not a bug, you have to refresh after adding tags, because when you hit edit for the second tag it brings up the tags that are currently on the image, ie the ones from before you edited it. so by not refreshing when you add that second tag the list of tags does not include the one you put in the first edit, because it is only pulling the original tag list.

I figured that was why it happened, I was moreso hoping that could be something that would be changed, like the blacklist thing I mentioned (again I don't know if that's the vanilla ui change or if that's re6)

There seems to be a bug with viewing favorites in e926. Specifically with the number of posts that you can see when viewing favorites vs searching posts with the fav:{username} tag. I think this has something to do with the number of pages returned when viewing your favorites.

If we use my favorites as an example:
https://e926.net/favorites?user_id=2105868
vs
https://e926.net/posts?tags=fav%3ADonuts5432

With 75 posts per page both of these currently have 3 pages of safe-rated posts. However, because the first link is basically the same as viewing favorites in e621 but without the non-safe posts, not all favorited safe posts are shown. There are not enough pages to show the rest of them. The second link also has 3 pages but each page is completely filled out and all favorited safe posts are shown. Keep in mind that this was tested without any browser extensions.

e926 automatically appends an invisible rating:s to searches, since the /favorites page is not a search so there's going to be hidden posts instead.

Everything seems in order here, both https://e926.net/posts?tags=fav%3ADonuts5432 and https://e621.net/posts?tags=fav%3ADonuts5432+rating%3As total up to 184 each, while https://e926.net/favorites?user_id=2105868 totals up to 200 due to showing deleted posts while there are some deleted posts going on there's also some other fuckery happening

Not quite sure if that's where I'm supposed to report it, but the "Hexerade 1" mascot and "ecmajor", "evalionfix" and "esix3" mascots don't have the right background value assigned.

For "Hexerade 1" it should be "#003056", for "ecmajor" and "evalionfix" it should be "#063157", and for "esix3" it should be "#1b3256".

I think that's everything, I checked and I think they're all the misassigned ones, hopefully it helps!

Trying to upload my work and getting this error:

Error: ActionController::InvalidAuthenticityToken. Did you properly authorize your request?

Tried to upload a couple of times throughout the day, the error is still there :(

Is there a reason I don't get the pool of of tags I recently added anymore?

The tag suggestions when editing tags? It's been removed as a temporary workaround for a bug that was causing significant site-wide lag.

Maybe its just me but just in case, I though it was some of the rare times that if I access my own profile it shows "An unexpected error occurred." (I have too much favs lol) but it's showing in every profile I try to visit (like Bill Furray and CrocoGator profiles for example).

I am on a time out for visiting profiles or someone else is having the same bug?

I'm also having the same bug when I try to look at my own profile or other's profiles, favorite a post or look at my favorites

Edit: seems fixed now

I had the same problem, but everything works now.

It's pretty common for when adding posts to sets to get an empty error message with no explanation, today it's been so bad that I've been unable to add posts to sets for a few hours, idk if this is bc I use sets so much or what

Hello,

I noticed that my post https://e621.net/posts/5547679 never appeared in the hot (order:rank) page. Have never happened to me before so I wanted to flag it.

the hot page has been wonky for a bit, nothing the mods can really do about that until someone figures out why its been weird.

manitka said:

Ah! I see. Well, I'm glad the issue is already known of. Hopefully it will be fixed soon. Thanks for letting me know!

kadachi-kun said:
...huh.
Odd change, considering how iconic Esix and Hexerade are.

Are you under the impression that the other mascots are gone, never to return?
That is not so. We got a new mascot, so we are showing him off for a bit.
Other mascots will be back.

Well, that's good to hear.
It was just the sudden disabling of all the other mascots that blindsided me.

When the site went down for 30 minutes earlier today, my posts per page defaulted to 25. That's probably because 160 isn't supported anymore, so that's fine (I changed it to 150). But also the tag "text" mysteriously showed up on my blacklist. I don't know what that was about, but I removed it.

Replying to forum thread it showed me an "unknown error" page at least twice (once after unsuccessful reply and then after page refreshes), then couldn't load main forum page and now forum is slightly slower than should be with some of the threads loading very slowly.

kadachi-kun said:
The "swap mascot" button on the front page doesn't work.

I'm having the same issue. had to clean my cookies, cache, downloads, ect so my e621 mascot refreshed and I cannot swap the mascot right now to the one I like because the button isn't working.

Updated

Adding posts to Pools doesn't refresh the page or close the pop-up window when you click Submit. You have to manually refresh the page for it to reflect the addition.
Also (I don't know if this is intentional or not) you can't create a new Pool through the + Pool button on the post.

That ui is only for adding posts to existing pools, to add a post to a new pool either create the pool first or edit the post and use the newpool metatag, ex newpool:Pool_Name_Here

Now that I'm thinking about it I'm not sure this is documented anywhere, I think I only know about it from actually seeing and working with the code

Webm playback seems to be broken for a lot of files on ios safari.
Sure there was always the rare one here or there but there's suddenly seems to be a lot more and ones I'm almost entirely sure used to work don't anymore.

As an example post #2247821

Neither the file nor the playback is "broken".
Your browser just does not support playing webm files.

Due to a background process that is going on right now, some posts won't have the mp4 variants available.
It'll all be sorted soon-ish.

Yeah, I saw that in the error logs.
Seems to have been a minor hiccup when one of the servers was out of rotation.

having the same issue here. all the new videos that have been coming out today are not loading at all.

tyvan said:
Home page won’t let me swap mascots on mobile

I later realized that this is replying to a bug report my bad

It’s intended, they’re showing off the new mascot for a bit, the others are disabled for the time being.

I use safari that runs with google and none of the newer vids are playing, I try to download them and all it shows is the text with it saying the file size is 14 mb

I am having a similar issue, none of the newer videos work when I use my phone, even with perfect connection.

(Edit: scrolled up, saw it was a known issue)

Some time next week?
We are about a quarter of the way though the process.

none of the webm posts are loading at all not sure if it just a bug or just me with chrome

is chrome the only one thats having trouble with webm or is every browser is having the same thing?

Every browser, they are doing work in the background, should be fixed sometime soon.

manitka said:

Every browser on iOS, just so we are clear.
Works fine on windows and android.

Webms on this site fail to load properly on mobile(Android) for me. They just keep loading indefinitely. It only happens on e621, and with any browser I try. Downloading the webm and playing it through my phone's gallery worked fine. This has been happening for about a week now. Works fine in PC.

This is all I know, any help would be appreciated.

Edit: i didn't read the recent posts on here, am stoopid. Realised after i posted

I can't add posts to a private set from the posts index because I instead get a console error Permission denied to access property "currentTarget" traced to PostModeMenu.click at post_mode_menu.js:179:18

That function controls all post modes other than 'View', and the error is with setting the target post ID for the action being performed, which might be rendering the entire feature inoperable. (You guys also might want to use a switch statement rather than a stack of else-ifs, since you're only checking one value.)

By the way, I am on LibreWolf (138.0.4-1), and I found this out through the Developer Tools.

Updated

I also found an error just now when attempting to use the DText formatter buttons: Uncaught Error: Permission denied to access object traced to dtext.js:45:12

Could LibreWolf's privacy features be interfering with the site's JavaScript?

I just tried these in Brave (Version 1.78.102 Chromium: 136.0.7103.113 (Official Build) (64-bit)) and they work there.

Maybe this is a feature at this point, given how long it's been an issue; why does the "next" button still show blacklisted results? Not sure why anyone would want to click next to see "blacklisted", I'd just want to see the next post that fits within my blacklist.

Seems like a pretty easy thing to implement, just treat the blacklist like a minus tag

No, it is not a "pretty easy thing to implement", quite the opposite.
The blacklist is handled client-side. The site decides which post is supposed to be "next" server-side. The two systems do not communicate with each other.
Handling the blacklist server-side like you are suggesting is not viable, for performance reasons.

I believe it could be done client side too, no? Kinda janky fix, but automatically adding "-(blacklisted tag)" to the end of the url would work the same. I just don't like typing out my blacklist each time I search something.
or is this not feasible because of client-server communication? Surely it could be done without adding stress to the server, might require a complete rework of the search and blacklist function though.

If the blacklist is saved client side, adding it to the search output url seems possible to me. I'm not running any mass website databases though.

the search can only handle 40 tags, your blacklist can hold, uhh... infinite, maybe? either way, a lot more than 40 tags. also each blacklist item's not necessarily just a single tag and they might already be negative blacklist items to begin with, so that'd need to be parsed out. also deal with items that are toggled off, and several things I didn't think of probably.

The blacklist can be 150,000 characters total, with the maximum valid tag being 100 characters that's well over 1400 tags minimum in the blacklist

Not to mention that this would literally cause the exact performance issues the clientside blacklist is avoiding

A character count in the blacklist text field would be a handy feature.

topic #46077

I don’t know if others are experiencing this but the ability to switch between the desktop and mobile layout is broken. I’ve checked on my iPad and computer, on brave and libre wolf. On my iPad I’m stuck on the mobile layout, and my pc is stuck on the desktop layout.

I much prefer to use the desktop layout on my IPad, so if there’s a fix for that it would be appreciated.

try the Mobile mode: ON button at the bottom of the page.

When I open Topics created by a specific user, their original post in that topic almost immediately disappears and every reply moves up as if the first one never existed. Every time I reload the page, the original post will reappear for less than a second before vanishing again. It seems to only be happening when that first post (ergo the topic) is created by a particular user and nobody else. I can specify who, if that'll help, but I won't say unless necessary.

So everytime i try to watch a video the screen turns pink i try all the fit options including original size but it did not fix could you fix this bug?
Or is it a known issue
This video proves the issue and if anyone else is experiencing this remind me post #5591333

do you have the user blacklisted and have blacklist users toggled on?

I want to add to the videos on mobile problem that it's not just that mp4 versions aren't available. Old videoes which do have mp4 versions available are also not working on iOS, at least for me (Brave in iPadOS). The player defaults to webm, instead of mp4. I've checked by going to old videos that also don't load, pressing download, and switching the extension to mp4 to confirm that the mp4 variant is actually there and loads just fine when fetched directly.

hey, so i don't know why but when I open this page post #5601963 (without even playing the video) on my phone in chrome, my sound gets quite fucky, there is just a lot of loud static coming from my speakers, does anyone else have this problem or is this just my phone ? I have samsung with android

I just checked because ive had an issue for a bit and i cant view any video posted since may 15 for some reason

Probably related to the background processes currently running. It should hopefully be finished by the end of the week?

Dude, if you don't know then just don't say anything. Or at least think for a second before saying anything.
Not being able to find videos in the search is one hundred thousand percent not related to samples being regenerated.

That said, I have no idea what the issue is here.
Here is a video that was posted earlier today: https://e621.net/posts/5605668
You can find more videos here: type:webm.

the user with the issue didn't say anything about not finding stuff in the search, just that they weren't able to view videos from later than May. which sounds like it'd be the .mp4 sample problem.

I guess it could be interpreted this way.
Although the process is still handling posts from 2024, nowhere near May.
