Namur asked me a while ago to take over management of his Bugs thread as he doesn't have time for it anymore, I just hope it won't get too busy handling both it and my own Mulitlingual GOGs list (unlikely, it's not as either usually get a lot of additions as far as I've seen). To begin with, I have merely reformatted (and slightly cleaned up) Namur's list to be concistent with my other list, as well as added links to the approprite post in Bugs where missing. Unlike Multilingual GOG's, however, I will keep Namur's idea of summarising the issue and linking to the appropriate post rather than adding the full info to the list itself.

Anyhow, this is the new community-managed place to report bugs - bugs with the site itself, not games.

Please, when submitting a bug, include your browser and version.

----- March 2012 -----

Typing in the game search box then reloding the page, keeps the field filled-in, but clicking only put's the cursor at the beginning, not the end
Firefox (11) only? Chromium (17), Opera (11.62), Epiphany (3.0.4) all empty the field on reload.
(thanks xaemar)

Apparently affects Chrome 17/18, Firefox 11, Explorer 9.

Typo in the pop up window warning about post lenght, "You're post is too lenghty" should be "Your post is too lenghty"
(thanks Lone3wolf)

There's no way to bypass the merging grace period when a post needs to be split up in two due to its lenght
There's waiting out the 10 minutes grace period to post the second half of the intended original post, but maybe a function allowing a 'too lenghty post' to be split up into two consecutive posts would be useful.
(thanks Lone3wolf)

Extras for both M&M7 and M&M8 are missing the game specifix prefix
(i.e. you get 'manual.zip instead of mm7_manual.zip).
(thanks Thiev)

Gifting seems to be broken unless the user already owns the game he's trying to gift
*** Until it gets fixed there's an easy workaround for this issue, check this post. (thanks ceemdee)

The # of total topics displayed on each of the individual boards varies according to the "Topics per forum page" setting, which basically means that at any given time there are topics 'missing' from the majority of individual boards.

Space reserved for a bug farm to keep the critters in check.

This should be way more than enough (especially given that the breaker is not anonymous - since anonymous postings were disabled a while ago - but my "shadow" account, used now for the first time), feel free to continue as if this were my predecessor's thread.

Thief Gold and Thief 2 aren't marked as being from the same series. For some reason, they're both written in capital letters.
Deus Ex - the E in "edition" should be capitalized (also applies to its forum name).

Aridoom: ...
Thanks
Bug with IE9:

When writing posts, if you click the Bold / Italic / Underlined / URL buttons, the tags are always placed on the start of the post.

Example (where awesome was supposed to be tagged by selecting it and then clicking on a tag):

[tag][/tag] I am so awesome.
avatar
kavazovangel: [tag][/tag] I am so awesome.
Indeed.
A few minor things on the "My account" page concerning links to the game specific forums:

-Thief Gold and Thief 2 link to a 404 page (should be http://www.gog.com/en/forum/thief_series instead of http://www.gog.com/en/forum/thief)
-Alien Breed links to http://www.gog.com/en/forum/ instead of http://www.gog.com/en/forum/alien_breed
-the following games list the wrong number of topics (probably the number of topics of the 1nsane forum): Worms United, Alien Breed + Tower Assault, Thief 2

EDIT: This has all been fixed except for the wrong number of topics on Worms United and Alien Breed + Tower Assault (which is really minor anyway)

EDIT 2: I'm not sure if fixed Bugs are supposed to be removed from the list, so I'll just report that the following issue from November 2011 reported by me has also been fixed by now:
"Link to Lands of Lore forum on the info pop up box on the shelf is linking to the 1nsane forum "

GOG finally edited the forum names to reflect their products more accurately. For instance, "Wing Commander Privateer" is now "Wing Commander series".

As a consequence, a lot of the links from the "My Account" page are now broken. The following links lead to a 404:
http://www.gog.com/en/forum/hitman
http://www.gog.com/en/forum/crusader_no_remorse_
http://www.gog.com/en/forum/desperados_wanted_dead_or_alive

The following links seem to be redirected:
http://www.gog.com/en/forum/broken_sword_the_smoking_mirror

Also Soulbringer links to the 1nsane forum and Superfrog and Worms United display the wrong number of topics

EDIT: Seems fixed now. Wow, that was really fast. Probably someone was already working on it. :)

I think it's really nice that all the forums are finally consistently named and addressed. I'm a bit concerned for links to specific posts and threads, especially from outside. Are there redirections in place?

Thanks all, I'll be updating the list later today. Or at least before next week.

Been busy, and forgot to do it when I've had the time.
Cossacks Anthology is at the top of the Catalog in alpha sort.
Is it normal that some threads I have never seen before are marked as read by default, if the first post is low-rated?
