You are looking at the old forums. The new forums haven’t reached the x5 section yet

Can you let me know what version your are on. If you tap on your profile on the top right and then scroll all the way down you can see

Ok darn, I just put up for approval a new version 7.0.8 that *maybe* will fix the problem. But TBH I’m not sure why its happening to some and not others.

I’m hoping it gets approved tomorrow, if so can you try it out and see if it helps the situation or if its the same and let me know?

Ya I’ll try to check on it periodically. I will be traveling tomorrow but I’ll try to remember before going to bed.

Ok no worries, if it happens to cross your plate. Also curious what is your typical usage, read some forums and threads? Use the garage, use PMs or other parts typically? If you notice any pattern like for example it always happens after you read a notification, etc.. would be very helpful too

I mainly just read threads, maybe respond to a few. I’m not sure what triggers it. Last night I did just that. Opened the app this morning and was logged out. I usually pop in and out of the app a couple times a day. I do have a bad habit of closing all my background apps, but I’ve also done that numerous times today and not been logged out yet. We’ll see if it’s like a nightly refresh thing or something, maybe I’ll be logged out when I open it up in the morning.

Yes if it happens again tommorow morning let me know, atleast that way I know it has something to do with background activity making it happen. That would be a massive clue. If it doesn’t happen then that’s a good sign since really it wa expected to happen one time with the most recent update but more then one time is for sure not right

I have everything working with my code to post and reply to either the vBulletin site or the beta. But I'm noticing that the beta site will not show very large posts. Take a look at the second post in this test thread: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/beta/show...php?p=32677698

If you look at the same content on the current site it appears fine: https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=32677698

The vBulletin site limited posts to 100k characters, so that is my ceiling. For the content to appear on the beta I have to drop that down to around 26k characters of HTML before I convert it to JSON or you get nothing to display.

Let me know what you think - The post is being saved regardless of whether I send it to the beta or the current site, so I don't know if it is purely a rendering problem on the beta or if you are synchronizing two different storage formats on the back and have different limits. Most of the existing service bulletin sticky threads I maintain have a massive second post as it is a reverse chrono digest (e.g. https://g45.bimmerpost.com/beta/show...php?p=32306476 shows the same issue). Not sure if there are many other posts that will hit this "new" limit, but hoping those won't disappear on people.

No these bug reports are incredibly helpful, keep em coming...!

As for that second post, yes that is bizarre, im going to look into this more deeply and get it fixed. Luckily, the data is there, ill see why its crapping out with super long posts. I do have a text limit set for the beta site and that might be the problem. was that last super long edit submitted using the vb or beta site?

It seems the content is all there its just not outputting correctly, but I want to make sure

apptest - the OP of my F97 X3M wheel and tire thread ( https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showt...weights/page/1 ) which contains the extensive list I've been gathering of all Members' combinations is empty. And when I attempt to 'Quote' it nothing happens, and when I push 'Edit' to see if data is even there nothing shows. I am hoping this is just a character limit and that all of the data hasn't been lost? Really, really hoping...

Also, 'notifications' bell shows '6' but when pushed there aren't any notifications for me.
