Software upgrade mostly done

[2Questions]

When I use the search feature, it doesn't seam to return correct results. I generally search for "Hammeck" at least a couple times a day, to make sure I didn't miss any comments/questions. Right now, that only returns a single thread... Help!

Donna here...Same with me. I search 2QZQ once or twice a day for the same reason, and I can't seem to find the same search results that I had before the update. I was going to wait until things settled down and send a PM to one of the mods. But since my issue was mentioned...??

Orange = Unread posts since last visit.

Thank ye kindly!

Big time delay in recent posts?? Once I view a recent post, it disappears..? Almost like there is an automatic "marked read" operation happening??

And hyper links is different.
Can they be fixed??
I liked the old way of shortening hyper links to a simple HERE look, rather an actual lengthy URL code.

This still works the same way as it did in the old software. Not sure what you mean?

Perhaps the same issue I mentioned earlier?

URL Link button in reply window:
Previously, when a URL was pasted in, and 'OK' pressed, the 'URL Descriptor' field was highlighted to allow easy typing of a descriptor.
Good image insertion model

Now, the default encourages instead:

Is this to discourage links to spam sites, etc. being 'hidden' by a descriptor, or is it unintended?

Looks good. Thanks for all the hard work getting things sorted out!!

Thanks for steady improvements. I asked for an option to use the old skin, but I can get used to this one. I like the green text.

I'm not sure if I'm just not seeing it, but what happened to the 'quick jump' that was at the bottom of every page?

I have a question ... when I have the "new post" tab selected ... some of the folder icons on the left are colored orange and some aren't. What does that indicate?

The open folder (not orange) = Contains unread posts
The open folder (orange) = Hot thread with unread posts

Alright, I've noticed two things...

1. My post count appears to be down by about 60 or 70.
2. When I use the search feature, it doesn't seam to return correct results. I generally search for "Hammeck" at least a couple times a day, to make sure I didn't miss any comments/questions. Right now, that only returns a single thread... Help!

The reason for the post count for some user being lower may be because of the software running a update counters script after the upgrade was done.
This will recalculate all of your user's post counts based on their CURRENT posts in the database.
If you removed a post or we removed one of you posts in the past it may have not been caught until the updated counters script ran again.

I am not sure what your saying about the search not working correctly. When I do a search for "hammeck", I get three results. Could you please elaborate more so I can look into this?

Something is going on with search. if you search by username, it is only returning info up to June 2013 in some cases.

HERE'S AN EXAMPLE SEARCH

This might be a clue.

Thanks attroll. As for the post count, would I have had 250 - 300 deleted or removed posts in that time? Seems excessive no?

That should be fixed now. It was set to only return 500 results. I change it to return 1,000 results.
