Well, I see that people are posting in the Winter thread by looking at the general weather page. However, the last post I can see is from two hours ago...last post feature has also stopped working. This seems to happen a couple of times per day for about an hour and then it seems to fix itself.

that's odd , we will keep looking into it. It has to be an account issue . if it was a board issue everyone would be having the same issues

Several of us are unfortunately.... it's happening to me daily also. And I see georgiagirl having same issue. I have to go on Tapatalk to see the post

Although I can come in this thread and post/view no issues

that was my point it's a handful. it has to be an issue when we merged accounts. If it was a board issue every single person would have issues .

The weird part is that this thread is working correctly. I can use the last post feature here with no problem.
 
While I'm trying to participate I'm not seeing my posts or any other new posts either while logged in in the January thread.
 
OK. January thread is now working properly. All of the new posts happen to be on a new page in the thread. Maybe there's an issue when the number of responses on the page gets maxed out. Thanks!

I know that was your point, I was just pointing out other's were having the issue too.... I know at one time it looked like it was just down to one account and I was just clarifying

That is looking like it might be the case

Did the "Return to top" or "General Weather" links disappear? I'm on desktop and those were a nice addition! Following on Facebook and Twitter now. I haven't found the Youtube channel yet but am very excited for all the new features coming up!! Big "Thanks" to all that are putting in the time and effort to provide this awesome Southern_wx experience!

The Return to Top is at the bottom right of each post. I do miss the General Weather link on the bottom of the pages.

Hey guys. I have changed some DNS settings. If you are experiencing missing imagery, buttons, please delete your history/cache/cookies, relogin to the site and see if it's working for ya.

Also, let me know if you're still having post viewing issues after clearing your old data. I think we might be onto a true fix.

Hi Shawn.  Nothing is missing.  The page format is different than before the site crashed.  Before the site went down and you switched to an individual server, each page that you viewed in a thread would have these links at the bottom:

Southern WX Forums > Weather Talk > General Weather

This was very handy.  We miss it.  Can you put it back?  Thanks for all of the hard work!

Yes please. I think it's very helpful to navigate the site more efficiently.  Does anyone else agree?

It's on, and says "Forum Jump" next to it now.
 
Uggghhhh. Every time I click on the January discussion, it takes me back to the very first page of the thread on mobile!! Very frustrating, logged in and back out, still doing it ! When I click on next newest, it says no new posts

Same for me. The last post I see is #320. I'm on desktop and logged out then in and no change.

 Same here when not logged in. #320 is the last one that I can see.
 
The board is acting wonky for me. It says there have been new posts since the last one I made in the January thread but the last post I made is the latest one I can see.

It's not just you....  funny thing is you can logout and read all post but login and they aren't there.  It's a work in progress

The upgraded forum software should alleviate this problem :)

They work easily. Just keep clicking "reply" until you're done selecting posts.
 
One heck of a mid-January map - snow, anyone?

Mobile site looks great. Only bad thing is not being able to see locations of posters.

You should be able to see locations on mobile too. Might be an issue i can work with, or you are seeing users who haven't set their location. I will check this out right now.
 
Okay brick. It is dictated by screen size. Here is what I recommend.

If you are looking for the location of a user on the mobile website, if you click the username who posted, it will bring up a popup window and let you see their location easily if they have set it. :)
 
I love winter storms, I love tracking hurricanes and I don't mind a thunderstorm, but I HATE tornadoes. Everyone stay safe today!
 
and if you pull a national map up - it is raining on the north side of Lake Superior - holy cow - what a January ....

Hey Phil, I posted an update in the image upload/support section guide. It should make things a little easier from here out to upload to postimage.
