I have been asked to stop bumping other people's posts and to make my own thread. My thinking was that the same issue should be in the same thread for others to find. Pardon my fumbling. I've been trying to be patient and figure out all my issues on my own and I have solved a lot of them, but here are some that remain. The good news is that my list of solved issues (not here) is about equal to the unsolved, so I am making progress.
Thank you for any assistance you can give me.
1. Does not stay logged in, even if box is ticked. (it did for about 2 days, then stopped working again!)
2. Unread posts link (that works). My own posts show up as unread. The search results include unread items. This is REALLY a crimp in my work flow not having a link to click to read all my unread posts. I can use "today's posts" link for similar results, but either link does not give me unread, especially if older than 24 hours.)
(I'm using this link I found in the forum: http://www.domain.com/forum/search?searchJSON={%22unread_only%22:1,%22view%22:%22topic%22,%22exclude_type%22:[%22vBForum_PrivateMessage%22]}
3. Private threads do not show with private notification to guests (not logged in). In other words, in vB4, those without permissions could still see the forum area, but not the threads. There was a choice to have it say "private" or the number of posts, but not let them see the threads. I have classes in my forum and I would like unlogged/guests to see that all the class threads are there, but not see what is in them until they have permissions to do so.
4. Only admin can see "comment" link on posts. I've tried several settings. Apparently, there have been reports that occasionally someone will see it in just one thread, but not others.
5. Email with error regarding subscriptions. See this thread here on vBulletin.com
6. There's a notification for a new profile message, but it does not have a link. I cannot see these messages on my own profile.
7. Post icons work in admin and in compose/edit box, but do not show in forum. (See this thread.)
11. Trouble uploading avatar (file size exceeds the limit) - (may be fixed, waiting on forum user to confirm)
12. Avatar images on posts do not always stay larger. (discussed this here)
13. User Rank and Promotions Not Working (work in progress)
14. I would like option for shorter url's. I link forum threads to html pages for class lessons. If I change the name of a forum area (channel), the url will change and I will have to update all those pages.. It seems the old url's on my html pages still work (just the thread number in the url).
15. CALENDAR? Is there no calendar? It's been in every version of VB I've owned!
