Welcome High Tech!! A true tech guy - up at all hours of the night/day :D Thanks for the encouragement.
Kind Regards, Phil
Working on computers myself right now Phil.
BTW, I just noticed one more small detail you'll want to add to your todo list. Either the server's time is about 17 hours fast or the time offset in SMF is.
On further looking, it looks to be the server's time because the chat room time is also off, although oddly, it appears to be off by 16 hours. :-\
Yes - I've been messing w/ that.. oddness. I do appreciate the heads up! Keep 'em coming 'till we nail them all!
The system clock was off. NOT surprised to hear you also are working on computers. :D
Best Regards, Phil
timeclock ok?
- - haha - a little better. ;D
once again phil
THANK YOU FOR THE MAGIC THAT YOU DO
melbo
Thank you melbo! Welcome to the new site. Hopefully less frustrating for all involved. ;D
Kind Regards, Phil
Wow Phil,

And the time is right, at least for us in Texas anyway! ;)
Thanks for all of your long hours and hard work.
Paul
Great Job Phil....

There is a little difference in the" Show unread posts since last visit."
Now it just shows unread posts ,not since last visit even this visit.
Works in Canuckland too. ::)
Hey, this thing is fast. Very nice. Good show.
Do have one question regarding the search function. (since I have so many questions and use it a bunch)
Once you've found your list of topics and read the first one, trying to go back to the list you just found is a multi step process because the page has expired.
Any hints on keeping that page alive?

Instead of opening the topic to look at in the same window as the search, right click the link and choose either "Open in New Tab" or "Open in New Window" (tabs not available in all browser versions). That way when you want to go back to the search, just click back to its tab or window and it's still there.
My browser must not have that function. >:( (Or... it might be that my Brain doesnt have that function)
EDIT: Now my Browser and Brain both have that function!....Thank you, That will make my endless searches a little less endless.

Hi Ed,
It's working on my end..
Nick-
Pic postings all OK
Phil and team, thanks for the hard work getting this up and running! It is much faster. Thanks for all your time.
Phil, great job as usual. Thanks for your dedication to the board.
When you do not have anything else to do you might take a look at the MAK ads at the bottom of the page. Mine does not seem to be showing correctly.

Not showing on mine either.
Erk! Phil needs help! I have 6 ads at the bottom of each page. What is showing on your pages?
Which theme are you using? I'm using "Forum or Board Default"
Thank you!!

Mine shows a small icon. When I click on it it takes me to the BCM ad. I am still using the same theme. Also my clock is showing an hour difference. It shows 1:41 PM instead of 12:41 PM.

Hi Richard, if you go to :
Profile -> Look and Layout Preferences -> Time Offset (heading) ->
Then click : -> (auto detect)
to fix the timezone offset, does that fix the problem ?
Both servers are in the same timezone, but It was off this morning by about 17 hrs (thx HighTech).
Let me know - Phil
Yup, dead ad at bottom goes to BCM.
turn the chat back on, time to fly without a net!
happy coaching!
buswarrior
OK, that should fix the banners. My copy of those images was cached from when I was working on stuff on the old server.
As far as chat, that will be a new chat package which we will get started testing now that the problems w/ the main BBS are fixed (well, they seem to be fixed anyways.. :o )
The old package should still be available via links @ one of the sticky posts.
Hope this helps, Phil
Thanks, Phil,
My link that goes directly to the Chatroom and gives a full sized screen is:
http://www.busconversions.com/bbs/chat/flashchat.php
Right now there is no tab at the top for the chatroom. I hope to see a lot more people there, now!
Dallas
Thanks Dallas - yes, if it starts taking more than a week or two to test, install, etc., the new chat, then I'll be sure to get the tab back at the top of the page, along w/ links showing who is in chat.
Thanks for keeping me in line!!! ;D :D
Best Regards, Phil
Phil,
Keep this up and you could make a good living in the computer field.....
Good job and thanks
Skip

Nick-
BCM ads are at the bottom... Google ads are gone at the top. :-X

My pleasure Tom - And I forward a big thanks to MAK for footing the bill. ;D :D
Kind Regards, Phil
Another trivial detail: The news line at the top just announced "BBS DOWN @ 9:15 PM CDT tonight!!! " I presume that was leftover from Friday night.
Thanks High Tech. The details ARE important!!
Kind Regards, Phil
;D
To the modern day Gurus of the MAK board: I have publicly acknowledged your good work on my own bulletin board, but I think it would be much more sincere if I left you the same message here:
I have to say that Phil has done an incredible job at keeping the continuity of www.busconversions.com/bbs intact - certainly something I couldn't do myself here during my recent upgrade, as I was learning on the fly.
Congrats to the #1 show on the internet. We appreciate your longevity and tenacity. Thanks also to Nick and Jack and any other moderators I've missed!
Good work, lads!
Ian

Thank you Ian,
Coming from you that means a lot. I have a deep respect for how well you manage busnut.com. Both technically, and the classy way you interact with your members. I definetly tune in from time to time to learn. Thanks for keeping an eye on us! ;D
Kind Regards, Phil
I can't help after reading your reply I have to say "Ian you are a standup guy" And your board is pretty good too! ;)
