    Bugs (and strange things...)

    As you all know we recently upgraded the boards to VBulliten V3.0.0. During the upgrade some user permissions, styles, and other features were changed. We are working hard to correct these issues, but it will take time. Please use this thread to report any such problems.

    Thank you for bearing with us.

    Does this mean the old style will be restored?

    The old style will not be completely restored so that we can accomidate the new features available on this version of VBulliten. However, we are working on modifying the style to make it better.

    not sure I should post this here, but I can't see any posted code unless I do a "quote" on the post...

    Go to User CP->Edit Options->Miscellaneous Options. You probably just have basic editor selected.

    Haven't been able to find a way to mark a particular forum read. Under quick links all you have its mark forums read which affects all of them.

    Either that or I'm blind (which is possible)

    If the code in a code tag is too wide (width exceedes the screen width) the scollbar for the code window disappears. One example is in this thread:

    http://cboard.cprogramming.com/showthread.php?t=51137

    Test:
    Code:
    iiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn()
    {
      return 0;
    }

    While we're making changes, why not add a few more smileys to be used in appropriate situations?

    Hm, another bug found. If you enter a too long text in the code tag, there will be spaces in it (see my reply above) where the line was breaked in the text form.

    Potential bug, or my own stupidity. When I try to tell the forum my MSN Messenger handle, I get an error saying that the handle is invalid.
