Andrew, I know you have said before you are unable to reproduce the issue of the forum only showing the last ten posts instead of a full page (pic below), but this is driving me nuts. I get it on my two home pcs, my work pc, in XP and in Vista.

Please please please fix it before I tear out what little hair I have left.

Yep, I see that on FireFox 2. Occasionally the Forum Home page won't show any post under Recent.

Same here...using newest version FF 2.0.0.2 selecting view all recent posts again or going to a new post & using view all recent posts at bottom fixes it for me. It is only occasionally that this happens....no particular rhyme or reason & can not reproduce if I want....was thinking that some site work was going on.

Fuzzy, I will have another look at the code to see if there is something I can do to force the condition in which youre seeing the 10 post max deal. But without being able to reproduce the error (ever) I'm sure you can understand that it's difficult to track down. I will promise that I will have another look though.

Lantec, What you're seeing there is the forums gracefully handling a database connection issue. Our websites and databases exist on different machines, so every now and then there is a data communication error or something of the like. I have an item in my list to find a better way to convey that to the user.

Today, after updating to latest version of SDC, at 8:00 AM MST, I get a runtime error every time I click on a new thread in Discussion. I'm using SG-1 WB theme, and the page stays blank until I dismiss the Debugger, then the forum page loads as usual, with SG-1 skin. The error says Do You Wish to Debug? Line 41, Error: 'oSiteThemes' is undefined. Line in script is as follows: function getSiteTheme()} ERROR ARROW THIS LINE var _Theme = eval (getDefaultTheme(osite Themes.themes)) [0]; Also, for some reason, as I write this, my Enter key is inoperable so I'm unable to create a linebreak and am just winging it here with the spacerbar. Thanks, seldomseen

Known issue that SD can't reproduce.  [Ctrl]-M works though.

Now back to your regularly scheduled bug thread.

apologies if I'm hogging bandwidth. Just occurred to me. If so, I'll try to restrain m'self...

I can't remember if I reported it in this thread or the other issues/bugs thread, but I feel the need to bring it up again.

When reading a thread and clicking on the next page button to get to the next newest post, it always takes me to the last comment at the bottom of the page instead of to the first comment at the top (which would be the unread one). A tad annoying. Firefox 2.0.0.2.

Since we've noted most of the bugs which havent been fixed or investigated yet, and this post is ancient. I'm going to lock it up. I'll be starting a new post and sticky'ing it in this post's place.
