Looking very spiffy indeed. It looks like the upgrade is going reasonably close to plans, I'd guess.

Everything looking great. Keep it coming... but please next time you change something don't scare me. My heart did a scary bump bump when I couldnt get into LQ earlier today. He he he he.

I love it! Just like the old one, but crisper and cleaner. Navigation is way better now too... Great job

Nice to see the upgrade went well. I'm gonna have to have a play with a custom stylesheet because a lot of the vB3 stuff really isn't my cup of tea but that's on all vB3 forums, not just this one Good job Jeremy & co. Job well done!

I think there is more to the session expiration issue - I've cleared all linuxquestions cookies, and three times so far (the most recent in the midst of a very long post) my login expired.

There are two bugs:
1. The session expiration issue
2. In the event that a session is expired, the entered post is not being retained; when the user logs in, the post is forgotten, and the page returned upon login is that the link is invalid. What SHOULD happen is when the user logs in after being prompted upon submitting a post, that post should be retained and should be submitted to the thread in question, and the user should be returned to the thread where the message was submitted. Sorry about the run-on sentence, but it's a wee bit late.

Having the same problem with session expiration.
Also, LQ no longer remembers my login, so every time I open tha site, even though it remembers my username I need to log in.

Check this out dude

By the way boss jeremy, can I ask whats the point of having a profile picture if its not used as avatar in the posts. When I saw it I thought it would be used as in other forums. Bit disappointed it isnt.

We're looking into the session issue. I can't seem to reproduce it myself, but we're looking for similarities in those having problems. For those of you having problems, please try to:

Delete *all* LQ cookies and logout, close your browser and then try to log back in. Ensure that you click the "remember me" box, have cookies enabled in your LQ profile and your browser and also make sure no third party app is blocking cookies.

If you still have a problem after that, please post your OS/Browser/etc so we can get as much info together as possible. As for profile pics, that is for contributing members only as a perk. Avatars (as has been explained many times in the past) will not be enabled here at LQ for any usergroup.

I found I had to clear my cookies and stored password info in Firefox and it all seems to function correctly now. I actually cleared out the whole cache.

(I posted the following in a related thread as well)
The session expiry problem I was experiencing seems to be resolved. Clearing them in the firefox GUI didn't seem to resolve the issue - there were additional linuxquestions cookies the browser was not displaying. rm *linuxquestions* in the cookie directory resolved that issue.

I didn't check file permissions to see what was up (it was too late at night for me to care about the cause)

Does anybody know how I can return my Linare desktop and get my $ back?

He he he he he. Sorry, I know I shouldn't but I just couldn't help myself.

jerry taylor, please do not hijack someone elses thread like this.
