About the new forum

Yes, the new system does seem to count posts a bit differently. Not quite sure why!

Well the smileys are working a bit better, and I no longer have access to the bizarre extra list, with sushi! But the list is a little short, and the loss of smileys from old transferred posts is a shame, especially as some lose their sense without them.

Not overly impressed.......it's taken me ages to log in!!!

Had to reset password in the end....:~

Noted. On the list to restore all smiliness to old posts...

Giving up trying to add colour to my signature....nevermind spacing it as I want it!!

I've also lost some posts on my post count.......(

As others have stated, the layout is too busy and very unclear.....

Can we have the old version back???? PLEASE!!!!!!!

I think the old forum used to count deleted double posts.

Where did my last post go????

 

[Pistol Pete1]

From page 2 you can't get to page 3 on this thread???

You have the option of page 3 on page 1........but not page 2????

Why are peoples 'join dates' in the American format? That will drive me crackers, it just looks wrong. (checked my account settings and they are set to Europe/London, btw.)

Nope top job as the playing on the mock forum and past attempts have shown this was never going to be easy. I hope you get extra holidays and more pay after doing all of this work...

The See all latest posts/Active topics doesn't seem to be updating properly... I posted on the 'What are you listening to? thread 30 mins ago, yet that thread isn't in the active topics list.

new site looks good - a bit different to look at - like a new filling (feels very odd for about 3 days, and then fully normal).

Not happy about the "American date" format - this side of the pond it's "day - month"!

And I get to hit "2000 posts" again. Hurrah.

chosing the pages on top of the screen and chosing the page on the post before opening it was a must that was lost.

Team help. Two things shocked me. First is the number of post, it was around 800+, but now its showing 752!!!, I need my actual number of posts back. Second, my signature gone!

PS: The avatar doen't look sharp at all.

? No you don't.

Second, my signature gone!

Type it in again.

 

[vinod_david]

Mr E or JD what's the reason for posts going missing, please?

 

[Andrew Everard]

At the moment we don't know, but we're looking into it.

FWIW, if you've lost about 50 posts off your total, I've lost around 2000, not that it matters very much - it's just a number...

Bizarre signature, by the way...

Also, missing the old date tags for recent posts i.e. 'Today', 'Yesterday', and then dates older than that.

I have a profile picture now that has been automatically brought over from facebook, very clever!

When I post. They don't appear on to update the thread when looking at the 'view latest posts'.

Well, that one did...

...And some of my posts seem to disappear.

... And reappear.

I think that may be a cacheing problem at your end. None of them have vanished as far as I can see.
