Does blocking private chat in privacy block this? If not, can we have an option to? I am usually hidden when I am on anyhow but voice/video chatting is even more not happening with me than text chatting.


e.g. this:




This should be active in the next release.

How do I get the ‘Interact with’ section to display under my profile?


It's not present when you visit your own page. It only appears on your friends.

Hi

I have added a new experimental feature for Video (or audio only) Chat. This is available for chatting with your friends for all paying subscribers. You should see the option listed in their Interact With section.



When you enter the chat, your audio and video will be muted. If you would prefer this option disabled, let me know.

Users on mobile devices will be prompted to download the app (from jitsi), you don't need to install this. Instead choose the option to open in the browser.

I've had limited tests on this (thanks @Natalya Von!), so please provide feedback below.

Happy chatting.

This should be working again now. There was a breaking configuration setting that was blocking their bot.

I was never any good estimation, ask my project manager

We had to jump to a major version of MongoDB, which meant installing a few minor versions to perform the migration.

Hopefully things should be zipping along nicely on our shiny new hardware.
Code Monkey
I need to get our database moved onto a new server. This will take a few hours to migrate all the data.
The main site will be unavailable from 5:00pm PT for about 6 hours.
Thanks.
Code Monkey
Thanks guys. The queue was locked for some odd reason. Needed a boot in the rear.
Should be functioning again now.

Hi Gav

This appears to be happening again.
I'm not following an author nor am I following the contributing author but I got an email telling me I was.

Just thought I'd flag it again.

Susie ?


I'll DM you...

I'm reasonably positive that the Popular and Viewed tabs on the category pages used to have more than one page. Latest and Recommended still do, but clicking "Next" on Popular or Viewed just reloads the first page. Same happens on the front page, now that I've tested that.

Bug? Intentional?


Thanks RR. Definitely not intentional. Part of the optimizations recently was to perform range based queries where possible. This only works for the latest as its ordered by a timestamp.

Fixing...

Can do. I'll send him a message and see what he says.



Thanks for your instigative analysis (especially Clum).

I have identified the issue you reported in the code. There was special case handling around the home page view, that was not also present in the category filtered view.
I shall upload a patch to close this hole.

Thanks!!
Code Monkey
Thanks for the report (Liz).

I think I've found the issue causing the mails to not move. Can you please try again for me.

Hi, is there a glitch in lush?
I got a message saying I was following an author and they had published a story but I'm not following them.

Any ideas why I'm getting random story suggestions?

Cheers ?


Can you send me the details of the message please. Its being sent out to the author and any contributing authors following lists.

There is definitely some strange going on, I keep getting the same message over and over:



This is 4 separate replies to comments you made on a story, this is unrelated.

Here's a few site improvement ideas:

> Within a chat window, you can share a pic that's online by copying and pasting the image address.
Would be nice to be able to share a pic that's saved on your computer / phone by browse/attach/send.

> Would be nice for couples to have a joint account where the profile parameters include options to reflect that
(aka - Sex field could be "couple" instead of male OR female;

> Would be nice if you could segment members by categories of how they prefer to be viewed OR their interest
e.g. - separate categories for: lesbians, cross-dressers/sissies, groups/multiples, straight only
That way we all wouldn't have to sort through the flotsam of people we don't have interest in.

> When viewing your own profile, it would be nice to be able to limit the number of profiles that show under the "Following" field (like you can with how many Friends - can set how many you prefer to have displayed on your profile). Just have to have it consistent in terms of options between those categories.

> When posting comments or images on friends pages, would be nice to have the "Emoji" link there to be able to choose emoji's to add and show on your posting. Right now without that link, the only way to add an emoji is if you know the code for each to type it in the text field which is a pain.

> When creating a personal photo album, seems you have to add images one at a time. Would be nice to be able to add multiple at a time (10, 25, 50) that you may have saved on your computer.

> Wish we could easily add other movie clip files when posting comments to a friends profile page. Can understand those might me really big so could maybe limit them to below a certain file size.


Oh and specifically regarding Lush website performance and status:

> ALL of us would love more site stability !! System goes down or freezes far too frequently.

> For times when part of the site / certain features have problems, would be really nice if somewhere at the top of the homepage, that Lush Tech Support could display a "System Status" line or field so members know what's the problem, what Tech Support is doing to troubleshoot the problem, and an estimate when service will be fully restored.

> If Lush is completely down, would be nice if Tech Support could display a generic page during the outage to communicate status comments as in prior bullet above.

------------------

Enough for now, hope this is useful feedback for the Lush system staff.

Oh and specifically regarding Lush website performance and status:

i have spent the last few weeks refactoring code, much of it hasn't been touched in years. i've found a number of places to improve the stability of the main site. still some way to go, but i hope you've seen some improvements over the last few days.

I suggested this quite some time ago. it would be quite helpful when writers are collaborating on a story or when you are editing something for someone. They could send the file rather than copy and paste the whole story into the email. This would be especially helpful if the story is about subjects that are not to be discussed other than in stories.


This has been a missing feature for a while. You can now add pdf and docx attachments to PM's

Restore the spacing of the competition story badges to three across again. Evidently when Gav reworked the site a few months ago, the field was narrowed so that now the badges only show two across instead of three, leaving a huge black space to the right.




Also, it might be nice to have the number of competitions show on the contestant badge itself. When the competition story badges were created, there was discussion about creating them for the older competitions. I think it was decided that would be too difficult. This would allow members who had competed in competition before the current badge system was established to show the total number of competitions they had entered. It would be like the current Author badge that shows the total number of stories published.




Spacing restored.

Quote by KimmiBeGood
Hi, forgive me if this has been discussed before. It would be nice if the followers of story collaborators were also notified of the new story. Currently, it seems only the followers of the submitting author are notified. Thank you.


The notification of stories being published now gets sent to the authors followers plus any contributing authors followers.

Quote by clum
For the 'Stories View' setting, should Quick Reads be added to the options?



Good thinking Mr C, consider it done.
Code Monkey
Quote by Meagananne1986

Count me in on this idea. It would be even better if, on badges such as this, the total number of submissions would be indicated as well - like the author badge, recommended read badge, etc.


Great idea you two, here have a Poet badge each.

Quote by Trousseau
I use the Dark theme on the desktop website. I don't do a lot of mail, so I can't say when it broke, but the mail inbox is now unreadable if I select the Dark theme. The margins and menu are actually the Light versions, and the message list is grayed over. It looks as expected if I switch to Light theme.

I assume this is a style sheet issue. If the Dark theme works for other people, any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I use Chrome on Windows 10, both up-to-date.


I have made some changes to the Dark theme, hopefully these will make it easier to view your messages list.

Quote by adele

A challenge is good, but it is not the fault of the author that more categories are added and penalizing the author that has worked hard to earn a badge seems a bit unfair.


The Omni badge once given, will not be taken away if we add further categories.

hi
we have some hardware patches to apply to the database server, which will need the main stories site to be offline. should take between 1 - 2 hours.
the forums will still be operational during this time.
thanks

Hey Gav,

Found a few oddities for you:


1. When checking my Timeline, the page stretches a bit, and I have to scroll to the right to get to the hamburger menu again:



And when I click the menu, it's too far to the left:




2. When on my profile, after pressing the 'Stories Published' drop down and going to 'All Stories', some of the RR/EP indicators are overlapping the story text. It appears to only happen when a One Liner isn't present to give that extra space:





3. When I am on my desktop, I am no longer able to hover over someone's avatar, right click, and open their profile in a new tab.
I'm not sure if this was affected with the mobile changes? But it's driving me crazier than I thought it would. The option to 'Open in a new tab' is gone. sad




thanks TS.

1. There is something in your timeline expanding past the boundary of the container. Can you see anything obvious? Does it go away eventually?
2. Fixed in next release.
3. I have added an open in new tab icon, does that help?

Hello,

Just a couple of problems I've run into on the site. I only ever access Lush on my Windows PC, and I've noticed a few oddities since you started changing things.

1. There is no longer an option for me to log in to Lush, I seem to be permanently logged in on my PC.
2. When replying to messages from other members there is no longer the option to add an emoji into the reply. I miss this particular feature as I used to use it all the time.
3. The option to right click on a member's avatar and select open in new tab has gone.

If I notice any more anomolies I'll post them up as well as soon as I notice them.



1. Glad you sorted this one out!
2. There is a smiley icon at the bottom of the message area. Clicking this should reveal the list of smileys
3. You can click or mouse over their avatar now. The links are just for navigation purporses.

thanks.

See only the latest moved message - all the others are about a pages worth of scrolling down. Each new message gets left on its own at the top everything else is 'way. down low. Tried in Safari and Firefox on iMac latest OS and versions - Cache cleared, no difference ?‍♂️. Safari on iPhone does not have the problem ?


Does Chrome suffer from the same issue on a Mac? Anyone else with a Mac have the same issue?

When I mouse over a friend a line appears below their handle but nothing else. This has been a problem since Monday. I have tried three different browsers and same results on all three,


Are you able to bring up the dev tools (F12 on Chrome) and see if you have any errors in the Console tab.
