Ladies,
A huge thank you to all for your patience and understanding these last few days. I know it has been hard for you to not be with your friends and your hair care online resource but as we have explained it was a task that had to be completed and there was no way around it.
Due to the volume of our data, the import took a lot longer than expected. The fact that some (..... whistles....) were hitting the refresh button relentlessly slowed things a bit. At one point I had to take the site completely off public viewing so that the gallery import can be completed.
There are still a lot of things to be addressed. I opted for opening the forum even with those "glitches" than keeping it offline for more. You noticed that initially all the forums were not showing up, slowly I enabled the permissions for them. Additionally there was an issue, that has now been resolved, where one could not edit their posts or view their personal card.
I have installed an additional style (see bottom left of your screen... all the way to the bottom) and click the "Default Style". You have the option to select the vb style, which is the same style as our old forum. If that is better for your viewing pleasure, don't hesitate to use it. More styles in more colors will be coming soon.
Some of the things remaining
As for the trophies, this is something that the forum comes with and you get some trophies by completing some tasks i.e. your first post, someone liked your post etc. And no, you don't get trophies taken from you if you were hitting that F5 button (refresh) on the landing page, while the forum was offline
Thank you once more!! You are the best!
