Just done a little investigating. It only works for those people with less than 5k posts.


But you can see your own in your user control panel!

No you can't. You'll see what I mean when you reach 5k. ;)

One more small request - can you move the "post reply" button to the middle of the page? I keep hitting it when I mean to hit "return to sump"...

Probability of this is lower, but I'll look into it.

The system disables this stat after you exceed 5000 posts. According to phpBB team, it's designed to make sure the server isn't overly taxed. It can be changed, but I prefer to have a smooth running server :)

Actually, for the sake of equality and to make sure our system runs more smoothly, i've now disabled this stat for everyone.

OK, the "View your posts" option isn't working for me now. It was working intermittently before, but now it's not worked on several attempts...

We're debugging the search engine. If you reload the search, it will show the results. It sometimes doesn't show on first attempt due to some error in starting the process, and we're looking into it. In the meanwhile, just reload the search and it should work.

This is my only complaint ATM. So go on and fix that now :P

No, seriously I'm stupid and keep closing the redirect tab instead of going back :roll: . Thank You Len, I know is not easy to do a migration.

Yeah, we're looking into it. The reason why links now open in the same windows is because phpbb3 wanted to conform with XHTML 1.0 Strict Attribute, allowing for proper display on all systems and browsers.

For now, simply right click the link and open in new window or tab.

We're definitely going to see if we can get links to open new browsers. This breaks XHTML 1.0 validation but we aim to please our members first 8)
