What's happened to MFP

Susieout · June 2013

Today I've had major problems inputting food into my diary. When I scan the bar codes on foods ( which I've done before) it comes back as something completely different! Food calories don't marry up!

I've also noticed that people's ages on their profiles are missing!

Does MFP have a virus ? Has anyone else had problems with MFP?

The site has been glitchy for the past couple of days for me.

Susieout · June 2013

Yep I'm surprised that nobody else has had issues.:sad:

I noticed the ages are gone on profiles, but haven't had problems logging today.

A virus? Probably just a cold in the code, nothing serious

herblackwings39 · June 2013

The missing ages is the only thing I've really noticed so far. Logging hasn't been an issue for me yet.

HappyElizabeth · June 2013

Me too, it took an hour to enter a couple short recipes into my diary. Very slow. Also, I am still ageless. But, hey, it's free.

This morning on the forum I kept getting "site maintenance" messages. I also haven't been able to sync the app on my phone now for a few hours.

MFP does have a virus. Please get tested and tell anyone you have PMed with to get tested as well.

Maybe they're just seeing where things go and not trying to put pressure on their relationship?

LINIA · June 2013

Missing ages yes.....otherwise...............

Everything is working fine on the 3 APPS where i use MFP, and I believe the missing ages are an executive decision!!!!

Will wait and see if they return or not ;-)

Susieout · June 2013

Yep and please put some clothes on!

Check out the Technical Support section - there have been multiple issues for the last week. Started with people's weigh-ins not registering on their tickers and is now currently affecting how the email updates come through and ages on profiles. They're working on all of it, just be patient.

I was going to say Idiocracy, but then I found out you weren't talking about the people.

SkinnyMsFitness · June 2013

Hi! I'm not having the same problems, but I did have trouble updating my weight 2 days ago...and pages seem to load pretty slow compared to other websites. Ugh! Technology is great - WHEN it works properly!! lol

Hopefully they fix it soon!

Pangea250 · June 2013

I've noticed the age thing lately, at least for a week.

TheBeerRunner · June 2013

They probably released some new code which wasn't fully regression tested. They should really invest in better Quality Assurance. :laugh:

leebesstoad · June 2013

I'm just glad my profile says "years old" instead of simply "old". Now THAT would have hurt.

Ericsawicki · June 2013

they are updating the mobile site to be "easier to use" and it is probably effecting the desktop site as well.

dare2love81 · June 2013

That was unnecessary.

ILuvMoo · June 2013

I'm having issues with the forum (ha) so if my last post DID post, I'm sorry for the redundancy

But I used to use a different app called "Lose It!" which was the same concept as MFP, and the app was SO MUCH BETTER. I use it 99% on my phone, so the app quality is important.

MFP is super popular, so I thought it must be good, but no.

I only switched over to MFP because some friends were starting a group on here and wanted me to join. Also, I'd been struggling with getting back into the swing of logging my food religiously after taking a several-month break from tracking my calories (I had to stop losing weight because I bought a wedding dress that fit and I didn't want to have to pay for alterations if I dropped a size lol!), so the group has been good in that sense.

I'm getting really tempted to get the whole group to move to "Lose It!" though :devil:

jackpotclown · June 2013

Yep and please leave those clothes off! .......There, corrected for you \m/

meeper123 · June 2013

The cell apps been messed up for me

AllTehBeers · June 2013

Clothes are always unnecessary.

And Remember, when you PM someone, you're PMing with everyone they have PM'ed with.

dare2love81 · June 2013

EXACTLY!!

If I had a back like 1CG I'd show it off too!

_Waffle_ · June 2013

Yeah, you're shaming the people that can't pull off this look.

ILuvMoo · June 2013

I used to use an extremely similar app called "Lose It!", which had a much more user-friendly interface and just was smoother and more intuitive than MFP in every way.

For as popular as MFP is, I had high hopes. But so far I've been really disappointed in the app. It's buggy and slow and covered in ads.

I only switched over because some friends were starting a group on MFP and wanted me to join, and I'd been having a hard time getting back into the swing of logging my foods after taking a hiatus to get married (didn't want to keep losing weight once my dress fit, or else it'd end up too big!) so it was a kick-start to get back into the swing of logging.

Lol, sence of humour....... Love it!!!
