dBoard 3.0 Beta Release Today

Part 1:The error documented in message 46 seems to be the same problem that was happening when I tried to post with my "signature" displayed. The same message would post fine if the "signature" box was unchecked. That problem seems to be fixed now.BUT, I now note that the links in the "signature" are all still in the old format. Note that theReport Technical Problems Here: No. 1

Considerations of topic promotions from the "Proposed New Topics" forumlinks all result in getting to the " Welcome, Visitors! (No new topics or messages) Windsor castle" topic.Part 2:Yesterday I did an ID merger and a suspension of davidmabus11. The "davidmabus" ID was the new registration and the ID kept as active. When I did the merger, I kept all the attributes of the new registration EXCEPT that I set the status to that of the older ID.At the older topic things seem OK - He is designated a "suspended junior member". But at the newer topic he is listed as "unregistered".I did the ID merger first, then the suspension.Part 3:Also, please see the 7/9/09 changes - How do you link to a specific message? topic. I thought that it was a question that deserved its own topic.AdminnemooseusEdited by Adminnemooseus, : Added the "I did the ID merger first, then the suspension."Edited by Admin, : Fix signature.

I'm just promoted two PNTs. At the promoted versions it is listed that the topics were copied from the forum that is actually the destination forum, with the link being that destination forum.The source topic information is correct.See:
EvC Forum: The dilution of the effects of genetic mutation.
EvC Forum: SpiritualityAdminnemooseus

I haven't yet checked if this date is also showing up elsewhere.AdminnemooseusAdded by edit: OK - That date seems to be everywhere. Using Firefox.Added by edit 2: Originally my subtitle was At "Board Central" all registrations are showing up as 8/11/09. I believe it originally posted as such, but when edited, got truncated as "At " (At with a space after).Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.

I did a subtitle double quotes edit test here. Please see that message. Registration dates are being displayed as the current day everywhere - At "board central", at the members list, at the individual message pages.Adminnemooseus

I just noticed that all the message posting dates and times are also being set to the current date and time, except the time is am instead of pm.Posting this message 8/11/09 at about 9:38 pm eastern time.Adminnemooseus

I don't know if you thought you had this fixed, but the problem persists.Subtitles with "double quote" marks post correctly, but if you do a message edit the subtitle is truncated at and including the first ". Such can be immediately fixed, or can be fixed via another edit.Adminnemooseus

I've encountered this sort of problem in various places, most recently in this message. The first link in that message is: When I first viewed that message, the link in question was displayed as ordinary text - It was not a clickable hyperlink. The second link was correctly functioning as a hyperlink.After I added my moderation message at the end and submitted the edit, the link in question became a clickable hyperlink.Adminnemooseus

The following - The first 2 are the now closed PNT versions, the 3rd is a promoted version:EvC Forum: Is DNA the TOTAL Instruction Set for a Lifeform?
EvC Forum: Creationists think Evolutionists think like Creationists.
EvC Forum: Help in teaching 11-12 Year olds (RE (Religious Education) in the UK)All have that "Thread Name Not Available" show up, without any link to the related topic. This seems to be a brand new happening.Adminnemooseus

evcforum.net forums are grouped into "Board Administration", "Science Forums", "Social and Religious Issues", "Side Orders", "Archives", and "Retired Forums".I have just noticed that at the individual topic pages, the hierarchy is ALWAYS listed as EvC Forum -> All Forums -> Science Forums -> "forum" -> "topic", regardless of what forum group the topic is actually in.I also note (as I am creating this message) that the hierarchy is listed correctly ("Board Administration" and not "Science Forums").I'll bet that this quirk goes back many years.Adminnemooseus

Content deleted - Found and fixed problem.AdminnemooseusEdited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.

I just put up 3 "off-topic" banners. The 1st and 3rd worked correctly but the second behaved oddly.1) When I did a preview, the preview form of the message came up but the edit field box of the page never came up. I had to "back" with the browser get to a page with the edit field box.2) The "edited by" message was attributed to Flyer, with no date and time stamp. When I tried doing a second edit, the first "edited by" message was overwritten by the new message, and it was still attributed to Flyer, without date and time stamp. Likewise for a third edit by me. Message in question.AdminnemooseusUsing current or close to current version of Firefox and Windows 7 (Woo-hoo - New computer!).ADDED BY EDIT: Now Iblis has overwritten my "edited by" message.Edited by Adminnemooseus, : See above.

It only has purpose if you have linked ID's, which the various admins do have. Clicking on the "swap" toggles the log in ID from one ID to the other. As I understand it, the only place this is really needed is dealing with personal messages. To do or read a Minnemooseus PM, I must be logged in as Minnemooseus. Likewise for Adminnemooseus PM's.For replying to forum messages, the logged in ID is the default, but the alternate ID can be chosen at the message creation page. An exception is an admin replying to a "Proposed New Topics" message, where the non-admin ID is blocked and the default is the admin ID.What happens when a non-admin clicks on "swap"? I don't know - Is it even a clickable link for non-admins?Adminnemooseus

We used to be able to click on the "topic mood" icon and get a topic message index page. You promised that such would return.Call it a "bump".Adminnemooseus

Words can't begin to express my excitement. I guess I'll have to throw a celebration party. PM me if you are in traveling distance of Duluth, Minnesota - Send money and I'll try to book Oni to entertain.Adminnemooseus

I think I mostly consult the topic message index to help to try to make administrative sense of what is happening in the topic.It is also potentially useful to find special messages that you think you know are somewhere in the topic. Prepare for a new onslaught of Adminnemooseus complaints about worthless topic subtitles.Adminnemooseus
