    Bottom info panel gone - Why, oh why?!?

    I had an habit of going to the bottom of the forum's main page to check the latest thread updates. Why is that panel gone? Where is it now? I need a hug...

    It's been gone a couple weeks. I don't know where it went.

    So teach me how you do the thing with the printer ... =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

      I sort of miss it also, I used to check out the birthday list.

        It's just another undocumented feature.

            I just noticed this thread, I turned it off a while ago because it was grinding up our server with a Zillion database queries a day which was contributing to some server crashing issue were were enjoying. I didn't realize it was that missed. I will look at turning it back on but maybe putting it on it's own page so it doesn't need to load so often.

              I made some adjustments and turned this back on for full members and above, guests and users with less that 3 posts will not be able to see the stats. Hopefully those restrictions will keep the server load at a reasonable level.

              The stats can be found at the bottom of the forum home page: http://www.copytechnet.com/forums/forum.php

              let me know if you run into any problems.

                  Gone again. Too heavy on the server?

                  Cheers!

                    I have it turned off while we do some troubleshooting on another issue we have been having. I don't want to get too detailed but don't worry, the stats will be back in the near future.

                      Why is your name Aneurysm? Was Pancreatic Cancer taken?

                      I love your site, but seriously, just the word alone makes my stomach ill.

                            Had it off for a while while trying to hunt down a problem with inbound Google links redirecting users somewhere else (when clicking on a Google search that was supposed to link to a page on our site). Hopefully we have figured it out but only time will tell. It is back on for full members and above, guests and users with less that 3 posts will not be able to see the stats.
