Rule of thumb:
On every forum, Internet questionnaire, website comment, or anything you write on the Internet, always select everything you just wrote and copy it to the clipboard every time before:

• uploading, refreshing, or previewing;
• always preview before posting.

Now, specifically on EBT forum: if you stay for a long time writing or pausing without previewing, you will get the following message when you click the Preview button:

The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again.

Just click Preview again and everything will be fine.

I had the problem happen earlier today, so I was able to copy the exact error message. It didn't mention anything about invalid forms (although I believe I've had that message in the past). The forum just disconnected me and asked me to log in again. It took me to the login screen with the following message:

Like you said, it isn't a major issue if you copy your post before displaying the preview.
It's just frustrating not to know where the problem comes from

Oh crap, that is frustrating indeed.

I know close to nothing about php (or anything IT for the matter), so I regret not being of help. I hope this gets fixed.

That is the sort of thing that may get fixed with a data clean in your browser (cookies and cache). It comes with the penalty of losing log-in's and other things that you'll have to re-enter.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll give it a try and let you know if that worked

Would it be possible to implement the ability to select "active hits" and "passive hits", when watching your hitlist?

I think I've found a solution to this… (at least it worked on my computer, I haven't been disconnected in the past couple of days). I first tried Montgomery Burns' suggestion, but was still getting randomly disconnected. And then when I was logging back into the forum, I spotted this:


Didn't even realize I had never ticked the box
I don't know if that's the same problem GWR7007 was having, but at least, it solved the problem for me.

Weird. There's apparently one note entry that does not have a denomination at all. I'll try to find out how that happened.

Is there a problem with the website's support? I submitted a request on Sunday evening (in English) and it still appears as "open".
(I'm not complaining, just curious because all the other requests I've submitted were handled really quickly)

Hmm… Was it some unusual task? I asked for a note deletion last Monday, and less than an hour later it was solved.

Mine was also a note deletion request. I had ten notes to delete, and I wanted to avoid making a bunch of different requests for the same task (there's an "Edit multiple notes" option, but not a "Delete multiple notes" option). So I made a single request and pasted the other note IDs in the extra information field. Was that a mistake? Should I have submitted 10 separate requests?

Hello trezay!

I'm a member of the support group and saw your request in the support system. Not everyone who has access to this system has access to the database itself.

As an example: I can't delete all 10 notes, because I have only 2 options (buttons) to choose: cancel or implement (1 of the 10 notes would be deleted, but all other notes which you wrote in the information field wouldn't be deleted) your request.

If you'd submit separate requests, I could handle them and all of the notes would be deleted. Otherwise you have to wait for a support member, who has more privileges.

Greets, tigerpranke

Thanks for your reply! I'll submit the other requests then

[Edit] Thanks for the deletion!

actually, support as a whole does not have the privilege to delete more than one note at a time (and that of course only as per request). only the database administrators could in principle do that, support cannot.
