    The advert in the top right corner, covers part of the log in, making it hard to log in! it also covers the remember me check box. using FF 3.6 (mac)

    I don't know if you class it as a problem or not, for me it is. The whole boards text is like if its set to be all centered and it's driving me nuts.

    And the option to change the "skin" to the "Old JC" look is gone. That blows. I love the old style "skin".

    I had trouble logging in with the log in up in the top banner. I could enter all my details, but it was as though the "Log In" button was inactive. I had to click on the reply to this thread and then log in through there.

    Oh, I should also mention that the trouble in my above post was on Firefox 3.0.10, but Ubuntu OS. It would not surprise me at all if it's this computer, (Dad refuses to use Windows despite this being worse than when he did run Windows) but I haven't had any trouble logging in to anything else.

    Search:

    I know you mentioned it'll take time to index BUT is there still a way to search all your own posts, because I just tried to do it and only came up with threads started by me. I'm a little confused

    I assume it's to do with indexing or an option in search I didn't see, still, some help would be awesome.

    Nice work peeps :d looking good!

    Only thing I have noticed that could be a pain for simpletons like myself.... A thread that I have read, and there is no new posts, the thread title isnt faded like it used to be.

    EDIT: NM the little envelopes are changed so what I said above... completely useless really.

    At this stage it's a bit hard to say when the search will be available, it's been index for quite a number of hours now and we haven't even hit a million posts as yet.

    Unfortunatley with the vb4 upgrade all old skins are redundant.

    Dunno if it is me being retarded or not, but I couldn't tick the 'Remember Me' button and I also had to press enter instead of clicking the Log In button.

    Troy, there seems to be an alignment issue with FF, if you click to the top of the button it works, same as checkbox.

    Is fine in IE.

    is there a plan to add more skins into V4 once the indexing and rest of the update is complete? cause this skin is really gay.

    Im running firefox 3.5.7 and everything is lined up fine, minus the Ride and join date over on the RHS on the posts.

    Sweet, I'll try that. Also none of the forum categories on the main page say they have new posts (they are all red) but when you go into it there is heaps of new posts/threads/replies.

    Actually you can now

    I've enabled the search as you couldn't even see posts previously without it being enabled so if anything it might just slow the site down for a while, as it is the load is about 4 times what it normally is due to all the indexing going into the Database which is already big enough. I'm glad this only needs to be done once.

    if anyone really needs to do a search you can just go to google and type in what you're looking for followed by 'site:justcommodores.com.au' (without the inverted commas). google was always better anyway, hopefully the new vbulletin search is better than the old one

    the arcade also looks a bit screwy...

    EDIT: oh no! the new sad, happy, and poking out tongue smiley faces aren't as good as the old ones! why have only those ones changed? the old ones were better!

    Dude, there is only 1 page in this thread. The NSW general chat thread only has 86 pages?
