The forum has been upgraded to the latest version. Changes as noted:

1. Previously installed mods are now gone (ignore user, trader, etc). Once I know this is stable I will begin re-applying them assuming they're compatible with the current version. Probably be a week before I start this.

2. Attachments are working again! Attachments are working again!

3. Avatars can now be uploaded/changed again!

----------

Let me know if anything acts weird or seems broken.

Search is broken. Will be a while before that's fixed. Recommend google search until then, using the "site:forum.arcadecontrols.com" term in addition to your normal search.

Someone posted a "fix" not long ago regarding Google indexing the "Print Page" as well as the rest of the site. It deals with editing the robots.txt file. I think this post was in Forum Discussion or something. I just did a search and came back with several pages of the "Print Page".

Good news on the attachments!

The Wiki has a bunch of broken links.

Can I see a clean up via a five star Wiki Contributor sorting that out please?

The nice thing about the wiki is that any user who is inclined and sees something that needs doing can do it

hey saint,
just noticed that bookmarks are gone, will this return, will our saved bookmarks return?

Sorry, but searching option doesn't work now!
It shows no results!

That would suck if they're gone for good. I had a bunch of topics saved that I want to be able to refer to in the future. I bet it just got overlooked though and Saint will save the day by turning it back on.

Can't we replace the Search button in the forum with Google SITE: search in the interim?

I'll be looking at the mods to see what I can re-install this Sunday.

I mostly miss the seller/buyer feedback system. Brokered a deal while it's down and hate not having my feedback to back up my rep.

Trader system, bookmarks, and ignore user are first on my list. I'm about to board a plane so can't look now, but last I looked I didn't see that the trader system had been updated for current version of SMF... Will check though.

Huzzah! My Fallout character avatar seems to have lost some weight! Nice work!

I'm not sure why but I can't seem to reach page 2 of my topic. It started when I tried to attach my arcade plans to the topic on page 2. This problem has existed for months and it has never been fixed. I attempted a couple times to contact you about it.

http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=74378.0

Now that the forum has been upgraded, can you look into it to see if page 2 can be recovered?

Thanks in advance!

Weird. It allowed me to post to it, and my post shows up in my post history, but I can't view it. Like you said, page 2 (or clicking "all") does nothing.

Search has now been enabled and tweaked. Both relevance application and topic searching works properly.

Has the robots.txt file been updated as suggested?

I'll see what we can do. I'm pretty sure the data is there, but for some reason the database has lost the reference somewhere. I've repaired via the SMF utility everything it thinks is in error and that still didn't correct it. I'll have to dive into the DB and see what happened. Give us some time.
