The blue arrows, pointing to the first unread post in a thread, are now wrong. There were no blue arrows for some posts that I had not read. And there are still blue arrows for posts that I have read.
Perhaps this is related to that "Admin" bug. Maybe the blue arrows are pointing to the first post not yet read by Admin.Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

Me too. It also says I have to register.

Reading a thread no longer marks the thread as read.

The "Welcome, Admin" problem is fixed, moving on to next problem.

I'm unable to reproduce this problem myself. Is the blue arrow problem still there? If so then I suspect a DNS problem. If you use Chrome, could you try resetting Chrome's DNS cache, because it is possible that "evcforum.net" and "www.evcforum.net" are not pointing to the same IP address in Chrome's DNS cache. Reset it like this:
If you don't use Chrome then please tell me which browser you useq and I'll figure out how to reset its DNS cache. If you have your own way of checking if the problem is fixed then use that, but if not then try this:
Hopefully it's fixed, but if not let me know and I'll look into it further.

Hopefully it's fixed, ... It seems to be fixed. The blue arrows now appear to work normally.Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

I used to always see a red wavy underlining for words that weren't "spelled right". But no longer.
I'm 70 years old. My father always maintained that as you age your spelling is the first thing to go. Whether I agree with the spell-checker or not, I still find it to be a handy feature. Not sure which server I'm still on (I chose the remain-logged-in option) should that be a factor. At least I've never been greeted as Admin.

I used to alwayz see a red wavy underlining for words that weren't "spelled right". But no longer. I'm still seeing that. My misspelling above was intentional, as a test. However, I think it is the browser that does this, rather than the site. I'm using "firefox 91.10.0esr" (and it thinks that "firefox" is misspelled).Fundamentalism - the anti-American, anti-Christian branch of American Christianity

The spelling stuff is specific to your computer. If you're not seeing wavy red underlining of misspelled words in the reply box for EvC Forum then you shouldn't see it when typing text anywhere else, either. For instance, mistype a word into the Google search box and normally you would see wavy red underlining there, but if you're not seeing it in the EvC Forum reply box then you shouldn't see it there, either. You should see it in both places or neither place.

So there's a setting somewhere that got changed? Do you know where that would be (eg, system or browser)?
Windows 10, Microsoft Edge

Take a look at this. Edge has had some updates lately so maybe you got reconfigured. How to configure spell checker on the new Microsoft Edge.

It is an excuse for intellectual laziness. If your viewpoint has merits and facts to back it up why would you have to lie?

Found it and that cleared up the problem. Thanks! Hate it when updates mess with my configuration settings (eg, MS' ultimate stupidity of defaulting to hiding file extensions).
Looking earlier in the system settings there's a setting for displaying suggestions (eg, like what your phone's keyboard does). So I tried it and hated it. An associated setting was to autocorrect your text (AKA "autocorrupt"), a feature on my phone which I absolutely hate.

The database has been moved from the old server to the new. We are now running off the version of the database on the new server. Please post any problems to this thread.
