Yes, and as soon as it's fixed, you're gonna get the negging of a lifetime.

Sorry, there was a problem reacting to this content.

And now gone.  Good work, that was fast. B|

I see its being worked on...but yeah tapa has been borked all day...having to restart like every 15mins or so when it freezes up

There seems to be a delay between when I make a post and when the forum view updates.

I just posted this: 

But as of 4:24 PM Central this is what the football board looks like:

I'm also getting double posts, or rather, my post will show, but the same post is loaded and ready to be posted again, so I have to delete it to clear it out.

Just happened again, I posted this but it's not showing at the top of the forum: 

 

How am I going to get every imaginable tweet/social media post connected to Longhorn fandom if Machinator's shit is borked?

It actually works out well for you; I can see my recent posts but others might not be able to notice.

machinators shit should be unborked

Negative, I'm still getting the phantom double posts that @Sbbruin mentioned above.

Have you thought about plugging Machinator into the server?

I plugged myself into your mom last night.

Lazy loading Twitter posts seems to have helped my experience at least so fuck all y'all.

double post borkage is better than not showing up in the recent borkage?

I have reverted basically everything back except lazy loading and the new features for adding images and shit. We are back on elasticsearch for search instead of mysql (which was causing some borks I think)

I'm still seeing it on this board (your most recent post isn't showing up in forum view).

I'm also still seeing the "[[Template tapatalk/front/tapatalk/tapatalk_smartbanner is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]" banner.

That was a serious Russian bork bot invasion.  And the bastards did it during the home run derby.

Is there any chance that the comments can come back? Too much liability? Too many clicks? 

Tor only gave you a dot. Still got a dot, but that's it. 

Edit: don't know what you did to fix the All Activity or subscription threads, but it's cool now.

Please fix tapa. It's all I use. I'm sitting in front of a large computer screen at a desktop like my grandmother.

I'm disabling tapa for now. The new version is obviously a piece of shit. 

It's been shit software for 6 years now.

You broke it again.

Tapa still off?

Is for me.  The borkage is cresting.

agreed - now that you can upload from mobile as a subscriber idk why the fuck you would use tapatalk - I've also enabled RSS feeds so there's legit 0 reason to use it.

I like Tapa because I have an iPhone 7 and Surly/Safari is a PITA because it's small and requires lots of scrolling the screen.

I'm going to reintroduce Tapa - but it may be on a totally different webhost/server so it doesn't fuck with the main board like it did yesterday.

That's not what was done in the first place? What's the limiting factor on how many boxes/VM's the site runs on? Just computing resources or is the site constrained by the colo facilities it's hosted in? It's a no-brainer to have different hosts serving different interfaces to content so you can modify/adjust configurations without borking everything.

The way that Invision Community works is it wants all the web hosts to be the same config (previous borkage when CSS wasn't the same on the webhosts - solved going to our new setup w/ shared storage) the new borkage is because I updated the version of tapatalk and it doesn't like the current version of IPB. Just kinda dumb how the 2 software companies don't play nice together.

We've got plenty of capacity to just have it off on its own, but the problem is more in the way the software is architected than the infrastructure unfortunately.

Well that sucks ass. Did they stop improving forum software circa 2005 or something? That's such a shitty antipattern for reliability and durability.
