Some other wesite bugs

Bazzy (3179)
I believe twicker has been resting enough since the last bugs were reported so is time for some new: - When clicking my name on the left bar when in one of the fourms, it directs to (example) http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/Bazzy/ instead of http://www.cplusplus.com/member/Bazzy/ - The PM edit box is missing some format buttons - I can't read any of the PM I wrote ( those at 'Sent messages saved' ) - The output box at http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdlib/atof/ is showing <tt> html tags - At http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/ all the links to some stream header go to http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/ instead of that specific header

I've never been able to read PM's I've sent.

firedraco (2048)
^Me either.

kempofighter (525)
I agree. When I try to read sent and saved PMs I get an access denied error.

QWERTYman (351)
Same.

chrisname (1342)
Me too.

Yeah I got the problem with not being able to read sent PMs too. I think I wrote reporting it but didn't get a reply.

While I'm thinking about it, it is very difficult to access PMs that people send having no subject (that is, where the subject field was left blank by the poster). When it gets to the recipient's mailbox, there is no subject field to click on to open the message. (You have to read the page's source to get the link directly, or click "reply" to get a text-version of the poster's message.)

Yeah, I've seen the same thing happen with a forum thread. I think I decided not to reply to it just because the poster was such a goddamn moron. Seriously, what the fuck? If you're going to ask a question, at least have the courtesy to give the thread a proper title. That's like going up to someone on the street and asking for directions, but start talking from the middle of a sentence.

chrisname (1342)
What thread was this?

helios (4790)
It was some months ago.

chrisname (1342)
Oh...

Duoas (2964)
I remember that one. I think twicker caught it and gave it a name (or maybe he just deleted it?)...

I believe twicker has been resting enough since the last bugs were reported so is time for some new: Thanks. I love bugs! - When clicking my name on the left bar when in one of the fourms, it directs to (example) http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/lounge/Bazzy/ instead of http://www.cplusplus.com/member/Bazzy/ fixed - The PM edit box is missing some format buttons fixed - I can't read any of the PM I wrote ( those at 'Sent messages saved' ) fixed - The output box at http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/clibrary/cstdlib/atof/ is showing <tt> html tags corrected - At http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/ all the links to some stream header go to http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/ instead of that specific header For some reason, the reference for the iostream library was designed in terms of classes, not headers (like all other library components). So not all headers have a page in the reference. While I'm thinking about it, it is very difficult to access PMs that people send having no subject (that is, where the subject field was left blank by the poster). When it gets to the recipient's mailbox, there is no subject field to click on to open the message. (You have to read the page's source to get the link directly, or click "reply" to get a text-version of the poster's message.) This was reported some time ago, and thought it was fixed. Please report it with specifics if it happens again. I really appreciate your help to improve the page. Please, keep the bugs coming as you find them.

It's not a bug, but it's annoying. Could there be a "link to post" button? Having to look at the source is not very practical.

Duoas (2964)
Yeah, that would be sweet.

Could there be a "link to post" button? Having to look at the source is not very practical. I've just added a small chain link for that purpose right beside the date. Is that what you mean?

Duoas (2964)
Yes! Yeah! Thank you!

I have an observation/request. When a post is edited or deleted the 'new' icon is displayed in the top level of the forums view. When you go into the forum there is no 'new' icon there, this sort of makes sense but it would be nice to have an 'edited' icon next to the post that was edited. I'm not sure about when a post gets deleted, maybe not have the new icon at the top level.

I also would want something like that so I don't have to check the CP to see if anyone responded or not when I help them (the very few number of people I actually help).
