vBadvanced.com Forum Changes

[Brian]

We've just finished making a few changes here that we hope will help to organize things a little better, and improve everyone's experience.

1). We've upgraded to vBulletin 3.6.

2). We had started creating new sub-forums for each vBulletin version for most of our support forums, but this was starting to get a bit messy. We've added a new "vB Version" column to threads in these forums to try and help with this and provide some better organization. All of the "vBulletin 3.0" and "vBulletin 3.5" forums have now been removed, and the threads inside them moved up a level with the proper vB version applied them. This helps us cut the number of forums down by about 35, and hopefully make things a little easier on everyone. There are also options to search for threads pertaining to specific vB versions, as well as an option to show threads for only certain vB versions in each forum.

3). We've moved a few links and such to make things easier to navigate. One example you will see is the "[Programs / Scripts] - [Members' Area] - [Support Forums]" links across the header of every page now.

We hope everyone enjoys the new changes here. Hopefully we've managed not to break anything in this process, but if anyone does find any problems please let us know.

It seems that multi-quote isn't working. When I click on it, the image isn't changing.

There is also something wrong with the cron system. For example the search cache table isn't cleared every hour:
Search took 0.67 seconds; generated 849 minute(s) ago. When you click a thread title in the Last Post column of the forum index or a sub-forum on forumdisplay.php, it gives an error page (wrong url). I think you need to revert some templates.

http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/images/misc/progress.gif and some other new images are missing.

Both admin demo's (CMPS & Links Directory) aren't working any more.

And can you readd the "Home/Forums" link to the navbar template?

It seems that multi-quote isn't working. When I click on it, the image isn't changing. I'm looking into this, I'm guessing its a postbit/showthread issue.

Edit: Fixed

There is also something wrong with the cron system. For example the search cache table isn't cleared every hour: Shouldn't matter as if there are new posts then it should get updated, maybe you had a cached page? I'll check into it though.

When you click a thread title in the Last Post column of the forum index or a sub-forum on forumdisplay.php, it gives an error page (wrong url). I think you need to revert some templates.Should be fixed shortly.

Edit: Fixed, should be anyway.

http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/imag...c/progress.gif and some other new images are missing.We are aware of the missing images, some of them need to be custom made for the style.

And can you readd the "Home/Forums" link to the navbar template? That was removed since its atad bit redundant with the new links.

The last post links in the latest threads module on the front page don't work, and when you do update them they need to end in "#post[postnumber]" as "#p[postnumber]" doesn't work in Opera (the download still contains "#p[postnumber]" so that needs fixing). These links would also be broken in the news archive if you ran it (again the download needs fixing).

Also you might want to check your logs to see if the front page cron image is trying to load from /cron.php (and so getting a 404) rather than /forum/cron.php as I've seen this problem on a few sites running vBadvanced 2.2.0.

brian, you seem to have a few missing images. The Multiquote image is not showing in threads and also the Skype image in the usercp options is not showing also

Thanks for pointing those things out. The broken links should be fixed as soon as we get the new version of the CMPS uploaded here, and the images should be fixed now.
