Cannot load Image Desc page
Page: Image:Charlatan's Male.jpg Problem: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 12582912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8192 bytes) in /usr/home/guildwiki/public_html/includes/Image.php on line 1150. Need to manually delete the image. Submitted by: PanSola 11:15, 13 April 2006 (CDT)

(Not so) Special pages
Page: Special:Specialpages

Problem: The Special pages page seems to be missing all the normal special pages. I see the Admin special pages, but none of the normal ones.

Comments: Someone else mentioned this somewhere, but I wanted to put in an official report.

Notes:


 * I get this problem too - I cannot see ANY of the Special pages (not an admin). This just seems to be since we moved to the new server... Kidburla 22:52, 13 February 2006 (CST)
 * it was me and I can't remember where. still all blankety -_- 00:06, 20 February 2006 (CST)
 * They're back 04:44, 23 February 2006 (CST)
 * Still having a problem with them. Seems I can get them to show up by refreshing the page a few times.  --Rainith 04:50, 23 February 2006 (CST)
 * I get the same problem. For me it seems to depend on which page I am on when I click the link. Doesnt seem to make sense. --Xeeron 20:24, 23 February 2006 (CST)
 * For me the Special pages page is ALWAYS blank, ever since the problem started. -PanSola 11:21, 1 March 2006 (CST)

In the meantime I figured out what some of them are called, and put them under Specialpages. -PanSola 17:28, 2 March 2006 (CST)


 * This seems to work for me now. It's been working every time since I upgraded to 1.6.1. Can anyone clear their cache, test it, and confirm? Gravewit 08:54, 9 April 2006 (CDT)


 * I'm still having issues with it. Even after clearing my cache.  In fact I can clear my cache and have it change, irregardless of what it was before.  i.e. If I have all the special pages, I clear cache and refresh and they're gone.  If I repeat that, they come back.  --Rainith 19:58, 9 April 2006 (CDT)
 * This is still an issue for me. Fortuneately, I had added most of the ones I needed to my user page; but that doesn't help everyone else. --Barek 20:26, 9 April 2006 (CDT)

Mis-floating Categories
Page: Previewing some pages.

Problem: Sometimes in preview, the bar showing the categories will float on top of the edit box for the article. Adjacent is an example.

Comments: This is reminicent of the old problem we had with the About Disclaimr bar. I am sorry, it does not appear consistently so I cannot pin one article where it always happens.

 * Is this still happening occasionally? Gravewit 08:56, 9 April 2006 (CDT)

Missing email reply
Problem: Created a new user account, entered an email address and followed link to confirm email address. Clicked on button which appeared and message claimed a confirmatory email had been sent. None actually received.

Problem Continues: Same as above. Checked my profile, my email address is correct there. Is there a problem with the mail-bot?

Comments: Anyone else have this happen recently (since the server move)? Gravewit 02:40, 23 February 2006 (CST)


 * I changed my mail address a while ago but no confirm ever came through, that could be because I don't have access to skuld@@@simsational,,,co,,uk, my old address, =( 18:36, 20 March 2006 (CST)

Comments: Yes, the page will not send emails to any of my email accounts upon request. (By changing or activation.) --Nilles 01:52, 2 April 2006 (CST)
 * Has this been fixed or looked upon? I hate to "bump" this, but it actually seems like an issue. --Nilles 06:09, 18 April 2006 (CDT)
 * It has still not been fixed as far as I can see. No confirmation e-mail for me yet... --Fenris 19:46, 21 April 2006 (CDT)
