Questions about Discourse and its functions

I’m trying to make a post with multiple threads which should be possible but i’m getting this error

An error occurred: When creating multiple polls, include unique names by adding name=example to your [poll] tags.

I try to add the name=example thing to the poll syntax but it doesn’t seem to work. Does someone has any idea of what I’m doing wrong?

edit: found a solution by adding the polls manually rather than copy and pasting and changing the values

edit 2: okay so figured out that the name has to be at the beginning and they get automatically named “poll#”

basically like this

[poll name=poll2 type=regular results=always public=true chartType=bar]

Yay finally able to access the forums on 5g data. I feel like I’ve checked pretty recently within the past week and it didn’t work, but hopefully the issue is resolved now.

Nope nevermind went back to not loading on 5g today

Meanwhile, it wasn’t working for me the day of your original post, but did work the next day…

Just a heads up. It looks like users on older browsers and phones (like me) won’t be able to contribute soon

Lol, discuss old and obscure games, but only on a new iPhone.

I have been a Patron since some years now but I never got that forum flair. I assumed it was automatic if you had the same email address registered both there and here, so tonight I finally added my “other” email address here as a secondary email and verified it with Discourse. Still no flair, is this not how it works? I just want to be a star-bellied sneech.

I checked your account here on the forum and it’s not registering you as a Patreon member. The primary email address needs to be the same as the Patreon one otherwise it won’t register, which from what you’ve said it’s the secondary email address which is the Patreon one. The secondary email isn’t used for anything outside of a back up verification process for your account.

Can you change your primary email to match your patreon one please? Then if it’s still causing problems and you are flairless, we can look further into it.

oh, without changing which email was primary, it seems to be working as of this morning. Thanks!

My pleasure - glad to help with the good old “let’s try something and before it is done it works” school of fixing problems.

Enjoy your flair.

Idk if it’s my device or internet connection but I can’t read @Bonsai ‘s post in Music - The Topic! without the page force reloading. I guess that means I can’t read any other post in the thread either. I’ll try again in a few hours but wanted to know if others have the same experience.
