Your mama may have had eyes in the back of her head, but our admin team just can't see everything at once. It takes a village to make sure TVTropes is running the way it should, so when it comes to spotting tech snafus, dreaming up a better digital mousetrap, or just diagnosing plain old asshattery, the quicker you let us know something's up, the quicker we can address it. See a bug? Point to it and we'll squash it. Have idea for a new feature? Post in the Tech Wishlist.
NOTE: Do not post duplicate bug queries, please check existing queries to see if your issue has already been reported and then comment on it.

closed New Trope Repair Shop/Image Pickin' threads don't display anymore
They just show up as blank threads.
closed Wide mode is ever so slightly too wide.
Wide mode touches the left and right edges of the screen, instead of having a bit of padding like before. This means that my scrollbar covers a slight amount of the content. Please can you pad the sides of the site elements (ie the page boxes, and the iconography in the top bar)?
closed "Jumping the Shark" in Night Vision
The page image for Jumping the Shark looks... really screwed up in Night Vision. All of the white grid squares become white and gray triangles. If the words don't make sense, the pre-1.3 version is over here for comparison.
closed Exclamation point headers
The Two Exclamation point header (!!Text) lost the blue bar the one exclamation point and two exclamation point headers have
closed ATT and others default to "Date Descending"
Ask The Tropers, Trope Finder, and similar pages (including this one) now default their sorting to "Date Descending", which is largely useless as it shows posts from 2010. One must manually toggle "Recent Activity" in the Sort dropdown menu every time to return the page to its pre-redesign functionality.
closed Sticky website header loses its contents when I scroll down
At the top of the page, it has the links " Tropes Media Indexes Forums "
When I scroll down, only the two random buttons remain!
closed YMMV Pages now show the YMMV bullet on them.
The bullet that normally shows up when a YMMV Trope is posted to the main page. It's really distracting, so I figured I should bring this up as soon as possible.
closed Trivia trope mislabeled as YMMV
On this page: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Trivia/ScootertrixTheAbridged
The Talking To Himself entry has been flagged YMMV, but Talking To Himself is a Trivia trope.
closed YMMV is Horribly Borked
I'm looking on YMMV pages, and most of the tropes are marked with the YMMV scale that denotes "Move this to a YMMV page".
I think the problem here is pretty clear.
closed YMMV Pages
On YMMV pages, every entry has the little scales picture in place of a bullet point, and hovering the cursor over any example brings up the "This example contains a YMMV entry" thing. This makes sense on the main pages where it's supposed to remind people to move those entries to the YMMV pages, but I'm pretty sure that shouldn't be showing up on YMMV pages themselves.
workingShrunken embedded images when using table formatting in the forums
As can be seen on this page, images that are embedded in a table cell show up as tiny if the next cell has more than one line of text. If the next cell has one line of text or less then the image shows up as its proper size.
closedImage Uploader gives wrong image.
I tried to upload an image, but after it's been complete I get a completely different image.
closed Edit posts.
Here, on ATT, etc. I can only edit my replies to posts, there's no button on the original post.
Also, could the Edit Post button be slightly bigger, please?
closed Issue with avatar sharing
In the profile, avatar sharing is always disabled, and cannot be activated properly. Attempting to do so and then saving the changes does nothing.
closed Stretched Avatars
It seems avatars that aren't exactly the right size become stretched and deformed.
closed Can't turn on 'Accept Shared Avatars'
When I go to Viewing Options on my profile and turn on 'Accept Shared Avatars', it resets back to being off after I hit Save. The other options can turn on and off just fine, it's only this one that's a problem.
I've tried to start a thread for Fan Disservice/Anime in the Image Pickin' forum, but both times, the OP has ended up being invisible and the thread's been broken. Any idea what's going on there?
