Hey Iceman,

I was trying to add gear to my gallery and there are some errors in the javascript once the page loads which prevents "HT gear in image" drop down not to function correctly and expose the manufacturer and model drop downs as well as the Add button.

I'm going to ramble now and pretend I know something I probably don't...

I've tested in Mozilla Firefox 3.6.17 and 4.0.1, Google Chrome 11.0.696.68, and MS Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 with the same result.

Looks like the javascript is being embedded instead of being called. That being said I see two sets of script tags. The one before the <html> tag produces the error "$ is no defined" pointing to Line 2 of the page post-loading:

Code:

$(document).ready(function(){
  function updateDisplayOrder(htid, id, order)
   {

... etc ...

Which causes the functions within not to work. Looks like those functions are part of the tagging gear process among other things.

The second set of script tags, after the shortcut icon link, what looks like the declaration of $ among other things:

Code:

(function(w){var d=w.document;p={r:[],ready:function(f){p.r.push(f)},readyevent:function(e){while(p.r.length)p.r.shift()(e)},l:[],load:function(f){p.l.push(f)},loadevent:function(e){p.readyevent(e);while(p.l.length)p.l.shift()(e)}};d.addEventListener?(d.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded",p.readyevent,!1),w.addEventListener("load",p.loadevent,!1)):d.attachEvent&&(d.write('<script defer src="//:" onreadystatechange="if(readyState==\'complete\')p.readyevent(event)"><\/script>'),w.attachEvent("onload",p.loadevent));$=function(){return p}})(window);

If that is the case, that could be causing the issue and perhaps that first set of javascript functions should be placed after or within the second set of script tags somewhere after that 2nd code snippet?

My javascript is REALLY rusty and I don't know jack about jQuery, so I'm probably totally wrong. Just thought I'd troubleshoot a bit before I asked you about it, haha.

...end rambling

Is anyone working this issue? It is still broken for me. (I can't add gear to my HT gallery.)

Thanks!

I've tried "Adding Gear" to my home theater gallery and am unable to do so. By clicking Add Gear and then selecting HDTV (for instance) nothing else happens. I've tried doing this in both Google Chrome and Firefox both to no avail. I was able to do this in the past. Please help...

Wow... thanks a lot for reporting this, can't believe no one hasn't reported it since it has been broken since May 10

Thank you very much!

Thanks for the fix, iceman

I actually reported it here:

Question, I added True Blood Season 3 (Target Signature Edition) to the database. There are 3 different versions but all three are the same besides different artwork. I added one of them already and was wondering if I would be able to add the other 2 without conflict since their basically the same thing besides different cover art.

I ask because I won't be able to load the cover art until after it gets approved and added to the database.

Yeah just post all 3 pics of the Target Editions and they should add it. I'm surprised no one added it already.

I'm curious Cruz, I specifically remember jw did not want duplicates of BDs in the database if a slip or a small trinket was the only difference. Has this now changed? There are numerous differences and variances with BDs out there, especially the gold slipped Academy BDs and Sony Essentials, just as an example.

Deciazulado · 06-03-2011, 02:01 AM

We could put the other two at the back cover slot

Hey Deci and iceman, perhaps a new link underneath the photo such as "Alternate covers" so it's under one listing though members can see what other slips/cover art are available.

I think if the only difference is cover art, then this is a great idea.

Looking for how to add a bookshelf speaker. ON the first page of this thread, I see links only for:
Center
Floor Standing
Surround Speakers
Subwoofers
Speaker Systems

Edit: I was able to submit a bookshelf speaker by opening the page for an existing one and then clicking the Suggest a new speaker link. Is there an easier way?

4K2K · 06-06-2011, 01:49 AM

If I go to a movie that is released today (6th June 2011), in the 'movie' section it says "June 6, 2011 (1 Day)". But 6th June isn't 1 day away, it's today. PS: I'm on UK time.

abintra · 06-09-2011, 10:05 AM

Doing a title search for Le Cercle Rouge is turning up no results but searching for Cercle Rouge is bringing up all the results as expected.

At first I thought it was due to one of the releases not having 'Le' in the title prefix field but that has been fixed. Shouldn't searching for Le Cercle Rouge bring up results?

Thanks.

A couple of questions about contributing guidelines.

Is there a FAQ or guidelines one can refer to in order to know how information should be contributed to ensure accuracy (don't want to take up editors time contributing things that aren't supposed to or not as desired)?

Regarding titles. Should the movie title used be the title on the front cover or do you prefer the original language title be used for uniformity?

My reason for asking this is because, though it is difficult to ascertain what is declined and/or for what reasons, a couple of titles appear to be inaccurate but changes seem to get declined. I'm afraid to re-submit them multiple times as I'm not entirely sure if they were declined, overlooked, are already as desired or something else.

Some examples..

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Le-mepris-Blu-ray/8630/ (cover lists title as Contempt (Le mépris) but is currently shown on site the other way around).

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-P...Blu-ray/25331/ (cover lists title as Mar em Fúria (The Perfect Storm) but is currently shown on site the other way around).

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-Debt-Blu-ray/25369/ (cover lists title as L'affaire Rachel Singer (The Debt) but is currently shown on site the other way around).

Should those reflect the cover art title or each is correct as is?

And because I'm sure it isn't said nearly enough, thank you to all those behind the scenes that volunteer their time going through all of those submissions and contributing all the data.

The Guidelines for titles are simple.
All titles should use US english form when available.

Exceptions: (Example)
in France
Le mépris (Contempt)

It's possible that our countries database got many titles with wrong form.

they will show up, in our quick search, even in the wrong form.

Thanks for every submissions

Apologies for the follow-up.

Given that example, does that mean the English title should be used for all releases, no matter what the actual title is on the localized release, unless the original title differs and corresponds to that countries release (eg. Le mépris being a French originating film so retain its original title for the French release but use Contempt for every other one no matter what it is called on that countries release itself)?

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Die-V...-Blu-ray/6148/

Is the German release, not to focus specifically on one title, since I'm curious in general, but as an example, listed correctly as is or do you desire for it to be listed as 'Contempt' contrary to the actual release title?
