Some bug reports

Discussion started by iterateCGI

In a previous post I mentioned a bug,
quote; if you enter on the homepage and click the CG models button and then click on categories in hoping to get an overview of everything posted, then all of a sudden de menu changes to the 3D print menu. (CG models button remains active regardless 3D print menu being active); end quote.

This bug has now switched over to 3D print, I'll try to explain.

So if you enter the site on the home page, then you will see the button "3D print" is active by default, however the cg models menu is displayed. If you pres the cg models button ones and then the 3D print button, then the menu suddenly switches to the correct 3D print menu. Now if you click on the category menu item itself, then the menu switches back to the 3D models menu again (3D print button stays active regardless 3D models menu displaying), from now on a second bug is introduced, you may press back and forth on both buttons, the 3D models menu will stay active whatever you do. The only way to resolve this menu lockup is by clicking home button.

Today I discovered jet another nasty bug (probably not the only one to discover this), if you enter someone's profile and click the "show all ..... 3d models" then in most cases you will be directed away from his profile and are now browsing CG models in general. Problem is best seen on someone's page listing more than 50 models, the page buttons below are not corresponding to the user profile, at some point it switches over to al categories.

The missing thumbnails issue also remain a problem for me, don't know if these problems are local ore browser related, I use firefox newest version.

Is anyone ells having these bugs?

Used to have the issues with the category buttons switching around for no reason and "show all" broken URLs last week but these work fine now.

The missing thumbnail issue. It is starting to look like it will be permanent as nothing has improved over the two weeks since site update. CGT said that they were moving stuff to a new server and resizing all of the preview renders, which takes a lot of time. But at this point I doubt that this will be fixed. What bother me about the issue is that when you upload new previews instead of the broken ones, the main thumbnail gets messed up.

Tested this with one of my models and now the previews are visible but main thumbnail image shows the 3rd render instead of 1st for some unknown reason (Leaves Bunny Egg Cup 06). So I am not willing to re-upload previews for other broken products as it will just mess up the thumbnails.

And no, it is not browser related.

Do you mean the drag thumbnails function gets broken when you upload new thumbnails? You do know you can drag thumbnails around to rearrange viewing order? Just checking if you know, because when I upload additional thumbnails the drag/rearrange function still works fine for me.

Yep. I mean that the main thumbnail is not the first preview image in the product page.

Aha, I see watt you mean now. Did you change naming convection of some images before uploading them? I'm not an expert on web applications, I know some CMS systems do a lot of server side data cashing. If you change some naming convections (of images you are uploading) and they correspond to some images still present in the data cash, then you can have some inconsistent results.(the CMS then uses the cached images and not the new uploaded ones). This is the case with joomla, (if cashing settings are not correct) don't know what CMS CGtrader is based upon.

That might be it but as far as I remember, CGT has fixed this over a year ago (images used to get a unique name after upload). Maybe they went back to using the old code with the latest update.
