Hey [violet]! The nation/region search is busted!

Postby Reploid Productions » Sat Jun 27, 2009 12:39 am

So I went to search for a particular nation or region via the search thingie on The World section. Tried it multiple times with nation and region names that I know exist. When I hit the button to search, it instead just takes me to my nation's page.

Anybody else run into this? It was working a few days ago. And there's something amusing and weird about being the forum admin and reporting a game bug :lol2:

Huh, was working yesterday. Whenever I try to search for a nation or region I'm redirected onto my nation's homepage. Wonder what the effect is logged out....

EDIT: Directed the NS Front Page. Totally borked, unless you happen to be searching for yourself.

Don't you mods don't have a secret modforum to post stuff like this, make fun of the players, and conspire to take over the world? :unsure:

But... but Forum #7 is the NS Sports forum! :shock:

And posting it here means we can get more verifications and stuff from players. 'Cause let's face it, there's a LOT more of you guys than there are mods! :lol:

You could fix that by making everyone a forum Mod, dear forum Admin :p

Oh, and I'm having the same problem, so there's a verification for ya ;)

Also, the RSS feeds are redirecting to the nation page. All of them, even the extended ones.

He moved some url rewriting rules from directory-specific files to a global configuration file. In theory, this should make us handle requests faster; it just had some unexpected consequences.
