Fpn Board Software Upgrade


Admin

Recommended Posts

Dearest members of this little Fountain Pen Nuthouse on the digital prairie,

 

Recently, we upgraded the board software. We want to keep the software as up-to-date as possible, with a view to prevent hackers from doing any harm to our board.

 

However, a few things did not work anymore as they were supposed to, and that meant we had to reimport and recache skins. These actions, and the usual maintenance and backups, has just been carried out. This may have some consequences to several of our members, namely:

 

1) Skin selections such as Lo-Fi and IP.Board Mobile have to be redone, as previous selections may have well gotten lost in the process of reimporting and recaching.

 

2) Weird problems may occur, as items and actions not working as they used to, or even resulting in errors. In that case, please do empty your browser caches, as indicated here: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/115296-how-do-i-faq-under-development/page__p__1408317#entry1408317

 

So far this news item. In case of any further questions or problems, please do post those in Community Feedback, so we can help as quickly as possible resolving those.

 

Thank you all in advance!

 

Warm regards,

 

The FPN Admin Team

The only thing I noticed is that a topic that I stopped watching ages ago started sending me emails again.. But that was an easy fix.

 

Thanks for all of your hard work!

The Links in the Help menu are dead.

Could you please clean your browser cache as indicated above? They do work for me.

Thank you to all the Admin for keeping FPN going and running so smoothly!

 

The only thing I can see that is eating at me after the upgrade is seeing the "IP Board" banner instead of the FPN banner. That kink will get worked out, I'm sure.

Thanks, Kiavonne. That was due to reimporting the skin - fixed now.

I'm new to FPN and was using the iPad to access the Forum.

I can't seem to bring up the ipad keyboard to type within this text box I'm writing in now (I'm on my imac now)

I can however bring up the keyboard to type in the search box at the top right hand corner of the forum page

Is it a limitation of iPad / the forum's text box or am I doing anything wrong

Thanks

Apparently this is a problem of the iPad when used with Safari. Try FireFox or Opera, if you like; that should work.

 

HTH, warm regards, Wim

Hi

I found a work around. If you change the setting to IP.Board.Mobile or Lo.Fi (at the lower left corner of the bulletin board) the iPad keyboard will appear.

This is how this message is typed.

Hope this helps others using iPad on FPN

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o
    • adamselene
      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
