AFTO-781

Hey folks, over the next few weeks, I'll be migrating to a newer server. There may be some random down time and/or a few lost posts when I "flip the switch". I'll alert everybody with a sticky post and it'll be in the middle of the night sometime in the next few weeks.

This board has a spam prevention control which groups all newly registered users into the group "User on Probation." This status lasts for for 48 hours after you confirm your account and while you are a member of this group, all posts must be approved by a moderator and you cannot start any new topics. This is primarily a spam prevention effort, but it also serves to let the noobs hang out and look through the forums for a while before asking a potentially dumb or previously answered question. If you are newly registered and would like to bypass this waiting period, send me a PM and I will unlock it. Do not reply to this thread, as that won't necessarily alert me.

For several days, whenever I open the Baseops app on my iPhone, it shows no content under "unread." I thought signing out and back in (on the app) might fix things but now I cannot log back into the app. Whenever I try to login, I get a pop up with 50+ pages of error code. I have no issue logging in via safari on the iPhone or on my computer. Anyone else having this issue?

This should be resolved now. Something caused a few tables to shit the bed. I had to do some uber-nerd level MySQL stuff to fix things.

I am continually being redirected away from this site to an amazon “ad” is this just me?

It used to be that when I read a post and would see that someone had "Liked" it, I could click on the Like emblem and the person's that gave the rating would show up. Now, it does not do that (hasn't for sometime, actually). Glitch? Or planned change?

Looks like the site was upgraded this evening. Didn't see the +/- for reputation on posts. Am I correct here or just stupidity on my part?

In the SARC thread. I can see that there are a bunch of new posts (says 22 new). When I click on the thread, I can't read any posts after nsplayer's 9 hours ago.

All, Google Authenticator - two factor authentication is now available for BODN. To enable it, click your name in the top right corner, click "Account Settings" and then do this:

This has been a problem for a while; just getting around to squaking code-2. I am only able to open ~1/4 of posted links at most. They neither open in the app, or push over to another browser. So if I'm really curious about a link, the fix has been to open up BODN in Chrome. Any fix within the app for this? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

Anyone know how to download a forum / chat for offline reading? Got a long flight coming up and I'm trying to download a multiple page forum to catch up on some base ops reading. Thanks for any help.

Whenever I try to quote someone, the page quotes that person and also pulls a random quote from the user pcola from somewhere else in the forums and adds it to the quote.

If you purchased the PRO! Android app, please PM me with the google account you used. That software will no longer be available/updated on the play store starting today.

Hey folks. Gonna be a little while before the next update to the Apple version of the app, but it's going to be a significant update when it finally goes through. Just an info note.

Routinely having my browser (Firefox 45.0.1) lock up with a particular "waiting for..." message when accessing BODN (and nowhere else). I assume it's an ad, and my caveman-level of ability to read what shows up when I navigate directly leads me to believe it's eBay.... Anyway, the specific site is: dco-cdn.w55c.net

I use the standard media tags--(media)(/media) but with brackets instead of parentheses--but the post still only shows the URL and doesn't embed the video into the post. What gives?!?

Like the topic name says, I read the emails but they still show up as bold/unread and I get the red "2" next to the drop down messages header. iPad mini2 iOS 9.2 App version: couldn't find version info in app, but I'm not showing an iTunes update, so I assume I have the most current one. Cap-10

Folks, In a few weeks, I will be performing a major upgrade. I will make a few more announcements here once I know when the expected down time and duration will be.

When I go into a thread that has multiple pages, if I click on the double right arrow (the one that takes me to the last posts), it goes to a page that has no posts, and the page is somewhat unresponsive. It does this on multiple threads I've tried.

With the new board I have not had a problem going to the last page when I click on a thread. At first, when the new board appeared, if I was on page 72 then clicked on 71 it would take a few extra seconds to load. Today, and last couple times I have been on, it is just endlessly loading. No matter what thread I have clicked, the last page will load almost instantly. However, on any thread, if I click on the page before with the last page already loaded, the top banner and stuff will load but the threads never load... just a loading symbol. I have to check my mobile still, but this is happening on Win 8 in IE11 and chrome fully updated. Anyone else have this issue or…

so, I used to not have a problem logging into the boards from work, but then we migrated to AFNET, and the redirect page when you hit submit to login gets blocked. In the past if they happened, I was usually able to just refresh the page and the login would have taken, but not anymore. Any idea how to login at work, or are we just SOL?

I have over 50 messages saved, and with the new forum, it says I have to drop 50 or less to begin pm'ing again. Can you point me toward how I delete messages to get below 50? I do not see a DELETE function like on other sites.

It has come to my attention that some of our long time members accounts disappeared during the migration. I have a priority ticket in with the programmers to re-connect those accounts. Please bear with me as I get this straightened out. If your account went missing, please e-mail me the pertinent details to: missingaccount at flyingsquadron.com

Baseops'ers. The new www.baseops.net will be unveiled soon. Along with the design, I'd like to update a lot of content. If you or somebody you know would like to make a little side money, I need writers to give me updated data on: https://www.baseops.net/militarypilot/ -- and basically every page that this page links to https://www.baseops.net/militarypilot/usaf_ift.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/army.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/pushups.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/airforce.html https://www.baseops.net/basictraining/usmc.html and basically any page that you find that is out of date.... I will be looking for content write…

Any idea when the Aviation Jobs site will be back up? Unable to access via Safari.
