Is there any way to get to the last post? 

 

Is this the right place to post any questions about the new look???

AND in reply...

Eeek! Ok, the messy formatting of my above post has prompted annother question... Will we still be able to edit our posts? I cant seem to find an edit button anywhere to fix that mevss, lol...

Reported by: Seanie

The Word Association thread does have a strange problem with listing pages.

I'll ask Zack to take a look tonight (Monday)

Not familiar with navigation from one site to next yet - needed to log on twice - once at front page and then for a thread in pecheron forum - is this double security for anti spammers?

Navigation - Hmmmm I didn't realise it had changed much, you've given me a challenge there ;) I will have to come up with a step-by-step guide for Navigating

Logging in twice - I will let Zack (Lord of the Gurus) know. Let us know if it happens again please :)

Hi Trent,

I like the new look, but agree it will take awhile to get used to.

I wondered if all previous PM's that were on file were wiped? None of mine show up when I've logged in for the first time.

Cheers,

Kimberley

Hi Kimberley,

"no PMs have been lost, we're just being careful with what can be seen and doing it all one step at a time, the old messages will be visible ASAP"

We're being a little overcautious so we don't have Return of The SPAMMERS on our hands :)

Cheers,
Trent

Hi Seanie,

The persistant problem with forum posts is being worked on at the moment.

All posts made in specific topics ARE being processed and appended to forum topics, but aren't being displayed in the correct order at the moment.

I'll hopefully have this fixed (along with any other bugs reported here) by the end of today.

Hi Zachy Fiona here. I work on an iMac and don't seem to have access to the icons that everyone else does - all those emoticons. I don't use them often but I just thought I'd check whether this is something that I'm not doing right or whether it is just a software compatibility thing. Thanks for all you do....no rush. F

I assume that my inability to see any posts after 4 Jan is normal?  All later posts have just dropped off the end of the earth!

Hi,
I just noticed that at least 2 topics under the Writer's Forum have disappeared and the other ones are missing sizable chunks of data.
Links received via subscriber emails do not work either, so the data / DB is either not accessible or not linked.
E.g.: Last week's topics "Faces" and "22nd Jan(something)" are gone and the "2008 begins topic has shrunk to 1 page.
HELP!!!

Sorry Zack hasn't replied. He's been trying to work out why it happened.

If anyone (like Inkwell) can give Zack topics that have posts in the area of January 4th + that have disappeared, please let him know.

Cheers,
Trent

I don't remember many specific ones, though I'm pretty sure there was one (under Valisar?) Structural Edit. That whole thread is gone now, though, so I don't know if it's of any help.

  Hmmm - the Valisar thread yes - and also  Goddess spoilers, and Writers forum, and Scribes corner, and last one I can recall is the Whisperer.  Hope that assists.
