Registration date displays yr/mo/day (Is it supposed to display that way?) I guess so.
Birthdate is off by one day. (Still off by one) Now fixed.

Registered users is off by one. (Still off by one)

Reputation system shows for members and the topics they started, but not mine.
(I still can't see mine for the topics I start.)

Not sure if friends and foes are working correctly. (This adds friends for some and others it does not.)

Within profiles and the fields created, we somehow lost the ability to modify images to a list. It doesn't allow you to add more to the list if need be. (Cannot add to the list yet, the add button is still missing.)

In modules, character sheet say's active yes, and that there are 6 character sheets. We only have four members and only three of them have generated their character sheets. (Still off by one.) Now fixed.

There are two things that I'm confused with: (Please direct me where to go for help on these things.)

1) How rep and point systems work. I have read the instructions and need some clarification for myself and members.
I found more info. Thank you!

2) The comment section on the members profile - Still need help with this one. Is this for the Admins or is this for members to comment on "other" members profiles?

Aside from the above, everything else seems to be working.

Finally, thank you to all of forumotion for this update!

Edited: To say, I found a few other things -

The registration date points are not generating in anyone's profile or post. Seem to be working now.
When viewing a members profile from the homepage, there are two links at the bottom of mine (forum founder), under Administrate user: Profile - Ban this member. No one else has "Ban this member" option when viewing their profiles. Yikes! I don't want my members banning me! This has been fixed. (My announcing scroller looks better too!) Thank you very much!!!!

I will be doing more checks on things today, and post my findings if any. Thank you.

*Found today - New registrants that come through your webmail are not date stamped, but rather time stamped. Not sure if it has something to do with this update. I checked this info against the inactive users list in the Admin section, where you find your new users to activate or de-activate. It records it properly in there. Now fixed.

Member counts though, are still off by one.

I know its taking some time to get these things sorted, but well worth the wait!

Hi Preston,

I had problems with this at first too. What I found that I wasn't doing was clicking the green check mark in the colour palette box. When you go to change the colour of the profile text, the colour palette opens and you select your colour, but there is a check mark in green you have to click after you've selected the colour. After that, click "Save" for the changes to take affect. Hope this helps and works for you.

thank you Brad38!

you solved my problem

*Chines zodiac is not correct


and problem with

* Profiles
* Profile fields
* Modify

Who can modify the profile field value ?
Moderators

They cant change nothing in member profiles

Yep, Chinese zodiacs are wrong and the avatar gallery is still not allowing us to go through the different albums. Every time you click on a different album, it takes you back to the first one.

But now it turns out I have the same problem, here is a screenshot:

I HAD a profile field that was html - I had medals I would award members for certain things. Now I am unable to change that field as it is now a TEXT ONLY FIELD. BRING BACK the html field. I have 900+ members and they are all screwed up.

So um, we have no html field any longer. Is this the intention?
I need this, as my members acquired different medals. (images) Half of them show up for my members, the other half of my members just have the raw html code for the images showing up.

So um, we have no html field any longer. Is this the intention?

This requires a simple yes or no answer. Of which, I have yet to receive.

new members cannot register.
after having entered all registration information and after confirming the password again you are always returned to previous page.
password confirmation being correct was verified (not a typo, invalid mail or other wrong info that could have cause the issue).
tried many times on different machines with different mails, user/pass combos, doesnt work.
very annoying, hope for fix soon.

I am having the same problem ... new members trying to register just get re-directed back to the first page without their account being created. Hope for a fix to this very soon

RE: The Zodiacs, there is another problem with the feature. You can't edit the URL address for the pictures or change the text associated with the icon. The text for the Chinese version of Taurus says "Buffalo", should say "Bull".

Warning meter still not able to be changed from a members profile

I just dont have the buttons for the log in pop up

Personalized profiles problem!

All my members had a personalized profile with this code in it by default:

Code:

<a href="http://auto-vidin.com/html-h1.htm"><img src="http://share.pacomlan.com/images/kXU81176.png" alt="Click"></img></a>

It leads to a message saying "We are sorry! This user hasn't posted an introduction yet."
Than after the user got tired of the ugly image and the annoying message he would post an introduction topic and one of my Mods would change the links in the above code, so that the image is not annoying any more and the link leads to his personal introduction topic.
It all worked perfectly before the update. After the update my Mods can not change the the code from the users' profiles any more. I need to go to the admin panel to do that.
Additionally, now the profile field looks like this for everyone- members/mods/admins...

Terrible!

Before the updates that field was set up as "Enriched text" or something like that.
After the updates it was turned into "Text zone".
I deleted it and made a new field "Text field" with the same code in it. At first it worked (but the Code still couldn't be edited from the user's profile) It worked for some hours and than it started showing the same picture as the one above.

That field is very important for my forum! It has been disabled for several days now and the effects are already showing. Additionally, now is absolutely the worst time for such a problem
I'm using my forum for the platform of an automotive club. Our first birthday is in a week and we are organizing a serious racing event to celebrate it. Around all the promotion the new users count is going off the charts. I can not have the only thing that is making them properly introduce themselves fall apart right now

Please, someone!!! Take a look at those fields as soon as possible. I need my html running ASAP.
I don't care that we'll have to redo all the links for all users again. I've got enough people to do that.

Thanks in advance!

Ok I'm going to assume this is a problem related to the updates. Even though it recently happened, I have neither touched anything or did anything to the site. I'm the only Admin there.

It claims that people last visited several hours ago, but are still online. So when they post. Instead of saying posted at 8:20, it will say posted at 7:20. It's kind messing up the posts as sooner or later I'm sure they will be automatically moved to fit that time description in the thread.

As you can see in the two links provided from the bottom. They are threads where the time was out of order. I don't know how serious of a problem that is and why it is happening. I just assumed it might be due to the updates. Sorry if I'm wrong.
