    Doesn't appear to be a common problem. I'm sure mine still works OK.

    Have not been in my User CP to change anything either.

    Have to tried different sig sizes and background graphic options? Maybe just one of them is borked.

    I altered mine just an hour ago to change the "Merry Christmas" link I had on there. Didn't touch anything else, but lost my picture and the FAH stats link. I tried re-doing it with one of the stock backgrounds, but that didn't work either. :scratch:

    If it wasn't such a big job to go through it all, i could post a copy of my data for the sig. Then it could be compared to ones that don't work.:scratch:

    Then again, it would be BIG for me, knowing nothing about programming.:banghead:

    I had the same exact one that dragon has. so i dont think that it is a certain sig.

    Looks to me like the sig works fine UNLESS you try to change something!:rarr: I want to add
    "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia."

    But if I try to change to that the stats vanish....and I'm only in this for the stats so somethig has to be done. SHORTY - does this call for a little code re-write??:hair: Jack

    The sigs were conflicting with the AJAX javascript being used by the vBulletin software. Shorty disabled the AJAX for now, so the sigs should be in working order again (unless there is a secondary problem I'm not picking up on in this thread).

    Revamping the whole damn sig system just got a little more important, I guess. :-/

    I've tried re-doing mine in both Firefox and IE, but no luck. :(

    I'm just about to pass six million points and I'd really like to see my Folding sig again... :bawling:

    bikerboy, your sig code is full of errors. Try starting one from scratch. The sig generator is working fine for me, although it could be the way the forum is storing new sig code.

    prof, try inserting a new sig. Even if it doesn't work, just leave it there for me to have a look.

    Nope, still not working Matt. Even with Ajax disabled. Well that's a real pain :(

    I did check that sigs worked as part of my post forum upgrade testing plan. They appeared to work just fine, so of course I ticked that box as ok. It now appears that I was possibly hasty as once you try to change it... it's dying a death :(

    Any thoughts..? :)

    Old sigs work, but changing your sig causes it to stop functioning. My first guess is that they're not getting stored in the database correctly, which would logically be the result of some new parser on new sig inputs. I'll have a closer look shortly.

    I found it. There's a set of vb url tags getting inserted into the code.

    prof and bikerboy, I fixed your sigs. bikerboy, I'm not sure what happened, but replacing the code cleaned it up significantly so I could find the mistake (there were several different ones previously... who knows what happened).

    If anyone else is having a similar problem, please let me know and I'll correct it for you. Please don't ever edit sig code on your own. :)

    Is this a new VB parser problem..? I can take a look at the sig parser and possibly block URL tags..:)

    I'm glad I saw this before I mucked it up again. I was in the middle of adding something and was able to close the tab and get out of it. :o

    Thanks, Keebster! :thumbsup:

    It's not a big deal. Just let me know if you need it fixed again in the future. It's like a 2-second fix now that I see it.

    I can't change the quotation once and awhile anymore? That seems to be at the end of the code. I don't want to be bugging you in the middle of the night or really ever Mr. General! Does EVER mean - like - forEVER? Jack
