Give it a try in the test forum.

Yes, attachments can longer be linked with post ids, they need the attachment id.

To find the post containing the attachment, replace the links as follows:

Old link:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/attachment.php?s=&postid=number

New link:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/showpost.php?s=&p=number

I fixed that post.

Hi Tamarian:

When I change my view to "Threaded" or "Hybrid", I get the following message:
A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?

I'm using IE 6.0. Here's the link to my journal where it's happening. http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthread.php?t=85589

I've also noticed that I'm getting Atkins pop-up screens all of a sudden. I just got another pop-up screen for a survey by OpinionMart. This has never happened before the new changes.

Thanks for all your hard work. The site's looking fabulous.

Wanda

I like that I can put my pointer over a thread and get the first few lines of it. I like the new version! Can we put gym log up there with journal at the top??? I did find it confusing replying to a PM though, took a few mins to figure it out.

me too. I'm getting Atkins pop ups and never got them before. They are quite annoying, though I am an akins follower

Any way to disengage this feature???

TIA, you're doing an awesome job with the site

and so far I'm loving the changes, except for the above

We have accepted to run the Atkins campaign to help with our server cost. However, this OpinionMart thing is by mistake, without our approval, and I have reported it to the ad agency BurstMedia. If it doesn't stop soon, we will be replacing agencies.

If you click on the survey, you'll find it's all about comparing Atkins to WW, SlimFast, etc. I filled it myself till the end, and they don't ask for emails or anything, just a diet survey, quite interesting too.

Forum searches are skewed.

From within a forum, if I use the "search this forum" box at the top, then my search results come up just fine, restricted to within that specific forum. However, when I use the "search this forum" box at the bottom .. I get results from the entire database. AND .. sometimes the results come back from earliest to most recent, but in other forums the results are listed from most recent first.
