Forum: Site News, Problems & Suggestions

I was trying to add a new feature and accidentally deleted everything from the /forums directory on the server. Thankfully it wasn't the gallery folder which has all the images in it. Will have to make sure to back everything up better and figure out why my ftp program went bonkers.

We are on a new server and I finally worked my way through upgrading all the site's scripts. Things are just barely back together and I know the skin is a bit of a mess, but I wanted to get it turned back on because I don't know how long it will take me to finish this. There are a LOT of new...

With our new system here, we can easily promote a forum post to the article system. There have been many informative posts over the years here, so help us identify your favorite instructional posts that we can add to the articles.

We migrated to a new server last evening. Let me know in this thread if you see any problems. We are still using the old server DNS, but will be transitioning that over the next couple of days. I am going to start working on migrating all our scripts to the latest Vbulletin as soon as this is...

I would like to make an announcement! Trish was the local winner for the Kelby Photo Walk... her image has been submitted to the national competition for judging by Scott Kelby himself... Here is the image that has been nationally submitted: Congrats Trish!!!

PhotoPost has finally upgraded vBGallery that we use extensively here on NEF, so I can now proceed to upgrade the site to vBulletin Version 4, which is a whole new platform. I am not sure exactly when I'm going to do it, but hopefully I can make time soon. The site design will be totally trashed...

I've tried several times to upload photos to the gallery, but after I click submit, all I get is a blank browser window. What's going on?

Hi all, I am doing some server upgrades to prepare for a likely move to the new vBulletin 4.0 and it looks like we ran into a PHP compatibility problem with the current scripts. The errors shouldn't cause any problems, and only seem to be showing on the home page, so if you find other problems,...

**Notice of section add** Weather section which has been added under Nature

I wanted to get this post out to everyone way ahead of time. Currently we are running vB 3.5.4... we are a few versions behind which should update a lot of security issues and make the forum run more smooth. With that though will come some downtime of the forum. It may take a couple days to...

I've had this wild idea for quite a while now and have been trying to figure out how we could do it. I'm going to put it on here for discussion and see if more minds might be able to come up with something that would work. I have a couple of shelves full of photography books and DVD training...

I know there are a few of us who have at least fairly advanced mobile devices with good web-browsing capability. :ideaIs there any functionality available with VB Advanced to have a mobile version of the site?

Ok, leave it to a Newbie... I should probably know this already but I can't seem to find the answer. How do you post images into the actual thread (not an attached image)? Like this thread for instance, the images do not appear to be hosted on a 3rd party site. Help?

Hey all you admins, and mods.. As you know I shoot with people in the studio, and now so do a few other people, I wanted to request a "Studio" as a new NEF Photography Genres classification to cover all the studio stuff, and related image work. I realize that this really is covered in many...

Is anyone else noticing a lag while this current ad completes its download to the page?

Because of overloading and excessive traffic, we are upgrading the server that we share with a couple of other sites including PDAPhoneHome. We have run on the existing server for three plus years. Our current server is a Dual Xenon 2.8Ghz, 2G RAM, and EIDE disks. The new server will be...

We would like to apologise for any access problems you have been having with our site. It seems that someone has been attacking the server that our site as well as another resides and it has been causing the troubles. While we should be ok now a DOS attack can happen at any time so we will do...
