    When you did the conversion, did you revert back to an old backup? Everything posted in the past few days is gone. Examples: The Florida Sightings (which has multiple posts almost every day) jumps from Monday 4:57PM to tonight at 9PM. The Hasbro New/Restocked thread stops last Saturday even though I posted a reply to someone today.:confused:

    Nevermind, apparently there were warnings, but I (and others) never saw any. Were they at the top of the forums no matter how you read them? I know I always went to User CP to read my subscribed threads and rarely went to the main Boards menu.

    Yeah, they were stickied at the top of every forum, to give folks notice this was coming and posts after the date quoted would NOT carry over. :)

    Okay, so if you just went straight to threads you would never see the stickied posts. Really should have just been integrated into the top of the page template (assuming the old VB could even do that) so that it showed up all the time no matter where you were on the boards. Oh well. No big loss.
