Weird Glitch - I'm invisible

[Brian Cruz]

Is something going on with the guy who supports forum runner? I've been patiently waiting two weeks to get any significant help in troubleshooting an issue. This is very disappointing and I have to seriously...

[Brian Cruz]

On the forum home index where it lists the last post and the forum display where it lists the threads in order of last post. I can't get my posts to show as the last post unless I either post through...

[Brian Cruz]

Any thoughts on what the issue might be?

More info:
I can post from forumrunner on my iPhone and those posts will show up in all the indexes properly.

Then I tried something...

[Brian Cruz]

Just more findings. Nothing really different between my info between the live and test database in the user table. The user table is correctly logging my last post ID.

[Brian Cruz]

Yeah. This is an odd one. Definitely not something that happened when I upgraded the test forum. I looked directly at the database and can't see any major differences between my account and anyone else...

[Brian Cruz]

I turned them all off and switched myself to the default vB4 style. Nada. It's so weird being a ghost! Oh, I show up properly on the Who's Online listing too.

[Brian Cruz]

Kind of. I recently upgraded to vB4. Somehow during that process my own posts stopped showing up in the forum and thread listings, but show up fine when you're actually reading the thread. Album and Blog...

[Brian Cruz]

Hi Trevor,
The vB4 forum is not "live". I have it password protected and I don't want to post a publicly accessible link to it. Would it be okay if I PM it to you?

[Brian Cruz]

Hi there,
I'm working with 4.1.2. I added a forum block that lists the latest CMS articles. It's not rendering the HTML in the block at all. So, anything with quotes or ampersands looks awkward....

[Brian Cruz]

We're migrating the site to a new server and it's been nothing short of a nightmare. Currently trying to restore a large vBulletin database and having it hang at a certain point in the restore. Was hoping...

[Brian Cruz]

I pulled the files and there was no noticeable effect.

Edit: Oh. There seems to be a difference between accessing the admin panel through the subdomain and the full-length URL. (forums.toonzone.net/...

[Brian Cruz]

Sure thing. Results attached....

[Brian Cruz]

Hi Jake,
Is there anything else it might be? We're not running a lighttpd server and saw no different when I disabled gzip, both in the vB options and in WHM (as a test).

[Brian Cruz]

Recently upgraded and then ran into an issue with content duplication in both frames of the admin panel. I tried disabling all plugins and products. I have no idea what could be causing it past that....

[Brian Cruz]

FYI, I was eventually able to copy the database over. Rather than doing a MySQL dump, I went to /var/lib/mysql and created a .tar archive of my forum's database. I copied the .tar file over to the new...

[Brian Cruz]

How do you do routine backups? I can't empty the search index each time because it takes days to rebuild. Is there a way to backup half of the dastabase to one file, and half to another, and then restore...

[Brian Cruz]

I need to move my forum to another server but I ran into a problem. Here's what I did step-by-step:

1) Did a dump in SSH using:

mysqldump --opt -uusername -ppassword database_name

...

[Brian Cruz]

Thanks, that worked! The number doesn't use a comma like the others in the statictics section, but it's not too big a deal....

[Brian Cruz]

On my forum I regularly delete members who are no longer active (not logged in for a year). I'd like to change the statistics section of the forum home to include both "Total Registrations"...
