File bug reporting system and image uploading updates

[Thandal]

 

For performance reasons, I am using an older than 4.0 version of Firefox. Isn't there some way for people who choose to use older versions of browsers to be able to upload images? Something like an oldsystem.nexusmods.com to go alongside the new upload system.

 

 

For security reasons, (among others) "No". Firefox is now on version 38.0.1.

(It's also time for you to stop using WinXP. :laugh: )

Edit: It worked on IE, for some reason.

On my main browser, dragging and placing does nothing, while clicking the manual upload button also does nothing. On IE, dragging and dropping only shows the image on my computer while not actually uploading the image, while the manual button - surprise, surprise - also does not work.

At this point, I am wondering what I should do to use the new and "improved" image system that replaced the perfectly functional old image upload system, should I download three alternate browsers in the vain hope that one of them will allow me to post images of my mods/stuff I downloaded to other users who may benefit from knowing what they're downloading beforehand? Should I beg others for whom this incorrigible new system works to upload my images for me?

I can't imagine who in the world is so inconvenienced by reloading pages that they can use it as justification to break the previously-functional image system. Whoever you guys are/were, thanks guys!

I don't want to increase everyone's loading time, so I will post only the URL to the screenshot showing my problem here:

I appear to have much the same problems as others have reported:

• Clicking the "Or choose them browsing your computer..." button does nothing
• Dropping images into the "Drop your images here" box mostly just opens the image in a new browser tab
• Positioning the cursor over the centre of the word "here" in "Drop your images here" and then dropping the images does generate a "Do you want to upload ..." pop-up: this does nothing when "OK" is selected
• Using the "Submit" button with various combinations of the above just gives a message indicating no upload occurred
  

The browser I used for this was Opera (and yes, checking for updates indicates I'm using the latest version). I also have Firefox and IE but, given the problems reported for these, I chose not to try them.

Drastic workaround: transfer images to a different operating system (Mac OS X); use that O/S's default browser, Safari (which I personally hate - all sorts of reasons - avoiding rant here); images were uploaded. Note: I tried Opera on this O/S before trying Safari: results as indicated above.

[As a computer programmer with over four decades experience, my recommendation would be that the web development team perform more thorough testing before releasing new (or updated) software.]

After clicking Submit, though, all that happened was that the post disappeared and nothing showed up on the bug tracker at all. I thought it might just be server lag or something, but its been about 20 minutes now, and nothing ever showed up on the bug tracker.

(FYI, the post never did appear on the bug report tracker.)

Can we mark versions so they don't count for bug reports? E.g. My mod has a soundtrack file, so when people download that after the actual mod their bug report version number shows up as "soundtrack" which isn't particularity useful.

Hey! I don't know where to post this but I am having a strange bug with the Skyrim Nexus website itself. I haven't tried any other Nexus sites but so far it is only Skyrim Nexus. Anyhow, the Nexus Chat is not working. It says there is an error and it will not load the chat. I agreed to their terms and haven't said anything I shouldn't so far as I am aware so I don't know what went wrong. I don't know if this is a coincidence or not but there appears to be zero people on the chat list as well. Peraps they are all having the same error as I am? I don't know. Anyhow, just wondering who I shoul tell since I am relatively new to the chat feature of this site.

 

Many thanks in advance!

(Oh, and the Chat Room is down for everyone. I'm sure the Admins are working on it, but I have no idea what happened or when it might get fixed.)

Hi Guys,

 

Just a thought regarding your image uploading system - I recently implemented MoxieManager into my companies flagship web system and it's been a hit with all of our customers. We use the .NET version and it works great - maybe something to consider?
