    Tomorrow morning (September 8th), the forum will be taken down for a bit while I upgrade it to the latest vBulletin version. I expect the total downtime not to last longer than 1-2 hours.

    The new release solves a number of bugs, and enables us to unlock some new exciting potential. I played around with it before, but unfortunately there were some issues with it, that were solved in the new version.

    I'll bring the board back up ASAP, after testing the new functionality. Once the tests have been satisfying, I'll create an announcement on it. I'm thoroughly thrilled by what we potentially might be able to accomplish from tomorrow on forward, and I have confidence that you'll be equally thrilled when it is announced.

    Stay tuned....

    You want bad - here is Bad

    "Stop. Collaborate and LISTEN, VF is back with a brand new Version. Something. Got broken in the last one, will it ever stop........."

    and so on.....

    Oh and will it fix the Post Reply button at the bottom of a thread? The one at the top of a thread works - but the one at the bottom does not for me......

    Khaos, what browser are you using, exactly?

    I used both IE8 and FF, and had no issues with either.

    I use the latest version of FF.
    It's not completely broken, you can only click on the very top of it.

    Maybe we're talking about different reply buttons? Could you take a screenshot of where you encounter this problem, please?

    The post reply button at the bottom of the page can be fixed in FF by changing the CSS to read as follows:

    from
    .postlistfoot{display:block;width:100%;height:2em;clear:both;position:relative}

    to
    .postlistfoot{display:block;width:80px;height:50px;clear:both;position:relative;float:left;}

    In the showthread-rollup.css file
