Ha. It had me confused too when I first tried it. I'm not sure of the purpose of the "Search multiple content types" option or the option of searching for a forum, given the small number of forums. Seems like we could do away with that.Quoting elixir (view post)

You're not dumb. vB has a habit of throwing 10,000 options at you when you're really only interested in like two. The search page is a good example of this. It also puts information (like rep info) in weird places (under "Settings"? WTH?).
Rule of thumb: Never blame yourself. Always blame the software.
Or number8.
Gotta admit I kind of miss those rep bars too.

Can we add "sort by rating"? in the film database sections? I liked that feature on the old site.
Ah yay.
You still can. "Thread Display Options" under the threads.

Yes but there is supposed to be a link at the top, next to Replies.
Nice job updating the ratings displays, 8 & E.

What's the upper threshold on reputation given per day? I just hit the limit for the first time on the new site -- "You've given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later." This seems to be a rolling limit, but I never know exactly what the hard number is.
Is there any way this limit can be raised? I like throwing out rep for the posts I enjoy, and having a ceiling on this seems, I dunno, weird.
Don't know what the cap is, but I agree a cap in a small community like this is unnecessary. I doubt very highly that posters will collude into giving each other massive rep to raise their score, and if they did, I doubt very highly anyone here would care.
I for one love having a huge rep number to give out. Its makes me feel like Santa Claus, only skinnier, without a beard, and with less hair. Oh and lacking reindeer, elf slave labor, a secret North Pole base....

This has nothing to do with anything, but I am positively fascinated with how each time someone hits "New Posts" the number at the end of the string in the URL goes up by one.
AFAIK, vB caches the terms of all searches, so that number increments by one anytime anyone does any search at all. If you use the search box or "Advanced Search" and then click "New Posts," you'll see the number increment each time.
Why it feels the need to do this is something of a mystery to me.
Yeah, searches are stored as a table in the database, so the searchid field (which is what you see at the end of the URL string) obviously increments as a new record is created. What this tells you is that we have already done 2559 searches. This includes every possible search on the site.
This allows you to archive your search terms, though not sure why you would need to. The parameters of the search file prevent you from seeing other searches though by simply changing the number at the end of the string. It will simply return no results.

Just curious: Has the "buddy list" feature been excised from this version of vBulletin?
The list still seems to exist somewhere in the database, but I can't find anywhere to edit or add to it on the front-end.
Isn't it the "Contacts" under Settings > Networking?

Aha! Thanks!
Is there any actual use to the buddy list?
For the Top Film's First Seen Thread, is it possible in vBulletin to either put a spoiler tag within a list or start a list at a number above 1?
I like that if I go to my profile page, I can just look at all the posts I've made. It's great because it allows me to just bask in how awesome and witty and interesting I am.
Err, Meg seems to be having a weird thing going on with his account... where his posts delete themselves and his avatar and sig are both deleted. Very weird.
So luckily we have a record of his posts, so they aren't gone forever. I went back and looked and it seems at the moment to only be affecting the posts he's made since the site integration. As I'm not a tech guy I have no idea what's going on but we've gotten an email notification so that's how I found out insanity is happening. Hopefully we'll figure this out asap.
I've had a couple of posts not show up after I submit them. Is anyone else having this problem? Not a big deal, just kind of wondering where they are going?
Something happened over the weekend - for some reason all of the links I have attached to images no longer work. In the music forum, I post pictures of albums with links, and this morning none of the links are there any more. When you click on the image, it just views the image.
I tried adding new links to the images, and they don't work.
I know why that is. It's because all images are now linked to the gallery feature. I'll see if it can't be tweaked to just affect certain images.
