The ThaiVisa site forum server software uses plug-ins/hooks to provide service to non-web browser clients.

It's one of these plug-ins/hooks on the SERVER SIDE that's causing the issue.

Thank you, RichCor, for your investigation into this. Based on your findings, I hope that this bug will now get fixed.

Thankyou for your "kind" comments. I am a farang but I do live in Thailand. No further comment is warranted

Thanks for the quoted text. It revealed that the quoted text notification system had not been fixed.

I was having fun with the return reply (to which I guessed the notification is still broken and you wouldn't receive).

The whole exchange (and lack of notifications) did get me curious as to the actual cause an spurred me to do some simple research that I then forwarded on to support. Hopefully it will turn out to be the answer to an ultimate fix.

So while I was having a bit of humorous fun, possibly at your expense, you potentially are the reason a possible actionable course may now be in the works.

Then again, I could be wrong. Again.

I'm getting some through to my android ThaiVisa Connect app via notifications. Still many missing, and no notifications on the website.

I wish someone would give us an issue update.

Considering how long this has been going on and that a mod (Maestro) was involved and has tried to respond I am somewhat bemused that there has been no real "official" statement about a solution. Even if it were only to let posters know that it is being looked at but they are having issues resolving it...........blink.png

If I were of that ilk I may be thinking that perhaps they get more page views as people have to check back on posts more often to see if there is a reply........................or something coffee1.gif

FWIW, I also have this issue for a while now. I don't use email notification, I just look at the small Notification icon at the top of the page. It shows a number value when posts are liked, but not if someone quotes/responds like it used to.

Not the end of the world, but a walk backward. Youtube embeds show up as black screens for about the same amount of time as this Notification thing has been occurring.

I'm PC, Win 7, Mozilla latest version with updated plug ins.

The good news is there is a quick fix for the in-browser/emailed "new post" and "quoted post and reply" notifications issue.

The bad news is it involves removing support for the ThaiVisa Connect Android and iOS devices.

I believe it's the software 'hook' that's causing the issue.

The YouTube embed black screen is unrelated, and most likely a browser plug-in issue on your end.

I would embed a helpful YouTube video, but that might be considered trolling.

So does this means the issue will be fixed or not? It worked fine until this new update to the app....why not just reissue the old app?

It's a server-side issue.

Probably the Tapatalk modules that allow ThaiVisa Connect to work.

Version 4.2.2+ of the Tapatalk "Hook" and/or "Plugin" forum modules were supposedly created to fix the issue. But here we still are.

If it's not the Tapatalk modules, then some other recently added server-side code it creating the issue.

FWIW, found the problem w/ embedded YT vids. You were right. Extension "You Tube Center 2.1.7" in Firefox v37. Disable the extension, the embedded video appears on my screen. Thanks. thumbsup.gif

In another thread Crossy mentioned something to do with "a new version of the software" - is that the same speak as App?

As Swiss1960 mentions it is now over a month since george's last comment. An observation on a likely time scale would be very welcome - whether that be one or many more months away?

Lets face it....nobody cares and they are not going to fix the issues. This first appeared back in Feb and the only time somebody says anything is when one of us reminds them here. Typical response to any issue a person has.

Silver linings. You're likely to waste less of your remaining life engaged in pointless, predictable banter about the ills of Thailand. It's a lovely day outside, get out there! biggrin.png

      Thai-Chinese Collaboration: MOU Signed for Environmentally Friendly Waste-to-Energy Plant

      A groundbreaking Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between Thailand’s Vision Inspector and Engineering Co., Ltd. and China’s Aurorean Recovery Co., Ltd., marking a major step in the development of environmentally friendly community waste-to-energy power plants. The signing ceremony, held at Aurorean Recovery’s headquarters, was attended by key figures from both organisations. Representing Vision Inspector and Engineering were Chairman Visarat Potprasart, Civil Engineering Manager Wisarut Rithilert, Public Sector Liaison Manager Chatchai Sapseesuwan, Technical Specialist Manager Manoon Permpintong, Electrical Engineering Manager Natchawarakan Pornrattanun, and Facility Manager Manoch Wangnak. The Chinese side was led by Mr. Thomas Jing, Chairman of Aurorean Energy. Under the agreement, the two companies will collaborate on the Waste-to-Energy (Thai-China) project, leveraging advanced gasification technology to generate electricity from municipal waste. Operating at high temperatures of 1,000-1,200 degrees Celsius, the gasification system promises a clean energy solution free of dioxins, pollutants, waste by-products, and odours. The waste incinerator, featuring a 360-degree rotational axis, ensures optimal combustion quality. Residues from the process can be repurposed into high-strength construction materials or landfill materials, while excess energy from the steam turbine system can be managed efficiently, maintaining sub-zero temperatures where needed. This innovative approach addresses waste management challenges while supporting environmental sustainability, combining waste elimination with clean energy production. The project’s initial implementation will take place in Kanchanaburi province as part of Thailand’s broader strategy to establish permanent waste management solutions and generate renewable energy. With an investment of THB 1.35 billion, the pilot plant will feature a 6-megawatt capacity and handle at least 500 tons of waste per day. The project aligns with the Energy Regulatory Commission’s 2022 directive on purchasing electricity from community waste-to-energy plants. Construction is expected to be completed within three years, setting a benchmark for similar projects across Thailand’s municipalities, provincial administration organisations, and subdistrict administrative organisations. The partnership highlights the shared commitment of Thai and Chinese enterprises to leveraging advanced technology for sustainable development, with a vision to support special economic zones, tourism, and border trade.

      Sing Buri: Pickup Truck Crash Claims the Lives of Father and Daughter

      A crash occurred in Sing Buri province, where a father and his young daughter lost their lives following a collision between a motorcycle and a pickup truck. On November 22, 2024, officers from the Bang Rachan Police Station were alerted to a crash on Highway 3454 near Wat Muang Intersection, Bang Rachan District, Sing Buri. The crash involved a motorcycle and a gray Isuzu D-Max pickup truck, both bearing Sing Buri license plates. Upon arrival at the scene, authorities found three injured individuals. Among them was a woman who was a passenger in the pickup truck. Rescue volunteers promptly transported her to Sing Buri Hospital for treatment. Additionally, two other individuals, both in critical condition, were discovered at the site. Rescue teams performed CPR in an effort to save their lives, but tragically, both succumbed to their injuries. Preliminary investigations revealed that the deceased were a father and his daughter who had been riding the motorcycle. Authorities are continuing their investigation to determine the exact cause of the crash. Picture from responders. -- 2024-11-24

      Inspection of Popular Pattaya Tourist Attraction for Land Misuse Thandol Suwannarit, head of the working committee tasked with investigating improper land acquisitions and ownership violations, led a team to inspect a well-known tourist farm in Pattaya. The farm, spanning 150 rai, is suspected of encroaching on land designated by the Land Reform for Agricultural Purposes, Sor Por Kor (S.P.K.) and using the land for purposes not aligned with its intended use.
