Hi Folks, having another Problem.

The Topics on our Forums are actually not showing up on the "index" but they are "there", as you have the topic URL you can view the topic. That problem is appearing for more than one Board.. but you can also see the "Path" and it's at the correct location..



here the topic .. opened via Link



...??

Sounds like a database problem.  Did you change anything. install a mod, edit code?

Have you tried Admin -> Forum Maintenance -> Find and repair any errors?

UPDATE: It seems like some users are actually able to see the topics, some not!!
Also I noticed the Page-Numbers are still there, topics missing.


Here you see the Page Numbers are still there... but no topics!

I HOPE there are sulutions!

Does it happen in Curve?  Anything in your error log?

Appearing in all Themes; no Errors in the Error log.

I would do a clean test install in another directory, link it to your production database, see if the problem persists.

if you do that, you need to remember to fix your paths and then your production forum will no longer function correctly. it is better to copy the database to a new one and fix the paths there.

Sir Osis of Liver

Just for a quick check, in and out.  Simpler than getting involved in the export/import hassle, which is problematic on many hosts.

Looks like you've installed a mod that's screwed up everything.  Which mods are you running?

Hello,

I am using the latest version of Mozilla FireFox with an Ad Blocker.

EDIT: oops, thank you "Sir"
Your forum appears to be functioning normally. Various Topics and replies appear.

I took a FULL screenshot of the page and am attaching it (I believe that all members are requested to NOT place images and photos in the post, but instead should attach them).

Be Well,
Siriist
Needed information:
- What's your SMF version?, What MODs are installed? What Theme(s) are you using? Have you backed up your database?

--> At least 50% of the questions asked are answered in the Online Manual <--
Mods for ver 1.x will NOT run on ver 2.x

Sir Osis of Liver

No, they do not.  If you look at your screenshot, you'll see that last post topics are all 'N/A', and there are no links to the topic.  If you go to message index, it's a mess.  Same in the theme he's running, and default Curve.  Most likely cause is a borked mod.

Sorry folks, Ive "posted" the link from the Forums where I did a clean install and impleneted the database.

The main Forum where the problem appears is https://gljclan.com


DarkTexas

I just imported a Backup into the test forums (https://gljclan.com/forums) and used the "Convert to UTF.." function.. on the Testforums (clean) the topics are back after that step.
I tried the same on the "final forums", no success.

I uninstalled all recent new mods.. no sucess =(

This bs appeared when I was deleting members which were not logged in for 60 days or longer.

I think I've seen this happening after a conversion.

Did you try the "Recount totals" Maintenance option?
