Well damn, that's what's missing! I thought my notification bar looked a little... off! 😅

The server admin is working on the forum database. It'll likely return once he's done working on it. Although I can always take a look into it later, if it doesn't return.

Right now I'm working within the admin panel to see what I can fix myself. However, do be aware that my powers are currently limited to only the admin panel, and I can only adjust things that are already installed. This list will be updated as more things are fixed from this update.


Fixed:​

• I've gotten rid of the "Featured Content" widget on the side of the forum.

• Edit 1: Fixed logo size for PC users.

• Edit 2: Removed "Trending Content" widget from the side of the forum.

• Edit 3: Removed "Share this page" widget from the side of the forum.


Temporarily Fixed:​

• Uploading images to the forum. Image optimization addon is currently temporarily disabled, which is what was causing the images to become corrupted after uploading them.

Unfixed/Broken:​

• Groups (the groups still exist in the nodes and have not been deleted, but the Social Groups addon is broken, and if it can be updated, it will have to be updated by the server admin.)

• Images flipping when uploading for some users using mobile.

• Page timeouts when posting.

• Replies to profile posts themselves are not highlightable.

Search is back, as is post history but it's only showing posts from today, nothing prior.

Yay! Who had taken it? 😁

Possibly need to recreate the database.
(Maybe similar issue with these slow profile post searches.)

If it does not start solving by itself it may have to be looked how to start the indexing manually

Dude, there's no "re-creating the DB" as a fix... that's a nuclear option. You really don't wanna go there unless you've lost the whole thing!

True, but might need to re-generate any indexes in the database. (assuming the search/post counts are maintained via a table index, of course)

Whole different endeavor.

Anyway, I'm backing out from this Statler & Waldorf chat. I'll leave it to the guys working on it to diagnose it and sort it out.

As someone who does this for a living, there's nothing more maddening than being asked from the sidelines questions to the effect of "have you turned it off and on?". Yes, thank you Cptn Obvious!

The forum was recently updated from version 2.2.13 to version 2.3.7 on December 27th, 2025. We're aware of some issues happening with certain functions and features of the forum. Please hang tight while the admins of the forum address the issues of such a large upgrade.

Image issues in DMs (and possibly forum threads), Groups not working and may be something not mentioned.

Brought it to the one that updated and he's currently working on those issues. Not too sure on the ETA for some.
I'll mention @admin @SloppyTac0 so he can see this and others could point out any thing they find.

As a possibility, I would advise clearing site data, or if you're in tor, new identity to clear up any cache issues due to any new code changes.

Sounds good!
 
I just discovered that the media section of the groups is no longer accessible when accessed it displays: "Oops! We ran into some problems. The requested page could not be found."

24 of your posts consisted of a single . posted repeatedly in the same thread.
Those were deleted as spam.

That's what I'm saying. I only posted the "." comments because my account reseted and was trying to make it functional again... I had more than 20 normal comments and was using it normally, had private messages, etc, but now is just like I just created it...

Have no more old or new notifications of old posts, my private messages still there but can't continue them or create news, etc.
 
When on mobile in a secure browser the attach file button doesnt work when you try to upload pics or videos because the browser backs you out. I think it bugs out and doesnt upload the image/vid like it forgets or isnt there.
 
Something I just noticed. If we sign in with the TOR address, everything works as it should except for one thing. When you go to "Mark all alerts read" on the alerts page, the dialog window opens up, but the button link in the dialog defaults to the zooville.net domain and not the tor domain. If you use the browser back button to go back to the tor page, all of them are marked as read, so its working its just redirecting incorrectly.

Oh my god, re-read my comment. I said I had normal posts (+20 NORMAL COMMENTS AND NOT SPAM, way more than 30 days, etc) and was using PMs, etc, had no problems. But suddenly one say I opened the site and my acc was like reseted. This started like two weeks agora.

Your profile was not reset, all the posts you have lost were deleted for legitimate reasons. Those reasons being the thread being deleted or spamming.

YES, IT WAS RESETED. How hard is it to understand that the account was reseted and ONLY THEN I spammed the comments with "."? The account had totally normal comments BEFORE the spam, like 2 weeks ago. And then one day It was reseted for nothing and ONLY THEN I spammed the "." comments to test

Jesus.......

Do you actually understand english or do you just not have a grasp on grammar? Legit question. Because it appears to be BOTH THINGS. The grammar part, who really cares if you dont know how that works.....

Here is the important part you are missing, apparently......

When you are told, BY A MOD, that your account was NOT reset, but instead that your missing posts are deleted IN DELETED THREADS and also individually deleted spam posts.......the KEY POINT in the statement is that what dropped you BACK to no DM status is the fact that a large chunk of your comments were in THREADS that no longer exist, just like your posts....GONE.

The other info, that your spam happy attempt to get you DMs back were ALSO later deleted is just a small bit of ADDITIONAL information SEMI relevant to the POINT.

The mods, can see ALL your posts, period. The ones that YOU can see, AND,the ones that have been deleted by YOU, OR BY THE MOD TEAM. And, just as importantly, WHERE AND WHEN THE POST WAS MADE.

So, in conclusion, if a mod is telling you that the bulk of your missing posts were deleted in in the form of ENTIRE THREADS being deleted, then that, my dimwitted friend, is what happened. Because HE can still see those posts,even if you cant.

@pes is telling you exactly that AND providing you a bit of EXTRA context in telling you that your spam happy phase was also deleted because it was spam.

The MAIN fact, which keeps sailing over your head is ENTIRE threads have been deleted, and with them, YOUR posts.

Your spamming attempts are not the key point. Those were AFTER the fact.
 
Forum membership is a privilege not a right. Access to PMs is a privilege not a right. 20 posts is not a difficult target to overcome. If someone has had an account for nearly 2 years but doesn't have 20 posts, (once questionable threads and spam have been deleted), then complaints about forum mistreatment aren't going to be viewed sympathetically. That spamming is not part of the main forum's rules is probably an oversight. Most forums view spamming as a permanent banning offence.
