Are people still seeing old avatars and ranks or is that fixed now? You can now upload/update your avatar image again.

Hermit, I will look into the search tonight, but rev is right as far as the native search stuff being a bit crap. There is the issue with the keyword though that I believe can be fixed, as phpBB just keeps a db list of overly common words that it doesn't allow and that can be edited.

Thanks, Rachel. Somehow I don't think the word "meanwhile" is likely to be on the list of overly common words, but how would I know?

I'm still seeing my old avatar. That's a good thing, though. I've never changed it since I registered here.

Mine went back to the avatar I had before the switch. :tup:

Err, sorry, still fixing some settings and I accidentally turned us off for a few minutes. I'll leave it alone for now :pardon:

I don't think any of us has the right to complain, considering all the work you're putting into this over and above all the stuff you're going through in your real job. :tup: :flower:

Even if we had, what is there to complain about? Rachelbean is doing an excellent job. Compared to the massive fuckups in the IT world a glitch or two during the transition of this forum from one server to another does not even register.

Thank you :teef:

I think what I am going to do next is install the newest phpBB version. I will leave this board alone and just install a second version to play with, see if I can get the modifications we have on this version working on the next. I know there are issues with it so it might take a little time, but from what I've read it is easier to modify search settings on the newer boards so that would be a bonus.

Hold the phone. Forced refresh brought up my most recent (i.e. new) avatar. But still got old rank. I don't really care that much. I am still borked, so it fits. :teef:

Mine was still showing an old one - but that could have been in my cache. Either way, I was able to upload one. And the PM screen is SOOOOOOOOOO fast to load now! Ive got several thousand PMs and it used to take a good 10-20 secs to load - now it's there in a blink. :biggrin:

Okay rev, thanks. I'll do an update of the ranks table shortly, and hopefully that will fix it!

I'm still getting the URL in the address bar. I can get here using "rationalia.com" but it forces a sign-in every time and changes to the URL.

Have you tried emptying your cache/cookies again. Oh, and is it staying as rationalia.com or forwarding to the i.p. :ask:

Cleared cache and cookies. It redirects to the IP and forces me to sign in - the autofill works but the "sign me in every time" box won't remain checked.
