<span style="color:#257a5a; font-size:120%;">Thanks for keeping an eye out for these bugs, folks. I am making many incremental changes and you are seeing, and working, with those. Please keep in mind no testing has been done in Internet Explorer yet, but if you find errors there feel free to note them. Also keep in mind that because we're moving to fixed width from a liquid layout, a number of pages, not the skin, will look, well, horrible.</span>

* How do I know if I'm watching a particular page? [[User:Julia|Julia]]
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">thanks Julia: I think I have those buttons showing up on the wrong screens.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
* '''The main page''' [[Wiki]] the multi-column format isn't working correctly in both Safari and Firefox. -- [[Tak]] 11:49, 3 March 2008 (PST)
 
** The front page articles do match up- laterally. [[:Image:frontpagebreak.png]]
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">There will be a number of pages that will need one-off page redesign for deployment.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* <s>[http://compostus.aboutus.org/Windells.com Images don't float properly.] [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 10:00, 7 March 2008 (PST)
 
** This is NOT related to Vinh's comment below.  Take a look.  The images are not too wide, and yet they all crash.  I re-formatted for the narrower page and they're still all messed up. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 22:21, 10 March 2008 (PDT)</s>
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">Ted, the problem wasn't in fact a floating errors, the problem was that the logo at [[Windells.com]] is too wide for the smaller fixed width of this. That image laid next to the domainpage box breaks correctly.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* <s>[[:Image:DiffCssBug.png]] -- [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 09:50, 8 March 2008 (PST)</s>
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">There were conflicting css selectors running rampant. fixed. however, may have to rethink diff views in general.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* '''The domain box isn't consistent''' in its placement; sometimes blocks other content on the page. [[User:Kasey|Kasey]] 15:47, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
** Fixed width issue: [[:Image:FixedWidthIssue.png]]
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">this is something we'll have to deal with during testing. For deployment I will switch the template to a horizontal, across-the-top domain box. In later releases, the domain functionality will move off the wiki.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* <s>I '''lose the formatting on user pages;''' and the user box (w/ my name) partially covers the find! bar when I try to use my watchlist or view my contributions. [[User:Kasey|Kasey]] 15:42, 10 March 2008 (PDT)</s>
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">This should be fixed.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* <s>'''The "AddThis" bookmark''' window draws way to the left of where it should when you mouse over it. -- {{TakTalk}} 15:06, 10 March 2008 (PDT)</s>
 
 
 
* AAAAAAAAAAAAA! (for translation, see screenshot)
 
**[[:Image:CompostUsDailyBuzzImageLinksBugScreenshot.png]]
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">yeah, certain templates, especially big long table-based navigation bars, will have to be redesigned directly before or after deployment.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* <s>'''Centering in IE7:''' appears to work in IE7 but with an extra scroll bar at the bottom. See [[:Image:CompostUsIE7CenteringBug.jpg]] --[[User:Saad_Saeed|Sa'ad]] <sup>[[User talk:Saad_Saeed|talk]]|[[Special:Emailuser/Saad_Saeed|email]]|[[WebIRCHelp|chat]]</sup> 01:54, 11 March 2008 (PDT)</s>
 
** <span style="color:#257a5a;">Sa'ad, I think that was old code. Should be gone now but I haven't done any testing in Internet Explorer yet.</span> --[[Vinh Nguyen]]
 
 
 
* [http://compostus.aboutus.org/PortlandTech/Upcoming_Calendar Calendar messed up]
 
* [http://compostus.aboutus.org/3BWebCreations.com  Thumbnail gallery  issue and Badges issue - has extra //PortlandTech]
 
* [[Image:FormattingHintsError.png|right|200px]] In edit mode, the "formatting hints" option is being placed over the "article history" items. -- {{TakTalk}}
 
 
 
==Functionality--Todo==
 
===Images/upload===
 
* Image uploads don't work. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 10:21, 8 March 2008 (PST)
 
* Images aren't displayed on the image detail page.
 
** They are now, just not as well as they should (and will) be. -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
** And now, we used the scaled image when they exist. -- Ward
 
 
 
===Server name/email===
 
* Email alert links for my watchlist pages contain an error like this: aboutus.org:8888/ [[User:Julia|Julia]] 15:18, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
** I confirm this as well. Thought it was happening to me only. Reported in aboutus bugs but i hear it is related to compost. --[[User:Saad_Saeed|Sa'ad]] <sup>[[User talk:Saad_Saeed|talk]]|[[Special:Emailuser/Saad_Saeed|email]]|[[WebIRCHelp|chat]]</sup> 03:28, 11 March 2008 (PDT)
 
 
 
===CAPTCHA===
 
* Needs to work
 
It works - [[User:Ali Anwar|Ali Anwar]] 00:27, 12 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* It didn't work for me. ~~ [[MarkDilley]] 10:53, 12 March 2008 (PDT)
 
 
 
===Pagecreation bot===
 
# The page creation bot doesn't seem to run in compostus. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 11:10, 7 March 2008 (PST)
 
 
 
===Casespace/URL trouble===
 
* <s>How do I move a page to [[FixName]]?</s> [[User:Julia|Julia]] 12:43, 11 March 2008 (PDT)
 
** The "move" link is now active and visible along with "article", "history" and "edit" yes? [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 15:51, 12 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* Categories show the underscore (ie "Internet_Marketing") in the names instead of a space. See [[InternetServicesGuide.com]] for an example.
 
 
 
===Template tag stuff===
 
* "Edit" options in [[Template:DivBox|Div Boxes]] like on [[SpotlightArticles]] don't work any more. These boxes are used all over the place (including the front page). Instead of being a link, they show: <nowiki>[//index.php?title=/&action=edit edit]</nowiki>
 
**<s>looking at the template, my guess is something with the <nowiki>{{FULLPAGENAME}}</nowiki> call, but that's really just a 5-second hypothesis. -- {{TakTalk}} 20:51, 9 March 2008 (PDT)</s>
 
* Templates making strange links should now work. -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
 
 
===Adult Content===
 
* Right now, a user can view adult pages if (and only if) the user is logged in.  However, flagging functionality appears to work.  We plan on re-implementing all previous functionality, with some improvements, soon.  -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
 
 
===Move page===
 
* Move page doesn't seem to work. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 07:09, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* When I'm in edit mode, there is no link to move page. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 08:36, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
 
 
===Categories?===
 
* Categories are functional but a bit spartan at this point.  We have plans to do cool things with them in the near future.  Our new platform will give us a great deal of flexibility as far as ordering and presenting categories. -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
* All functionality should now work. -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
 
 
===Other/uncategorized===
 
* I cannot find a link from a personal page to it's talk page. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 10:11, 4 March 2008 (PST)
 
*** Mine also shows up like that on FF, and i'm unable to view the attached image when i click on it. (its an empty page). --[[User:Saad_Saeed|Sa'ad]] <sup>[[User talk:Saad_Saeed|talk]]|[[Special:Emailuser/Saad_Saeed|email]]|[[WebIRCHelp|chat]]</sup> 23:00, 9 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* <s>Permanent link [http://compostus.aboutus.org/index.php?title=Windells.com&oldid=14994566 doesn't work]. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 10:00, 7 March 2008 (PST)</s>
 
** is this still a problem? -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
*** Yes.  When you click that link, how does it look to you?  Do you see all the wikitext in the domain box?  Maybe it's just me.  I dunno. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 13:41, 11 March 2008 (PDT)
 
**** [http://www.aboutus.org/index.php?title=Windells.com&oldid=14994566] shows the exact same problem.  It's not compost-related.  If it's a frequent problem we might allocate time to determine what's wrong (though Mediawiki's parser is a nightmare to debug). -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
* When I click on a section edit, the page is scrolled to the wrong place, and I have to scroll back up to find the edit box. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 22:19, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
** Same happens when clicking compare selected. The diff revision is at the top while page focus remains below. This should be according to the settings people have set in their preferences. I for example prefer my diffs and editboxes to appear at the top. I know this is not the default preference. --[[User:Saad_Saeed|Sa'ad]] <sup>[[User talk:Saad_Saeed|talk]]|[[Special:Emailuser/Saad_Saeed|email]]|[[WebIRCHelp|chat]]</sup> 04:29, 11 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* Pages, like this one aren't showing the "Watch" or "Lock" options (or "Unwatch" and "Unlock") on normal pageview. They show up correctly in Edit mode. -- {{TakTalk}} 12:18, 12 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* nowiki tags don't work -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
* When I'm looking at a diff, and I click "edit" I expect to be editing the version on the right, but I'm actually editing the one on the left.  [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small> 15:54, 12 March 2008 (PDT)
 
 
 
===For later?===
 
* Double-clicking to the edit the page (part of a user preference setting) is broken. I'm probably the only person in the world who uses this, but I do use it like extensively. It's also might be related to something else, since double click to edit relies on Javascript to work correctly. -- {{TakTalk}} 20:54, 9 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* The log-in screen doesn't allow a cookie to be set to "always keep me logged in" like in the regular wiki. This is important to me since I always use the same machines and am not used to having to repeatedly log in (so I find I make a bunch of edits anonymously that have to be patrolled). The converse is also true, for people using shared computers, the ability to set this for only a session is important. -- {{TakTalk}} 11:47, 10 March 2008 (PDT)
 
* * In the "Getting Around box, the "Email this User" and "Block this User" options are always visible.  They give the option to email or block myself which is useless. Maybe "Block this user" is visible only to the sysop. But the "email this user" one needs to be removed for other users. [[Asad Butt|Asad]]  |  [[User_talk:Asad_Mahmood_Butt|<small>*~talk~*</small>]] 01:04, 11 March 2008 (PDT)
 
 
 
==MediaWiki Messaging==
 
''for now, AboutUs v2.0, we are going to not implement mediawiki system messages in the skin, eg. site navigation. This will be addressed in AboutUs v.2.0.1''  -- Fair enough, but can we at least have site navigation links that match the ones in the pre-compost skin?
 
* '''MW system msgs''' aren't available for "ad sidebar", ...
 
** working on a solution for that. -[[User:Stephen Judkins|Stephen Judkins]]
 
** The links in the sidebar don't appear to be wiki editable anymore.  This is hard on Community. [[User:TedErnst|TedErnst]] <small>([[User talk:TedErnst|talk]])</small>
