New WSO LIVE - Report Bugs PLEASE
Ok, so we managed to upgrade the site from Drupal 7-> Drupal 8. Shout out to my kick-ass development team.
This will help us bring the site into the next decade with a more modern back-end infrastructure (even though now it seems more like a nuisance with some bugs)...
So far, we know we have:
- Some social 1 click login issues
- @mentions look broken
Let us hear what else is broken for you please since we are a small team.
Thanks!
Patrick
So far so good.
look what is back!
Does the Silver Banana Trophy still exist?
Search isn't working properly. Only showing posts before 2013 on my end.
Thank you - still indexing, thanks for the heads up though. Something blocking it and we're on it!
Same. A lot of posts gone missing.
they'll all be back by early next week...
Besides the upgrade from Drupal 7 to Drupal 8 , did you guys make any other changes?
Also, what changes/features do you intend on adding in the near future?
There were some minor UI changes you may notice like the default monkey icon is now our new logo in grey, the anonymous posters have a larger Industry color icon for easier identification. Stuff like that. Near future a lot more UI improvements including main navigation, home page, etc... a lot more course announcements coming!
Saw the delete PM option - lovely add ! Well done Patrick & team
when you hover over a post on one of the forums, the text is blurry whereas it used to be clear
thanks Patrick, I'm sure this wasn't easy
Thanks, you mean when you hover over and see the black text giving you a preview of the text in the thread? that's weird, can you give me more info on your setup? browser, etc and/or snap a screenshot so I can show the devs? Thank you!
this still happening for you?
Hi thebrofessor - I'm still not sure I understood this bug. can you please explain or let me know if it's ok now? Thanks man
hey patrick, seems to work now, thanks
Why is this under investment banking forum? Plz fix thx

fair, fair - touche
Some of posts look cut in half (not showing the whole post).
added: I’ll pm you.
can you be more specific here. browser/mobile/app? possible to share screenshot?
I can't access my direct messages.
You mean your private messages? Anyone else?
how about now? PMs/DMs should be working now...
Update:
1. still some odd behavior here on user profile pages... we'll try to hammer this out this week
2. is this for PMs?
3. Fixed
4. Thanks - although the new editor introduced a huge slew of bugs including some spacing ones in OP/comments we're still working through...
The good news is the site should be about ~3x faster today given some performance changes we just did...
I was referring to below for point #3. Previously it showed the comment itself and not the thread topic, and we could see how many SBs we got for each comment:
When I type anything in the search bar, the results are capped up to 2013
yes, search has not fully indexed the site, we're on it.
My silver bananas went from something like 770 to 229. @WallStreetOasis.com can something be done about that?
looking into this, thanks for the heads up
Also didn't get a notification bell icon on the top bar when you replied to this comment, and also can't seem to edit my comments even though it shows the edit button. Thanks for updating the website and for the hard work!
SB count should be fixed now!
Nice! Can't begin to image what a nightmare this was, especially with the massive amount of content you have.
I used to stay logged in the site when I accessed from my laptop. Now I gave to login every time I access it. Not a big deal, just a change that I noticed.
Same
How about now?
like if you leave and come back in a few hrs it's logging you out? or you were logged out today when we made the migration? expected that everyone would get logged out today....
As soon as I close the page and come back it logs me out. Also brings me to my profile each time I log in rather than the front page
Same on iPhone.
Also just noticed while typing this that my screen goes white (like there’s a white box over the comment field) when typing and I can only see the preview after scrolling down or hitting done.
is this still an issue for you?
this should be better now. please let me know if not!
Is this working for you now?
Is the notification bell gone forever? Or is there another way I can get notifications?
no, we're on it.
working now?
Brower isn't remembering me, have to login every time I re-enter after closing the browser
Working now?
Have a question mark next to name. Supposed to be S&T.
Not sure if it's something that only I see or not.
It's a bug, I'll add to list...we'll get it worked out but it may be a few weeks with a lot of high priority ones in line :-)
The no response notifications thing is happening to me too
Thanks - this is next highest priority on list once we get some other things knocked out!
I'm still having this problem. I posted anon.
Could just be a me problem, but the link sent to reset my password just leads to an Access Denied page.
That happened to me as well. Actually, I didn't get any like at all when I tried to reset my password. I ended up having to try every password I could think of and eventually got in.
this is still a known bug and dev team is testing heavily...it's inconsstent so hard to replicate and chase down but we will
Is the iPhone app supposed to be not working? Or is that a bug
Hi, can you be more specific? Did you download the latest update when prompted? Thank you! specifics help dev team a lot!
is the iphone app working for you now?
Many of these bugs seem like pranks. I think we should keep the ? for S&T ;)
ha, promise they are not...
By the way, Chrome on my laptop now shows me that I can install the Wall Street Oasis app. I did that and now I have WSO installed on my laptop. That's neat. What exactly is the purpose of that? Also, the app has a blue bird with glasses as logo.
Page scrolling with the keyboard seems a bit hampered. When I hold the arrow it suddenly stops scrolling then it scrolls a lot faster.
on the to do list to check but we have a list of much more urgent cards, so likely a few weeks before we can tackle this...
the scroll should be MUCH better now (along with speed)
I stopped getting notifications for new comments in some of the threads I follow.
Thanks - this is high priority on the list...hoping tomorrow we can attack it after clearing some others
Notifications just updated today:
for now, these should be working to your PMs (not email yet):
- SM/MS on your post/comment
- when mentioned you in comment
- when mentioned you in comment and comment author use alt identity
- when someone reply on your comment
- when someone reply on your comment and use alt identity
more fixes coming soon!
Richard's posts are still showing up unfortunately, pls fix
LMS is not updating course completion %s on the LMS homepage.
Thanks, added to the list!
this should be fixed now. please let me know if not. thank you
Cannot embed a URL into a word anymore like I used to love to do. Don't know if it needs to be fixed or it was desired.
This is embedding a url on a work?
I think you just need to highlight the text/word and click the little link icon above the body.... don't see that?
Company salaries only show categories and display n/a for the other ones
added to list. ETA on fix = end of next week.
same issue for the interview sections as well. thank you
Unable to access my PMs. Gives a HTTP Error 500.
We're on it, thank you
It should work for you now, could you check?
Works perfectly, thanks!
This is a test comment from the android mobile app
I see all my courses 3 times again (I had this problem again).
Could you please fix it?
Is this on /courses at the top box showing your courses?
When I open the dropdown list next to my user name and click My Courses, I see over 15 course.
3 times LBO
3 times M&A
.....
I hope this is helpful.
can't see anything when I check my feed (of posters that I follow). just blank
This was put off to the side since it's a very infrequently used feature by most members...if there is enough clamoring to get My Feed back we can make it happen, just may take us ~3-4 weeks before we are out from under this mountain of bugs...
thats sort of surprising but thanks for replying (notification works!). I lost the list of users i followed so would be nice to have at least those back.
The little notification bell button no longer displays that little drop down of recent SBs and Replies when i click, rather it directs to notification page. Is that feature retired?
yes, really just a performance decision....however, we will be showing new notification count there again soon so you know when there are new messages/notices
I don't get any type of notification anymore. No replies, no SB nor MS
Avatar icons/pictures look distorted - squeezed to look more narrow than they are.
weird, i dont see this. this on site or app? mobiel or desktop? browser and have you refreshed or can you send a screenshot? thank you!
still an issue for you?
Yep it is, didn't see your initial comment. I cleared my cache, etc., even re-uploaded my avatar image twice (regular and cropped into a circle) and it's still happening.
Occurs on desktop (Chrome), mobile (Chrome), and the app. All look the same.
I've taken screenshots here. I've also included the 2 images of what my avatar should look like (cropped and un-cropped).
Thanks!
Can't subscribe to discussion topics to receive notifications and the topics aren't sorted by most recent (is it just me having this issue?)
this will be back by early next week at the latest...
this is pushcrew and we're waiting on an update from their support to get it functional again. should be live before EOD tomorrow (top priority with now..)
Not getting notifications, and the whole site seems to be running pretty slowly.
both performance improvements and notifications high on priority list...expect things to improve next week. thank you for your patience!
Notifications just updated today:

more fixes coming soon including performance, mobile site posting and scroll improvements!
performance better for you?
Have seen several issues, especially in mobile
- on mobile, probably the worst one is that where there should be a comment, there will be an advertisement instead. So two people may be discussing something and replying to eachother, but I miss out on what one of them says because an ad has taken its place. reached out to support but still doesn't appear to be fixed
- on mobile, sometimes I'll click a link to something that I guess isn't available for mobile (company interview insight, job posting, essentially anything that's not a thread) and I'll get an error message and will have to log back in which is super annoying
- on mobile, if I click into a thread with like 150 comments spread across two pages, I only see the yellow boxes showing what comments are new on page one, when i click the next page or page after there are no more yellow comments and it's not easily to tell which I've read / which I haven't
Think these are the major ones... but if I remember anymore will let you know
Also having some issues with the mobile app and am having trouble moving between pages.
commenting cleaned up a bit on mobile but we didn't have the time to smooth out everything there yet...thank you for your patience and reporting issues!
Certain threads aren’t actually quoting, for me they are showing (/quote text is verbatim) /quote “Thing quoted” /quote “Response to quote”
I also get quotes and "@" in the middle of people's job descriptions
can you give me an example please - helps us a lot!
I don’t know if this is intentional, but on the app, the IB Course advert will completely replace a random post on a thread. You can’t see the post it replaces at all, and it’s really annoying because if someone made a reply to that post, you’ve lost all the context.
no, not intentional....we're looking into it. Thank you (and others) for the heads up!
fixed.
social 1 click login on mobile app shows error
Thanks. iOS or Android? FB/Google/ what social?
thank you
this working now?
Not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but Swagon appears to be gone post the latest update.
Note: this appears to be an issue both on the webpage and mobile
https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/why-does-the-functionality-of-th…
The signature in one's profile appears for one second and then disappears.
thanks, added
Site seems much slower to load pages and scroll through comments
thanks, we are investigating/improving performance and scroll issues (highlighted above)
This is pretty minor but on some comments the text seems to be formatted differently from others, the font seems darker and maybe has smaller spaces than other posts.
thanks, can you send screenshot or example?
Also, for DMs Idk if this is a bug or what, but before the upgrade, the chat was divided into multiple pages. Now, its one giant page, which can be a bit irritating because I have to scroll all the way down (for people I speak to a lot).
yeah, not a bug - completely different animal, but we can make a UI improvement probably to anchor it to the latest messages instead of forcing user to scroll... wasn't an option for us to stick with threaded messages on PM. there was no update from D7 -> D8 for the PM module.
This is a test comment
Commas are missing from the banana score on comments
lmao, my man managed to find the most minor thing in history. i guarantee this will be at the bottom of their priority list, although i absolutely love the attention to detail
pls fixes don't fix themselves!
I think you should sticky this on the top of each forum rather than just IB.
we're already drowning and have about 5 critical bugs, 20 high priority and about 130 others... so I think we're good ;)
Things are getting better but performance, scrolling is still a big problem -- some members still having issues with login/social login, subscriptions for threads still not live (tomorrow hopefully), resetting pw, saving new pw or any update to profile (fixed today), company database filtering issues, UX/UI issues across desktop, mobile site and app... then we have a huge backlog of other issues that members can't see like how our system works in the back end support for our students in the LMS. support team having to do more manual stuff as some of the automated tie ins with zendesk broke.
varnish caching/warm up script for logged out users is apparently not working either so the list of things to fix is enormous... we knew this was coming, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it has been worse than expected.
All of these are not going to get fixed overnight and some of them are actually very tough because they aren't easy to replicate (the caching layers alone on the site are very complex to try and keep performance snappy)...but I do know we'll keep pushing and that every week there will be less and less issues.
This was BY FAR the biggest migration we have done ever in our 14 years (took over 9 months) and it was a nightmare....but I believe it will pay dividends in 2021-2025 as we are able to introduce new features on a much more modern platform.
Thanks,
Patrick
App needs some work imo - whenever I find a thread online it’ll direct me to the app only for it to lose the thread once the app starts up. The app also crashes quite a bit
this should be fixed now...please let me know if not! also, if you can share what you are doing when you have a crash that would be immensely helpful so we can try to recreate it... also, we are bringing on board a full-time QA person to help us spot all these bugs faster!
Also, would it be possible to have a feature where we can access our courses on mobile? Bought the IB interview prep guide and can't access through mobile (which I prefer to use) - just an idea
Why can't we send pm/dms on the app?
That was one of the reasons why we were doing this update, it was a huge pain for adding the new features to the app.
We didn't have the messages, company db and many more things which we can add now.
I think the app is going to get a lot of new updates after we deal with the all bugs posted here.
Keep on getting logged out and search results are a little inaccurate
you're getting logged out still? might look logged out when you run a search because there is a caching issue in upper right block when you search and we're working on getting the settings back on solr. thanks
Lot of posts about the search function already, I would add that the tagging feature in posts could use some improvement as well. I think maybe just cleaning up the tags would go a long way.
The Quote function seems hit or miss. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. (Chrome)
Thanks...we are looking at our commenting system in general and may use different ones depending on if it's mobile site vs desktop, etc... this new one / ck editor has introduced a lot of issues including (i think) scroll bug that people have mentioned above. We're on it. Thanks for the patience
Something else that I’ve just noticed is several of my comments have gotten SBs and replies over the past few days and I haven’t received any emails stating the notification
Notifications just updated today:
for now, these should be working to your PMs (not email yet):
- SM/MS on your post/comment

I can’t login to my regular account on my phone. quite literally had to make a new temporary account....
Did you try reseting the password here: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/user/password ?
Or you were using the social networks for login and it stopped to work now?
When I visit the profiles of other users, I am no longer able to sort their comments by # of SB's, date posted, etc.
That's on our list, thanks
Harder to write from the phone, dont know the reason but its true that I sometimes cant read what I am writing and its annoying af (it gets hidden by the keyboard)
Thanks, mobile editor is one of our top priorities now.
BTW, you are talking about the mobile version of the site, not the mobile app, right?
Also, is it iOS or Android?
I got a grand total of ZERO notifications. Nothing for replies, MS or SB.
That's our top #1 priority, thanks.
Will a new update also include notifications in the mobile app? It'd be great

Not able to login on iPhone app after update, through Facebook
this should be fixed now. working?
working now?
The new comments functionality isn’t working. Now threads are just accumulating comments
this working now for you?
When I click on a notification it usually brings me to the thread but logs me out so I can't see every comment. I have to log back in and then manually find the thread.
That's about the mobile app, not the mobile web version, right?
That's correct. This is on the app on my phone.
Can't search for users by username anymore
on the list to get this added back, but it's a lower priority than some of the other more critical bugs listed here. we'll get it, I promise!
Not seeing notification option nor receiving notifications after creation of threads/posts
Thanks for the report, we are working on this.
Doing our best to get it fixed as soon as possible.
The most of the notifications functionality should be back tomorrow.

Why do comments get covered up by ads? I can't even see some of my own comments or those who reply to me.
