That's probably the issue. The site wants 8 characters and there is a bug in that page whereas it doesn't show errors. I fixed the issue, but it hasn't hit the beta site yet.
'Objects In Space'
Buffistas Building a Better Board ++
Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Beta site will be down for awhile. Lots of stuff to do to update it.
Beta site is back.
The database has been reset and you should notice that the migrated data is much more up to date.
Mostly this is background work. The repo has been changed and ruby was upgraded from 2.5 to 2.6. However a fix has been put in for logging in so hopefully that will work for everybody now.
This update will facilitate making the bug fixes and missing features needed to finish things off.
Also, as I know you've all been waiting for, I updated the repo readme with the Nginx reverse proxy configuration.
I was definitely waiting for that.
I was able to log in with a new 8 character password. Things are looking good! I don't know if I love the boxes around the Mark and Block buttons, but I'm sure I can adjust.
Changed the post-displaying code to have '[link]' like it does now.
Oh, right! I need to check and see if I can actually log in now, huh?
The beta board beta.buffistas.me seems to be looking pretty good.
Probably could use some testing still, but I think we could start talking about a switchover. Issues that need to be fixed are going to be more minor than the issues it addresses (security, responsive design, and registration).
It is looking good! I just played around on my phone and only found a couple of little issues. The Mark and Block buttons feel very big (I accidentally blocked twice just scrolling) and new lines don't seem preserved for my "About me" in the profile so my list of old tags looks a humble. But those are pretty tiny!
Sounds like 'About Me' isn't going through the filter to transform the text into html. I think the links on the post header should probably be links instead of buttons.
