    • Most things are working.

    However, I found a problem with the Anonymous subforum, so I had to disable it for now. I should have it fixed soon.

    I agree. But a little bit of change is always good every now and then.

    • Great job Matthew!  It must have taken a lot of hard work and perseverance to say the least.

    • I noticed last night the there was a problem with "anonymous" in that all the named posters had come up as anonymous - their names has been removed. Now this morning when I went to look again I didn't see any anonymous threads. I was quite pleased, in view of the abuse and overuse the anonymous section has been getting of late. Now I see that you've taken it down to work on it.

    You're doing a great job, Matthew, and I'm getting used to it.

    • I just added a new feature: the old CathInfo links now redirect seamlessly to the new site!

    Links that take the form
    http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php/An-orthodox-bishop-speaks
    or
    http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php?a=topic&t=28666&min=6&num=3

    Will now automatically redirect to the new site.

    Any links that used "index.php" instead of "catholic.php" will end up on the new site, but you won't go directly to the post. "index.php" is the headquarters of the new software, so it's already taken. 

    "catholic.php" however was wide open, so I wrote a script to take the URLs, do various lookups, and take you to that topic on the new site.

    Actually, it should. The site's default character encoding is UTF-8

    これはうまくいくと思います.

    • I'm going to have to start a "daily tips" section, to slowly (1 per day) teach y'all all the new features of this new forum software.

    For example, if you look at the sidebar on the right, the "Catholic Info - Info Center", there is a little graphic on the very RIGHT with a >> on it.  If you click that graphic, the sidebar will shrink away and disappear, leaving the whole screen for the "main part". Go check it out.
