Help #2

Assuming the tags of the corresponding entries have been updated, they should properly have their size listed in there, however, so you can circumvent the issue by searching for the tags at least. However, given that older entries do not necessarily have up-to-date tags, this may prove unreliable until you manually update them for all your books.

I see, what is the easiest way to manually update entries? Because if I go back and look at an old entry the size is still listed in the new way, but the tag is missing.

When on the item page, you only need to click the tag icon on the right-hand side of the box with the tags. Doing so allows you to add additional tags, but it also adds or updates any tags automatically added by the system, so that's all you need to do.

I'd like to list an ad for an item that isn't in the database (a somewhat rare/obscure poster). I tried to add an entry to the database but it says I'm not allowed to view the page. How do I list the ad for this? Thanks.

Hi,

I introduced my friends to this website and he decided to also make an account to add his collection of items.
His account was quickly terminated, he got no email about why.
We wrote (1 year ago) to one of the admin, we got a promise that he will help, but unfortunately we not received any reply.
The worst thing that since nowdays the site for his profile not write that is terminated instead write “the user not exist”.

Is there anything he can do to get his account back? He also sent an email but no reply yet.

Can somebody help us please? :(

Thank you in advance.

You can't make an MFC ad for an item without a entry. I would recommend finding a fitting club that allows sales posts.

OK, thanks for letting me know.

Is there a way to lock a poll?

For example, if I put a user poll up in a club that I want to only leave open until a set date, can I "close" it so that people can no longer vote, but the results of the poll remain visible?

Also, can you hide the icon in a club in the same way you can hide your icon from your profile? It blocks the banner so being able to hide it would be nice, if possible.

Thanks

Trying to determine if I need an admin to assist please?

Our previous club creator / admin left the club and turned it over to me.
However, when trying to edit the home page, it is still showing up under the former creator's name instead of mine.

Do I need to request a club ownership transfer or related, if possible?

For: CLUB #2230

Thank you.

(Tried searching the forum and comments, but could not find this topic; apologies if missed it.)

tomura • 1 month ago • #120650405clubs will always show their original creator regardless of new ownership/admins. this unfortunately is not able to be changed or removed without some sort of site update.
Thank you for the reply, much appreciated.

Is it safe to assume that any page that shows up after I click "buy" at figure page here is safe?

I found the Hobbby Link Japan has a figure I would like to get but It doesn't say if it's new or if used and what condition it's in. Is this shop selling new ones or it's some kind of auction thing like amazon etc?

They're approved by staff to be included in the list.

It doesn't mean that they're only shops that sells legit stuff - AmiAmi (new/used) and Mandarake (used only) are pretty popular with collectors.

Hobby Link Japan sells only brand new stuff. All shops sells new stuff unless stated, like on Solaris Japan or Akiba Soul.

There's few "shops" (Buyee, Nekoyo, Zenmarket) that are actually proxies - they have offers from Japanese sites like Amazon JP, Yahoo Auctions and Mercari (private offers) and buy stuff for you. It comes with additional fees.

If you have any questions regarding shops, you can check the proper thread in Shop Club forum club/72/discuss... and ask questions after joining in.

What's the 'Ariadne thread' in the settings menu for?

lytits • 1 month ago • #120715995What's the 'Ariadne thread' in the settings menu for?
Hello! It'll be easier to show you:



It's that highlighted menu. It's essentially a "string" of links to see which pages lead you where.

Ah! That's useful, better to left it checked then, thank you.

Mistranslation of breadcrumb. It's a direct translation from French. But yeah, the thing shown as highlighted.

Is it possible to get in contact with the site admins? I've had a technical issue for the last few days that has made the site borderline unusable.

In the off chance the admins are reading this, there has been a repeating issue with the site having the following error code View spoilerHide spoiler it is a firefox issue where Firefox isn't able to establish a secure connection to a site due to the browser's “cipher suites” failing. every page is taking multiple attempts to load/get past the error and even once on the page things are loading at about 50000 ping.

please try and fix this, I know not many people are using firefox but for those of us that do it is incredibly frustrating

Also using Firefox primarily, and others here... no issues with a secure connection but have seen some extended load times and some sporadic timeouts of late (not sure if was WonFes related earlier or not?), but MFC is still generally functional for me.

MFC's semi-recently refreshed cert looks good, and the root seems fine too, so initially doubtful it is server-side. The error you noted is often seen with client-side troubles though.

Tomura mentioned clearing your cache, etc., as one solution, which can sometimes help if you're running an especially large cache size.

- Try turning off auto cache management if FF is reporting an excessive cache size on your PC and this is enabled. Check override auto cache management, and set it to a reasonable value (e.g. 100MB or something); clear your cache if FF is reporting it to be really large and try reloading.

If you've already done that or do not have an excessive cache size on your PC, then would recommend you check and see if you are using FF's DoH (DNS over HTTPS) service in browser, and if so, try temporarily disabling it to see if that solves your trouble (if you don't have access to another browser on your PC to compare & test).

1 In FF click your menu (hamburger) button and go to settings.
2 In the general panel look for network settings and click the settings button.
3 Go to Enable DNS over HTTPS checkbox and uncheck, if checked.
4 Click ok to confirm the settings change.

This should put you back on your PC's configured DNS servers (or your provider's DNS servers if your PC is just getting them via DHCP from your internet modem/network device)

Restart Firefox and try browsing to MFC again and another well-known site or two to check the loading behaviour.

If the MFC loading issue resolves and the site loads ok, then appears that the provider you had selected with DoH is having issues, or could be blocking potentially flagged content. Thus, would recommend you pick a different provider in the FF settings if you want to continue using DoH and turn it back on to try again.

If you're seeing timeouts or loading failures for many sites, not just MFC, try changing your DNS servers manually to another well-known public provider (Open, Google, Quad, CF, etc.) to see if that makes any difference.

Hope that helps. Good luck.

Hi! I have a question regarding ITEM #1765828

Basically, the CD includes a bunch of 'Clear illustration Character Sheets' (26 in total) which can be placed over the CD to change the look and it's also advertised as being possible to use as a clear poster. I was wondering if I should make separate entries for these sheets and mark them as 'bundled with' the cd or if I should just leave it as is. ( Here is the website where you can see what I'm talking about: beinggiza.com/f...)

Thank you very much in advance! ^v^
