The Forum is Back Up. What Was Changed and What Was Broken?

[jkid101094]

So the point of this three day hiatus was to upgrade the forum for it's 7th Birthday, however, nothing seems to have changed. In fact, I've already noticed two broken features being the karma buttons no longer having images and Youtube video links no longer adding the video to a post. Also it seems that the wait time to make a new topic has gotten longer.

What other things have been broken and what has been fixed? It'd be nice if we could get a changelog.

Changelog

• Images for karma buttons are now missing
• YouTube videos no longer embed
• Post previews no longer work in Firefox
• Elija2 is now a mod

All in all I'd say this was a pretty huge upgrade.

[jkid101094]

You're a mod but I'm not an admin yet?

Come on, guys. >:U

[Elija2]

I've been a member here longer than you have. This shit was long overdue.

[jkid101094]

You've also left the site like three times. >:U

[Elija2]

I went on hiatus a few times, big deal.

MT happened.


We should call this site ModeratorZone.

Congratulations dude!

Wait, the forum was in hiatus only for Elija to become a mod?

[Hakudamashi]

Sure, let's go with that.

The forums couldn't handle the greatness of me being a mod until they upgraded it.

MT was basically trying to update to SMF 2.0... and failed.

When I get home after my AP meeting tomorrow I'll attempt to do it myself. Hopefully there won't be much forum downtime when I try to.

[Hakudamashi]

Good luck.

Hey, if any admins are reading this please follow these instructions so I can use post previews again. Thank you in advance.

We were attempting to upgrade the forum, and MT said he will try again eventually. Sadly, I'm losing hope at this point. We've tried this countless times and nothing ever works. We did however update to the latest version of SMF 1.x so at least there's that. I'll see what I can do about the other issues mentioned, and thanks for informing us of what you noticed. Sorry for all the downtime though, I didn't expect that to happen.

Post previews still don't work on Firefox. I am outraged.

Also, is it just me or did a bunch of peoples avatars get lost into the ether?
