What is a Bug?

A bug is typically some kind of glitch, flaw, or error in the code that causes an outcome that is different than what is intended by the software design. This basically just means that something is not working the way it was designed to. Keep in mind that a bug is not the same thing as a virus despite the similarity in medical terminology.

How to Report a Bug


    Please include the following information (so we can help you!):


    • the URL of the site or page where the problem occurred,
    • your browser version & Operating System,
    • as much detail as possible (tell us the "what, where, how, when, and why"),
      • What were you doing right before the problem?
      • Describe what you saw when the problem happened.
      • Describe any error messages you received
      • What did you expect would happen?

    DO NOT POST ANY PASSWORDS.



    1. First, please sign in if at all possible so we know who you are!.

    2. Report bugs you've found by posting a new thread below.

    Avoid leaving comments that that don't include all the information in the red box above:
    • "My widgets don't work"
    • "I can't sign in"

    If you're having trouble with the content of a particular wiki, that's something to take up with the Moderators of that wiki. Wetpaint cannot control content or comments created by other users.

    The comments on this page are reviewed daily. While we try to be responsive in a timely manner, we don't comment on future release dates, and it may take us several days to respond to an issue.

    Including appropriate information makes it possible for us to review the problem - without this information it's really hard to help!

    - The Wetpaint Crew
