Imported Post / PM Issues
Usernames
- Double Line Break, What does it mean!
- This was caused by a bug in the import script we used to convert the old posts from FUDforum to vBulletin. At this point, there doesn't seem to be anything we can easily do about those without redoing the import, which would cause downtime, along with a plethora of other serious problems.
- Inline Images
- All uploaded images have been moved to the new database, but their row assignments in the old database don't line up with those in our new database. As a result, we are unable to put uploaded images back inline with the text, unless we manually go through each post, however, the images are shown as thumbnails at the bottom of each post. Users can go through their posts, and replace the old image tags with the new, substituting the old image's URLs for the new ones.
- This error is caused by the way birthdays were stored in the old database. If you see this error in your user profile, update your birthday, and it should go away. Be sure the year is not set for "0."
Code:
Warning: mktime() expects parameter 4 to be long, string given in [path]/includes/class_userprofile.php on line 260- Since vBulletin does not support the use of an "Alias," and we require real names to post in the forums, the only way we were able to implement that without serious changes to the vBulletin code was by replacing "User Names" with "Real Names." As a result, users need to log in to the forums with your "Real Name." We are currently looking into solutions for users to log in using an email address or a separate "log in name."
