    Someone please tell me I am not going mad, I am certain that along the top, there was a 'Chat' button, where 'User CP' now sits, next to 'Main Site'. Whenever I am in pm's, I always get back to the main forum, by clicking the 'Chat' link, however today I found myself in 'User CP'. :confused:
    Hurrah, it's back!!! :D

    Well done techies.

    One minor point. When embedded text hyperlinks are created now, they display differently i.e. not underlined as before example see here
    :doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:

    Thanks for all your hard work MSEs Neil, Daniel and all the other unnamed techies.

    Since the upgrade, viewing via Safari v2.0.4, many of the site graphic links won't load or time out, e.g., "report post", "quick reply to this message". There's a blue question mark block instead.

    Seems mostly sorted now. Thanks guys. :T

    Or a different font colour for hyperlinks. They are getting lost in posts now, IMHO, of course.

    You can’t (practically) search the forum unless you’re logged in. You’re repeatedly told to wait 25 seconds. This also applies to the Today’s-Posts search.
    wait_25_seconds.png

    If you do try again later, you’ve always got more seconds to wait. If you do it rapidly, you can see the seconds to go count down, only to shoot back up to 25 before the counter reaches zero. There are very rare occasions when you do get a successful search. Are all people looking at the site who are not logged in being treated as the same single anonymous user? This is distinctly annoying for me, as I only bother to log in to post and don’t use cookies.

    Also, the CAPTCHA for non-logged-in key-word searches is case sensitive. This is a bad idea. People don’t expect it to be case sensitive. With a sequence like “zs2G3F”, it’s not even obvious that there are different cases being used, much less which are upper case and which are lower case.

    I’m also going to moan about the problem I posted about here. I got an email that the Technical Team would look into it, but never heard anything more. I mention this, in case it’s related to iwanttosave’s problem with private message counts, which would make it a problem that pre-dates the upgrade. Oh, and the fact that I’d still like it fixed please. :)

    Is it just me?

    I can't access any of the buttons above this reply.

    Bold, italic, underline, quote tags insert hyperlink etc all not working for me.

    Even in advanced mode.

    I'm getting Internet Explorer cannot view this page blah blah and the site is a slow as it was before for me! :doh:

    I've also tried replying to a thread and the page is just blank. Keep refreshing and when fully loaded it has the address and Martins head in the little tab thing (IE7) but a blank page! :confused:

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/newreply.html?do=postreply&t=390466

    Also when I hit 'new posts' the warning in the Gambling Loopholes board appeared at the top. Hasn't happened since though.

    Tell you what I just noticed aswell!

    When you quote someone a number comes up by their name aswell! :confused:

    Doesn't affect the post in anyway mind!

    Also once you have quoted someone they have a blue arrow by their name! Is this a new feature? :think:
