Guest | | (Ross) Category Error When Transferring Files (13th Nov 08 at 4:36pm UTC) | | Forum URL: http://REMOVED.vforums.co.uk/
Experienced By: Me
Problem: I'm reporting this and not heather because she will probably never catch this error, but when you transferred the files the whole category and board system got screwed up and I mean pretty bad. All the board/category id's got transferred into numbers for one, and two the category id's is really messed up. When you go to edit the boards, category's that ain't there show up and you go to remove them through the category's functions they category's ain't there, also some of the category's that are showing seem to be a duplicate of the first three category's on the forum. and if you edit the top three category's, you end up editing like the shadow copies instead, meaning you cant edit the category's at all..
Sorry if that is confusing...
Edit: also to tell you the category's that are really having the problem are: Miscellaneous & Health Matters | |

The board & category IDs are the same as they were on the previous forum. None would have changed (yes, they were created as numbers on the original forum).
Secondly, some look unorganized but are technically correct. Take for example there being two admin boards. One is the new one created on the new forum (before I was able to transfer anything). The other is the one transferred over from the old forum (both have different IDs). These can easily be merged into one board by using multi-moderation, but as it's not my forum it's best if members of staff from there do these kinds of reorganization. | |

Guest | | Re: (Ross) Category Error When Transferring Files (13th Nov 08 at 9:38pm UTC) | | ok i understand that, but umm there is still a problem with a connection between the category's...Anything that happens to one of the Miscellaneous category's, it happens to the other, so I am afraid of deleting one of them, because it might delete the other, and I think the Health Matters category might be the same way, other wise I could of cleaned it up without posting an error  | |
