As you can see on the left my name is just plain weird. i never knew that it would be so hard logging in whith such a name. i have to copy paste and everything now into the boxes. so what can i do? is there a way to solve it?

Mcswain27,
I just checked again - and Delphy didn't break these links They're still working.
When you choose Featured Downloads the next stuff to choose from (Objects, Lots etc.) are the featured ones.

copy paste, eh VêRtÏgØ :D
Did you try to mark "remember me"? When your cookies work correctly and you don't logg of you should automatically stay logged in.
Well, maybe Delphy can help you to change your name into a simpler typing (How do you pronounce it correctly?)
And maybe you could delete the 2nd of your double posts?

These are exclellent changes, i guess thats why MTS2 is the best sims 2 site out there :D

McSwain,

Are you talking about the link that goes to featured.php? If so, that hasn't changed in this update.

Vertigo,

I see no issues with clicking on your name to get to your profile - the site correctly encodes the special characters as it should.

Ehm, what's this? Was playing with the name vs. number and for some users, also user no. 1 I got this when trying to use the old number-selection. Names work. Are numbers turned off for some members now?

Delphy, did you quit? :D

Khaibit, the number URL is a little different.

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=1

http://www.modthesims2.com/member/Delphy

http://www.modthesims2.com/creator/Delphy <-- it works now! yay!

I didn't enter the URLs manually but via clicking the member in postings, sometimes they work with numbers still, sometimes appeared names. The same happened when clicking Papa Smurfmenor: in a thread, talking he was displayed in his profile with his old number, should be 4406 - now only his name appears... (http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=4406 now http://www.modthesims2.com/member/Numenor) and via creator info in one of his downloads his name was displayed - and everything works fine.
Trying your link to No 1 and then clicking "View My Forum Profile" doesn't work, Delphy doesn't exist as a number anymore.
Either it is another Opera trouble or it is a linking trouble from "viewing member" to "viewing profile" - clearer now?
I am addlepated but not completely dumb so I can keep seperated the different ways the URLs work :D

Edit: Your link works as your name is displayed, cannot check it with your number... don't know my own neither or numbers from other creators but I fiddled around and creators profiles (either if they appear as /member/ or as /creator/ - as long as something is available for download it doesn't work) can't be displayed via the number-URL for me. So what's this?

I think that is cool.

See you

Ohh yes okay I see what you mean, Khaibit. If you go to a Featured Creator page via the number URL - which is the URL you get using search or browsing the members list - the "View My Forum Profile" link is broken. Examples:

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=1

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=13790

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=4407

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=193792

http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=117050

Actually I get the same thing. I just clicked on Featured Items from the main download page. It took me to a menu area and when I clicked on Sims, there were all the sims people had made sorted by date uploaded. The link says featured.php, but it doesn't seem to go to just featured anymore.

Am I just looking at the wrong area?

Edit: This is where clicking on featured Items takes me:
http://www.modthesims2.com/forumdisplay.php?f=38

At least it isn't caused by Opera this time :D
Didn't take care of the fact that I tried it with featured creators only - clicked in several threads several names

Now that you know what I mean I guess Delphy should be able to understand you at least - in cases like this, noticing a confusing "happening", trying to find words in English to describe what I mean, which means concentrating on language in first place and not getting lost in checking the "happening" itself on my own though I'm getting distracted by "English" is bloody difficult to me! *feeling helpless, once more*
I didn't even realized that I mixed 4406 and 4407 up - and the 4407 is one of the 2 numbers I made it to remember (the other is 23182, Nouk) ... ok, maybe I'm just too dumb to use this forum or my English is just too bad, maybe both...

Thank you, Fansee, that you took the time to fiddle out what I mean and made it clearer

Paleoanth,
at least this works fine for me so in case you clicked right (I suppose ) this "error" doesn't happen all the time...

I have problem to see *Matheus* profile... sorry
What about the system characters : /\?...

This worked for me too! *feels so successful* :D
Patul, did you try http://www.modthesims2.com/member/Matheus

It is not the good one !
He has a new uploaded lot, if you want to make some tests : http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=209307
and the link in the main dwld page is also weird.

Great... *feels successless again*
I didn't think you mean the "**" included
This time it worked with number only, the name was not found on this server.

This one worked for me http://www.modthesims2.com/member.php?u=192487

BTW, why do you think the other one is a bad one? :D

FYI-

The featured items link works for me now! Excellent.

Okay the people with other funky characters should work now too

Also, see the first post for an update.

Wonderful update, but I just came across something very odd...

Every thread I see seems to be created by one person - V1ND1CARE - but when you click on the actual thread its started by someone else - in the case of the first item shown in the image - the Creator is listed as kg4bet on the actual download page.

Already fixed GLachaille

thank you, I really like it.

I can't access the Featured section any more. Every time I click the 'More Featured Items' link, it redirects me to the root Downloads forum. Is this a bug or the intended result??

ETA: No matter where I navigate from, the .../featured.php link always redirects me here: http://www.modthesims2.com/forumdisplay.php?f=38

The version 1.1.8 on the Q-
Expresss insaller does not work. When i click on the orange Q to download something, my q-express program wont take the download. At the bottom of the program it says "cannot open http://......................." Please Help this is really bugging me big time

Nice changes. Thanks, Delphy!
Has anyone else noticed this? As far as I've been able to tell, when viewing profiles, it appears everyone now shows as "offline."
Even I currently appear as offline, yet I am clearly here, typing away! <tap, tap, tap, click-click.>
I may not be "normal," but I haven't chosen to be invisible.
Maybe a glitch related to the recent changes...?

karen,

Thats been like that for a good couple months now, and is entirely deliberate.

phoenix,

Please check if you have "Do not use Core Pages" ticked in your User Options.

osikowim,

This is not the Q-Xpress support forum - please post over there. (http://www.q-xpressinstaller.com)

Regards
Delphy

Very nice. I have always hated having to scroll and click through numerous pages to get to the creator I want. Now I can just remember that it was a cute outfit by SimFashionista or something, and go straight to it!! Cool beans.
