They keep saying in the forum that it was beta tested and none of these issues came up. Apparently all the problems have taken them by surprise.Why do you suppose they did a live launch of the site before they had done any beta testing/bug checks and before half the features were ready to be deployed?
Definitely that. But also they only did the most minimal confirmation that things worked technically, not usefully. Like I can send a message and the other person receives it, but not if it’s understandable, can be found on the list, I can know who I sent to, etc. And the apostrophe issue is DB management 101. You need to escape them when working with SQL. That’s really basic code stuff (and quickly caught if you are doing real testing. )They keep saying in the forum that it was beta tested and none of these issues came up.

My only guess is that the testers weren't actual users/pin traders, so they didn't know what was missing.
Okay.... this..... is.... ArghThe grail feature is live with two levels! One thumb up or two thumbs up. And it remembered what I had marked as grails before the change over! Yay!
It did that to me. But then after I logged out and logged back in, it showed that my trade assist was on.I finally got my page back. Part of my problem was that answers to my emails were getting sent back as spam. Not their fault. Now, did anyone get trade assist back? I went to my profile and each time I check the box, it brings me back to the same page.
Thanks for the info. I tried it after your post, but it didn't work for me. I guess I'll logout for a while and see if that helps.It did that to me. But then after I logged out and logged back in, it showed that my trade assist was on.
The full accounts compare feature still is gone (from what I can tell.) But for any specific pin I 'want' or 'trade' if I am in the specific pin listing, the trade assist for that pin works. The visuals on the "who has this pin" or "who is trading this pin" page are not good. It is difficult to see, but clicking on the link on the pin listing will give you any users you match with to trade or gain your pin.Thanks for the info. I tried it after your post, but it didn't work for me. I guess I'll logout for a while and see if that helps.
When I logged in this afternoon, the trade assist was there. Thank you all for your help.Thanks for the info. I tried it after your post, but it didn't work for me. I guess I'll logout for a while and see if that helps.

You were SO wise.I sent out two requests today, we'll see how it goes.
I only started exploring the new site this week, so missed out on a lot of the headaches...
I still haven't looked at the new site. I'm following its progress via this thread to determine the ... shall we say? ... optimal time to check it out and reactivate my account. At this point, I figure that I probably have to reenter ALL of my owns, wants, and trades, which is fine - it has been (without exaggeration) years since I've updated my Pin Pics account and it's so laughably out of date, it's likely more efficient to just start over than attempt to edit it. I just would rather be able to do it without a virtual can of Raid for the bugs you keep finding and the resulting headaches that follow.I sent out two requests today, we'll see how it goes.
