I MESSED UP

I am creating a new forum for a web broadcast I am working on and I lost some files for here when I was copying stuff.

Hopefully I will be able to get it back in order.

We are still missing a bunch of stuff. I noticed the edit feature for the post is not there.

Guys please report any other problems you see or are experiencing here.

Congratulations, John for being involved in a project like that.

There is one thing I have noticed: I used to receive email notifications of pm-s. And now I did not get those notifications. I have checked my spam folder as well. Maybe it has nothing to do with the changes. Does anyone has the same problem?

Yes I have the same problem. But when I log in in the forum I see a notification.

Me too but for a long time before I messed up.

Are you guys sure it coincides with the mess-up or was it before.

I have looked into this a lot for myself because I not longer get the notifications of a new registration.

I may hire someone to look at it.

This problem is going on for few weeks for me.

I have checked my email and I got the last email notification at the 20th of march. The first pm I have not received a notification of is from 7th of April.

I hope this information helps a bit.

Indeed, it is for quite some time now, not a big deal for me though, take your time John :)

What bothers me more (not a lot though) is not having the quote button and the button to adjust your post. But again, no hurries :)

Yeah, the edit and delete buttons are gone too.

I contacted the a guy who has helped me before but he has not responded. He did read the message.

I'll have to do this when I get back from vacation because I need to be able to have a block of time to concentrate. It can go really bad before it gets good so I have to make sure that when I tackle fixing this I can stay at it for 8 hours or so.

I just refreshed the templates and the images but to no avail. I think I have an idea where to look.

Behind all this is, it is pretty complicated.

And what really gets confusing is I use a different platform for the website so going back and forth is hard.

BUT

BREAKING NEWS

The quote button is there. I just used it. Just click up where you remember it to be and it should work.

Yes it's like magic! An invisible quote button! :)

When you move your mouse around, it will turn into a gloved hand with a pointer finger when there is something that is clickable. It will be a pointer arrow when there is nothing.

You are right Rob, this is a Magical Feature for a Magical Forum.

John, everything looks fine except the missing buttons and email notification. The invisible button could be a cool feature for the "Members Only" topics ;) Hope you enjoy the vacation !! Oww....it will be a crazy magic time at London right ? Have fun guys !! ;)

Finally, buttons are back.

I got help at the phpbb support forum.

I would never have figured that out.

I will ask about the pm notification next.

Is there anything else that I should look into.

John,

This is strange. If I open the Forum through my mobile phone, the "Quote" and "Report this Post" buttons appear but not if I open it from my laptop. Hmmmm..... :roll: :roll: I`m not sure if It`s only me or the other member have the same experience. :?
