Forum Upgrade Issues Log

As you may have noticed, I've upgraded the forum software to the latest version.
Whilst this include aesthetic changes, it also includes security changes.

However, there are still a few bits and pieces for me to change such as:

* the Groving Between field isn't currently usable
* the range of smileys has to be re-inserted

I've also set the following:
Time Interval Between Posts = 1 min
A Forum Member can Post a Maximum of 5 Posts in 8 minutes

If you notice any other items that need fixing or changing then please let us know.

Thanks.
They were obviously all reset to the new version's defaults but have been changed back.
If anyone had custom permissions set and they are missing, do please let me know.

And our signature at the bottom of our posts?

Went into my profile and I can't see where I can add an avatar or signature.

Also can you not edit a post anymore after you have posted it?

Just noticed post options and the drop down menu.

Sorry KB,

I see my avatar is back. Guess work still in progress. Will log out and come back later.

Uploading photos? Is it done the same? Testing 1/2/3 ......clicked on the "tree" icon..........no idea what to do next

That five posts in eight minutes, why?

If I'm uploading photos this is going to be a pain...........and the one minute wait.

The spamming message will keep coming up.

Don't agree at all with these limitations. Please explain why? Members should be able to post as many posts as they like in as quick a time as they like............

As a regular user just pointing out some flaws ..............

Second time posting this as the 1 minute rule zapped me into spamming ..........and I lost what I was posting...............as below..............so had to start again...........

There used to be an option of "back to top" on each post................will that be a feature again  back................

Ye...saying I can only have 5 msgs in the outbox at one time & to go delete some.

Right :
The spam flood protection (posts within a certain time frame) has been disabled.

The "Back to top" link is still there - its the icon at the top right of each post. Are you wanting a text version of this?

Editing posts is now not time affected (it was limited to 30 mins by default with the new software)

The PMs should be ok now.

Each forum will list post from the last month by default.

With regard to image uploads, this is now available (I had to upgrade the software licence for this).

Hi Killian...
