theBubbler Up and Running

**Mike** · 09-30-2008, 08:22 AM

Thanks for waiting!

The newest version of theBubbler is up and running. The major changes have occurred in the user profile system. We removed Zoints in favor of vBulletin's built-in profiles. The forum software also features a multitude of enhancements to make thebubbler even better.

Well I'm sure we all survived the time out today.

I do have a quesiton about the upgrade though. On my personal page I noticed everything is all different and most of the things I had on is now gone. Pictures? All the comments left by friends..gone? Is there someway to get the comments back on?

Just wondering.

LOL!

By the way, the issue of not being able to set font sizes is fixed for me now.

Help!

My guestbook entries are gone, too.

I'm thinking Mike will restore them.

Mike?

Mike?!?!!?

The site seems a bit "cleaner" somehow, and I'm noticing a perceptible increase in the speed of pages loading

Thanks!

Rep Added, Mike.

The pictures are still in the gallery (they show as part of our post count.

It would be nice to see a gallery piece back on our Member page to tie-in to our own images in the gallery.

This is the big one, our guest books ... Hopefully we'll be able to get these back up (I must have had hundreds).

I think our friends lists remained intact this time around!

Anything else anyone has noticed?

I'm sure Mike will keep us posted.

I will look into getting your guestbook entries back, shouldn't be too much as all the data is still there, just needs to be converted to the new format.

As for gallery images, I have to figure out what direction we would like to go. vBulletin now has it's own user gallery option (it's disabled currently) similar to facebook's photo feature. We have to decide which of the systems we would like to use, possibly both.

I'd like to hear your recommendations this afternoon and we'll decide.

Thanks, Mike!

Mike shared some successes and great plans with me this afternoon (thanks).

Even with the downtime yesterday for upgrades we had more unique visitors than ever before ~ by about 50 people! Great seeing the google analytics on the traffic at our Wisconsin online community, too.

I'll let Mike tell you in a new thread about the coolest new thing we're adding VERY SOON....LIKE NOW! ::

Post Embedded Videos

Soooooo Cooooooool.
