Just a heads up, I'll be upgrading the site to SMF 2.1 RC3 later tonight. This version includes numerous bug fixes as well as some enhancements related to GDPR (built-in support for a privacy policy, the ability to download your profile data and some other things). The upgrade shouldn't take more than 10 minutes or so, but I thought I'd give everyone a heads up anyway.

Thank you for looking out for us...

Upgrade is complete. Let me know if you run into any issues.

Issue number one...when i click my curser on my avatar name main page to the left, under " user " says " page isn't working "

Issue number two...when i click on my name at top of left of page next to messages and alerts, says " loading " then gets stuck on " loading "...Cant get into my profile...

Both were working fine before the update...

Haven't checked anything else yet as it is 7.am here in UK, i have only just arrived in here...

Oh also just noticed when i click on who is " online " members names bottom of page, says " page is not working "

Sorry but dont like all these " updates " when things were working fine in the first place...

Okay, site will take my posts, but insists on going back to page one when I reply. I do not have access to my account settings and the logout button at the top of the page is missing.

Yes that is what is missing, my " account settings "

...plus show own posts under user..

Profile-related issues have been fixed. I had to manually edit one of the files to add the country flags back and forgot a } in one spot.

It's in your user menu now, though I can put it back at the top if you'd prefer.

Michael ( Oldiesmann ) yes now seems all as is meant to be, thank you... I of course will be one of the first to let you know if i spot anything else that is out of place..

Still don't see the log-out, Michael. This is what I see under user

@MarsGal  If you look top left of page, click your username and there will be a dropdown menu containing the logout. 

You cannot view this attachment.

Michael, whenever I complete and post a message, I end up anywhere across the board and cannot get to where I posted the message. I've gone to 2016, 2018, or back at the homepage. Anywhere but where I posted the message.

I'll have to look into that. I was under the impression that the issue with it not redirecting to the proper place was fixed.

Gosh, way up at the tippy-top. Never noticed it. Thanks!

Michael, this morning I posted in Paintshop Pro. When I clicked post, I landed on page one, August 27th. I can see where I posted on the forum page. Upon clicking on that, I ended up on page one, September 2016.

When I clicked post on today's post to you, I ended here instead of seeing my post today.

I believe the problem may lie in the upper left Unread Posts and Updated Topics and making sure both are clicked to show plus signs rather than minus signs. I'll see if it has any effect on this post.

No, still returning to different times instead of where I'm posting.

Testing.  Just to see where I end up. 

Well I ended up at this post, so replying to myself.

@angelface555  Just to be sure, you have this set in your profile,

"Return to topics after posting by default."

Click your user name top left of screen.  In the dropdown menu choose Look and Feel, then make sure the box next to "Return to topics after posting by default." is ticked and click save at bottom.

Still having trouble with the posting settings. I have both return to topics and show most recent post at top checked in my profiles and I tried the plus positive beside Updated Topics. Nothing works. What I did find is that if I click on the oldest post page number than back to post page 1, I can see my post. So, for now, that is my workaround to the problem.

Testing

Think this is where the bug arises.  @MarsGal  Could you please revert that setting so the latest post show at bottom and see if you end up in the right place please.

No lurk, it does exactly what it is supposed to with the "newest post on top" checked off. Checking the box does allow for my post to show on top, but only if I go to another page (I just go to the last one) and then click back to page one. Then it is there. Extra step, a work around, but it is a little disconcerting to not see my post at first. I had thought I lost it the first few times it happened.

I get a little persistent because I know if I can't do something one way, I can usually find another way. At least my post doesn't disappear entirely. I also checked that it wasn't a browser problem. Right now I am using Ubuntu with Firefox as the browser. I also use Windows Edge on, of course, the Windows 10 machine.

Good morning MarsGal. You're lucky. I was unable to see my posts nor follow any links. The only seeming workaround was to change my name and open an entirely new account.

Bumping this to say I'll be upgrading to 2.1 RC4 later tonight. Shouldn't be too much trouble but as always I wanted to let everyone know in advance

Thank you for all you do for us.....and keeping us on the straight and narrow.

Site upgrade is mostly complete. Just need to reinstall the country flags and add the chat button back. Everything else should be working.

Country flags are back. Just need to add the chat button back

Chat button has returned as well. As always let me know if you run into any problems
