    If you find anything that looks funny or isn't working after the upgrade to the new forum please let us know in this thread.


    Thanks!

    For now I think it works well enough for people to use it. I know there are little missing buttons or emoticons that don't show up here and there.


    Known Bug: when you try to mark multiple unread PMs read at once you may get a redirection error.


    Been staring at this screen for 11 hours now and got a breakfast to be to in the morning. Gonna crash. Add anything you find and I'll check back in tomorrow afternoon.

    Also interested if it seems faster (slower?). The forum is on it's own server now.

    [​IMG]Re: Question about videos


    Hey MR greenjeans, thanks for doing the youtube thing, I really appreciate it. I don't know if you are aware but if a user puts the entire youtube link between the tags it will cause the page to redirect to youtube, just something to look out for.


    Thanks again!

    Til too much spam


    I saw that one of the features of the upgrade was to fix the problem with spammers. Well, there has been a lot of spam on here since the upgrade. I would suggest that if you take a look at what domains it is coming from that you will find tha majority of it comes from the .ru (russian) domains. I'd just block any site signups that originate from any .ru domain. It always worked for my old site.

    I just tested this with a post in the smokers lounge. Instead of throwing you straight to youtube it just makes a white box with no video that keeps you on this site.

    I just went to add a photo to one of my albums, and it looks like I have no albums at all. I had four or five, and now I see nothing but the Add Album link. Pictures appear to be there, as they still show up in threads. Please find my photo albums.

    The GrowKind forum is down for a much needed upgrade. Please check back for updates. The upgrade could take up to 24 hours so please be patient.




    2:00pm PST - Forum brought down. Upgrade completion: 0%




    3:37pm PST - 25% complete




    4:37pm PST - 30-ish% complete - database import running 1 hour now.




    5:32pm PST - still waiting on database import to complete.




    6:24pm PST - ...still importing. at the rate it is going there's at least another hour of importing left.




    7:37pm PST - still importing...




    7:57pm PST - database import complete! upgrade 50% complete.




    8:35pm PST - software upgrade complete. template conversion and bug testing in process. upgrade: 75% complete.

    Maybe it's just not finished yet. That last 10% could take days because of all the photos?

    That's probably what's wrong AB, I don't even see a link to the photo gallery anymore, got to take a back road to get there.

    I was looking tonight and it appears there's a few limitations on the photos that need to be adjusted. Size limits and number of pics. Mine are gone too so rest assured we'll get it ironed out. I know MrGj is digging into the update settings tonight.
