CUF Glitches

[Moliere]

Ha, AA has to get pre-approval to post on the board. What a loser!

[Jeff Lebowski]

When I last posted something in one of the non-public forums, my post showed up in a different color and a label stating that the post was "unapproved." Is anybody else seeing the same?

I saw one of these from another poster and approved it. Used to see it occasionally, but it has been a long time. Not sure why it is happening again. Will try to stay on top of it, but if you send me a PM to me or one of the mods, we can approve.

Unfortunately, if your work has a poorly configured or overly aggressive filter there isn't much that can be done on the CS end. I'm wondering if it's the actual URL it doesn't like, or something in the HTTP response it doesn't like (i.e. a thread with an embedded link to a bad site is showing up in the New Topics results and triggering the filter)?

A couple of things you might try:

• Login in to CS from someplace that isn't work (home, mobile device, whatever). Mark the forums as read so you shouldn't get any results in the New Topics link. Then use your work browser to try the New Topics link again.
• Inspect/investigate the HTTP request/response when you click the New Topics link. Is there something in the headers or something in the body of the response that may not be rendered by the browser but will give you more info about why the filter thinks its phishing?

I tried this, still blocked.

The "New Topics" link is blocked by my work's filters.

not sure why. I can access the rest of the site. the reason it lists for blocking it is "phishing".

That is odd. I wonder why?

Uh huh. Sure. More fish stories.

More of a CS as opposed to a CUF glitch, but does anyone else have issues with posting pictures and then they don't show up later? I posted one yesterday from my phone, but I don't see it when I'm on CS on my desktop. I also noticed one previously posted pic has gone, both when I look on my phone and a desktop.

Just fish pics so it's no big deal, but it's happened twice now.

Same thing for me lately. I need to get us on a new hosting service and then upgrade to VB5. I am hoping to do it over thanksgiving or christmas.

I've been running into the following error periodically lately while attempting to access CS:

Error 520 - CougarStadium.jpg

In case the picture is too small, here's the text:

that's cool. it appears roughly 150 on an average week day.

[Jeff Lebowski]

lebowski, out of curiousity, about how many posts does CS average on a given week day?

I forgot about this. It is in the admin control panel.

No idea. I don't track that.
