I'm having some problems seeing the new posts. For example on the fic board the newest post is from 9:33 AM and it wont refresh it. The most recent post shows up on the main board, but most forums seem to be stuck at random time. Help please!!!

Hi,

Well, I seems that I didn't catch all the dates when I was fixing the post date error. Here is what happened.

The server (which is used to get the date when you post) was set ahead a day. Soo... all the posts were coming up in the future. That's not to bad, but... In order for me to fix this I had to go and change all the dates on the posts that are currently in the database back a day, other wise you get posts showing up out of order, ( that's what happened on Friday, my Opps!!! ).

So this morning, I went and changed all the posts, and then set the server to the correct day. Only I didn't realized at the time but there are TWO not one date fields, One is when the post was created (which I fixed) and one is when it was last modified (which I missed) and the modified one is the one used to move the thread to the top of the list. So in affect, you weren't getting to the top of the thread cause there were other posts with future dates the "bumped" you down.

Ok so anyways, I have fixed about 90% of the dates. There are going to be a few I missed , but don't worry in a day or so it should all sort itself out as we pass the dates that are currently messing up the forums.

Otherwise if you notice that a certain thread has posts out of order or it not going to the top of the list. Let me know and I will take a look at it.

Thanks for reporting BTW. I hadn't noticed that until you mentioned.

Hi Rilawik,

Firstly I TOTALLY LOVE this new board with all its new features, it just gets better and better ( that were possible). Thank you all soooo much.
I've just read your feedback to Fresa Chica and I think that's what's happenning to my fic 'WITHOUT YOU' which is stuck on Pg6 of the board. Also I am getting up a security message, have I do something wrong? I've posted lots of parts today and it hasn't moved at all, now I can't even post anything on it.
PLEASE help because its just now starting to drive me insane.
Thanx again.
Keep up the excellent work that you all do for all of us.
