Forum Feedback Good news and bad news all rolled into one

[Renegade]

And also conversations like IPB possible in VB ?

Not possible. Let us know if you find something.

Can you make a Generalized/Customized Notifs like, we get the post/message in Notifs itself? I think it will be very helpful!!

Not available as a feature anywhere on VB.

Now waiting for a DARK skin mate !!

Yeah in a week or so.

One Question..
How to change the tag Line..
Like "Priviliged USers" to something else.?
It was present in previous settings.. But not now..

User editable titles are something that needs to be enabled I think. Will do it later.

New Smiley's look awful

Yeah will make the changes later. Have not imported the old ones yet.

Some first glance views:

> 10 chars limitation is back. If you can do this to 5, it will be great.
> All previous thread subscription are gone.

Will lower that if not already done.
Will ask @Safin to check on subscriptions but not sure.

Why automerge is not there? :|

Also, if I disabe WYSIWYG editor, even smileys also don't appear in reply/edit box, which they should.

And whats that "468 * 60 adverstisement" on top left corner ? Is it because I'm using adblock ?
@Renegade

> Spoiler is not working.

> Using

tag is returning blank post .

> Page icon has changed into vB icon instead of TE icon after a hard refresh.

> It says I have 10 reputation points. How did that summed out ? I had 172 before transfer. Also, does like adds rep like before in IPB or same as older vB ?

Automerge should be working now. Lets test.
If you disable the editor then it wont show up. Thats what the concept is.
Yes its an ad slot.
Will add that tag.
Tables are handled differently on VB and IPB. Lets see if anything can be done about it.
Should be fixed now now.
Its same as old VB. And good part is you won't have to look at people like me who had 4K+ rep points and feel bad. Since everyone is on the same ground now.

Look at these two issues @Renegade:

Yeah will look at modifying that in some time.

Testing on Tapatalk (haven't checked it on pc) & question rolled into one:

My no. of posts have gone down by 100 due to unknown reason

Post count is a non issue. Once everything is set and stable we will recount the posts and everything will be back to normal.

I demand to Convert all my Likes to Reps ..... Pleaseeeee . @Renegade

Unfortunately that is not possible.

Yes, we have lost all the likes. Feedback Score = iTrader Points (Market Feedback)

Couple of things I have noticed,

As mentioned above will look at that soon.

---------- Post added at 08:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

Yep! All likes are gone.

The spacing at the end of the posts is annoying. With old posts, the space between paragraphs seems to have doubled.

Thats a problem with the VB editor. It just keeps adding unnecessary spaces.

When do we get priviledged user status? I guess it's 200 posts? Or is it time dependent?

It is 200 posts.

Is is possible to have a dark theme ??

Yes as I mentioned earlier. Soon.

I still cant figure out how to follow a thread.

Also why is "Messages" in my settings?

Thread tools at the top of the thread.
Messages in your settings? Well thats how vbulletin is.

Thanks for all the inputs. I hope I have not missed any sensible posts and replied to all.

Migrating isn't about just backup and restore of database. Both are completely different platforms. I am sure, both uses different encryption algorithms, you will end up with password curroption with it obviously. Thanks to admins for writing scripts to make all the information intact

;-)

I'll ask, have you have ever migrated anything ?

 

[F3niX]

Been getting the wrong password message almost everytime I login..
Had to use the form twice till now.. Is the migration still under process? Or is it done? @Renegade

 

[JuGGa]

^Even I had to do just now, twice.

 

[cooleagle]

I also faced them but guys let's wait it out they could be making some changes. I know you want your daily dose of TE.

 

[Renegade]

It is long done.

 

[woozydevotee]

Thank you.............

 

[ReVo_007]

all the likes /reps have been reset .. will they be restored ?

 

[GuruGulabKhatri]

i Loved that dark skin in ipb,however,the new TE in Vbulletin looks very minimal,
Waiting for That dark Skin now

 

[rajveersingh09]

Edit : My queries are solved now.

[raksrules]

Is there any way to ignore selective signatures ? Like in IPB?
Also i faced the password not being recognized issue, lets see if it comes up again.
Also avatar is not there for anyone, i did not see anything in the profile section, am i missing the exact spot or it is still not enabled.

 

[Rahul++]

I'll ask, have you have ever migrated anything ?

Yes, I did. Though I didn't migrate forum or blog with such a huge database. I have experience migrating boards from vB to IPB, vice versa.. Same for Blog platforms as well. Tell me what things made you feel this was an unprofessional migration?

There are always some bugs remains after moving to different platform with database or data information which we have to keep intact. There are many considerations to think like extra modifications or plug ins we install on the other platform. We can't really make available those features as it is on the platform we are migrating.

Well, I am not a profesisonal but that is what I know by my experience.

Tapatalk is working fine here (Tapatalk v2.1 on SGS I9000)

Guys, I am facing a problem here!
Whenever I open homepage, it says,
"GameR1120 , you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:1. Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you tryingto edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation."
But when I click on "forums", the webpage opens normally. Is it a bug or am I missing something?

Yes, this issue still exists because of the login page is being directed as a home page (www.techenclave.com redirects to login page), when you try to access login page after logging in, you will get that error.
@Renegade : Please set Forum Index or Portal (If added) as home page.

I am on 1.3/1.6 (didn't like the yellowish background of TT 2), sections name wise as well as category wise are being shown.

But I can't see my old PMs in Tapatalk but they are accessible through the browser & I have enabled PM though the browser. Am I missing something / some option which needs to be enabled ?

All PM are visible in Tapatalk v2. I have done nothing with options (Have enabled PM in Options though)
Some suggestions :
1. In user information column on left, Space between username and user title can be reduced a bit.
2. Blog Entries and Feedback Score text should be bold (to match other entities like Location, Posts)
3. In Blogs (http://www.techenclave.com/blogs/u13939/) Blog post content text color should be dark like we have here in threads. Light text on light background doesn't look good, same applies for (http://www.techenclave.com/blogs/)

Confirming the password not being taken up issue.
There is a problem with the algo used to convert the old password to the vbulletin system pass. Sadly this is not something vbulletin supports out of the box and looks like i didn't do a good job of understanding the fix for it

Meanwhile, just reset your password once to overcome the issue. Will have another solution to this by tomorrow.

THe pm and avatar issue should be solved for all by now. Have enabled them for all via db queries.
