Where can I find support 3.7 skins?

MissStacie — Fri, 16 May 2008 23:57:55 +0000

I want to change the look of my forum but have not found any 3.7 skins. I purchased one but it's for 3.6.8 and I'm unable to install it :(

restore missing posts.

Orp — Fri, 16 May 2008 23:55:27 +0000

I've been running forums for a few years now but never had the occasion to have to restore missing posts.
I do now. Server maintenance failed. They had to revert to a two day old backup, so now I'm missing posts. I have a backup I made which has the majority of the missing ones, but since we've been back up for the past hour we've had new posts. The only solution appears to me to be a sql command to merge the two without dupes. I know the concept but have no idea how to accomplsh this.
Help please.

“spam” post by unregistered user

johnmont — Fri, 16 May 2008 23:24:54 +0000

I'm getting a post from a bot (I assume) that is posting in a category and not actually a "postable" forum. However, when I try to check out the user, I find the user doesn't exist:

"This user has not registered and therefore does not have a profile to view."

Unregistered members have "NO" set to all lines in custom permissions for this forum category.

I'm running an older version of vbulletin due to the large amount of customizations I've done -- and hoping to hold of upgrading until 4 comes out....

Any thoughts on how this might be squeaking by? And yeah...I know I should upgrade. :)

XMBForum Import failed

Hi everyone,

I recently bought vbulletin to upgrade my forum from xmbforum. I was running the Impex fine until I came to the posts import section. I received something like 20 emails with similar contents like:
