Descriptive Problem Summary:
The
online reference does not appear to be working correctly.
A) Using the search form on that page runs a general search on the BYOND forums, not on the reference.
B) Trying to open a reference entry only shows it's search "stub" entry with a short description and link to the entry (which will show the same stub again).
Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
1)
Go to the online reference
2) Run a search for "new"
3) See that a general forum search is run
4)
Return to the online reference
5) Select any link on the reference tree
6) Try to open the reference entry
7) See that a stub is returned, instead of the actual entry, as if you had run a search.
Expected Results:
The search box should search for reference entries, and click a link to an entry should show the full entry.
Actual Results:
The search box searches the forums, and there appears to be no way to reach the full reference entry pages.
Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often? Everytime
In other user accounts? Only account, administrator
On other computers? Tried it on two of my machines, both of which are running Firefox. Also tried it on my phone, which is using the default Android browser.
When does the problem NOT occur?
The
static version of the page appears to be working fine.
Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions? If so, what was the last version that worked? (Visit
http://www.byond.com/download/build to download old versions for testing.)
Did not occur before the site update
Workarounds:
Use static or Dream Maker version. I tried spoofing a few likely URLs to get to the full online entries, but was unsuccessful.
