v4 Forum Upgrade issues

[Gus Mango Fish]

The table at the start of the brag thread seems to be missing - but wayhay!! a working avatar!

ha, the avatars are a bit weird. Some have transferred across with no problems, but most haven't.

ty for the heads up re: the table. I'll mark that for the "to do" list.

is there any way we can expand how many posts we can have on one page? another forum I use has 20 posts per page..

Yes, if you go to "Settings" (at the top right of the screen) then "Forum Settings" there will be an option there.

OK, it's used my avatar to trump my profile pic. IIRC the profile picture function never worked and you would use avatar for everything, so I'm not sure how it reverted to the spinning dice. But I might just be wrong about that. Also undertitle is working. My sig looks a bit dull though now. I rarely use it anyway.

The Avatar / Profile Pic thing seems to work now. See mine for example: http://www.gamblingnetwork.com/forum...Gus-Mango-Fish

Agree your sig looks a bit pants now. I think it would look better if the people the quotes were attributed to had their names within the quote itself maybe? Like this:

My signature is looking a bit dull these days!

It surely is.

Hello!

The mods arent mods yet. And we appear to be getting about four metric shit-tonnes of spam with the upgrade attached. Thats my thing I noticed.

I've just ticked a couple of boxes on the admin cpanel. Can you check again now?

I just tried to send Swinebag a private message and it says:

"The following errors occurred with your submission
You have reached your stored private message quota and cannot send any further messages until space has been created. "

I have 213 read messages in my inbox.

It looks like the default setting for this install was 50 messages. I've increased this to 250 per user.

Also, the upgrade caused 2 copies of a lot of PMs to be created in each user's inbox. If this is the case with you, you could delete the duplicates or old ones to free up some more space.
