Site Upgrade

[SirGeo]

Sorry about the downtime everyone.

Some critical security upgrades were needed so decided to upgrade the forum at the same time.

If you find anything od (which i'm sure you will) please let me know in this thread so I can fix it.

So far i've found a small bug with Firfox not letting you post sometimes.... trying to sort that out now.

Hello.... wondered what was going on?

[SirGeo]

I'm getting an error when using the search field at the top of the page. This is the response I'm getting:

"Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error."


I get no problems searching via the actual Search page. I only get the error using the individual "search" field that's at the top right of each page.

We apologise for any inconvenience

[SirGeo]

yeah having some style sheet problems..

The thread search is part of that.. working on a new style for us.. may take a few days....


Trying to put in a fix temporarily though....

[SirGeo]

Any other errors people getting?

The security token issue when using the top search field should be fixed (unless using it from the very front p[age) internally it should be fine though..

I hope :p

Updates this weekend are set to fix the front page issues and some of the weird sizes of the forum...

Steve, no errors but i notice the "moderated" spammer count is on the rise getting 3-5 a day now, way more than before, have the filtering rules been relaxed ?

[SirGeo]

Yeah some of the old software isn't compatible with the new forum.. I'll get that all sorted as well...


P.S. also comes with nice handy tool for the mods, all you have to do is click on the post, and from the pull down select Delete as Spam.. and it will automatically deletes all that users posts/threads and bans them.. ;)
