Brickset.com site issues

davee123

Are instructions no longer working to older instruction repositories?  The only ones that seem to show for me are things to LEGO, but not to other places like PICSL, etc.

Also, I noticed that there seems to be some sort of ... maybe CORS validation issue? I had a flat HTML page that showed <IMG> tags sourced from BrickSet, but the images wouldn't load on my iPhone.  Switched them to BrickLink images, and they worked fine.  Similarly, if I turned off "Prevent Cross-Site Tracking", the BrickSet images loaded (BrickLink images worked either way).

I guess generally it seems like I've had more recent issues connecting lately (last month or so maybe?), getting intermittent timeouts.  I'm assuming it's the server getting too much traffic or something?

I've been getting intermittent timeouts as well lately. And only after I was on the site for a couple of minutes doing some ACM filling in. Or looking something up. Happened on 2 separate occasions last week.

@davee123, that data is pulled in from Swooshable which doesn't seem to be responding at the moment so I'll get in touch with Linus.

Site is down, Cloudflare says the problem is on Brickset’s end.

  I use brickset to print labels for my sets in storage. However, I struggle on finding a good way to print the labels. Both Chrome and Firefox both cut the page right in the middle of images. Has anyone had success printing labels from brickset?

^ My current work around is to screen shot every three rows and paste the image into a word document. It works, but is a bit cumbersome.

You could try https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gofullpage-full-page-scre/fdpohaocaechififmbbbbbknoalclacl?hl=en-GB, then chop the image up.

I think I've looked at tweaking the print CSS to prevent page breaks like that in the past, but obviously had no success.

Have the auto-results in the main site's search box stopped working for anyone else?  If I search 10211 for example, the only result that pops up is "Search database for '10211' >>" instead of including a link directly to the set.

@WesterBricks you're right.

I've had a lot of trouble loading instructions on the individual set pages, and in the popup instructions box by each set in a list.

Fixed now!

I was just wondering if the new parts in the sets released in February should be on the listing under Dates Added on the https://brickset.com/parts page? The Lego replacement parts section seems to have pictures for the new parts in the new sets.
