Bugs/Issues after upgrade to XF2.1

It never did, it's just the "new posts" button on desktop-sized, I thought.
Anecdotally, my performance is actually up (though still nothing to write home about)

It went up for me too, when I took care of a lot of outdated templates. But now it's back to chugging while Dave runs a rebuild. Should clear up in a bit.

Well, I mean, you could still do what you planned and work on this ancillary stuff as time allows. It's not like the forum is DOWN.
Yeah, some things (like anon posting) are a important to get up relatively quickly, but a lot of stuff (double posting, new posts button,...) are really just QOL things. It'd be nice to have them back, but I don't think anyone'll be leaving over them being gone for a week or so. Please don't sacrifice your entire weekend just for this, the forum is theoretically still meant as a hobby/social thing, even for you.

Also, both you guys' work is much appreciated.
If you scrolled up and read the actual thread, you'd see why.
Well, it works as well as it did before the update, at least.GasBandit said:
imgur stuff is still displayed centered horizontally in a window that’s 1000px wide by 10px tall* on mobile, putting it waaaaay over to the right and half cut off. I don’t know whether to blame the add-on or imgur for that, though.

Maybe blame imgur. The Reddit Enahncement Suite does the same thing to me when loading inline imgur documents on desktop. But only if the base url is used, and not the image-specific (ending in .jpg, .png, etc) url is used.

Smilies are not working for me.

Yeah. I'm working in the DB right now. I'm getting an error that there's a table missing in the rebuild. I may have to remove everything and just reinstall.Just a heads up, I tried rebuilding a reaction already and even though I fed it the right image file URL, all the reactions were coming up blank.
And yeah, smilies tab stopped working for me too. But the BBcodes for themstill work

Can't. History has been wiped.
I mean that all the likes I just did in this thread, should be interpreted as (one of the above).
Also, boooooohhhhh for wiping the history. Boooooooooooohhhh

Those are already gone too, because they used a the old "like" system instead of the new reaction addon.

That's because of the many uninstalls/reinstalls I've been doing to try and fix the DB issues. We were getting an error that there was a table that wasn't present after I removed the old version.
We'll see wonky shit like this until I finally get things fixed. We'll probably stay with the old reactions version, which is stupid because it wasn't supposed to work with XF2.1 but looks like it is. Which means I "upgraded" that addon for nothing.

The biggest problem is that the old version of the reactions and the new are not utilizing the same code. In other words, most XF mods update once you upload the new code. In this case it installed it as a separate addon. Which means we had two addons doing the same thing at the same time and it's caused nothing but issues.
Right now I can keep #1 and get a shitload of error messages which HAS to be slowing us down. Or I can reload #2 and see if I can get it to work, but that gives an error message as well. It's frustrating. And this thread has now become my personal blog.
