developer (ChrisB) started the topic FYI, some new anti-spam measures coming soon in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Just an FYI that we’re implementing additional anti-spam measures soon. It’s our goal to do this without creating hassles for legitimate users, and we’ve shaped our plan around that. However, changes like this don’t always go perfectly to plan. So if you notice issues over the next couple of weeks please reply here or DM me and we’ll try to make…[Read more]

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Banner Upload Failure in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 1 year, 6 months ago
Another update. It appears that the cover image feature is accidentally blocked by a wordpress plugin that we use to prevent spam signups and spam activity. Meaning, it’s blocked for everyone, and not that any of us is trying to spam the forum. Because that anti-spam plugin is overall a really helpful thing, and because it may take a lot of…[Read more]

The team updated me this morning that they’re still trying to figure it out and fix it (we host the forum on WordPress, and our hosting company provides support on WordPress issues like this).

Thanks for letting us know about this, and sorry for delayed reply. The web developers are working to fix this, I’ll post an update once they do.

developer (ChrisB) started the topic Recent Forum Problems (should be resolved now) in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 2 years, 3 months ago
We’ve seen some page load problems on the forum recently. For example the page header (menu) would load, but not the forum content. Our hosting provider diagnosed it as needing more memory available on our server, and so they have increased that. Please reply here if you hit problems with page loads or other tech issues.

developer (ChrisB) started the topic FYI: Technical issues that auto-hide some Topics and Replies in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 4 years, 9 months ago
For some reason, some new Topics and Replies are automatically hidden (put in to a queue for moderators to review). We’re working to figure this out and fix it, and it appears that it’s a continuation of a problem from a couple of weeks ago, that we thought we had already fixed.
The common thread seems to be that the Topic or Reply contains a…[Read more]

Still trying to figure this one out, just fyi, and happy Friday

A quick update (although not yet a solution). We’re working to solve the root problem, but until then:
- Avoid using the toolbar button to create a link; this seems to trigger the problem (replies are hidden, until manually approved by a moderator)
HUGE thanks to MarcH and Airscapes for their troubleshooting, which has led to this discovery.

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Forum "bug" noticed in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 4 years, 9 months ago
Thanks all, for your great troubleshooting. It seems that any topic or reply that includes links is automatically removed until it’s approved by a moderator.
But I don’t know why this has started to happen. We run several anti-spam plugins, any one of which could’ve received a recent update that changes its behavior. So I’m in the process of…[Read more]

Just a note to say that, whatever is happening, it isn’t intentional. I’m looking into it, but don’t have any working theories yet.

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Leather Strop Maintenance in the forum Strops 4 years, 10 months ago
Hi All – Quick admin note, to try and avoid any confusion. While I think this is a great thread, I (the “Developer” profile) didn’t originally create it. As it was from 2015, and we’ve updated our forum a couple of times, migrating old posts as we go, many of the old posts got reassigned to my profile as the original user no longer had an…[Read more]

I think this is one for a support ticket with the Wicked Edge team, https://support.wickededgeusa.com/portal/newticket.
I hope you’re able to get it back up and functioning soon.

Hi Keith – Welcome! It’s Chris, and I’m glad I could help.
I also used my WE on kitchen knives, for the most part. I’ve brought back-to-life a couple of cheap paring knives, and a 9″ butcher knife, and several in between.

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Attachment Request in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 5 years, 10 months ago
Thanks for the input, we always appreciate it when forum members provide usability requests (for background, I help keep the forum up and running; and for usability, I’m in kind of a facilitator role, but not the decision maker, which is in Clay’s bailiwick).
For attachments, we’ve really emphasized making them usable as embedded content in the…[Read more]
