    After the upgrade - post issues here

    Hello,

    the forum software has been upgraded to vBulletin 4.1.8. In the course of that upgrade, some customisations of the forum have been reset to default and need to be re-applied manually. Please use this thread to list functionality that has been dropped.

    Making a start:

    Excel version no longer showing in user info on top right of post

    When viewing a thread the forum rules link has moved to the quick navigation drop down. Not an issue as such, more an observation.

    Use code tags when posting your VBA code: [code] Your code here [/code]

    I'd like to see the old "Child of....." Skin available.

    ...also "Quick Links" - should always be available - If you use "New posts" it isn't there......

    The icon for Excel attachments is broken. The linked image http://www.excelforum.com/images/attach/xls.gif does not seem to exist. This happened before the upgrade, too, at least in the "child of ..." skin.

    Still getting the Database Error when trying to connect... And also really need access to the old posts and started threads. It would be a big blow to the site if these were lost.

    I know what you mean John. It's really difficult to work with compared to the last version and I'm entirely sure what the new features are. I just want my old posts

    it's easier to have an icon/button "old version" and "new version" as yahoo mail has!
    well, it's really difficult to navigate through.

    According to Twitter the old (new) skin will be back soon I think.
