Site Errors
Maben:
Two issues that I think deserve their own thread:
1. All searches of forums result in "Please try again. If you come back to this error screen, report the error to an administrator."
2. The wiki site does not email back a confirmation email. This prevents new users from being able to log in and submit covers. This seems to be a huge issue to this site's mission.
*BONUS*
3. Searching for covers with apostrophes (Such as "King's Quest") screws up the search and results in no results. Fix?

1. Dunno when that happened, but it was working as recently as about a week ago :/
2. Does the wiki require an Admin approval like the forums do? Also, have you tried signing up with another email addy? I know that my SBC account blocks almost every forum registration email that I get.
3. I would just dumb down your search. Also, everything's indexed, so it's not like it takes more than a few seconds to anything find.
Maben:
1. Yes, it was working but has been broken for at least a few days now.
2. The wiki claims to send out an automated email but it never arrives (even after repeated requests to resend it). It's not my email and I know others have had (are having?) this problem.
3. Yes I know I can work around it, but it seems like something that should be addressed eventually.

Nope.

I hope the search function is fixed soon.
