Curlie currently suffers from two importantish bugs: The Editor feedback system is down - this also means that the email verification doesn't work and blocks us from opening new accounts. For Editor Applications, as a workaround, we can contact you via ordinary email to ensure it was really you who applied. For Public Accounts (Personal Pages) the system is entirely automated. We can't even see these applications, so no workaround is possible. Our second problem is our servers aren't stable, and have a tendency to throw 504 errors (time-out) . If you get a white page with 504 marked on it, simply refresh the page until ther…

How do I prevent the Curlie edit URL screen from replacing spaces in URLs with + characters? This modification of the URL produces an undesirable result in the linked page. Is it possible to force the screen to accept the URL as I have entered it?

Reproduction: Open [iCODE]curlie . org/de/Computer/[/iCODE] Click on "Deutsch" next to the big PC icon. URL should be now [iCODE]curlie . org/de/[/iCODE] Type "test" into the search box. Press the return key. Exepected: Show the search results for "test". Error: An error page is shown: "The page you attempted to access does not exist on this site.". Reason (IMHO): The "action" of the search form is relative to the current URL. Because there is a "/" at the end of the URL after step 2, a request to [iCODE]curlie . org/de/search?...[/iCODE] is made. The right URL would be [iCODE]curlie . org/search?...[/iCODE]

Any chance you guys could leverage the Registry of Open Data service on AWS. Their Open Data Sponsorship Program is specifically for public data providers and orgs such as curlie.

It looks like the search facility is broken on Curlie. Whatever I try to search, it returns an empty result even when googling for the term limiting it to search only on Curlie via the "site:" operator returns lots of results. I'm using Firefox.

After attempting to log in many times under a username password combo I know was correct, I decided I would just request a change. I did so, and still, I am unable to log in to the editors section at all. It is now to the point where I have exceeded the max tries so I have to wait, but is something wrong with the servers? Is anyone else having issues?

I submitted <url removed> this morning on behalf of my Guruji. After submission I didn't get any Successfully Submitted message. Instead there was a Go Back message. I thought I made a mistake, went back and pressed submit button again. Guess did 2 or 3 times like this as I got the the same message. Just wondering if I had successfully submitted Miracle Yantra site or not. Also for the site title & description I used the same title and description used for met tags. Can you kinldy help me if I have made a mistake? With Guruji's blessings Vadur

Hello, I tried to activate my user at curlie.org/forum, but I don't receive any mail with my password. After I enter my username and email addres I get the information "A new password was sent to your registered email address.". If I use another mail addresse, I get the information "The email/username information submitted could not be found." - so I think I have the correct email address. I checked my spam folder. The email address is unchanged since years and still active. Can you help me?

Username: Kirkman Category: http://www.dmoz.org/Games/Online/BBS_Doors/ Date: 7/7/2013 This morning I received verification by email that my editor application had been approved. So I tried logging in to dmoz.org, but every attempt failed. So then I used the password reset feature and set a new password. But logging in with that new password isn't working either. Can anyone help? --Josh
