Here's the latest on the Forum upgrade... Report problems here

[Majingir]

Tapatalk still has bugs (thread might say something like you're on post 228/250, but you're on the most recent post so there is nothing else to load), wonder if that has to do with the April posts being missing?

Also on tapatalk, I always see in every section the most recent thread is listed as this unknown "home" post. Maybe a bot/bug or ghost post?

HTMLs are now working

Just an FYI, you do have to go and edit any previous posts with an html and enable the option for it to fix it. It doesn't appear to enable it automatically on old posts.

Have the forums been incredibly slow today for anyone else or just me?

[redsox907]

Only been on the last few hours, but noticeably slower than previous days. I've noticed when things get changed/added it slows down. I'm assuming when the engineer is tweaking things it bogs it down

Well, we know the bots can post. Unless OS is changing its focus from sports gaming to how to contact airline customer support.

I'm still having issues with posting a new avatar.

I get this error:

• An unexpected error was returned: 'fwrite(): Argument #1 ($stream) must be of type resource, bool given'

I have clear my cache and cookies, I've tried 3 different browsers (Firefox, Opera, Safari) and get the same error, I have forced quit each browser and restarted. I restarted my Mac, and I'm still not able to change it. Any advice? Thank you!

BTW, the layout and load times are much better from when I was last on here about a week ago. Nice work everyone

[BurghFan]

Yes, that's on the list of things to be fixed.

Another week on and still nothing much has improved. Takes like 3-4 minutes to load any page or link. None of the posts after 9th April up yet. Format just not nice. I really think this could kill this site for a lot of people. Feel like so much is lost. I have lost interest in my dynasty now as I cant post updates. such a mess. Lets hope this next week brings some progress.

[kibaxx7]

Yep still waiting for my avatar and for those posts to appear. Fingers crossed.

[bcruise]

Well....the bots are certainly working.

Yeah, really just hoping all the posts get brought over soon. That part has been disappointing.

Ugh, yeah, that was bad.

For any of you folks who might've been upset by the old post count requirement to post new thread on the old boards, you all just saw exactly why that was implemented.

Strange that some people are still having performatnce issues, things have been pretty smooth for me for the most part in recent days, just a few hiccups here and there. The engineers primary task at the moment is to get all the performance issues ironed out then they'll get to the cusomizations. I think a lot of the issues have had to do with the fact that the old forum software was so old that it presented a lot of problems upgrading. I guess you can think of it as like upgrading from Windows 2000 straight to Windows 11

Engineer has corrected the dynasty forums and the HTML should look fine on old posts. You might need to tweak a few things here and there but for the most part all of the old posts are fixed. As for new posts, just make sure you use the drop down HTML and it should post fine.

[kdutch98]

Just checked, still missing all posts made after April 8.

And all Blog posts are still not allowing HTML, and when editing, there is no option to turn it on.

Not trying to be harsh—I say this because I care about OS and the community, especially the MLB The Show creators who’ve built something great here. But this has been the roughest forum migration I’ve seen, and it’s hard to tell what’s been more frustrating: the technical issues themselves, or the lack of communication other than this thread.

I’m not a luddite. I welcome the move to vBulletin. The old phpBB setup was overdue for an upgrade. But it’s clear this wasn’t rolled out with the right level of preparation and the right engineering expertise. For a long stretch, there was no visible messaging on the site about what was happening, only a forum thread that many people couldn’t even access due to the issues.

I know it’s just a forum for sports games, but it’s also been a reliable hub for years. It’s been tough to see creators lose their connection to the community, and it’s unfortunate that some are starting to look to places like Discord for a more reliable space. I’m still hopeful things will get back on track...but it’s fair to say this didn’t go the way it should have.

Any way to fix the spell check stuff ? My spelling skills are bad and when its in red it doesn't let me fix it..... eaxmple

[fsufan4423]

Maybe I'm just missing the settings, but I thought you could make the forum theme dark and how do you make the forum post start from latest?

I don't know about changing posts to start with latest, but you can switch to the Dark theme in the lower left.

I'm not sure I follow. Like you can't edit your post, or you can't physically delete it somehow? I can right click on words and change them, etc. so just trying to understand.
