Just refreshed the page and got the new format. No pictures showing up in the thread I was looking at. There are the individual boxes that say IMG, but now image to look at. I was still signed in after refreshing. David
I dont think it accross the site but I noticed it in the old photos thread post #466260, not only do the photos not show but the posters avatar is a grey square as though there is supposed to be a pic. Tony
I have a Final backup from the old site that may contain those items so stay tuned while I upload those attachment folders.
Update Okay I think I found them.that folder that holds the attachments has more than 9,998 files. I did not notice that before. There is a limit of the number of files per folder that is uploaded. So I need to reupload that folder above 9,998 files
There is no such thing as stupid questions. Just stupid answers.
The issue is the old site keeps crashing when I run a backup and I keep getting more files every time I run it. I think I have most of them uploaded now But I need to close the board to re-index them
Plus the weird characters that we see. I fixed those once before but the site crashed and the backup used to restore the database was before the edits. This new host Is more stable.
So I will probably do this in the wee hours of the morning when I am awake and most normal people are asleep.
Did I just say I was abnormal? LOL

I am just happy we moved the site to I believe more robust and reliable hosting service. I have not had one issue with them that needed a call in over 4 years. Fingers crossed.
I just need to get everything cleaned up again.
Even the backups from the old site have been issues.
You know at first i thought it may be the upgrade of the software but I have done several sites and they went flawless. When I saw the site crashed again a day after i made corrections that I new would be forth coming I suspected the host.
Especially when I had issues making backups to use to move with.

Photos are not viewable. Forum 29-32 OP Bears Fan 315 I could not view the photos listed nor could another person so i tried a test photo and had the same result-no photo opens . Also noted that the post had no numerical post number to refer to. Please let us know when it;s fixed as no sense posting photos that can't be viewed.
I remarked before that upgrades were never smooth and the last time Bill Barker moved host the system was down for the best part of a week so you have had it easy so far. Tony
Thanks for your efforts Ruben. We appreciate your efforts to improve the site. We are sure that Peter appreciates not getting beat up when things don't work as expected.
