Text disappeared on pet profiles?
Replies
This is effecting LOTS of my pets, but here are a few for examples: Page, Obelisk, Tar. Strangely, some of my pets still display their stories.
I haven't touched the code for these pets in months (YEARS in some cases, like my old spotlight winners) but for some reason all the text in the divs doesn't display. If I look at the code, the text is all still there and hasn't been erased, it just doesn't show up. They were fine two days ago.
What could have gone wrong? Or is it an error on just my end? I have tried to view them in multiple browsers and they all look the same.
for all three pets' profiles, at least on my browser, it looks like your code is missing the </style> tag.
can you ctrl+f to this part of the code (which seems to be the same on all three of the profiles)?
if it matches that exactly, replace it with this (you'll notice i added in the </style> tag between the hidden; }h2 { visibility: hidden; }
:
h2 { visibility: hidden; }</style>
- I'm having that same problem on my user profile. It was fine until I removed the code from a profile I just made for someone yesterday. I was seeing everything fine this morning but the funny thing was was that the person I made the profile for couldn't see the content. It's possibly a site bug which is where I'm checking next. If I find out anything I'll let you know!
We recently made some sCode updates that may be affecting profiles due to some stricter rule enforcement about what code is allowed.
If you are seeking help, please consider posting your code in a pastebin to make it easier for others to investigate :)

- Thanks! I actually just posted this in bugs. The crazy thing was that some people could see but others couldn't. That's the most confusing thing. :P
It is because we're rolling out the new sCode filter bit by bit, instead of all users simultaneously, mainly so we can monitor things like database usage and stuff while ramping it up just in case something goes wrong. So some users don't see it because they're not on the new sCode outside of the forums yet. (It is a bit confusing, I know xD)

The </style> tag is on there, it's just bumped down a few spaces below the hidden;} :'(
aaaa I figured there was some kind of site update that caused it. Here is a pastebin for one of them. x.x
Hm... can you try adding quotes around the text/css in the style tag, like this

aaaaa it worked! Bless you, you are a god. <3
- Ok... So I'm lucky and seeing the new stuff now? If I don't use sCode on my profile how do I figure out what's wrong? Sorry to be a bother! I'm starting to panic about the 100 + profiles I've made for people over the last 10 years. dies
edit: just tried the quote thing! Thank you! :D
Whether you have sCode in it or not, it's going through the new processor, which is a little more strict now about both sCode and HTML being correct. If it looks broken to you, you can post the coding here and people will help (like me if I have time!)
It isn't your fault if code you made years ago stops working perfectly. Site updates happen, and there's no way you could foresee it. If anyone speaks up about a broken profile, there are a lot of other users who will look at the code and help fix it, me included :) And usually it's just a small thing that broke it, nothing huge. Like with it was just a single pair of quotation marks.
