Please use the Help button to provide bug reports and technical support requests.  Also please remember that only cake and cake related photos are allowed in the gallery.

Thanks

It's the work around that people are using as we can't post photos  in threads any more. Perhaps an amnesty on that rule should be in place until photos can be added in-thread again, or a specific gallery for non-cakes could be added. 


Yes however The Help link allows you to attach files to your inquiry, so screenshots can be included with your request for support.

 


 I had to add a cake from someone else to my gallery to be able to include the link for the picture in a thread. Had the picture saved on my computer and couldn't find the link on the internet anymore.

 Not a great feeling to post pictures of someone else in MY gallery.

 Can you not get the "attach picture" function back please?

Yes it will be back by next week.

3/19/2015 Forum Update!
  1. Forum Linking Update
  2. Forum Pagination Update


Quote by @Lizzybug78 on 6 Mar 2015 , 2:10am

Also, now clicking on the alarm at the top for  notifications puts me straight back to the front page. 


1. Forum Linking Update

Link-back to specific forum posts is now live.  This means that when you get an email or alert, the link will take you directly to the page, and scroll to the specific post within that conversation. Previously, you would be taken to the start of the conversation.

Here is an example of how the new links look:

http://www.cakecentral.com/forum/t/783385/welcome-to-the-updated-cake-central-experience/90#post_7579117

In each post above the "Actions" menu you should see some text that looks like "post # of #total posts"

This way you can share links to specific posts again.


Quote by @MBalaska on 3 days ago

can you put the page jumper at the top of the page as well as at the bottom?


2. Forum Pagination Update

There are page navigation links at the top and bottom of every conversation (that has more than 1 page)

I wasn't sure if you wanted that on a thread or submitted for that one. I will take it off my gallery once I have more time. But in general I typed in "Over mixed batter" and got error 500 along with all the ads showing their script. I use Firefox browser with Noscripts, but I had all the scripts enabled, so it wasn't because of the NoScript program.


I will say that it was very disappointing to see those "lose that belly fat now" ads on here. I will keep scripts disabled on here because of that since those types of ads are known to be "problem children."

Please submit all bug reports, feedback, and feature requests via the help section.  Putting them in threads in the forum will likely leave them undocumented and overlooked.

Your gallery of cakes used to be so well organized and user friendly.  What happened to it?  It has become almost impossible to view the cakes by category/item when it was so convenient as it used to be in your previous system.  Can you find a way to make it easier to use.  I tried doing a search by type of design - for instance typing "teddy bears" in the search window - and that only gave me an error message.  How can one see the cakes by category?  Thanks

Avatars in the Forum now hidden for mobile users.

if your screen size is 480px or smaller (most phones in portrait & landscape mode) the forum avatars will not show, giving you more screen space to view the conversation content.

  • Avatars on the left of the page mean there's much less space for text - particularly irritating when viewing on a mobile. It's a forum, I don't care about Avatars, I care about what people are posting.

does the search engine scope for keywords in the title and/or description of photos? or does it only look at tags?

How do I receive notifications of new messages that I answer or follow? I'm still getting notifications (via email) from older links but the new ones am not.

I'm finding the new site a tad confusing... Sorry to be a downer as I know you have put so much hard work into it but it doesn't seem as user friendly as the old one.

I flagged the photo the other day with a note that naughty cakes shouldn't show up on the front page... 

Hopefully they will get it fixed soon... (As well as the daily spam)

This week we are focusing on completely rebuilding the broken site search and reimplementing the new user first post moderation to cut down spam.

Just wanted to put out a quick note so you all knew which things were being worked on this week.  Hopefully both those items will be done by the weekend.

How does one jump from one page to another without having to do it one at a time when looking at the  gallery, used to be able to click on the three little dots and type in a page number, now all that comes up is  a red circle with a red slash inside it.  Thanks for the help.

How is it that every picture in the gallery is NSFW??? I can see on the front page it's a minion cake, but when I click to view it, it comes with a message NSFW  and that I must change my privacy settings. I do not wish to do so, since I do not wish to view naughty cakes gallery, but at the moment every single cake I click to view is NSFW !

I just noticed the same issue as above when I clicked through a picture I had posted on Pinterest.  NSFW!  It surely isn't suitable for me to eat that cake at work lol.

Maybe hurry up on that spam filter... 16 PAGES of spam this morning was not fun... And I am not flagging all of it... I don't have that kind of time...
