NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11625 Loc: CA	Okay Les you should be able to upload your own Avatar now. I had enabled it but when the board broke and I had to do a restore the restore settings did not contain the change. Should work now. You can also attach files to posts up to 200K (until someone abuses this feature). Edited by NTDOC (2006-11-25 11:08 PM)

I say, lets downgrade. this version doesn't seem worth it. I gotta agree with Jooel here (Thats a first :)) But this board looks like crap imo.

There are many changes in when and where it reads from memory and cache instead of direct disk reads. There are still some issues with the code and IE but they claim to be working on it. FireFox does handles the CSS differently.

Mart Mart KiX Supporter Registered: 2002-03-27 Posts: 4673 Loc: The Netherlands	Spent six days in Dublin (22nd to 27th) and was surprised by the new looks of the board when I got back. Appears to be working great. Good job Doc, thanx. _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.

NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11625 Loc: CA	Well the site was down or semi-broken for the past 8 hours. I finally did a restore of the site (not the database) but this did not fix the issue. Finally had to drop the database and re-import it from backup that was done earlier today. There were probably around maybe 10 posts that were lost in this process. If one of the posts belonged to you, sorry, please repost.

Mart Mart KiX Supporter Registered: 2002-03-27 Posts: 4673 Loc: The Netherlands	Guess this one was lost so here it is once more. The search comes with a time period of posts newer then one week. Imho this is waaaay to small. Is this something that should be set in the admin side of the board or is it a user relates setting? I couldn't find it in my settings. Is there any way to pump this up to the 3 years the old board had? _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.

NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11625 Loc: CA	Actually I did change it to 3 years and that is when the board starting having problems. The old software did not do FULL TEXT searches according to UBB. This new version does but if you have a few people doing these searches on large periods of time the tables lock while the search is happening. Not bad when only a few people on, but if there are large amounts of users the board will crawl. For now just keep in mind what you want/need to search for and adjust accordingly. It might have been coincidence but for now I will leave the search date as it is. Let's get some more days behind us where the board keeps working well before customizing too much.

NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11625 Loc: CA	Currently checking with them on their caching method. Found over 65,000 temp files from the board in the C:\WINDOWS\TEMP folder. I deleted all of them after the drop and re-import and they're now back up to about 800 files and 10MB of space. I don't mind them creating/using them, but if it uses this many this fast it needs a solid method to do a cleanup of them as well otherwise within a few weeks or less the OS will quit responding as it will be out of space.

NTDOC NTDOC Administrator Registered: 2000-07-28 Posts: 11625 Loc: CA	Well getting late here time to head to bed. Hopefully the board runs fine for now. It will probably slow a bit in about an hour as it does another backup of the system and database. Edited by NTDOC (2006-11-30 11:49 AM)

masken masken MM club member Registered: 2000-11-27 Posts: 1222 Loc: Gothenburg, Sweden	I'm quite sure I posted here about the maximum edit time being set in the admin cp? Anyhow, it seems like older messages cannot be edited, which causes problems in the UDF-section etc. Edited by masken (2006-11-30 12:28 PM) _________________________ The tart is out there
