New web site

[OOnaOwl]

Sign in issues:
I have to sign in twice to be accepted with the new website.
This has happened the past few days every time I sign in.
The first sign in seems to be approved but then it reverts back to the sign in page.
The second sign in "sticks" and I am inside the forum.

Make sure you click the button that says "keep me signed in"

I should have clarified-it kicks me off immediately after I sign in as though I never signed in a moment before. But when I sign in a second time immediately following the first sign in it "sticks" and I am signed in for the duration of my visit.

I was always on the forums, especially Jeff's. But whenever I search now, I'm getting a message "No suitable matches were found." I have entered Vitamin E, iodine, starvation mode - works I have successfully searched in the past. I sure would appreciate help! I must be doing something wrong but I have no idea what. Thanks!

I panicked ! I thought the forums were gone! I thought maybe the site was sold when Dr McDougall retired.
So happy to see they are still here.

I am finding the same, searching isn’t working for me.

I, too, am getting this:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Expression #1 of ORDER BY clause is not in SELECT list, references column 'phpbb_061021.p.post_time' which is not in SELECT list; this is incompatible with DISTINCT [3065]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the Board Administrator if this problem persists.
Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: [email protected]

when I search posts for a particular user. I do that a lot because I like to read previous posts from veteran McDougallers.

Also (this may have been mentioned before) there is no way to access the main McDougall site from the forums.

I have sent all the above issues to the IT team and we will see what they can do about them

Thanks.

If anything else comes up, let me know

I can't look up my old posts, and can't delete my posts.

The following should be working now

“Search user’s posts” functionality is now working. A user can now click “Search user’s posts” to see all the posts by a specific user

A user can also now search for a specific keyword amongst posts by a specific user via Advanced Search:

There’s one remaining issue we are investigating where a couple keywords appear to only return a subset of available posts (specifically, posts written since the migration), but the above should be fully resolved. I will follow up when I have a further update.

I will keep you updated

Jeff,
Can you ask them to return the logo and link to the main website to the top of the forum pages, and to return the website search (Not just the forum search) there, too?

Yes! Thanks.

Thanks for all your comments.

I have started a new thread for any new issues that come up.

You can access it here....

to keep everything new in one place, I am going to lock this thread.

Thanks

I will say I am really happy to finally see this on the new HOME webpage. When you say all or nothing, that turns some ppl away. Kudos!

Just as an FYI, this is from page 1 of The McDougall Plan, published in 1983.
