    Upgrade taking a while

    Sorry for the delays in getting the forum back online this morning. All the customizations I have done to the forum are making it a bit of a pain to do the upgrade.

    Some things may be out of whack until I finish but I wanted to bring it back online as soon as possible. It may go offline a few more times but it will be just a few minutes each time.

    No worries, Dan. Like they say, "quality takes time".
    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

If we have to do without our fix of OG for a while you do some check ups, I'm sure we can handle it................OMG, what if it doesn't come back on line????? What will I do then?????? How will I be able to swap clubs???????

    I like the little green arrows in the quoted parts that take you back to the original quoted post. Nice for when people only quote (or misquote) bits of a post.

    Dan I like that the notification email we get advising of a PM received in the forum now has the actual message instead of just a link to the message!

    Dan,

    Why do we get “Image hosted by Tripod” when we use the “Insert image” option when posting?

    Take a look at my post here: http://forum.golfresource.net/showth...632#post133632

    You will notice that Spackler has the same problem.

    Nothing at this end.

    Both images are hosted at Tripod. It looks like they are blocking them somehow. You even get that when you click the link to the image

    http://gohabsgo64.tripod.com/rougehabs.gif

    This works

    Hey, what’s the dif between loosing in the first round and always getting eliminated by the leafs or the Sabres. At least I saw my team win the cup a few times. Nothing that you Sens fans can relate to unless you are 120 years old.

    Lets try this image then:

    Any significance to the fact that you can't see who is in the chat room without actually entering it now?

    Dan,

    A question on the BCC option in the Private Messages. If someone uses this feature (the possibility scares me) and the person who receives and and replies, does the BCC receipent also receive a copy of the reply?

    I also like the new funcion of adding why you edited a particular post ! Hopefully people will use it

    Who's in chat will be back when I get to it. Many of these little things are plugins which need to be updated separately from the forum itself. iTrader and a bunch of admin stuf comes first.

    As for the BCC I have not seen any of the new features in action yet. Sill up to my neck in setup. Test it and let us know

    Understandable, thanks. Ive tried the 'upate' aand it is great. I am staying away from the BCC option, those things scare me as they are very dangerous!

    No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator


    Actually, it is any thread, not just that one.

    Still at it since 5:00 am. Of course now I am finally relaxing and watching TV and running scripts that take about 30 min each. The database is getting large.

    Some of this will not get done today. This took Waaay longer than usual. I have a few new goodies to install like a stats page for iTrader which will be nice for the ho's.

    Sweet, I just hope it doesn't crash when you input my stats.

    Yah, perhaps we should. The system is running flawlessly though (Knocking on my wood desk)

    The update scripts for the threads and forum indexes were fast. The search and similar thread indexes are stupid slow.
