As you have no doubt observed, we've changed forum software.... don't say you weren't warned - the post below this one warned you.
Not everything got transferred:
1. PMs - importing the PMs is a real pain, so we didn't (we will be looking at another way for you to get at your PM box once we iron out the wrinkles here)
2. Avatars - you need to reupload your avatar
3. Signatures - some signatures imported with extremely odd characteristics, please check yours and make sure it's not huge
4. Birthdays - some birthdays had the day & month switched over... for those of you born after the 12th of the month you will find you were born in Jalember (an imaginary month which shows as blank). It's worthwhile everyone checking their birthday.
It seems some posts & user accounts also didn't make it across in the transfer - if your account was one of those affected, please re-register with your previous details and let one of the moderation team know.
There are some other things that still need to be worked on (in no particular order):
1. Suspected missing posts
2. Missing users (know of 2 so far - sure to be more)
3. Tapatalk DONE - Tapatalk users need to re-add the forum
4.Chatroom done
5. Everyone defaulted to being "invisible" following the import (Go here and uncheck the box under "Privacy" to fix your own)
6. Smilies - the addition of the old custom smilies (shave, hungry... etc)
7.Language settings done
8.Skin done for now, new logo required
9. PM boxes registering as full when not (see below for a workaround)
10. Ability to view own posts from main forum screen
If you spot other stuff that's missing or not quite right - let us know.
