I've just in the last day or two not been able to view http://warsug.info/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=13415 , the current pursuits thread? Comes up 'No posts exist for this topic'. Anyone else in the same boat or just me? Seems like people are responding in it as I keep getting the emails!
Only guess is the thread is just too long?
(starting a thread from a convo here: http://warsug.info/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=13419#13419 )
Can't view the current pursuits thread!
Re: Can't view the current pursuits thread!
That was my guess. I think it's fixed now.

Not being the most technical minded fella in the world can I put an idea forward as to why it happens.
Could, and I stress could, it be that due to some people (me included) having pics in their signatures and then changing/deleting them for whatever reasons, would alter the length of the thread.
So it would click over to the next page, couple of sigs are changed/deleted and the thread adjusts but leaves it open at the original page number until it catches up?
Did I explain that right???? Am I on the right track ???? OR like the NRL trophy am I on the wrong plane!
Walks.

Hmm. Interesting thought but I don't think so as the pages are dynamically generated from both the post and sig data.Walks wrote: Could, and I stress could, it be that due to some people (me included) having pics in their signatures and then changing/deleting them for whatever reasons, would alter the length of the thread.
I'm not sure why the weirdness happened but I'm quite happy to see it doesn't appear to have happened again

Ok. I've run a clean on the database.Admin wrote:Seems that it's a bug in phpbb (the forum software). Lots of people have had the same problem, but no resolution yet.
Still looking...
As I understand it when we delete some posts it can get mixed up with posts from spammers who's accounts have been deleted. This seems to confuse phpbb. Hopefully (at the risk of repeating myself ) it won't happen again.
If you enter a thread on the last page and it gives the "no posts found" error, just click on the page previous and all should be ok. (i.e. if the thread shows 7 pages but the 7th doesn't work, the conversation should be on page 6)
I don't want this problem happening again so if people could email or PM me if they notice it in other threads again and I'll look into it futher.
Cheers,
Gavin.
