    @taniwharugby

    Thanks

    I don't get the issue myself. Does anyone else get it? I presume it's a recent issue?

    As usual it's worth clearing the browser cache. There were a lot of changes early last week

    Think I msy have had the issue previously, but not recently.

    Well that was a waste of time

    An error on the last step which I can't fix right now. So we've rolled back to the 3pm backup

    On a positive note - the backups work

    Thank Christ for that! Imagine if @MN5 had to repost his entire meme collection.

    again.

    The way that's going it might not have been wise.

    Doing it manually is possible, but it's more work. This is from that same webpage, and shows you how to do it:

    SR Results Page

    https://www.thesilverfern.com/sr-results

    Aussie Teams and Super Rugby AU are searchable

    No one was asking for this

    Eventually I assume the two comps will combine post covid. So I'll keep the results in one place now.

    Match Details

    I realised we were capturing a lot of info about games. So now that is collected on a single page.

    On the SR & NPC results table recent matches will have a View Details button:

    view details.png

    Clicking on that opens a new page with teamlists, highlights and the top 10 liked posts from the TSF thread.

    The teamlists were correct when they were named. I wouldn't rely on them being correct though.

    Currently the details go back to last years NPC and SR Aotearoa. Over time it should become a reasonable reference of what inane jokes were upvoted in match threads

    @Duluth Only get it when I first open a session - I click on unread and everything works.

    I figured it was some sort of age discrimination test thing 😉

    Ok, I was planning on doing a software update in the middle of this week. I'll try another method of embedding FB videos when I do that

    @antipodean said in Dark theme constantly resets:

    As per title, I use the dark theme and it constantly resets to the light theme without rhyme nor apparent reason. All tsf cookies are enabled and I'm using Opera. Anyone else experience this disturbance in the force?

    Hmm, no recent changes

    The plugin that does the css switch hasn't been updated for 3 years. The core forum app hasn't been updated on the tsf server for a few months

    All that is happening is that button sets a key/value in the browsers local storage. So something else must be clearing it out?

    @Yeetyaah said in NPC results archive:

    We just chuck results in the thread? I've come by a Waikato season overview book from the 1980 season which has all match results in it.

    Thanks but I think we have all the results now?

    I didn't include any 2nd division games before the 14 team competition. It was getting too complicated
    In 1980 Waikato wasn't in the first division

    @Crucial It’s busier than during the world cup.

    That might actually be me avoiding work.

    Results page is up now
    https://www.thesilverfern.com/results/

    You can get to it from the front page links here:

    link.png

    Season Results

    The page defaults to showing the current season. There's a menu to select previous seasons

    default.png

    Team Results

    The team results are is more interesting

    Select 'Search By Team', then select a team

    The Team results can be filter by:

    Opposition Home/Away Year

    The table will filter and so will the summary card

    Filter.png

    The table collapses down to phone size but the info is easier to read on larger screens (maybe go to landscape mode on a phone)

    There will be an All Blacks version of this page. Also a NPC one (not sure how far that will go back though)

    Let me know if anything is broken or if you have any suggestions
