Fixed... also I removed "Forum Problems" an "Testing" from the rolls, seems more in the spirit that those aren't considered "active".... let me know if that is a good or bad move.

Thanks!

Did the number of posts per page change? I usually try to get 50 to 100 posts per page if a board will allow it. I'm getting like 10 or 15 right now and that drives me nuts. I can't seem to find a setting for it. Is it not configurable on a user level? Is it set by admin and the setting is the same for all users?

Don't know that this is a forum problem just a funny thing happened a couple days ago. Went to login and got the message that I had exceeded my invalid password login attempts limit and I had to now login using captcha. Logged in successfully with captcha and haven't had this happen again.
Didn't know if it was caused by the upgrade or someone is just trying to login as me. No big deal. Just passing it along.

Been happening to me too. It's an attack, the best thing you can do is ensure your password is not simple or easy to guess. The "hackers" get 3 stabs before hitting captcha, so if your password is 'password', '12345' or 'WVvan' you're at risk. Otherwise it's happening all over (many other boards) and annoyance is the worst problem so far.

Yeah, I noticed that. They still work:

Just not displaying. I've been meaning an overhaul anyway.

what about the number of posts per page thing i mentioned above? Has it just always been that way and i didn't notice til now?

Either way, pretty smooth transition overall, i know that can be a pain. Nice job.
