Hello,

I just installed version 1.8.7 and used the merge system to bring in a phpbb3 system at https:/www.thebloodyclans.org/bbs
It appears to me something didn't install correctly even though there were no errors during either the install or merge. 2 things seem to be missing far as I can tell, there are no thread titles on the thread list except the post I made after everything was done. And at the bottom of the page where a user should be able to select their theme the menu is not there.
I don't see any errors in the apache logs.
Is it possible it is the https. The server is setup to force ssl connections.

I did another complete reinstall with https turned off with the same result.

After I added a few themes the menu option did start to appear at the bottom of the page but it doesn't include the default theme with multiple color choices.

During the merge it indicated it was merging in system avatars but they don't seem to be present anywhere.

Lastly user custom signatures didn't merge.
guests do not have access to your forum. can't check whats wrong !
have you run recount & rebuild tools available at tools & maintenance section

default theme doesn't provide its color options for the users.
theme's base color can be changed from admin panel (theme properties)
I have enabled guest viewing on a few forums with posting on 1.
I have done rebuild and recount without any affect, I have also rebuilt the cache.
have you checked threads table of the database (mybb_threads table - subject column) ?

I just check them and they are all empty. This leads me to believe the merge must have failed even though there where no errors. The phpbb_posts table has a post_subject column but the text is all listed as blob of various sizes.
I believe I resolved it. The use of the e option in the preg_replace lines was deprecated back in the 5 series of php and completely removed in the 7 series causing no value to be returned. I removed the e from the function call right after the expression and the merge seems to have worked.
OK, I just got hit by the same thing. I guess I will have to go back through it. What file was that in? I'd hate to have to run the thing again just to find the file to correct, then run it again after correcting it.
