DFPercush Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Frequency: Once Severity: minor Can recreate? Not so far. Easy to work around: yes Clicking on the emoticons button in the chat window, makes the list appear, but instead of the various icons to choose from, there is only a message saying "no permission" in place of the first item, and the background of the list is transparent. Not 100% certain, but I think it was happening from the first time I tried to expand the list during that session. I had previously manually typed : bunny : which showed up in the chat log properly. This also came after other people had posted the : bunny : icon (we were breaking out in dance ^^) After that, when I clicked on the emoticons button, that's when I got that message. Refreshing the page fixed it. Refreshing, typing : bunny : and then opening the list did not recreate the problem. I have not managed to reproduce the glitch since then. This is the button element in the toolbar: <span unselectable="on" real_type="button" mode="normal" editor_id="message" cmd="emoticons_custom_menu" id="emoticons_custom_menu" class="ipbmenu rte_control rte_button rte_normal" title="Emoticons"><img unselectable="on" src="https://board.freedomainradio.com/public/style_images/overlayblue/rte_icons/emoticons.png" alt="Emoticons"></span> ...and this is the list element which shows the permissions error: <div style="position: absolute; z-index: 9999; top: 747px; left: 304px;" id="emoticons_custom_menu_menucontent">nopermission</div> 1
JamesP Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 There is a bug in the chat. If you browse the forums in the same browser session, then the cookies get screwed up and you start getting "no permission" messages. This is the same bug which causes you to not see new people enter the chat. Workaround is to use another browser or an incognito session for the chat, or to not browse the boards while using the chat.
