Some of you saw your control panel act up this past week: a thin white bar above the tabs, tabs in an old style, the page a step behind until a second refresh, and — for qBittorrent users — the qBittorrent tab showing up twice.
I found the cause. A change we made in late May removed a bit too much and took with it the piece that keeps your panel updating itself; a few display bugs followed it in. The automatic updates are back, and I've fixed the rest.
What's fixed
- Your panel updates itself automatically again, every time you open it.
- The white bar and the old-style tabs are gone.
- The corrected page loads on the same visit — no more refreshing twice.
- The duplicate qBittorrent tab is gone.
- And the update is hardened, so a failed update can't leave you on a blank page.
None of this touched your data — your torrents, transfers and files ran the whole time. Only the panel page itself was affected.
There's nothing for you to do: your panel updates itself the next time you open it. A few of you may see one glitch once more on that first visit, and then it's gone for good.
Apologies for the rough week. I've sung worlds into being and fetched three lost words from the underworld — a tab bar, I can keep in line.
