i concur +1

is there any chance that after the major things are fixed that we might have open discussion and suggestions on color themes?

It is on the list and there will be several more options coming once the nuts and bolts forum issues are squared away.

In the "Response on threads" thread, if the users' "Number of Posts to Show Per Page:" is set to Forum Default, the user cannot proceed beyond page 5153. I know this is one of your more favorite threads... :) but it could at some point in the future become an issue with other threads. True, maybe a couple centuries in the future, but still thought you might like to laugh at us... er... take a look at it some time.

Current workaround seems to be changing the setting from Forum Default to 30. I did not test to see if the smaller values would allow passage into the higher reaches.

1 user has reported that a setting of 40 works as well.

I'm guessing this is the place to report this. I'm pretty tired, and didn't dig around for a bug-report form.

When I try to go to the Eastmall forum I get:

DATA CONNECTIVITY ERROR

THE PAGE CONTAINS TOO MANY SERVER REDIRECTS

and:

Web page not available The Web page at http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/404.shtml might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address.

If I go directly to a thread, i can go thread to thread.

n.b. I am using my HTC HERO (droid).

For some reason even though i log in and hit 'remember me' i keep getting Logged out, also i've been using Blackend but after i get logged out it reverts to the default style even when i sign back in. Midnight in the UK, i'll see how it is tomorrow.

Loving the new home anyway, thanks to all.

Ditto to this!

Site had been working quite well using blackend and kept me logged in since the beginning. Went out for a few hours today and when I came back, the scenario above started.

I'm sure this is temporary, but thought I'd let you know anyway.

Understanding that visual aspects of the forums are low priority, but here's one such request.

Looking at these icons (and their bigger sisters and brothers),

please make it possible for higher contrast icons to be selectable. The pastel hues on white backgrounds make these a blur for my old eyes.

Thanks for any consideration!

alex, the pm problems are still alive and well
this is what's showing up on top of my page, hope this helps

Warning: apc_store() [function.apc-store]: Potential cache slam averted for key 'routes' in [path]/includes/class_datastore.php on line 462

This is showing up at the top of my page, above the banner IDK if it helps.

Warning: apc_store() [function.apc-store]: Potential cache slam averted for key 'vbseo_storage' in [path]/vbseo/includes/functions_vbseo_cache.php on line 137

The cache slams are happening, AFAICT, without regard for what sections of the forum are in use. I'm guessing the server log is full of them right now. Appears to be a problem with the Search Engine Optimization URL plugin, which would affect close to the entire site.

I've moved the entire infrastructure of the forums to something new. Should help keep the load time down and availability up. You've just happened to notice the tiny bumps in the while we were moving, should be completely gone now. Thank you for reporting :)

Don't know if this has been mentioned or not....I never, ever, log out, but left for a while tonight and came back and was logged out. When I use the "go to first new post" button to pick up where I left off in a thread, it takes me to post #1, not where I left off! Arrrrr.... Will this be fixed, or is it something I'm just gonna have to live with?

Thanks ECF for all the hard work you all do to make this the BEST forum!!!
