MOVE TO SMF BOARD CANCELED

There are a couple of major issues with the new board that are causing us to cancel the move at this time.

FIRST ISSUE: Unread messages is not working properly -- depending on how you view them. Attempts to fix resulting in changing which ways work and don't work but did not fix the underlying issue. As listing unread messages MUST be reliable, this alone is enough reason to cancel the move.

SECOND ISSUE: The last message on a page is completely messed up for some usergroups. The header for the message repeats at the end of the message (instead of the lines with the "Report to Moderator" link. So it looks like there is another empty message present.


I would like to apologize for wasting this week trying to move to the new board. It was supposed to be a week totally free of other obligations so I could devote all my time and energy to moving the board without making major errors.  Instead it turning into the week from hell:

Sunday: Was supposed to start but 9 inches of rain might possible power failures so I did not start. Power was only out briefly, but rains that heavy cause 4-8 power failures about half the time. Sad

Monday: Worked like I was supposed to. Got a lot done. Was actually a bit ahead of schedule at this point.

Tuesday: One of Lyric's doctors needed her to have forms today. Had to go pick up forms at doctor across town. Wasted 3 hours on this.  That night, more storms. Dog woke us in panic about3 am. did not get back to sleep.

Wednesday: Worked but tired from last night. Did not get as much done as I should.  We go to bed. One of our senior dogs develops problem at 12:30am. Spend night at vet, did not get any sleep.

Thursday: More vet, but it does not matter as I am in no shape to work on board. I got a little done, but tried not to do much as when this tired, I make lots of errors. Slept okay, but still not caught up.

Friday: Doctor needs to see Donna (told us Tuesday) -- wasted 4 hours traveling to/from doctor and waiting for doctor. Got some stuff done. Got a good night's sleep.

Saturday: Finished up board enough to test.  Initially looked good, then started seeing major problems in the evening as more people posted.

Sunday: Attempted to fix problems -- nothing worked completely. Out of time. Decided to drop conversion and continue to use old board.  Doubt I will be able to free up another week to try until fall or winter. Sad I hope when I do it will actually be a real FREE week and not one full of expected real life problems and emergencies.  I suspect I really messed thing up at some point on Wednesday. Thursday. or Friday when I was exhausted and prone to making errors.
