buttons no longer work in internet explorer

bungle wrote 6 years ago: 1

was asked to make a new thread regarding this..so lately I have been noticing some bugs using this site on internet explorer.

the first one is while browsing within the episode pages - the button to edit the info has now moved to the right pane under episode info, but doesn't let you click it.

the second one is within the forums - you're no longer able to click the reply button on people's posts, or even the button to edit your own post.

the third and final is while using the text editor - it would seem that the toolbar to edit formatting is completely missing in internet explorer. because of this formatting being stipped,when entering data it seems to insert the summaries all as one big paragraph.

hope this helps. ;)

Sounds like JavaScript is disabled.

Have you made any changes to your settings?

hmm yes I did recently update java to the newest version but it doesn't seem to affect all browsers, as these problem do not exist for me in edge.

hehe, true but I bet if you was to see the stats for what browsers this site is run on you might be surprised how many do not use chorme or firefox. hell i'm willing to bet there's some still that haven't even upgraded from windows xp yet. :D

Almost all of the libraries and frameworks we use have dropped support for Internet Explorer years ago, so we definitely can't formally support it. I highly recommend switching to Firefox or otherwise Chrome.

We don't have Internet Explorer ourselves so we're not able to look into any of this either. But what you could try to do is find the "javascript console" or "developer console", see if any error messages pop up when you perform this action, and send us a screenshot if so.

^ have no idea what any of this stuff means, but you guys might probably find it useful.

@david If you want to do it, looks like you'd need to use something like babeljs to transpile the ECMAScript 2015 (ES6) JavaScript to ECMAScript 5.
