    Dos not appear that RSS is enabled. It is a nice way to keep track of what is going on between visits.

    The "No input file specified" issue is a result of DNS, I believe. I think that should be squared away over the next 24 to 48 hours. As for the date format, I thought there was an option in your profile to adjust that, but it may only be a site wide setting. I will have to check.

    The new forum is looking good!

    A few minor teething troubles (eg. a lot of the time, loading any new page within the forum results in an otherwise blank page stating "No input file specified", refreshing usually causes the page to load properly), but I'm sure our esteemed admins will have it all shaken out soon enough.

    One quick question - is there any way that I can make the forum display dates in 'day-month-year' format rather than 'month-day-year'? I've had a look through the settings, and can't find any way to do that. I really have trouble wrapping my head around the US style middle-endian date format.

    Oddities - the "How To's" and the "Experimentation/Customization/Optimization" are telling:

    You may not post new threads
    You may not post replies
    You may not post attachments
    You may not edit your posts

    I kind of had that feeling too... I want to keep things stable and working until everything gets straightened out.

    If the duplicates are only over a few days, and have stopped (today's posts seem fine), the best thing to do might be to grin and bear it rather than risk messing up something!

    Do you see threads you've just posted as having unread posts? For me they show as read (which is correct, obviously). But the "New posts" link http://kubuntuforums.net/search.php?...e=vBForum_Post lists every thread updated since ... I suppose since you logged in; you have to look at the ones which are bold and have the Click image for larger version

Name:	firstnew.png
Views:	1
Size:	541 Bytes
ID:	639820 icon to see the actual new, unread posts. This seems fine to me (but I'm used to vB...)

    noticed a slight issue when i click new posts i now see posts that i have just added to. in SMF it used to show new posts as long as you were not the last poster. it could just be how this forum works, just thought i would point it out.

    The duplication appears to be an artifact of the data import. Fixing them as I see the duplicates is what I am doing as well, OS, but only in those threads that have activity.

    You might see some flipping back and forth between the old and new sites since DNS is still replicating. As for the issues listed above, I will take a look. I am not sure why things were duplicated, but it had to be due to the import process. I am fixing them as I see them.

    One oddity is that lots of posts over the past day or so seem to be duplicated. For example: System crash

    ... And another is that I got 500 Internal Server Errors on every page just now while looking for an example thread! imle that's a transient issue on the server though, and nothing to worry about unless it occurs a lot.
