This is going to be an adventure just writing the posting…
Since almost a day the forum was offline or not reachable and this are the first life sings of it. I looked on twitter and facebook but no word about the troubles I expierened with this forum.
Also I noticed that for more than a day the direct search on active topics is not allowed anymore if I was not logged in.
I hope that this post is showing up after posting this. Wish me good luck.
ditto
I changed my forum theme to a forum theme that doesn’t allow changing the forum theme, but as soon as I login to reply to this post, theme has gone back to the old default!
I’m also having trouble accessing the forum.
The local witch doctor performed necessary rituals and hopefully all troubles are over.
They have written in other post here that there are problems with the Board Style
http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/forum-style-for-mikrotik-phpbb-forum-problem/114392/1
And there are stil problem us UCP with modules missing giving message like this:
General Error
Cannot find module ./includes/ucp/ucp_karma.php
Please notify the board administrator or webmaster: no-reply@mikrotik.com
Board style works fine, and there are no errors in UCP. Make sure you clear your cache and try another browser.
Forum does have problems. Tested on two different computers, on both IE and Chrome.
Click on your icon, select User Control Panel
Then Board Preferences.
Here you will see the following option.
Edit global settings
Edit posting defaults
Edit display options
UCP_KARMA
BOARDWATCH_EDIT_OPTIONS
Edit notification options
Notices two of them i capital lettes. (They are capital due to missing module)
Try select UCP_KARMA or BOARDWATCH_EDIT_OPTIONS, it will fail with the message in my last post.
I did also post a screen shot in my other thread, showing the problem.
It may be that different user rights shows different options. If so, try to create a normal user and test your self.
and why are you clicking on those links 
? please don’t
.
I just point out that there are errors, and you say not.
When I was looking fot the board style, I did see the option in capital lettes.
Since I also have worked phpBB forum, I did now that these are errors.
So just trying to help out, 
Can you confirm that you also see this?
The patient much better but the doctor forgot to remove some pins out of the bones that are healed now.
When I am not logged in I still can’t select the active topics page. I don’t see any secret stuff that in that page that should be behind a login.
A pitty that was not communicated in any way that there was an disturbance in the workings of the forum while Mikrotik has Twitter and Facebook. This to rest assure us that it is know and worked on in restoring the formum.
Why don’t you want to log in?
We had a security breach by “Anonymous” (not logged in) user before the upgrade. So anonymous user got less permissions now. Maybe we will turn on Active Topics, but this is not a good way to read forum anyway.
Because I am using plenty of devices to look into the forums. But I get logged off when using too much simultenous logins. Thus I almost ever hit the forum as anonymous.
“Active Topics” is my preferred way to look into forums.
Thus you completely broke my way looking into mikrotik forums since the last few days.
Either: Enable “Active Topics” for anonymous
Or: Enable much more active sessions for logged in users.
504 Gateway Time-out…
Very slow!!!
Error DB
Very slow!!!
The wiki and forum where gone the last hours and are back now as I can see. 
ps. I did see a “sign of life” on twitter this time not about the this breakage but about the previous ones.
When I answer or write posting it is obvious that I have log in otherwise my username would not be present.
I have to login manually each time. It would be nice to have active topics back like it was before the mentioned security breach.
I find it good way, to use the forum and I visit many times each day the forum and to go along each section to check if there is something new would spoil my pleasure using the forum.
Why?
If I do not close the browser, I am logged inn all time. I only reboot PC when some goes wrong.
@normis
I do see that the karma is gone so you can not rate post anymore. Will it be back? If not I need to change my footer
THANK YOU MIKROTIK that active topics is available again for everyone.
Keeping your browser open all the time even when you are doing something else on your PC or device is now that wise because you can’t what is happening there. I shut down my computer every time I leave. This erases my tmp/temp dir so on restart I have a clean start in that dir.
