FYI: The server is going to be worked on between 6 and 7 a.m. EDT on Wednesday morning. The site may be down for a while during that time.

Carry on! :-)

Who here has nearly had an embolism after spending time constructing a post only to lose it? My son turned me on to Lazarus, and it works wonderfully to save your work. The icon that shows up in the corner of your window is an Ankh. Click it and voila, what you've posted appears in a list.

Thanks for the tip, Clemsy - that used to happen a lot, but not lately to me - looks like a nice extension, but I use the Chrome browser & I don't think it works there.

Greetings you Mythtical types!

Yesterday the boards were spammed something fierce! Took me quite a while to delete all the posts (must have been 30 or 40) involved. I also banned the username and ip address of the Evil One.

Thanks to James who brought it to my attention before the infection spread any further. Please notify me via private message if you notice anything untoward being posted. Those get forwarded directly to my email so I'll respond as quickly as may be.

Thanks!

So, okay, now I feel guilty for not being here to help out, Clemsy, with cleaning up the board... Yikes! All's gone well since then, I hope. Next time please contact me to help out if I've been away for a bit. Okay?

Carmela brought my attention to the glitches currently plaguing the board. I've sent word along and hopefully any issues can be resolved soon.

I hope this posts!

Cheers,
Clemsy

When you post, you are problably getting this message:

Could not insert new word matches

DEBUG MODE

INSERT INTO forum_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) SELECT 93571, word_id, 0 FROM forum_search_wordlist WHERE word_text IN ('test')

Line : 251
File : functions_search.php

However, your post does go through even though it doesn't show up with a new post indication in the right hand column.

Is there any word from the Admin as to if and when this forum might get fixed?
