Dear GourmetStyleWellness Members:

Due to a bug introduced by the makers of this forum software, all image attachments members have uploaded for the last 13 years were deleted by the database during the upgrade we did last week.

The only solution being offered by the developers is to restore back to previous version and install a patch. This meant we were forced to revert to the forums as they were, on May 23. So a full week of posts and conversations has been lost. This is a big part of why we are bailing on this software, as it is no loner being properly supported by the developers. Sincerest apologies to everyone who has lost a full week of time and effort in their posts here.

We will be converting to the new software over the next several days and do not anticipate any problems, but your patience is very much appreciated if any are encountered. In the end we'll come out the other side with a much better, more stable, and far more desktop/mobile/tablet-friendly forum.

13 years of images lost + 1 week of conversations? Meh, still more active than Bald Truth Talk.

We got all the attachments back, by losing 1 week of posts. :)

By the way we are leaving vBulletin and going to another software system. The new forums have this option:

"Enhanced Search is designed to give significantly better search performance and additional search options to your users. It is built on top of elasticsearch, which is in turn built on top of Lucene. This gives excellent performance, even with millions of pieces of content. Elasticsearch allows nearly infinite scalability and redundancy by silently allowing searches to be run across multiple servers. Additionally, you benefit from a very small stopword list and no minimum word length, allowing nearly any search to return meaningful results. Elasticsearch also provides support for returning results based on how relevant they are to your search. You can select relevancy ordering on the advanced search page."

Yeah everything. Sorry. This is why we're bailing on this software.
