SuttaCentral: bug reports

All Czech translation pages by Bhikku Ashin Sarana (the ones I checked) are empty.

E.g., SuttaCentral

@HongDa ?

Perhaps this can be moved to bug reports. @moderators Thank you!

This is a bug when I enable all references when I’m using Firefox.

This doesn’t have anything to do with the hotkeys, but it is a bug. I find that I have to set notes as side notes to reproduce. https://suttacentral.net/mn1/en/sujato?lang=en&layout=linebyline&reference=main%2Ccsp&notes=sidenotes&highlight=false&script=latin#5.1 And it’s not just that sutta. With multiple refs activated and sidenotes I see the same in MN2. I bet it’s there in others.

@HongDa?

Yes, that’s correct.

I’m observing that already for a while, but for some reason didn’t mention. I have notes always as sidenotes, and my preferred browser is Firefox. And when I activate even just PTS references, it’s already overlapping with the text. So I usually activate ā€œmainā€ references only, and that works.

Hi, this isn’t a bug per se; it’s what I’ve just observed and verifying this is by design.

If I click on a link in a Discuss & Discover thread, it will increase the ā€œclicked-onā€ # by 1. However, if I direct my browser to open it in a new tab, it won’t count toward the ā€œclicked-onā€ #.

I, for one, always click on links using the browser feature to open in a new tab so that I don’t lose the original tab.

Maybe what I’m saying is this: the utility of the clicked-on # when a percentage of users open it using the browser ā€œnew tabā€ feature.

Anyway, many thanks to our sysadmins and platform developers.

:elephant: :pray:

FWIW, there is no need to do this on the forum if you change your interface setting:

It may just be the way browsers work that opening in a new window through ctrl + click can’t be tracked. Just like if you copied the link and pasted it into a new tab.

The donation button does not work. It does not take me to stripe.

Hmm. Works for me. Could you give a very detailed report of the steps you take including the link that doesn’t work? And also exactly what happens. For example, are you taken to a blank page, or does nothing happen when you click?

Thanks @WayChuang

I’m trying to fix it.

Awesome, it displays correctly now. Thank you very much.

hmm, it works for me too now, sorry about the false alarm

I guess it was just a timeout issue from either stripe or on my side!

No worries. Appreciate your report. Better safe than sorry.

Thank you for this!

I’ve just started reading through John Kelly’s translation of Mil 3.1.1 ff, and find that it has no links at the bottom to the previous and next chapters.

That actually belongs in the SuttaCentral: bug reports thread. @HongDa, do you know what might be going on with that? Something need to be rebuilt?

Recently going to a Sanskrit text and wanting to change the script to Devanagari, it tells me: Pali is now shown in Devanagari script
Can the Sanskrit be shown in Devanagari script too?

Not a huge big point but I’m going through some of the Sanskrit texts and noticed that some of the transcribers are ignored. (I just picked up on this because there is only one woman transcriber and she is ignored too!)

If there are multiple transcribers, this is usually mentioned in the edition title. For instance SF 107 mentions: Daśottara—Kusum Mittal, Dieter Schlingoff
Also SF 140 mentions: Mahāsamāja—Ernst Waldschmidt, Lore Sander

BUT:
SF 253 mentions: Saį¹…gÄ«ti—Ernst Waldschmidt while it should be: Saį¹…gÄ«ti—Ernst Waldschmidt, Valentina Stache-Rosen

And for SF 276 the edition is not shown in the suttaplex card (should be Ernst Waldschmidt):
