Hm ... I'm not sure what's causing this exactly. The file that includes the new "board watch" functions must be getting included more than once. I modified the author's code so that it would only include the functions once. Please let me know if you continue having problems. If you do, please let me know how I can duplicate the problem. Thanks.

Duplicating is not a problem. I go to the Moderator Control panel, see which posts are waiting approval. Tick the ones I know are good, open the ones that aren't. Then when I'm happy with what needs approving I click on Approve.

Rough estimate would be it works 1/3 and fails 2/3 times. If I just refresh it goes through fine.

Are you continuing to have problems since I implemented a fix last night?

How can I get in touch with an administrator to help me get my old profile back? It never accepts my old password and reseting it never works either. And now it says I "don't participate enough" to PM Ryan or another administrator to ask for help! It's like I'm not wanted as a member here or something, yet I used to be contributing and as active as it gets. SMH

Haven't had any problems since. Image

Are you able to shoot an e-mail to staff explaining how this works? There's a couple of members who are legit that keep getting caught up.

I'm surprised no one complained about this problem ... for the past couple of weeks, the posting a new post or topic was taking about 15 to 30 seconds. I had enabled a feature to check everyone's IP address against an IP blacklist to help prevent SPAM bots. Apparently this feature kills the speed of posting on phpBB. I disabled this feature and have noticed a incredible speed increase when posting on the forums. If anyone else can confirm that this problem has been resolved for them, I would greatly appreciate the feedback. Thanks!

I also modified it so that the page that shows up after you post to let you know that your message was successfully posted will refresh in 1 second instead of 3. Let me know how you guys like that.

My internet's always had terrible speed and has been worse recently itself, so I think I just put it down to that-I'll see what happens posting this though.

^Like that, not that I actually counted the seconds, probably should have made that clearer in the original post :oops:

Hi! I have a question. Lately I´ve been recieving an email for each comment made in a topic, even the ones I only visit without comenting or commented a while ago.
I already changed my post notification options but since I haven´t done that in a long time and this problem is recent, I assume the settings were changed somehow.

Should I be worried someone hacked into my account? is it my fault for not making any updates in the settings so they changed into a standard? just a glitch?

Thank you very much.

It's a setting I changed. I just changed everyone's settings back to the original default. If people want to change it on their own, they can go back into their settings and modify it accordingly.

Thanks, I had an attack to my gmail account at around the same time this started, so I got a little paranoid. Thanks again.

I don't even know why I bother comming back here. This place is a waste land and the owner continues to ignore the problems.

This has been an issue for a while, but I can't remember if it had been reported. The quick fix is to copy the emoticon's URL and paste in IMG tags. Image
