Please post if you notice any attachments or link either not working or returning a blank image.
thanks

Just realized all the attachments in this thread: http://ww2aircraft.net/forum/il-2-sturmovik-pilot-s-lounge/hammered-home-screenshots-15102.html are missing with the exception of the last page

Also noticed several sigs aren't loading (Redbeard's, for example).

Ok....well this is going to be a bitch to fix.

Apparently when updated forum software to latest version -- it "fixed" a bug by deleting attachments that weren't properly attached to post.......well that's bullshit in my opinion.

I have a backup of the data before transfer, so attachments are not lost. However, to get them to display I have to merge the old database with the new one -- so that's what I have to work on to properly add them.

I just did a manual check and db modification along with recovering one image from that thread. It now shows. So, I know the steps and can confirm they work to recover attachments. Next step automate it -- cause there is a good 50,000+ to recover

I've noticed that the pictures in my older posts have disappeared

Edit: I just had a look at my 1:1 cockpit thread which I've had going since 2010 and it looks like all the pictures I posted before April 2011 are gone

I'm working on fix to recover them...just will take a little effort and testing. But they aren't lost - I recovered one manually to test.

Missing attachments in this thread. Would be great if they could be restored. http://ww2aircraft.net/forum/aircraft-markings-and-camouflage/raf-markings-camouflage-9316.html?highlight=british+markings

I went through the entire thread and all links there work. What attachmernt do you mean Andy?

With well over 50,000 attachments (and sigs, etc.), it's going to take some time to transfer the old database over to the new one and get the server to adapt to the former attach/embed requests.

I was just there the other day and everything is gone. Take a look at this post. The picture Paul is referring to is not there. Happens in many others as well.

 

[Wurger]

I see.

I've noticed some of my very old threads with pics missing. Just blank. Checking my BoB thread now......


EDIT: Yup, BoB thread wiped out.

Still missing. And...................................................... "Get Lucky" is wiped out! Oh, the horror!!

 

[GrauGeist]

Also noticed several member's sigs missing like in this thread for example: Airframes, Crimea_River (and Micdrow's sig in Andy's screenshot) and Wurger.

 

[Wurger]

Yep... and also I can't see the bar with the Give me Bacon! / Likes - Like this post / Dislikes - Dislike this post menu.

 

[horseUSA]

Can't see it anywhere? or just this thread? or just your posts?

I've been working on the fix for attachments. Testing on backup database -- too make sure it works proper -- before running on live database.

I can't see them anywhere for my posts. Airframes seems to have the same problem with his siggy although the bar with the menu can be seen in his posts. And again I can't make the forums read by double clicking.
