    Profile’s aren’t active, but I’m thinking that is because nobody has created one yet. Also, on the old board the name of the poster would be a link to their WGA profile and then a link to GC and that doesn’t happen now. Would be something for a future update, I am liking the look and the speed of the new site. Guess you could always do the once a month updates like GC does and keep us on edge on the bug fixes and new rollouts!

    Look at the bottom of each post. There is a Profile button that takes you to the poster’s profile. I haven’t checked, but AFAIK the link to GC accounts should still be working from there.

    I am reluctant to add the link to users’ GC accounts to forum posts. All the modified code added to the base is what is causing me so much trouble right now…

    For the time being, fixes are being made to the live system. When things start to slow down, I’ll take a more structured approach.

    Even though most are from Wisconsin, the system can’t assume what time zone anyone is from. You need to change your time zone in Your Account – Preferences.

    Since we’re springing ahead, you’ll want to change it from GMT -6 to -5.

    Nope, tried the profile link at the bottom of the posts before I posted it, thought it may be because we don’t have the profile filled out but mine doesn’t work either and I made sure I had it. All I get is this module isn’t active saying and a go back option. Sorry to create more work for you..

    Take a breather! I know how frustrating it can be taking over an integrated software environment and re-build, & re-shape it. This can make for little sleep and not to mention add stress to your already busy days. It looks like you are making a lot of progress and I am certain the transition will smooth out and return to normal in the days ahead.

    Thank you for all of your hard work!

    I did notice something, and it started just before the switch so it may or may not be new site thing…. I stopped receiving notifications when topics I am participating in got replies. I did check my options and they are enabled….any suggestions?

    NR – I’m having the same issue with notifications and am trying a few things with TBC. I’ve unsubscribed / resubscribed and nothing changed. I even changed to a different email address and that didn’t seem to work either.

    A little “Black Magic” and my email notifications are working again. I sent some additional info back to TBC but don’t feel comfortable posting it here because of the method used (i.e. I don’t want to cause more headaches for TBC)

    Yup, this I know. I think on the old site there was a box to check to for DST to change automaticly.

    Jeremy used to change everyone’s TZ in the database.

    Is this the best practice to follow? In the “real world” this would never fly! I hope you have a good back-out and test plan!

      It’s nice being retired… I think it’s time to get outside and do some birding and caching!

      Backups.

      No, not best practice, but with one person and people not able to access the website, I have little choice.
