Zing problems

Can you add the newish board Je Déteste Tout to zing? It doesn't show up as in "show all boards" and its threads only appear on zing if I have them bookmarked.

Ah sorry that’s a bug. Delete and reinstall it will show up

ok thanks that works!

stet, just fyi — something else funky in iOS 13: the “header” at top of forum view sometimes extends too far down, chopping off most of search bar:

good spot, will take a look thanks

NP, thx... one other thing I’ve noticed is text occasionally being cut off at the end of a thread title:

Zing has given up on French as of Sund4r’s post of an hour ago - « Nous voilà enfin débarrassés de tous ces amateurs » can only be opened in Safari now.

the font size is different in posts and reading threads, but is fine on post subjects and board listings etc. Should I reinstall?

Nm I’m an idiot

Nice update! :)

It looks like attempting to vote in a poll makes the app crash, fyi. Could just be my phone but that's the first time I've had the app turf out and it did each time I tried.

Sometimes I type something and then highlight it (to apply italics or a link), and all the text disappears?

^ what Old Lunch said. This prevented Eric Clapton from getting any votes in that recent dumb guitar poll

Can also confirm app crashes upon clicking a poll option. Thx!

Ditto on poll voting = app crashing

Fix is coming, sorry voters

no need to rush if it means people are prevented for voting from eric clapton in the meantime tbh

foreign interference in our elections will not be tolerated

yes it will

Still having the bug where I type a bunch of stuff, then click into it to edit something, and it all disappears :(

(no doubt for the best, given the quality of my posts)

Yeah - the fix for that is with apple, will be in the 4.2 update as soon as they release it. Sorry!

Ah, thanks!

Having a new issue: if I type until I reach the bottom of the window, it doesn’t “scroll,” and I can no longer see what I’m typing (the text disappears beneath the keyboard).

Other than not be so long-winded, any fix for this? Thx!

Hate it when that happens, especially when I accidentally do the swipe & erase. Sometimes I can switch to landscape mode, although last time I tried that zing died.

This is me testing the fix for the scrolling issue:
1
2
3
4
5
6 ...
Yes, it works now! Sorry about that.

I’m ready for different color & typeface themes to become available as in-app purchases.

I’m also ready for being able to zoom in on images 😕

speaking of images, long press on an inline image then “save to images” results in immediate crash

Ah, found it. It crashes because I haven't asked for permission to access your photo library. Better do that, then.

getting the “old or corrupted messages in this thread, Zing can’t deal” message in the Kelela - Cut 4 Me thread

(ah, I see I posted about this a year ago as well)

should be fixed now, ta

nice one, thank you!

Add a link to the FAQ somewhere?

need one of those on the site too

I am not entirely on board with zing now intuiting how to format text between slashes or text between asterisks

My opinion is that displaying format according to bbcode is fine but automatically converting non-bbcode “formatting” is trying too hard

stet, the bookmarks are still a bit out of order... am i correct in thinking they should be ordered by date post was first created? I'm regularly getting a few shuffling in at the bottom from 2020. Not a problem by any means but wondering what that means in terms of the code.

example here... may have something to do with the phrase "2020" in the post?

so this is an ilx issue but it seems like youtube doesn't embed unless it's https... any reason not to alter to embed http links as well? I think this is a new thing.

This thread, when opened in Zing, generates a warning message that it contains corrupted messages: Bruce Springsteen - Classic or Dud ?

Thanks, sorted

Thanks!

Omgggggg the quote option! Thank you so much!

YVW. Worth saying that you can also get quotes by hitting the "reply" arrow on an individual message, which also includes the message text. I don't think that was obvious to people.

Yes. seconded.

When you’re typing a post, how do you access the quick formatting options for bold, quote, etc.?

You can still get to the full composer by going into an individual post and hitting the reply button. (If you clear the quoted text it’s literally the old composer). But yes, better option coming soon.

Better must come

If you search (within a board), click into a thread found in the search results, and then back out of that thread, I think it used to take you back to the search results(?) Now it takes you to the New Answers page of the board, so you have to run the search again to try another thread…
