View Full Version : Forum updates (software)
We've been working hard behind the scenes on moving the LegacyGT.com site over to the latest vBulletin Forum software. The new features and security fixes are greatly appreciated and I hope all the folks who come here enjoy the new options. Please report any 'issues' that I may have missed to this thread. Current known issues:
Reviews doesn't quite work well (to be updated soon).
If your vBGarage is "missing" please reply here.
If you are seeing "oddities", flush your cache.
Enjoy!

Replying to threads now is a bit addictive. Try editing too. ;)

Switch Editor?
There are three new buttons on the right, one for spell check, one to make the editing window longer or shorter and a third that says switch editor but im not quite sure what it switches, on my browser the font that im typing in gets a lil bigger and the background changes to white
Ah, must be IE only, don't see it in Safari or Firefox.

It's there in Firefox. It lets you see what the message looks like (no text formatting code) as you are typing it up.
But, I don't see the spell check button.
Oops, my Firefox is 1.0PR! Bad admin!

Reading through posts it’s hard to decipher the new posts from the old posts. In the old version the new posts would be a slightly different color. Anyway to bring this view back? anyway keep up the good work!

It still works Rich, it just all the posts got reset after the install of the new software :)
No it was different, he's right. I found the issue and fixed it. Easier on the eyes for sure.

No it doesn’t (at least for me) maybe I’m explaining it wrong…if there is a thread with say 50 posts I read it then go away for 2 hrs and come back and read the thread again (say its at 56 posts now) there is no was to determine where the 6 new posts, from the past 2 hrs start (yes I can count up 6 in this case, but normally the posts have a tan color)

I'm really lost now, is this in thread view or in the actual posts?

If I go into read a thread, the new post would show up with a tan accent around the boarder (distinguishing them as new since the last time I was logged in), now they don’t.

None of the editing buttons work, either in Quick or Advanced mode (ie buttons to bold text... insert image.. etc, none work! :( ) Using Firefox 1.0.7 *sniff* And it looks like the editor is taking things in as straight HTML and not parsing it, ie I enter new lines but after posting it's all in one line.
Probably a cache issue starlabs.
Sorry Rich I don't see what you're talking about. Maybe you could take a screenshot and illustrate it. I don't recall any tan border anywhere on the site and have both templates old and new still running, and can't find what you are referring to. It is also possible the border did not show on Safari but I don't own a PC to look. Does anyone else see this?

Did it allow you to upload before from a URL?
I might have attached the file itself. Lemme try that
nope....same error:
Unable to save avatar
odd, since it's a profile pic and not the avatar. It's an animated gif....worked fine earlier this week.
one step further on url, but then:
Upload of file failed
yet, it still shows up fine (edit - loses animated feature):

Well my guess is because it's bigger than your allocated spot (240x240) that its scaling it and dropping the animation.

When I try and access legacygt.com it auto-redirects me to http://legacygt.com/profile.php which then pops up with a 404 not found error.
I think this is a vbulletin issue because it happens on other forums that use the same software.
I was using firefox 0.8, just updated to 1.07 and same thing happens.
Cleared cache as well and no help.
EDIT: Ohh yeah, this only happens the first time I try and access the website. So if I hit my legacygt bookmark, it redirects me to the profile.php page, if I hit my legacygt bookmark again, I go to the legacygt homepage without being redirected.
Well let us know what Browser/OS you are using and we can give you a hand. I have heard that people using proxies might also have an issue until they reload the proxies' cache (aol & peeps at work).

Interesting find, It's a bug in vBAdvanced that I just applied a fix for. Please report back if it still fails.

Not all the times, but some of the time when I hit my link to LegacyGT.com it goes to the page not found. Even after refreshing the same things happens. The only way to get it up is to hit the link again from the drop down links on the right.
I am using the latest internet explorer.
Just today or anytime? What page is "page not found"? Generic Apache page or vBulliten like?

I was using explorer on a work machine and I am not sure how they have the network set up? It seems to be running fine on my machine at home with both explorer and firefox.
If you are at work and they use a proxy server to help save bandwidth, then certain files (javascripts) may be cached on their server causing the issue. It should work itself out or you may need to kick the IS team.

When I enter my username and password, I get a "Wellcome" page and then I am redirected to the homepage, but still unlogged... If I enter it again, the same thing happens on and on.
The first time I log in, everything is ok, but the problem is back as soon as I come back the second time. Reseting the browser solve this problem, but is definitly annoying!
Logging in ok with IE (mac) but get a VERY narrow page (about half the width of my screen).
Times are tough!
Hope this will be fixed soon!

First: Why are you using a MAC?

Third: Why are you using a MAC?
1. Because I love it for its simplicity, design and reliability (usually...)
2. A page that states "Thank you for logging in, DrGT. Click here if your browser does not automatically redirect you". Then I go back to the homepage, unlogged. I was not getting that "wellcome" page before.
3. Because I always find it a bit strange to hit a "Start" button to shoot down a computer ;) BTW, I have to do it often (restart) when I use a pc...
4. Lets find a way to fix these bugs .... and not start ANOTHER Mac / PC argument. You know it will never end!

And just to be clear, I'm not bitchin. I can live with it, just thought you'd want to know.

If you could, try out the default VBulletin style for me and see if you have better results. Also I'd be curious if the any of the other forums you read run VB 3.5, since its only a month old.

Plus Bill Gates is not my favorite friend ;)
With Safari, I am able to access to homepage using http://www.legacygt.com/
but not to get logged in successfully.
As I explained before, I am recognized by the site as DrGT, but I am always redirect back to the homepage but still unlogged.
If I reset Safari, everything is ok for my first visit, but I get the same problem as soon as I get back.
My cookies are unabled, I emptied my cache and reset a fewetimes.
I get the same behavior from Netscape mac 7.1 and Firefox mac 1.0.6.
Could it be because of my Airport settings???
I installed an Airport base around the same time you updated the site.

I get the same behavior from Netscape mac 7.1 and Firefox mac 1.0.6.
Did you read my post? Update FF to 1.0.7...
Did you read my post? Update FF to 1.0.7...
I did, but I was too busy bathing the kids for an upgrade sooner this evening ;)
I have now upgraded to FF 1.0.7. Cookies are activated, cache has been emptied.
Still the same problem :(
I will call tech support at Apple tomorow to see if my Airport base has something to do with this.
Thanks for your efforts everybody!
I've made a minor adjustment to the cookie settings and it should hopefully fix it for the few users that were having issues. Of course they may need to reset cookies one more time.
Still working on the IE problem, the VB Default theme will work for you if you want to use IE, meanwhile I'll keep hunting down the issue with our theme.

Bu11dogg2 has disabled reputation. ( i assume thats bad, tide do you hate me?)
click on user profile its in the top right, a little green or grey dot, black in my case
I was just toying with it. I have my eye on a "Trader Rating" system once it gets ported over to VB 3.5, which may be a few weeks or months.

Try switching skin to VB Default.
PS - Tide, no offense, but I like the VBDefault better overall.

No offense here on the skins, I'm working on adding 1-2 more giving members a nice set of options. I just have to test that they all work with the homepage/garage/reviews etc first.

Status on vbGarage? I can view it but can't edit my garage stuff - say I gots no permission :(
BTW I'm liking the upgrades so far! Vewwwy nice! :D
Tide,
update it so we can see the comments people leave when they give out POS/NEG rep points. I know it can be done, it should show up under User CP.
I haven't had anyone say vBGarage wasn't working...
I'm not doing rep Bu11dogg2... I was just playing with it.
I fixed a permissions error that was only effecting donators. BTW, regular members get 1 garage with 10 pics, donators get 4 garages with 12 pics each.

all kins offer the same options? correct? what is the difference between forum default an v3.0?
All the same features, just a different look.
LegacyGT.com v3.0 (same look as older site)
VBulletin Default (how VB comes from the factory)
After Dark (a darker theme)

VB comes from a factory? :lol:
I'm liking the After Dark, but still can't make myself switch full time from 3.0
I'm currently using After Dark... only the avatars bug me. but I prefer the rest of it.
It's come to my attention that at least one user's vBGarage did not make it through the update. As a good admin I do have backups and I was able to restore that garage. If anyone has a missing garage please reply here.

Having problems with Firefox on Linux (haven't tested Firefox on Windows, yet). Clicking on the "Post Quick Reply" or "Go Advanced" button pops up a window that says "You must enter a title / subject". I had to post this through Mozilla on Linux.

1) i can upload avatar but it wont show under my username 2) whenever i right-click & save someone's avatar the extension defaults to .gif (or .jpg) no matter what format it actually uses.
there has been (as in a few months) a bug but i am too lazy to type.
Added Trader Ratings.
can you elaborate for us n00bs on exactly how this will work?
click on a user's name or view their profile. A link to "iTrader" is there. It's an eBay like trader rating system.
thanks Tide!!!!!
never mind....
search n00b search...

Does the new version not give read reseats for PM’s? 11/10 (the exact day of the upgrade) I stopped receiving them. Anyway we can bring this back?
Also anyone know if Paul from AVO checks the boards any more?
It does, it's just not forced each time now, you have to select it.

He does, but has been very slow/bad about response lately. He had a birthday earlier this week and took some time off for that and for the holidays, so that might explain it.
