Outdated / Not Implemented Subforum no longer visible

[valneq]

I realized that the "Outdated / Not Implemented" subforum is no longer visible in the overview.

However, the topics in there can still be found by search.

Furthermore, the "Ideas and Suggestions" section kept telling me there were unread posts (marked yellow) but I could not see any unread posts inside.
Now that I found the "Outdated / Not Implemented" subforum everything is marked "read" again.

Is that only me, or did the structure of the forum change?

I have the same issue regarding the outdated/not implemented subforum.

[Klonan]

No idea why or how it didn't show up,
I hit some resynchronise button in the admin panel, it shows up now to me

[Koub]

There are still issues :
When doing an advenced search, I have this tree :

Notice
- The Factorio Direction seen as a subforum of bug reports, at the same level as Won't fix and Resolved problems and bugs.
- The lack of several subforums under Ideas and Suggestions (Frequently suggested, outdated, ...)

Also still no subforum visible under Ideas and Suggestions :

After I fixed it is broke again, something deeper is corrupt, we are looking into it

I fixed the forums not being visible. The nested set structure governing the forum tree got broken somehow, so I had to learn how it works and recalculate a few rows by hand, you know, just as an exercise. Never a dull moment with phpbb, I swear! :D

[Koub]

In can confirm it's better, but there are still issues with nested set structure.
I cheated a little, here is the way the forum sees its tree. Sorry, I had to zoom out to make it fit into the screen.

As you can see there are several issues (I pointed with arrows where subforums shouldn't be so nested).

[valneq]

Now more stuff is invisible. Hope this is a temporary side effect of people trying to fix the bigger issue.

[Sanqui]

This forum should be stable now except for the jump tree. I'll try to fix that one on a test instance first :)

[valneq]

I can see everythnig again. Thanks for fixing it so quickly!

[Blacky007]

there is obe or more topics in Resolved for the next release
viewforum.php?f=30
but the overview doesn't show this new topic

[valneq]

I can see two topics in "Resolved for next release":
"0.18.31 Mining drill status"
"[0.18.31] FPS/UPS Drop of 18.30 Savegame (wave defense)"

Should there be another one that is not shown?

Have you tried reloading the page while not using the Browser cache?

Earlier today/yesterday something about the forum needed to be fixed. Maybe your Browser's cache is causing this?

[Koub]

[Koub] I think both issues had the same root cause. Merging both topics.
I can confirm that, indeed, the subforums seem browsable again. There are still a few issues with the subforum tree, but it's nowhere as annoying as whole parts of the forum becoming invisible.

[Koub]

Hi, is the forum tree structure still worked on ? It's still a mess right now :
Seen from the advanced search, some nested trees seem out of place :

these should not be there

Also some subforums, when browsed, are shown as not-in the right-place.
Example Outdated/not implemented should be in Factorio Directions > Ideas and suggestions, but it shows :

outdated out of place
