    The owners of Empty Closets have just updated the vBulletin software to the latest v3.5.0 release. As a result there unfortunately a couple of little problems. I have notified them of these, so they will probably get fixed in the next couple of days.

    The problems I have noticed are:

    * Some smilies not working correctly (showing as code in the box on the editor page and not showing at all in messages).

    * Forum title incorrect (currently says "vBulletin Forums" not "Empty Closets" at the top of the browser).

    * Some avatars (the built-in ones I think) not displaying.

    If you notice any more, reply here with details so it's all in one place.

    Thanks for your patience! :slight_smile:
    Paul.

    The default server name (that goes out in emails and is used for the RSS feed info) is set to example.com and needs to be updated to emptyclosets.com

    Avatar/person info is displayed horizontally across messages rather than to the left like before, which was better.

    Quick reply seems to be working correctly for me. I'll test again though.

    None of the usual icons are showing at the bottom of posts (what was under the avatars previously).

    I got the forum naming fixed up, the RSS feeds turned on, and a bunch of other settings fixed. I'm still searching for the setting to make the post layout the way it was before... but I'll get that figured out shortly.

    If you guys can point me toward the smilies that aren't working I'll that would be be great.

    Smilies not working: most of them but particularly:

    icon_cry
    icon_smil
    thumbsup
    eusa_clap
    icon_cool
    icon_mad
    la
    eek
    eusa_naug
    icon_lol
    wink
    eusa_thin
    icon_sad

    Can't you take a look when you go to compose a reply? That's how I'm generating the above list.
