Isn't there an RSS feed for this? I want it on my Google homepage!

I am unable to duplicate that issue. The auto login seems to be working for me in Firefox. What browser are you using that exhibits that issue, and when did that issue start?

Defaultly, no there is no RSS feed, although they could install a mod, but they might not.

No quick reply? Or people's names made into a link for easy addressing?

Quick reply is a mod - Whenever you upgrade the forum, you have to add the mods by hand...I'm sure they will get around to it sooner or later

Yeah, but I was hoping they'd have all the mods ready to go before pushing an upgrade.

That was the intent, but it's gotten so bad with spammers and such that just getting it upgraded became more important. Give it time, and it will be done.

Good work, Blast.

EDIT: Yay, "first new post" and page navigation work correctly!

I'm in Firefox 2 also, no problems here - it wanted my login info once, of course, on my first visit after the upgrade, but checking the "Remember Me" box did the trick here...Perhaps a modem reset would help?

I thought that the thread I visited was locked due to the lack of a quick-reply and un-clickable names, until I saw this. Cleared things up a bit.

ahh yes the lack of quick reply is a bit irritating. Anyways, Win I too ran into the problem. Im using Firefox 2 as well and it seems they must have upgraded on your last login and it reset everything for you so dont worry, it hopefully wont be like that forever

Quick reply is fixed now. I missed the part that updated the SQL for the new quick reply mod. It has more options in the Profile page that lets you configure the quick reply box.

I notice something... When I hover into the box for a forum it lightens a little bit, but then if I click in the box but not the link, nothing happens. Before the upgrade, if I click in the box, I was taken directly to that forum, no matter if I'm clicking the box or the link. I think that might be a mod that someone forgot, and I really would like it back.

that was removed for a reason. It screws up some browsers.
