The Pagan Circle

Hoping this resolves a few issues some users have been having.... BUT... from what I have been reading... it could be a combination of a few things.

Vista recently updated...
Internet Explorer recently updated....
phpBB3 (the software for the message board) also did an update....

Sometimes.... they do not agree with each other. *hands in the air*

I updated the forum software to 3.0.5.... however, I also see they have plans for version 3.0.6 coming up soon. (3.0.5 was just released May 31st)

****Read my note below about 3.0.6


In the meantime... I am hoping 3.0.5 resolves a few of the issues.

If you are also having troubles since you downloaded Internet Explorer 8.... it may ALSO have to do with "Compatibility View".
Try going to Tools--> Compatibility View Settings --> and "add" thepagancircle.com

Microsoft is having several issues with Compatibility View right now, and also Firewall settings getting messed up too.

I have a few Firewall issues since I updated to IE-8. I have Windows Firewall Disabled because I use Norton... but there are still a few sites that will not load some pages, etc. (Mostly secure sites) I heard this is a common problem. "Compatibility View" resolved my issues (so far) with loading TPC (because it is considered an older version)... however I am still getting Firewall errors when I try to load another site I frequent.

Since phpBB has updated to 3.0.5 I am hoping that will fix the Compatibility Issues and NOT consider the board "an older version" (because that is just insulting! *lol* ) but... if it does not... there will be 3.0.6 soon and I am pretty happy with the phpBB staff trying to consistently make updates needed... especially since they have done SEVERAL just this year to address common security/compatibility issues. *shaking head* Sometimes I am glad I do not have a computer corp anymore to deal with never ending updates like that... *lol* But don't worry..... the board I can handle.... *grinning* I just wait on the phpBB programmers to to the work and then I take and use the work they have done! *grins*



**** I'll keep an eye out for 3.0.6 and install it as soon as possible... but from what I understand 3.0.5 dealt with a couple bugs and 3.0.6 will concentrate on a few new features available.

From reading the plans for 3.0.6 there is not to much I may implement right now.
Some useful behind the scene updates dealing with security / ATOM Feeds/ Cache / ACM plugins / Group Management

Ahhhhhh! Shaitan will be happy about the updates for "PM Reply/Reply to all" So you can choose who to reply to when Group Messages are sent Example: The actual sender, or the whole Group.

*smirks* It will just be an issue of explaining to her how to actually do it properly. *raises finger* BUT... I can explain with pictures! *winks*

More to be announced as they work on it more.
