Skype field in profiles fixed.

Xkeeper · Jan 9, 2010

Good news, everyone! It's fixed! This means Tweaker no longer has to manually add them and you don't lose them if you click the edit profile button.

The dramatic story below.

NINEKO: SO HEY THE SKYPE FIELD IN PROFILES IS BROKE
XKEEPER: I'LL FIX IT

05:14'24" Xkeeper: yes
05:16'18" Xkeeper: had to move because SURPRISE SURPRISE
05:16'32" Xkeeper: the ACP requires javascript

05:20'17" Xkeeper: busy punching the ACP

05:23'02" Xkeeper: Seriously does that hack work for anybody?
05:23'14" nineko84: What hack?
05:23'17" Xkeeper: the skype one
05:23'22" nineko84: I don't know
05:23'37" nineko84: But some people have a skype name in their profile
05:23'51" Xkeeper: I'm curious how.
05:24'21" nineko84: I know Tweaker has been able to set them, when I complained to him that the field was missing from the user cp, instead of fixing it, he entered my skype name by his own

05:26'55" Xkeeper: IPB is just being an ass in the pain as usual
05:28'17" Xkeeper: Yay, time to play PHP Archolegy!
05:28'27" Xkeeper: this'll be fun given that I lost the ability to spell words a few hours ago.

05:37'14" Xkeeper: I want to punch IPB
05:37'23" nineko84: I can guess why

05:45'35" nineko84: Don't lose your mind over this
05:45'47" Xkeeper: I just realized why my change wasn't showing up
05:45'49" Xkeeper: wrong skin 8)
05:50'35" Xkeeper: hey guess what !
05:50'44" nineko84: You made it work?
(it worked in the User CP, but not the profile page like the other quick-edits... let's fix that too)

06:11'21" Xkeeper: oy.
06:11'27" nineko84: Yes?
06:11'36" Xkeeper: trying to RE the javascript
06:11'51" Xkeeper: excepthtatit'salllikethisincondencedSHITCODEsoyoucantfuckingseeanythingevenifyoucouldfind
thefuckingfunctionyourelookingfor
06:11'58" nineko84: Needs more {}
06:12'06" Xkeeper: 'right
06:12'18" Xkeeper: <<<<<<<{#{!!{%!IK%DS OhfVAR%!@%!@|%!@|%CHEESEBURGEHRER#%}@% !#^>#^^># >QWERTYUIOP javascript SUCKS
06:12'26" nineko84: lol
06:12'30" nineko84: irl
(yes, it is that bad)

06:21'01" Xkeeper: This is sad
06:21'06" Xkeeper: I have to use a fucking packet sniffer to debug this JS

06:33'41" nineko84: I'm really sorry to leave now that I asked you to help, but I really have to go D:
06:33'48" Xkeeper: oh, well
06:34'10" Xkeeper: yeah, I just need to update all the skins to fix some names
06:34'12" Xkeeper: the code is fixed
06:34'17" Xkeeper: took me an hour to find the fucking file, but I did it
Click to expand...

In other words, I have now made my bi-yearly fix to the Sonic Retro domain, thereby justifying my administrative privledges for another year or so

Now if you excuse me, I'm going to go put a gun in my mouth to bed HA HA NEVER MIND.

I always thought I just had no privileges to do it. Now as I read this and tried it out:

I love you. *shot*

javascript sucks as a language in general, it's annoying that it has such prominence on the web =|
