Possible bug/glitch
Hello, Ale jrb. I am experiencing glitches when using Igloo, at first it was lagging the load of reverting the vandalism, but then it would revert and fasle report the next article in the queue. Now, it isn't reverting at all. What should I do?

Thanks,

recently found and started employing Igloo
Hello Ale jrb,

I have recently found and started employing Igloo. I am very impressed and prefer it to both Huggle and STiki. I particularly appreciate "my log" at the bottom of the page. A couple of questions:


 * how does Igloo deal with more than one revision made consecutively?
 * Does it rollback to the previous editor's revision?
 * In the edit summary, why not Igloo – rather than (GLOO)?

Kind regards, -- Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 09:08, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Heya. Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it. Igloo uses the built-in rollback feature - so it will rollback all consecutive edits made by the person you are reverting to the revision of the last, different editor. I chose to use GLOO because it amused me, and is arguably more memorable - advertising, and all that. A le_Jrb talk  09:24, 10 May 2012 (UTC)


 * That was a quick response – thank you! I was granted Rollback permission recently, so that's okay.  Yes, it is more memorable, and it comes before 'h' for Huggle ... Excellent job.  Any tips would be appreciated.


 * How is the warning level selected? Cheers,  -- Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 09:59, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * igloo chooses the correct warning level automatically - you don't need to select it. A le_Jrb talk  12:40, 10 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Clever. I thought that must have been the case, because, after a 'session', I go through the list created on my Watchlist, and look at the warnings, before removing the user's name from my list.  -- Gareth Griffith-Jones (talk) 14:09, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Igloo problem
I'm having a problem with Igloo. Every time I start it up it says to me this error:"Warning: igloo could not connect to the remote server. Loading stopped." It's strange because it was working perfectly yesterday. A520 &#124;   Talk me away! / sign it! 15:12, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

 * I will look into it at some point, but I'm extremely busy at the moment, so can make no guarantees. A le_Jrb talk  23:34, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

 * It appears the Cluenet database server is down. I have no control over this, and don't have time to look for the person who does. I'll try and get it up at some point. A le_Jrb talk  17:39, 30 May 2012 (UTC)


 * I was actually coming here to report the same issue, but since it isn't something you can solve anyway, I'll just content myself with saying: crikey, what an awesome tool igloo is. Thank you, Ale jrb. Here's hoping Cluenet goes back up soon, and we can get back to ploughing through those diffs... Yunshui 雲&zwj;水 18:55, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
