Yikes! Deprecation!!
What's happening, avatars disappearing, general weirdness and wobbly stuff, and being deprecated by the good old Downs??
Run around panic and freak out!

It's happening to me too! :( And the box around my typing is white! It's supposed to be black! And the Downs is now larger than my screen, so I have to scroll horizontally - this only ever happens on threads with huge pictures in them.
The deprecation and the whie box and the screen were there in the morning (and now it's night), but now I can't see Rumil's avatar either. Panic! ETA: ...But I can see Legate's and Sally's and Agan's and some others' avvies. Weird. But the quote function is also weird - it outlines quotes in white. And the titles of the threads look like I'm in compatibility mode (ie there is no underlining, only bolding). Very weird. Quote:

The admins are aware of the situation and are looking for solutions. If any member/s know how this can be fixed, please post your ideas here. Thank you!

I don't know much about computer but it seem to be an issue in the cript for the page... I notcied everyone is getting the same numbers:
Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in /home/barrowwight/public_html/forum.barrow/includes/init.php on line 48 line 96 line 100 line 108 line 119 line 123 line 131 line 200 line 413 line 2381 line 1538 Don't know if that helps... |
Well, I asked our IT guy at work about this. Unfortunately, website design is not his forte, so he was pretty much at a loss.
I know hardly anything about the matter myself, but I guess it's not as simple as looking at the indicated lines and examining them for errors. :( |
Actually, the only avatar I can't see is Rumil's. :p
The forum looks normal to me, apart from the deprecation messages. |
Sorry for the double post, I submitted before thinking of trying to find a solution myself. I'm not familiar with php and you may already have found all this, but here are some links (in chronological order from newest to oldest) just in case they're any help.

Some of those lines appear to affect color, so that could account for the changed backgrounds and so forth.

Upgrading is the likely solution to this problem. I'll see what that would cost and what steps would need to be taken to do it and reply here. In the meantime, I hope everyone will have patience.
|
I'm as much use as a chocolate teapot at these sorts of things so can only wish the mods the best of luck!
For me (in Explorer 10 for my sins) the colours are all right (except while writing a post strangely where the frame for the text box is white ?!) but everyone's avatars are missing. |

A cucumber would be able to figure out the issue faster than I would. Anyone who I've skyped/chatted with online can probably testify to how computer illiterate I am ("Why isn't it working?" "Because you didn't turn it on!" "How do I turn it on?" "You press the button that says [...]!" "Where's the button?"...) Like Rumil I wish the mods and admins luck with this, and I'd gladly help so long as it's something I can actually do. |
Upgrading is the likely solution, and I think I could work it out. I've figured it out before.
The upgrade costs $209. Shall we have a bake sale? |

Ditto about paypal, but I have some cash put away, and I don't mind sending a couple bills for the Downs' sake...
