    Board "Corrupted?"

    On 17 September...yesterday...all of a sudden the board changed its shape on me. Everything is pushed to the left side, and the button that allows me to login / logout is missing, and the "thank you" option is missing from posts.

    I am afraid this is not affecting anyone but me, because I have not seen anyone else mention this.

    Heeeellllppppp!!!!!

    I am having the same problem. I am also unable to search which is keeping me from posting anything new. Any suggestions?

    It's not just you, I think we're all experiencing some weird effects of some sort or other.

    Hopefully Mike's working on it as we speak.

    We all seem to be having the same problem. I'm guessing Mike tried some changes to improve the board and this happened. I'm sure he will get it sorted out in a few hours,

    I've had the same thing happen many times when making changes to the HTML code on another board. Sometimes it just goes wacko on you.

    especially when you don't close your tags.

    You don't even want to know what BB and I went through to try to edit his Brit board that was originally made by a previous owner with SiteBuilder. Insane garbage HTML with hundreds of useless tags. Any edits he made to the news page with my instructions resulted in the symbol for the Angstrom (A with a circle over it) throughout the page. I'm decent with HTML and know how to nest and close tags but closing a page resulted in a wild creation of unwanted tags being created randomly across the page. I tried three different editors including Dreamweaver before a member had his partner trash the code and re-write the site from scratch.

    Same here. I hope that the Thanks mod gets enabled again soon, too.

    Glad she did it for free. She gets 5-10 K for it as a site designer.

    When the thanks feature is fixed, will all of the thanks be erased and reset to zero?
