Announcement OHM - Deployments, and fixes

[Lucy]

Just a minor problem to add to your list. Theme selector for white and grey work fine. For dark and light, some text is lost in both left and right columns.

I focussed my energies on the revamp for the default skin, which unfortunately left the other skin choices behind somewhat. It is on the list of things to resolve.

Also having the same problem, unable to log into my account to upload addons.

This should be resolved now.

It said the above but i have a forum acces and it does not link:
Greetings, traveller! Doesn't look like we've seen you round these parts before.

We don't hold account details over here, so first things first, you'll need to register an account on Orbiter Forum, if you haven't already.

If you've already created an Orbiter Forum account, please input the numerical ID of that account to form the link.

Orbiter Forum ID number

This is the expected behaviour when it doesn't find an account for you, but others have noted it doesn't always create the registration. I'm digging into why.

Xyon, where do I find the numerical id of my account.

Thanks, G.

You can find it by clicking your own name on a post you've made, which takes you to your profile screen. The UID you're looking for is in the address bar. For instance, mine is https://www.orbiter-forum.com/member.php?u=3040 << 3040

Try now, I've amended your OF ID.

 

[Notebook]

That's done it!
Thanks Xyon.

Slight query.
What's the difference between unpublish and remove?
Thanks.

Unpublish controls the visibility of your addon, allowing you to take it down for modification into a draft mode that only you and staff can see. Removing your addon takes the addon down from OHM permanently.

I want to delete my obsolete add-ons (Apollo Missions (beta 0.1), Apollo DG Scenarios) but they are undeletable. Is this because they are awating staff approval?

If it is, that behaviour is not by design and should be considered a bug. You should always be able to remove your own content.

A bug in a recent OHM update to provide staff management facilities temporarily broke access to some addons, and I have had to revert the database to a previous copy, because the user tables were out of alignment on it. I think I've cleaned up all the fallout from that, but let me know if you encounter API errors.

Can't login, and it seems the addons from this year are gone...

BTW: the "Remember this login" option is not keeping me logged in...

So, the bug I wrote essentially ran unfiltered clauses on the user table that killed the whole lot and overwrote everyone's data. I still have all the addon information, and was able to piece back together the user records we had before that happened to reconstruct the database - the addons from this year are now back.


Unfortunately the user account data is all from before I fixed everyone who had invalid IDs, so, that's going to need fixing again, sorry!

I can't login again.

 

[DaveS]

I can't login again.

Same here.

 

[llarian]

And me, too.

 

[Ripley]

Needless to say, I can't login either.

 

[asbjos]

Me neither.

 

[Kyle_E]

Me neither
(BTW thanks a billion for all the work you're going doing.)
