Greetings all,

I just did the update to version 8.03 today. I did a few test posts and everything seems OK - that is until I responded with a quick post...

I replied to a message with the quick post feature. Since then, my user cannot see any forum topics. In fact, the Forum Statistics looks very strange:

Our users have posted 0 Posts in 0 Topics in 0 Forum(s)
Last Post; 30 December 1899 at 12:00am By
We have 77 Forum Members
The Newest Forum Member is (name removed)

When I log that user out and log in as another user, everything seems fine.

Here is what I see when I add a new member (in otherwords, what it should look like):

Our users have posted 175 Posts in 56 Topics in 15 Forum(s)
Last Post; Today at 3:06pm By RickMurphy
We have 78 Forum Members
The Newest Forum Member is thai

That last post was by me, the quick post - which does show just fine.

Any ideas?

This sounds very odd, I would think that this is coursed either by the database upgrade going wrong, or a corrupted file.

Go back to your original 7.x database and do the upgrade process again, also reupload the files to the server again, incase you have a corrupted file.

Please also note, that once the database is upgraded to version 8 do NOT attempt to run the database with version 7 of web wiz forums or it will screw up the forum and make posts not appear correctly or a all.

I managed to fix it by changing the moderator functions - changing it to admin group - non ladder. It was a member of the admin/moderator group but I no longer see that on the pull down list. Perhaps that was a version 7.x option only?

There is still a moderator group in version 8.

If not you can always create one and set moderator permissions on which ever forum you like for that group.
