Forum software upgrade complete
Hi everyone,
Tonight I have upgraded the forum to vBulletin 4.2.0. I have tested most functionality and it all seems to be working fine. If you are having any issues, please first clear your browser's internet history completely, then do a hard refresh of the page (in most browsers, Ctrl + F5 will do this). If you are still having issues, please let us know and we will troubleshoot it. Thanks.
Ryan
Forum software upgrade complete
I was in panic mode for a bit! Lol glad the new software is up and running!
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
I was panicing myself when I seen the "Whats New" section first. I almost rebooted my computer to see if all was ok. Personally I like seeing the "Forum" section first when I log in.

I think the smiles are not working
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
Is there any way to straighten it out without clearing my whole history? I'm logged onto many sites and imagine I'd have to re-sign in on all, don't know if I have all my passwords, some it's been a long time since signing in.

Re: Forum software upgrade complete
Minor complaint, stuck in my old ways I guess, but anyway to change the whats new to a list like it was? So instead of seeing each post by someone I just see the thread and its like bam....new posts here. Instead of seeing Discus-n00b replied to this thread. If its a popular thread it takes up the entire Whats New section and you are scrolling for hours for other posts.

Matt,
When you click on the What's New tab, click "New Posts." See if this is what you're looking for. The forum now defaults to Activity Stream in an effort to make vBulletin more Facebook-like (which I'm not a fan of!).
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
Matt just click the new posts link and it looks like it was.

What problems are you encountering with the forum?
You can try just hitting Ctrl + F5 from the home page of Simply and it should force the page itself to reload.
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
I do not like the Activity Stream feature either.
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
DOH thanks Ryan, I didn't look that far up. Thanks!
Re: Forum software upgrade complete
I've disabled the Activity Stream link at the top. Clicking the "What's New?" tab should now automatically load New Posts. This feature, understandably, will only work if you're logged into the forum. Otherwise you'll get a message asking you to log in. The forum only tracks which posts are new/unread for registered members.
