Title: Shoutbox/Mumble Help
Post by: Talon on May 05, 2012, 05:42:51 PM
Good morning, everyone.

I could swear there was a shout box when I first loaded up the site the other day but it's gone now. Also the forum keeps telling me to scroll down to the mumble widget. I can see neither.

Am I doing something wrong? I've tried in both IE and Chrome.

Thanks for any help.

I see you found the Shout box.
Did you find the Mumble?

I did post to the shout box the other day but I cannot find it any more.
And no, I also cannot find mumble.

I'm sure it's something simple that I'm overlooking.

Is it possible you clicked the little - and collapsed either or both of them, so they are not visible?  Do you see anything at all in the right sidebar?

All right.
I'm assuming it's meant to be under the forum part?

None of the pages seem to have a right sidebar at all unless I log out. Then I see the guild leadership one. There are no minus signs while logged in. This is rather confusing as I know I have seen it when I first joined 'cause I posted to the shout.

It occurs to me this probably happened when we set your membership to "GW2 recruit". Let me go log in from my Admin account and see if there's a setting missing on the membergroup.

Thanks, Alirrin. That makes sense. I've taken screenshots of logged in and out to show you what I mean, just in case, but I doubt you need to see them.
I might also add that when logged in the home page does not have the pretty picture and the text beneath it. It's completely blank.

I'll wait with bated breath for your reply and I appreciate your looking into it.

That was it, we hadn't updated the permissions to the sidebar panels after adding GW2 ranks.  You're the first person to be added to a GW2 group without also already being in another game's group, so we hadn't noticed yet.

Is everything working now?

You fixed it!
Everything is spot on. I shall refrain from posting an arbitrary post in the shout box.

Thank you, both. I really appreciate it.

The first? I feel special. Hopefully this'll help with anyone following. Glad some good could come from it.

Thanks again.

Please shout away.
And due to your cheery disposition, I've given you a Tag Line.
Just make sure you explain it to Jasyn, or he may think you've got never ending Ale.

Nice work Alirrin.

Suddenly, I feel my ale sense tingling, and it led me to this thread.

You know, if everyone did that, the shout box would be awful quiet, and we'd be forced to rename it the whisper box.  Or something.  And I'd never have an excuse to use it myself.

And by the way, Pinky (or is it Rosie?  Personally, I prefer Pinky.  NARF! ), when asked to come up with a quote to describe himself, Jasyn once said, "Some folks look at a mug 'n call it half empty...  I look at a mug 'n say it needs to be emptied all the way, refilled 'n emptied again."
