The reason the image thumbnails aren't displaying the alt-text is because the code considers them text links. The images have article id= "post" in the code when it should be div class= "post-thumbnail". Will this be fixed soon? Was this actually an intentional change?

I really hope that it's gonna be fixed soon.

Hi, I just made an account to ask if this was a bug or intended feature?

Posts don't show hovertips; I'ved tried clean firefox and clean chromium.
Desktop only, don't have a phone.

Weirdly, user avatars, like those seen in this forum, show hovertext and artist info.

If the unusual decision has been made to disable them on default for lurkers, is there a way I can re-enable them while not logged in?
And if it's a planned feature, could I ask why it's been implemented?
It's incredibly handy to find artist information at a glance.
Right now, I'm far less likely to use the site, as is.

Thank you!

Have noticed the same thing, was wondering if others had this as well or if it was just on my end. No hovertips as of the last couple days or so! Halp devs!

Hovering over an image thumbnail no longer displays the alt-text containg the tags, even if you're logged in. It was still displaying the alt-text when you hovered over it yesterday. Is this a bug or has it been changed? The images have article id=post instead of div class="post-thumbnail" in the code.

Ahh yeah, glad others have all noticed this as well. Hopefully we can get an answer as to what happened and hopefully if it can be reverted, that was a very handy feature.

temp solution: add this CSS customization:

article img {
  pointer-events: unset;
}

Can I make a kinda bulk request here?

“”

Do you see the issue there?

‘’

There?
Yeah, the apple version of the quotation mark characters (U+0091 -> U+0094) aren’t compatible with several syntaxes and I have to copy-paste characters U+0022 and U+0027 from elsewhere to make my syntax actually work. Can there be a feature to auto-replace U+0091 and U+0092 with U+0027 and replace U+0093 and U+0094 with U+0022?

is there really no way to type the neutral " on Apple devices? with the virtual keyboard on iOS I'd assume you could just hold down the quotation mark key to bring up subkeys, like how typing diacritics and stuff works, for a physical keyboard I'm not sure. although, I'd have to imagine that there's a way to turn that feature off and just type the normal neutural quote rather than automatically replacing them with the opening and closing quotes.

Unfortunately, with a physical keyboard, it is impossible to type neutral quotes without copy-pasting it, but with a digital keyboard you CAN make neutral quotes by holding down on the symbol. I guess you could set up an auto-replacement setting in your iOS settings but those are incredibly unreliable and don’t work like quotes should. I would just like an auto-replace in e6.

Huh, aren't neutral quotes the default on ios (virtual keyboard in my instance)?

“and these are the alternate forms?”

Edit: Oh I know your problem
Go to settings -> keyboards -> turn off smart punctuation

Not sure if this is an intermittent issue or a regular one, but the site is loading things incredibly slowly. I can play 3 1080p videos on youtube simultaneously but it's taking me 10 seconds to get 2 seconds of video on here.

I also don't know if I should even be complaining about this here but I wasn't sure where else to post it.

I'm running into an upload error:
"Error: Unknown error! Undefined"

I have tags added, source link, a link to the parent post, and a valid image format (jpg) but I can't get it to upload. I've closed out FF and cleared my cache but I get the same error. I am not out of daily uploads (57 remaining) and had just uploaded the parent post a few minutes prior. I'm not sure what the issue is.

No idea if it's related, but I'm also running into an upload error I've never seen before:

error: Vips::Error - Vips::Error

error: Vips::Error - Vips::Error

Vips is the image processing library, so if that's where the error is thrown from it's more than likely the file you're trying to upload itself is malformed in some way. Vips would usually give a more descriptive error like "Vips::Error: VipsJpeg: Invalid SOS parameters for sequential JPEG" but that might not get passed onto the end user.

Browsers generally show malformed images just fine, but e621 is evidently a little stricter than that. If you have a link to the image I can check it out.

New to forum posting, apologies if I’m doing this incorrectly.

Attempting to sort comments using the comments sector of the site consistently times out, making it impossible to sort comments or search comments (outside of the created order, which is default)

“The database timed out running your query.

Order: post works, but otherwise yeah.

keeping track of issue where hovering over an image thumbnail no longer displays the alt-text containing the tags

Thank you very much for moving this forward. I hope this will be corrected sooner, rather than later.
On that note...

This does not work.

I have tried both:
URLs beginning with https://e621.net/, and URLs on the domain https://e621.net/.
Code is exactly as described.
But thank you for trying to help end-users work around site degradation.

try using the CSS box in settings under advanced.

videos dont seem to load properly anymore, on chrome they load but the seek feature is entirely disabled, you can only pause and unpause, on firefox the video generally just wont load, either getting stuck loading or giving an error message like "no video with supported format and MIME type found" (which is a lie, as spam reloading the page enough will eventually get it to load), this started a few days ago, never had issues before

Despite the length of the timeout timer when searching for comments on the site being increased (or, might’ve been, I don’t know!), searching for comments in any way shape or form is impossible. Outside of the default load of recently posted comments, of course.

Otherwise, any comment searching is completely impossible. Maybe due to how many comments there are? Why is there a timeout to begin with?

There's a timeout on everything so things don't sit there hogging connections to the database
The limit for members is 3 seconds, for Privileged is 6 seconds, and for former staff and higher is 9 seconds

I am looking for the feedback and site suggestion cause tags are a complete mess right now.

right now, tags are NOT applied to certain things and a blacklist is catching them as if they were blacklisted, when none of the visible tags are the blacklisted

the tags FORCE CORRECT anything and everything you put. It's not a suggestion if you can't place an appropriate tag, THAT is a bug in my book.

Any specific examples?

I mean, even if complaints about the function of the tagging system aren't going to get "fixed", the blacklist not working as expected would likely be something that's actually solvable if we had specific examples.
