

Sorry, there was a problem reacting to this content.

 

[immamac 42835]

seems very intermittent - retry after it gives you the error for now.

[markstanco 12571]

On top of the site:

[[Template tapatalk/front/tapatalk/tapatalk_smartbanner is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]

And now gone.  Good work, that was fast.

I see its being worked on...but yeah tapa has been borked all day...having to restart like every 15mins or so when it freezes up

[immamac 42835]

Hmm - what happens in Tapa? that could be what's borking the top of the normal site too.

[Pato del Muerto 52485]

Still having issues with the banner error and viewing tweets. Chrome on iPhone. 

[immamac 42835]

What is your issue viewing tweets? they now lazy load so they aren't going to "just be there" until you scroll to them.

[WhatTheBuck 28775]

Tapatalk sounds like it sucks. 

[immamac 42835]

agreed - now that you can upload from mobile as a subscriber idk why the fuck you would use tapatalk - I've also enabled RSS feeds so there's legit 0 reason to use it.

[immamac 42835]

I also can't turn off ads on tapatalk - where if you are a member here you don't have ads

There seems to be a delay between when I make a post and when the forum view updates.

I just posted this: 

But as of 4:24 PM Central this is what the football board looks like: 

[Sbbruin 21829]

I'm also getting double posts, or rather, my post will show, but the same post is loaded and ready to be posted again, so I have to delete it to clear it out.

[immamac 42835]

I believe template caching was to blame for a lot of this shit. it's off now.

[Machinator 32099]

Just happened again, I posted this but it's not showing at the top of the forum: 

 

[Machinator 32099]

Same with this:

 

[immamac 42835]

That's really strange because I didn't do anything that would effect that and seemingly all over the site those things are still fine?

[bschoolprof 6252]

How am I going to get every imaginable tweet/social media post connected to Longhorn fandom if Machinator's shit is borked? 

[Pato del Muerto 52485]

I blame blacklab’s AMA for all that’s come after.

It actually works out well for you; I can see my recent posts but others might not be able to notice.

[immamac 42835]

machinators shit should be unborked

[Radical Larry 28558]

Have you thought about plugging Machinator into the server?

Negative, I'm still getting the phantom double posts that @Sbbruin mentioned above.

I plugged myself into your mom last night.

[SilasCoade 2622]

Lazy loading Twitter posts seems to have helped my experience at least so fuck all y'all.

[immamac 42835]

double post borkage is better than not showing up in the recent borkage?

I have reverted basically everything back except lazy loading and the new features for adding images and shit. We are back on elasticsearch for search instead of mysql (which was causing some borks I think)

[Machinator 32099]

I'm still seeing it on this board (your most recent post isn't showing up in forum view).

I'm also still seeing the "[[Template tapatalk/front/tapatalk/tapatalk_smartbanner is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]" banner.

[Parliament 14243]

Slow as shit and search doesn't work. Come on, guys.

[immamac 42835]

I'm disabling tapa for now. The new version is obviously a piece of shit. 

[TexArcher 37767]

That was a serious Russian bork bot invasion.  And the bastards did it during the home run derby.  

[RPM 26317]

[burntorangebongos 10710]

man, shit was really megaborked.  I couldn't even logged in.

[NotActuallyALonghorn 4975]

See this? An extra bank of links. And "Politics" is about the same location as "Daily Texan" is supposed to be. What kind of cruel trick is this?

Is there any chance that the comments can come back? Too much liability? Too many clicks? 

Tor only gave you a dot. Still got a dot, but that's it. 

Edit: don't know what you did to fix the All Activity or subscription threads, but it's cool now.

[immamac 42835]

I think the comments are pretty toxic unless we basically make gray rep a thing and you can leave a comment on the gray rep. 

[DaysOff 7947]

Please fix tapa. It's all I use. I'm sitting in front of a large computer screen at a desktop like my grandmother.

It's been shit software for 6 years now.

You broke it again. 

[C-Man 27188]

Tapa still off?

Is for me.  The borkage is cresting.

I like Tapa because I have an iPhone 7 and Surly/Safari is a PITA because it's small and requires lots of scrolling the screen.

[immamac 42835]

I'm going to reintroduce Tapa - but it may be on a totally different webhost/server so it doesn't fuck with the main board like it did yesterday. All the gremlins immediately went away when I uninstalled the plugin.

That's not what was done in the first place? What's the limiting factor on how many boxes/VM's the site runs on? Just computing resources or is the site constrained by the colo facilities it's hosted in? It's a no-brainer to have different hosts serving different interfaces to content so you can modify/adjust configurations without borking everything.

The way that Invision Community works is it wants all the web hosts to be the same config (previous borkage when CSS wasn't the same on the webhosts - solved going to our new setup w/ shared storage) the new borkage is because I updated the version of tapatalk and it doesn't like the current version of IPB. Just kinda dumb how the 2 software companies don't play nice together.

We've got plenty of capacity to just have it off on its own, but the problem is more in the way the software is architected than the infrastructure unfortunately.

Well that sucks ass. Did they stop improving forum software circa 2005 or something? That's such a shitty antipattern for reliability and durability.
