This is the error that Google kept getting yesterday.
Now it seems that others are getting it, too! I've seen Farjo and another in the error log as well.

The only difference this morning is that I disabled pretty topic URLs, 'just in case'... I'll re-enable them because I don't think it changes anything.

That's possibly because I temporarily disabled Bad Behavior.
But it's unrelated to the fact that I've spotted where the error comes from: Bad Behavior returns a false positive on you guys, and then tries to attach an error, but it errors out on a different matter (i.e. trying to SHOW the error) before it even gets to show you the error. So, the 'board not found' error is not your error, it's Bad Behavior's. Well, not Bad Behavior's, but the code that is inspired by BB. :P

Another bug (unrelated?): click Preview when replying to a Personal Message. It insists that you're not the author, and sends a fatal error.

What do you mean with: false positive?

I tried the preview button when replying to your PM. It seems to work just fine....

Addendum: the error only occurs if you press Reply or Quote on one of your own PMs... The Preview works otherwise. But if it's a PM of yours -- error message.

@willemjan> False positive means that Bad Behavior is telling Wedge that you're doing a potentially 'suspect' action, and thus is attempting to restrict your movements. But it seems that generating the error forces Wedge to call loadPermissions() which in turns tries to load a board ID but it hasn't been filled in yet, so it generates an error for that problem, rather than for the original problem.

Anyway, that's for Pete to fix now...

BTW, what the HELL are these HTTP requests for wedge.org/mobiquo/tapatalkdetect.js?!
Wedge is not compatible with Tapatalk. If I'm getting one of these failed requests once more, I'll mailbomb them!
Well, maybe not, but it's been a long time since I've seen the word mailbomb, wanted to use it!

I don't know, do you have a tapatalk app installed somewhere?

It seems to be coming from 'guests', so I think it's someone on their iPhone or something that's running the Tapatalk app and trying to access Wedge.org, or something... I don't know. You know, perhaps it identifies Wedge as SMF and tries to find some custom code that will allow for Tapatalk to communicate with it.
But there's no such thing, so...!

That's interesting, because it shouldn't work like that. Stuff on Tapatalk has to be listed in their big ol' database, and Wedge isn't (I checked)
So that's an interesting result really.

Maybe these are leftovers from when it was an SMF board?

I don't think so, it's specific to Tapatalk, and all communities accessible via Tapatalk have to be manually added to their DB (and it's not there now), so I have no idea, as Tapatalk has never been installed here to the best of my knowledge.

Yup, for the forum to be listed at Tapatalk, we need to apply for it and then they add the forum to their database.

That's one of the greatest things that irritates me about Tapatalk.

Anyway, it's curious to see Tapatalk requests being made when it's not even installed here.
