Lots of forum type issues. Please bear with us as we try to upgrade our very old software.

Non forum issue - Tried to "Recommend" a cache today. It comes up on my list but doesn't turn gold or have "recommended by Zalgariath" on the cache page.

Thanks. Another PHP7 challenge. This is now fixed, so please try and add your recommendation again.

Forum Stars failure.
Clicked the button to update stars and was rewarded with
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function ereg() in /var/www/site/gca/docroot/my/stars/index.php:57 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in /var/www/site/gca/docroot/my/stars/index.php on line 57

Another of the known forum issues?

I think this issue is general as I got a similar message on quite a few different ? icons from various pages.
The default wiki which we have at the moment is using long URLs. In the past we used short urls and that's what our help links point to. We'll try and get back to short URLs shortly

That worked, but you have to remove it from your list first, and then re-add. Cheers!

Congrats to all concerned for getting new server up and running. Wowee is it fast
or what....absolutely flies on mobile now....an absolute joy to use.
Haven't found any issues to date..other than blistering speed..lol.
Fantastic effort guys....a brilliant job all round.

The support system has been updated and is back online.

Any login or other support type issues can be logged at http://geocaching.com.au/support

The GPX Feed email thing is back up for those faeries who stoke the boiler that way.

You shouldn't get the 255 errors you were getting the past few weeks.

THAT was a bugger to fix.

Now to have my xmas lunch (yes it's 10pm, but there was stuff to fix)

That's a nice addition, thanks for implementing it.

Enjoy your xmas lunch/supper.

Peking duck. Magnificent.

As part of following a link from a locationless listing I got the following error

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 8192 bytes) in /var/www/site/gca/docroot/cacher/statistics/xml.php on line 400

Listing GA3275 & constructed link from the listing was http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/statist ... wr/general

Not sure if this is a problem with the new setup or not as I didn't try this before the change, but I can't print out a cache page using Firefox or Chrome. IE lets me print but page one with the map on it is all squished up. Is this a thing?
