Questions/Issues/Wishlists for BFP

[Hollylane]

Two issues...

Gallery...

For the past two days, I have been attempting to upload a few new photos from my hikes. I'm not doing anything differently, my photos are the right size and file type, and my membership says unlimited for photos. Each time I try to upload, it says "preparing to process image list" (I'm only uploading one photo at a time), and then it says "Upload successful". Yet, my photo is not in the gallery. Hmmm....

IPhone...

I log out of BFP on my home computer, and my IPhone (which is utilizing my home wifi) keeps me logged in. When I try to log out, or simply close the browser on the IPhone that is displaying BFP, it locks up my browser to the point that I have to reboot my phone. Anyone else having this issue and know a workaround?

Thank you in advance

My phone will log me out of the site and when I use my laptop after logging out on my phone, I get logged out there, too! Like you my laptop and phone use the same Wifi connection...

I've asked around the geeks I know and they've suggested it could be because the ISP is being used by two softwares.

I try giving 15-30 minutes before logging in on either my phone or laptop; doesn't seem to work that well.

Is this on the iPhone Safari browser or another one? I wonder if it's because they are both on the same wireless. Can you switch the phone to non-wireless (that is, set it to 3G only) and do the same steps to see if the browser locks up again or not?

I've tried setting to 3G and it still happens, other times I get a blank white page. I'm on Android so wonder if it's the phone...

Your situation is slightly different than Holly's I think. It could be the phone (app/browser, most likely) since I can use multiple browsers on the same or different systems to connect to the site without issue. I do, however, keep myself logged in always so that might be why I don't see the issue.

Gallery...

BTW...I am posting the photos from my PC, not my IPhone.

IPhone...

I attempted what you described (great idea BTW) on 3G only, and experienced the same problem. It is the IPhone 4 with Safari browser. I also tried logging out on PC, then logging out on IPhone, then I tried logging out of the IPhone, followed by logging out on the PC. Same results. Locked browser, required power cycling.

I'll have to investigate the gallery stuff more.

As for the iPhone, what happens if you log out of PC and then log into iPhone? I think there is a cookie confusion going on by being logged in via two locations and then changing one to be logged out.

Same result. I'm thinking it is related to Safari. It must be.

Ya. That definitely points to a browser at this point. As much as I don't want to upgrade to vBulletin 4.0, it may be worthwhile since there is a mobile version of vBulletin included with the 4.x version.

I will look into that. Thank you for coming up with some more troubleshooting ideas Linus.

I'll keep checking on the gallery issue.

Update...

I sized the photo differently, and was able to post it. The only thing that remains a mystery, is why it kept saying the original photo was uploaded successfully.

Ya. I've seen that before. I think it's the developer of our gallery mod didn't use proper error messages. It should issue an error of some type.
