After some dicy moments the FTBCMB is back online:banana: . Thanks for your patience
wo0t! This calls for a celebration!
Glad here as well... Although I can only seem to post using the quote function...
I see that everyones picture signatures disappeared. Atleast for me.
What's up with that?
Woah, its also different when you go in to edit your post.
Fear change...
Oh, I see, click on "go advanced" and its like it used to be.
I wonder what kind of other surprises there will be due to the upgrade.
Yea I Think The Site Was Down Last Night So Something Happend
okayy they're there now. :flame:
Yet another setting that was set to default when the upgrade took place. It's fixed now.
Y'all don't realize how close we came to losing the whole shebang. The server crashed during the upgrade and resulted in an incomplete installation. I couldn't complete the installation due to a server memory issue and couldn't undo and go back to the old version. Needless to say I was freaking out...
Gonna merge this with the "we're back" thread so people can report other problems
I emailed Eric becuase he was the only persons email I had.:hick: I was getting scared I was so worried! :rollin:
Oh and we now have two ways to get the same smilies.
i was skerd... :(
I'm not digging the pic attachments. No pic just a link that opens another window.
Noticing that some of the attached .jpg images are showing up as the name of the image where you click on the name to view as opposed to the image showing up in the thread.
example-- Baxo's thread in User Rides

Hey you can't do that thing anymore when you could say like Baxo's thread Here where here would be the link. You can only put in the address.
or rather, IMpatience, I was checking every 30 minutes hehe
same here ...... I fear change
how do i post pics and smileys now??????????????
Hmmmm
These are 2 sepatrate files that should appear much bigger.......What the dealy-o?
Yet another setting that had to be changed. Should be fixed now. Keep posting problems you experience, I'll try to get 'em fixed
i guess someone needs to hold my hand. i cant get the image thing in the tool bar to open. nor figure out why i cannot post smileys unless i rember what makes the like this :) :(
wow I didnt notice exept all of the things on the quick reply look funny. Man I need to get another desk job.
I dunno why you're having trouble - The image box opens for me, and the smilies are right there to the right of the text box, just like always:
The hyperlinking still works, but differently. First you type the text you want to display (such as Click here), then you highlight it, then you click on the hyperlink button, then you enter your URL. Example: Click here (http://"http://www.foxthundercats.com/")
I see said the blind man... Thank you!
Wheh...and to think I missed all the fun. ;)
Lucky you - it was truly white knuckle for almost a full day. I didn't know how I was gonna break the news that everything was gone - luckily in the end I didn't have to :hick:
Sounds like a good time to make a backup.. :p
loseing everything would have deffinetly sucked.
yeah the whole panel on my end doesn't work not even the smileys unless i type them manually like this : ) or : ( i dunno what is wrong .. non of the stuff up top will click or anything . sorry for all the questions
I dunno what the problem is - nobody else seems to be having them. Try clearing your cookies and cache

I did make a backup before doing the upgrade, but the server problems were preventiing me from uploading it - or rather, the problems were preventing the backup software from overwriting newer files of the same name. I could have just wiped the web space clean and tried the backup, but I was very reluctant to try it - wiping it and then finding out the memory problems created a corrupt backup would have truly sucked. Had the vBulletin support guy not diagnosed and then the host not fixed the memory problem I likely would have tried that one next. Definitely last resort stuff...
The funny thing is that the problem only manifested itself during the upgrade. Lord knows how long the problem was there, but the upgrade script exposed it. On the second-to-last step of the script.
done and still no worky... I'll figure it out i think : )
Do you have "Disable Smilies" UN-checked in the option window down below?
Do you have Java (or Javascript) enabled on your system?
Manage Attachments works in Mozilla but not in Firefox... *shrug*
yeah, it is unchecked
and i dunno about the java? would that make it not work?
Thanks for working so hard to get it going again, much appreciated. Jason.
I don't remember this dropdown before the upgrade. Now we have two ways to use smilies?
Works for me (I use Firefox 1.07 or 1.70 or whatever the latest is exclusively)...
the new post button doesnt bring up the posts like it did.
Could you please check out the login timeout setting, i've gotten kicked off a couple times now while trying to type out a a post. Thanks!
New Posts indicators in the lastest Firefox. I will give it a try in IE but once I read one post, everything shows as read. how can i tell when things have been updated? :P
Odd, I just checked the setting and it says to mark posts as read after 900 seconds (15) minutes of inactivity. That's the same setting as before. The new post indicators seem to work for me with Firefox...
On another note, I have enabled user reputations. I'm not exactly sure what this means, but I've seen it in other forums, so it must be good, right? :D
Did the file attachment size change? I can't attach anything bigger than a 19kb file. :(
The sizes did not change. What kind of file were you trying to upload? If you look at the "Manage attachments" window the file size limits for each type of file are shown.
oh... my bad... :toilet:
it was a gif.
What the heck is "rep Power"?
I think i'm getting to around the realm of 5 to ten minutes till it boots me off. I know i'm a slow typer and rant for a while in most of my posts, but I know it doesn't take me that long to type stuff out :dunno: .
i made a thread asking the same thing
Question: Would it be possible to reset the timer that marks all of the messages as being read back to an hour instead of the 10 minutes it's set at now?
I've just set it to 1800 seconds (30 minutes) - when I tried to enter 3600 seconds it said that was too long
Cool. Thanks Carm.
