So far, 95% of the forum is in good shape after using ACP > Tools > Recount & Rebuild and Cache Manager.
The only issues I've seen thus far are:
- All users have "Hide from the Who's Online list" set to ON
- All forums have their settings "Yes, posts in this forum should count towards user post counts" OFF and "Yes, threads in this forum should count towards user thread counts" OFF.
- Avatars are missing.
#1 and #2 are fairly easy to fix with the following queries:
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `invisible` = 0;
UPDATE `mybb_forums` SET `usepostcounts`=1, `usethreadcounts`=1;
Now to battle with the MyBB 1.8 bugs.
Avatars aren't merged. Still need to find a good way to do so.
1&2 look like bugs, I'll fix them in 1.8.1
Excellent, thank you.
Is there a ballpark release schedule for 1.8.1, or is it "when it's ready"?
Normally it should be released shortly after mybb 1.8.1 which
should be released 2 months after 1.8.0. However that's only how it should be, doesn't mean that it will be like this
Thanks for the info.
2 more issues I found - more options that are globally OFF when they should be ON:
1. UserCP > User Options > "Display images in posts."
2. UserCP > User Options > "Display videos in posts." (Not sure if this is usually on by default. Just guessing)
For those of you who don't want to wait until the next update:
UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `showimages`=1, `showvideos`=1;
Thank you SOOO much! I was having issues with post counts and this helped.
