In the end, there was no fix or anything for the uploader yesterday—at least, not that I saw. I only had a couple of galleries for this week, but now they’re starting to pile up, and with Halloween coming up, I guess I’ll be flooding your newsfeeds with galleries again next week.
The masters and commanders of this site say that they’re going to release a fixed version of the uploader today. It’ll probably be down again within 20 minutes, since we’ll all start uploading like crazy! xD I guess it’s better to just wait until tomorrow. Still, it’s been an interesting week without any uploads—I wonder how many people have been driven absolutely mad by it.
Sunday... lots of comments this weekend. I guess since uploading isn't working folks have a bit more free time than they're used to. Appreciate that. I took the opportunity to post a Blog entry. Fap it out!
Well this wasn't supposed to happen, but it did. :roll:
As some of you have noticed, when you upload pictures you might see some errors.
This is because of a site update, basically called PHP. This was all over the news and listed as something that could be considered as critical if not fixed.
So the fix was put on our site. Everything seemed to be ok at the onset. Then the uploads started. Not everyone had an issue. And we know that because the new galleries you see were still strong.
I noticed that as the hours went by more errors were popping up. I notified the IT guys about this.
Honestly when a patch or fix was applied there was always that small chance that something could go wrong. And it did :cry:
For now the uploading function is still turned on. But if this mess continues to get worse we might just stop uploading until Monday or so.
The fix isn't just by looking at the code and doing a simple line or two of editing.
Hang on a little while. This fix is priority #1.
UPDATE : I will also note some of the obvious. The site is running incredibly slow. This will also be addressed.
