Forum bugs

[Colby Russell]

This can be considered a bug report against the forums.

Title: It can be difficult or impossible to create a forum account
—

1. Visit https://octavosystems.com/forums/
2. Look for a way to create an account
3. Click “Log in” instead
4. Look for a way to create an account
5. Click back
6. Resize the browser window to fullscreen

Expected results:

There’s a link to https://octavosystems.com/create-account/ on the forum main page and on the login page.

Actual results:

There are no links to create an account on either page, until step 6 after resizing the browser window.  Then a “Create Account” link appears at the top.

After playing around and resizing my browser window to various sizes, it looks like there are four layouts: narrow, narrow-medium, medium-wide, and wide.  The “Create Account” link appears in the narrow-medium and wide layouts, but no link shows up in the narrow layout or medium-wide.  After logging in, the same problem occurs with the link to the user profile, but only in medium-wide.

Title: Typo “Roll” on Create Account page
—

1. Visit https://octavosystems.com/create-account/
2. Look at the last text field before the captcha

Expected results:

I’m guessing that you mean to ask for “Role”.

Actual results:

It says “Roll”.

Note that the “roll” issue also appears on the user profile page.

Colby,

Thanks for the feedback.  What web browser were you using so we can make sure to add that to our future testing.

Thanks,
Erik

Thanks for the Feedback Colby.  I have corrected the Roll/Role Typo.  I am working on adding the create account links.

Let us know if you find anything else.

Just added a registration link to the login page.  Again thanks for the feedback.
