Ahhh.. If you click on Forums at the top it will take you to forums.wincustomize.com, however if you click on any of the topics on the drop down at the top they go to forums.wincustomizetest.com. Oversight?

The Upload Guidelines and Help links at the bottom of the page give a 404 error too.

EDIT:  The above only occurs when you're in the forums.

Why would anyone have to purposely set up special tabbed browsing in order to navigate a website?

I look at WC and WC forums as separate websites and open each in their separate tabs, just seems to make it a little easier.

I am sorry Snowman, and I know you are a respected Moderator, but that again is plain idiotic.  Why would anyone have to purposely set up special tabbed browsing in order to navigate a website?

What's special about tabbed browsing?

OK, new bug (I think).  If I try to get into My Settings, I get:

Not a new bug. We've known about it for several days. Personal pages (My Site) will, from what I've been told, be recieving attention next week.

Nothing wrong with tabbed browsing, unless you don't use a browser with tabs or prefer not too.  All I am saying is a person should not have to do anything special to browse a web site, period.  I do use tabs, but I use them for separate web sites, not for pages within those web sites.  Thanks for the info on the My Settings issue.

EDIT:  Anyway, the issue of the links not working has been resolved.  Was not the site, but Firefox itself.

Here's what he did......

EDIT:  Figured out the problem!  In Firefox you have to go in and clear absolutely everything out of your browsing history, make sure you set the top drop down box to "Everything" and check all the boxes.  Restart Firefox and all should be well.  You will have to enter your login information again though at every site you were logged into.  Yeah!  Fixed!

I really miss the ability to rightclick on the Download button and choose "Save Target As" on the skins, instead of just clicking on it and installing immediately.  Or am I missing something?

Reply #117 Top

Hey Dave; what browser, latest FF here, right click, save link as works fine. When click download if you are not getting option to save you may have set your browser to auto open and install that type of file. I never set browser to auto open files and always get dialog asking what to do with file.

Reply #118 Top

Just fired up IE7, no save options at all on right click, but for me, since I have IE7 set to ask what to do I have open or save options.

Where is the WC Member Listing?   >_>

I just hope I'm not losing time on my paid subscription since I can't log in now. :\

That'll teach me to post something and not keep an eye on it :rofl:

what browser

IE8, XPHome.  I'm not getting the option, at least in the WB Gallery.

Ya I'm getting the "Open or Save" prompt after a leftclick on the Winstep themes.  At some point I must have unchecked the "Always Ask" box on the WB's, I've been using the rightclick "Save target as" for ages.  Argh, as I remember getting that "open or save" option back after you've unchecked the box is a pain in the neck.  Wonder what else I've done that with.

Not sure if this will work or not, but in Firefox open up your Options and click Applications, then select wbload document (may be more than one) in the list and set it to Always Ask.  To be sure restart Firefox and then see what happens. :P

EDIT: As far as IE8, I have no idea.

Thanks LightStar, I was just coming back to say I found it.  I'm on IE8, you get it back by going into Windows Explorer (as opposed to Internet Explorer) tools/folder options/file types/"advanced button" for the wba file type.  Pffft, piece of cake.  I wasted more time poking around the Microsoft Knowledge base search and not finding it.  :)    I think the last time I did it I must've done it "the hard way" somehow or other, pretty sure the registry was involved.

Any Progress on having to refresh 4-5-6 times and more to see something one just posted?
