Signature problems - reply needed

[joanne]

I need your help to get to the bottom of what's causing the sig problems.

Can you reply here lettting me know-

Do you have one of our countdown timers in your signature?

If so, are you able to save your signature?

If you don't, are you able to save your signature?

We're thinking it may be a problem with the signature script that's stopping people saving their sigs. :unsure:

[Redkop]

i have a countdown in my sig and i cannot save my sig

[laughingcow1215]

Me too :(

[Slowhand]

i have a countdown in my sig and i cannot save my sig

Same here, and I can`t preview it either Jo.

[AlecK]

I've got countdowns & I can't save my sig. Ask Paula though she also has countdowns but I think she said she could save her sig but only using safari :confused:

[Breeze]

I've got countdown timers and can't change my signature either :sigh:

[Whitequeen]

Do you want me to go and test Safari on the Mac., Joanne?

[uscwest]

I have a countdown but haven't tried to alter my siggie. Prior to today I had been successful using the admin panel to modify siggies if folks asked for assistance but now I can't even do that. :(

[Wendy]

I have a countdown and cannot save my sig :blink::cry2:

[Whitequeen]

I can add and delete my signature in Safari on the Mac.


So, if you'd all like to give me enough money to change my life, I'll change everyone's signatures for them.:D

[joanne]

Well, seems we've solved the problem. It's the countdown timers :rolleyes:

Thing is, you can't remove them because you can't save your signature :lol:

[Cindernaenae]

That's what I encountered Joanne. I tried to delete my Deadwood timer, and it wouldn't let me.

[Whitequeen]

Well, short of me and Paula going through the lot.:D Anything else we can do?:shrug:

[Redkop]

we could all sign up for the safari :D what time does it leave

[joanne]

Other than the mods/admins changing the sigs, I don't see another solution :shrug: :sigh:

[Whitequeen]

See! You all want to be friends with Mac. owners now don't you?:rolleyes: No! Sorry! It's too late now!!:hmph:

[Redkop]

ok i am using deer park alpha 2 and that lets me edit the signature so its not just mac people then :D

[PaulaK]

Yep, what Queenie said. On Safari I can edit/change my sig no problem, but not on Firefox. :D

[triciacarole]

I did my sig countdown the other night and had no problems, however yesterday and today I have problems using the advanced reply features :)

[Whitequeen]

Aha! Red just found out you can do it in Deer Park.
I've justremoved a countdown and changed a signature

[susieh]

I have countdown timers but I cant see the code for them in my sig. I can only see the bits related to resorts and dates. I tried to add to that but it ignores me (can't preview sig or save it - the enter key is ignored).

Will ask my son to try it on his Apple ibook for me

[dseth]

Same goes for me!

Graeme successfully edited my sig on his ibook using Safari

[SorcererMickey]

It might not only be the UOG signature script.

I use a different script which calls the background from my domain. Could it be any scripting in the siggies that's causing the problem?

I tried changing my sig yesterday on Linux using Firefox and could not change it either.

[tajainaz]

Is Deer Park a browser? Is it available to everyone?

[MystikPiglit]

So - I have to go on Safari to a Deer Park wearing a Mac in order to change my sig????

[SorcererMickey]

It's from Mozilla. It will eventually replace Firefox. It's om Alpha 2 now.

[Whitequeen]

That's it MP...........or pay me and I'll do it.:D

Yep! :yes: :D

We have to be adventurous on the UOG! :lol:

good one :rotfl: :rotfl:

i have a timer, and cannot edit and save my siggy, just gonna try downloading deer park and try that and will post result :D

[MystikPiglit]

That's it MP...........or pay me and I'll do it.:D

It would be worth a few pounds to see you creeping round a Deer Park in a mac :lol:



:whistle: Sorry Joanne, I'll be quiet now.......

It does only seem to be siggies with timers in. I tested it in another account with a blank signature and could save that.
Yet on my account, from same computer, I have a timer in my sig, and I can't save my sig.
Process of elimination leads me to think it is the countdown scripts :shrug:

[ukwdwnut]

i just downloaded deer park edit and saved my siggy, jo :D

but firefox deer park still has probs posting :( so im back on IE

[PaulaK]

Do the old style timers have the same effect or are they all gone now. Maybe someone with one of those could test.

[ukwdwnut]

get someone who hasnt got a timer to do one and test it that way :D

[marivigi]

I have a counter and have tried:

*deleting it
*putting a new one
*deleting and putting a new one

I cant save or preview my signature

[ukwdwnut]

download deerpark alpha 2 mari, edit it with that, then go back to IE :D

[Whitequeen]

I don't have any problem posting with Deer Park.:shrug: I can slap using it too.:D

[uscwest]

Wonder if we need to get Dilbert to look into this?

[Redkop]

I don't have any problem posting with Deer Park.:shrug: I can slap using it too.:D

sometimes the smilies can be out of line, that normaly seems to be in PM though, all present and correct to the right of me now :D

[Melfuzz]

I have the same problems

[marivigi]

download deerpark alpha 2 mari, edit it with that, then go back to IE :D

and that is what???? :unsure:

[kazzaqld]

I have the same problem using Firefox - I've been meaning to try it using IE but it sounds like IE has the same issue? :shrug:

[bawden2]

I put the countdown on my sig. Realised it was wrong but can now not delete it.

[uscwest]

OK, looks like we took care of that little problem. :)

[bawden2]

Many thanks. I have been puzzling over it for days.

[Madeye]

[ukwdwnut]

[ukwdwnut]

[DizneyBlonde]

[ukwdwnut]

dizzy do a google search for deer park alpha 2 and either download it and then install it, then you can edit your siggy :D

[Redkop]

[Wendy]

[Whitequeen]

Yep, she's on Safari in a Mac. hunting Deer.:D

[Shogun]

Trying to change the date in my timer but it wont save or preview.

[Whitequeen]

No it won't. We've been upgraded since you were last here, Shogun and we need to put some things right still, I'm afraid. :)

[uscwest]

download and use deer park alpha 2 to do the editing dave, then go back to use IE for posting :)

[Meezers]

Can't edit or save either....off to the deer park trial

[Eeyore1974]

Hi there, just back online after a long hiatus and tried to delete my countdown timer at the bottom and it won't save.

[tajainaz]

Joanne and Keith led us through a major upgrade a few weeks ago, and there are still a few bugs to be--debugged! The signatures are one of them. They aren't working with AOL or IE.

It has been suggested by those in the know that downloading and using a browser called Deer Park Alpha does work with the signature at this time. Obviously, not something I have done yet--still have my Las Vegas timer in my siggie! :blush:

[JuniorMickey]

If you download Deer Park you'll be able to edit your siggie. Otherwise, be patient until the bug are fixed. The software people are slow to react to the bug report :wink:

OK, it is gone.

[Keith]

ok sig editing should now be fixed for most people (still a couple of reports of problems on some older browsers).

If it doesnt work first time, try ctrl-R, ctrl-F5 or cleaning out your browser cache :)

I'll willingly help if it doesn't work but we're hoping to make it easy enough for members to do it themselves you see... give it a shot and let me know if you get stuck?

[Wendy]

I'll give it a go but I managed to make it disappear without even trying :rolleyes:
