Question about the new 24hr mode of the SDMB.

Until the server migration it was 23 and a half. Now it’s permanently up.
I noticed when it moved to Vbuletin 3 that any mention of a doper’s name during one period of up-time would not turn up in a search until after the down-time.

Now that there will be no down time, will the search turn up references to a doper’s name right after the posting of the name?

Yes.

Well Answered. Thanks :slight_smile:

p.s. that [first] link actually worked!!

I just did an experiment and typed http://google/ and it worked as well. Odd.

I think we got an all-night drive thru with the upgrade, too.

what browser? It didn’t work for me in IE but it did in firefox.
I typed ‘google’ in firefox and got http://www.google.com/search?&q=%s&sourceid=firefox

Firefox. My IE was hijacked by CoolWebSearch and I’ve yet to get around to fixing it. Might not either… this computer’s a loaner until I get a real one anyway.

Was that supposed to redirect me to http://www.yesworld.com ?

He got his bits the wrong way round in the code. By sheer luck it worked anyway. So, to answer your question, I don’t think so.
