Is this error related to Wechall or is it a problem at TheBlackSheep?

It was a wechall related error.
It should have been fixed this morning, some hours ago.

Please try to solve another TBS challenge, to check auto-update again

Oh, and thanks a lot your for report!
Auto-Update was really broken since saturday

If i did not mention a bug lately, it has been silently fixed already.


Currently there should be only one single minor and known bug left:
wrong highligtrank on shared rankings for some pages.


Again: Thanks go out to all the bug-reporters a lot! I cannot test the whole site by myself, nor is it possible to write unit-tests for everything. All known bugs here should have been fixed. If not => please double-check and report again.

Shadum mentioned it, and i ve just tried it.
TDHack won't autoupdate and when i try a manual update, this appears:

--Updating your stats for TDHack.
60 - SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK.
Details: error:14090086
:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed
is not a valid response from TDHack.TDHack is currently down.--

TDHack is fine , i have just done a chall to see if would auto-update here.
Anyway, thank you for you hard work.

Anyway, thank you for you hard work.

Thank you for report.
I switched it from https to http.

Else i could disable certain checks in CURL, or add a custom cert file maybe.
But /me is lazy ;)

I am very sorry. The remoteupdate was still broken.
It should have been fixed now.

Thank you a lot for re-reporting this important error, and excuse my ignorance! ;)

The visited attribute of the a tag is a bit confusing, it looks like the link is new, in the forum section I believed that these bold topics had new responses but it was the visited attribute.

Tommorow i will add the old arrows again, or maybe the lightbulb to indicate new posts.
The bold sheme is not too bad, but for usernames it is annoying, because ajax won`t mark it visited.


btw:
I uploaded latest version and fixed some bugs that occured in the logs.
Also i rewrote the BBDecoder from scratch, it seems more solid than my 1st attemp.
I also zipped the whole stuff, so you can look at the source again, in case you are curious

Happy Challenging!

Fixed a few bugs again:

- If you login your current website language should be now set to your primary language

- Creating posts on the forum has better layout and preview navigation. Also site-icons are back.

- Fixed at least 1 database error in ranking_lang

I will write a changelog any soon, but since there is no more svn i have to do it by hand.

About the bold anchors and new forum threads: If a link is bold or not is controlled by your browser and it`s history.
When you are logged in, forum threads also have bell icon beside the title.


If you got suggestions, questions, or find more bugs, please report

Happy Challenging!

PS: If you get laggy response from the server when visiting the site, try to request a 2nd page, this should kickstart your connection somehow.
I am thinking about upgrading the server a bit

BAAL reported that "Forgot Password" is broken. This has been fixed.

Thanks for alerting me

Today i fixed some more important stuff:

- Mr_KaLiMaN reported a bug in "No Escape" challenge that could messup the database
- Mr_KaLiMaN reported a bug in "Addslashes" challenge.
- Mr_KaLiMaN reported that you can not sort your LinkedSites. (Added)

thank you for your feedback

Also:
- The EMail headers were broken and some emails might not have arrived.
- The bbcode [php] tag is back.
- When you edit your post and mark it unread for all, it will get bumped in date as well.

Of course, if you got more bugs or suggestions, or sites that are not liste, any feedback is very welcome.

Happy Challenging!
