I know Matt is busy right now and don't expect a quick fix buuuuuuuuuuuut I clicked my profile today and found this.
To which I respond.
As I am both proud and confused to be the only person with the 100 LOLs badge at the moment. Especially since like half of those come from just posting dog in new and creative ways. Hell, I probably got half the people reading this in the previous sentence. Anyway, I then clicked on promote, awesome, and lol and come to this.
Also I can no longer see the discussion going on in my most recent PM which was viewable as of Wednesday morning.
I know it's nothing personal, just wanted to let you know something messed up recently and
WHY DO YOU HATE ME MATT!? WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO MUCH WHEN ALL I DO IS CARE!?
I think that's a WP/Vanilla bridge issue - posts created from WP have a timestamp in the future, when you couldn't have seen it. A certain number of minutes or hours later, it falls down/can be marked read, etc.
@Lincoln: It looks like the DateUpdated and DateLastComment values are the ones causing the timestamp issue after discussions are created on Vanilla. The following workaround should fix this problem, as it seemed to do the trick when I tested it several minutes ago on my website.
At the end of function glue_add_discussion($postid) in glue.php:
// Workaround for incorrect DateUpdated and DateLastComment timestamps after the discussion is created on Vanilla. // Reinserts DateUpdated and DateLastComment to the newly created discussion on Vanilla. global $wpdb; $wpdb->update(VANILLA_PREFIX.'Discussion', array('DateUpdated' => $the_post->post_date, 'DateLastComment' => $the_post->post_date), array('DiscussionID' => $DiscussionID));
I just noticed that ads seem to be offline - the page-top ad just gives a link to http://icrontic.com/ads/728x90.php Which is empty for me at the moment.
Using "Mark All Viewed" from the All Discussions page sets previously viewed discussions in the "Gaming Feature Articles" category as New. This only happens when no one has replied to the discussion.

Um, whether bug or not, it seems to be for about 24 hours and then the articles drop down in sort order. I know Vanilla supports admins and possibly moderators promoting and sinking threads-- there might be a time limit on that.
I unfortunately don't have to many details on this but it is report worthy.
In PMs (at least, not tested on forum posts) if you use a Windows 8 smiley in a PM, the PM when sent will stop at the smiley (and also not include the smiley). For example:
Message1 (smiley) Message2
would only send Message1 through to the recipient.
If the powers that be need more info or testing on that, hit me up and we'll make it happen.
Vanilla has been compromised by that Norwegian virus that seems to be spreading like wildfire today.

I also noticed that a PM went "invisible", but if I switched pages on it (edit: hit "older messages"), everything came back. Somethin' be quirky, yo.
//EDIT: And the fact that attached images always appear broken seems to be another error.
Working for me. Lincoln is workin on stuff this morning so whatever you ran into may have been temporary or a cache issue.
Edit: That said Who's Online is showing twice currently.

ie. CB's "New Releases for The Week of Snipers and Eared Hoodies" was doing this until I replied to the discussion. Now it stays viewed even if I click the "Mark All Viewed".
On the All Discussions page "Tech Feature Articles" seem to be defying sorting. Example attached.
Theory tested. Pics that are attached cannot be deleted. Perhaps due to relative storage?

I can understand if they just won't display, but as an end user experience it was quite jarring to see half my message not send.
