In these early minutes of the new forum, give me a little bit of grace to squash bugs and implement things that are obviously needed. There will probably be a few things that I need to fix over the next few days, but it's my hope that we get everything set up by draft day. Thanks for your patience, I appreciate it!

Yep, the Bold Purple is hard to tell the difference between it & black. It looks good when typing the post, but when posted, not so much.

I think I can try to see if I can get that fixed. I think the issue is that the editor's color selection should be the same as what is posted. I can look int that after checking to make sure we have as many speed and responsiveness abilities applied as possible

Noticing not every reply is showing in a thread, but they are being quoted instead...

That make sense?

For example in the Jacoby thread, I am seeing Sticky's reply to my post, Maroons post but not the reply posts themselves like the older forum.

That is so weird! All of Sticky's post show up with all the quoted posts, but the original post of those he quoted isn't there. The last post by JIT shows, but wonder if he's "quoted", if it goes away too.

@Mike Olson  ~ I just quoted JIT in a post & his original is still there. However, none of the original quoted posts are. They are all still missing.

I fiddled with it too and had the same thing happen...I posted in that link moments ago with a quote and just a reply too.

I noticed in the BREZ THREAD that Supa's latest post quoted Montana, but the Montana post he quoted was still in the thread and showing individually.

Found it — this isn't a code bug. Look at posts 273107, 273110, 273113: Sticky is quoting purplefaithful, MAD GAINZ, and MaroonBells via embedded <blockquote> HTML, but none of those three users have any posts in this thread. There are only 9 posts in thread 22839 total.

Sticky was quoting posts from other threads (or from the old MyBB forum where those posts existed in the same thread but weren't fully migrated). The quoted content is embedded directly in Sticky's post body — the original posts simply don't exist in this thread.

When Cricket quotes JIT (post 273322), JIT's original IS in this thread, so it stays. But when Sticky quotes purplefaithful/MAD GAINZ/MaroonBells, there's no original post to find — they're cross-thread or unmigrated quotes.

This is a migration artifact, not a forum bug. Those MyBB posts either:

  1. Were quoted from a different thread in MyBB (MyBB lets you quote any post anywhere), or

  2. Existed in this same MyBB thread but weren't included when the data was imported

Nothing to fix on the forum side — the posts Cricket expects to see were never in this thread's data. Worth letting Cricket know so they understand what they're seeing.

Form Claude because my saturday brain isn't working great and this one was complicated. I think it's because of old posts from the old site.

This hurts my brain? So things are working correctly in the BREZ thread?

They appear to be...IT must just be a glitch to live with until the old posts from the old forum go away.
