    Software upgrade 28th Nov

    Hi all. I'm upgrading from vb4 to vb5 this afternoon. I've practiced it once already in staging and it was OK, so I don't see any issues, but I have a couple of different backups (my own manual copy and the host's backup). It will take a few hours. The site will be unavailable during that time.

    Most stuff seems to be working OK.
    Pressing return is giving some crazy character set stuff. I'll have to fix that tomorrow

      Please report bugs as you spot them. Several features, like "new posts" button aren't done yet, but I'll add them. So I'm looking for things that are actually broken, not missing.

        Thought this was related to the copy / paste thing I was talking about in the bug thread before, but yeah, it's definitely after return that I'm getting these weird strings

          Tried three different browsers, admittedly all but one old versions, could sign in fine on all of them but in posts the 'Likes' option does not work but Quote and Flag do.

              Please can you try logging in to an incognito window, so we can eliminate weird cookie stuff?

                Don't worry about the weird extra character for the moment. Once I know why it's happening, I'll do a search and delete in the database

                  Just logged in using an almost up to date portable version of Firefox (v114 something) and 'Likes' is still not functioning for me.

                    Ok, thanks. I think I've fixed it for your usergroup and a few other groups?

                      I think I've fixed the weird character issue. Anyone else still seeing it?

                        Any thoughts on the base font sizes? On mobile and on PC.
