Did the forum software change/updated? Themes/Skins in particular?

Oh, like just on https://forum.netgate.com/search ?

Yes it was on this forum site. IIRC a grey banner across the search page, under the initial search fields, down a bit on the page. Said Advanced Search or something like that. Sorry for being vague, didn't know to document it. :)

archive.org for it shows the redirect to /login.

[stephenw10]

Let me see, I can't see any setting for that in the admin, might be some incompatible plugin....

[johnpoz]

@stephenw10 well that would suck if this versions search doesn't allow you set dates, like before you could say only show results from the last week or month.

And I could look for just my own posts, or just yours for example - not anybody that ever used a title or title and post text that said "nic driver" for example..

[stephenw10]

Yup, it would. Waiting to hear back from the server admins.

[JonathanLee]

@johnpoz my thumbs up is bigger now also I use Edge, maybe I will get more thumbs up

[stephenw10]

Advanced search options are restored. Not quite the same as before but should be functionally the same.

[rcoleman-netgate]

@stephenw10 Missing the click-to-newest message thing really bad now.

[johnpoz]

@stephenw10 yeah I don't really care how it looks as long as functions and read it.. Seems to have the stuff like poster and date - sweet.

[JonathanLee]

It's smooth.

[SteveITS]

@stephenw10 Thanks. The "new message/thread" banner is still borked:

[johnpoz]

@SteveITS yeah I still seeing this problem @stephenw10 is someone looking into this?

I am using the cyborg theme now.. I have looked on multiple themes and seems to be across all of them that I have checked.

[stephenw10]

Hmm, what should appear there? I don't think I ever used that....

I see:

[johnpoz]

@stephenw10 it only shows up when there are new posts.. I don't recall the exact text, but it would say something like 3 new posts, or 2 new posts, etc.

It would pop up when new posts came in and you were on that page.

edit: adding to post to see if it pops up in another window

[johnpoz]

@johnpoz new post

edit: see when I created a new post it shows up, but it use to have text in it.. saying like new post or 3 new posts, etc.

That blank little square that shows up doesn't say what it is - even if was like a button that said click here to see new posts or something..

[JonathanLee]

@johnpoz I see this also that little bar next to new discussion

[SteveITS]

@stephenw10 What John said, but it shows if you leave your browser on the "unread" page for a time and the page wants you to know someone else posted so you need to reload the page. Not a big deal obviously but a bug somewhere.

Anyone else noticing read threads don't bring you to the latest post anymore?

[w0w]

This is what the menu looks like on android 9, galaxy tab or when you switch to desktop (pc) view on mobile Android 12

[rcoleman-netgate]

@Jarhead yes.

Just clicking on the date/time link to the most recent post gets me near the end of the thread but I normally right-click that link and select open in a new tab. However, that now always opens at the first post. Using Firefox 114.0.2 on Win 10.

Also seeing the problem Johnpoz reported regarding new post notifications.
