Thanks, I’ll still be moving through issues, so please let me know what you notice.
Seems the "Who is online" thing doesn't respect user settings anymore. Small thing, but since you asked.
Embedding videos

Embedding videos from YouTube isn't working anymore. Tried with this one, in another thread, and found no joy.

If you Quote this message, I imagine you'll see the markup used. Ought to have worked, right?

From what I can tell User Control Panel -> Board Preferences, Hide my online status does work. It's possible you are seeing yourself online though (but others wouldn't).

I changed the generic "Video" bbcode to "Youtube" and it will work, for Youtube videos at least.

Site does not remember me - daily. Seems to be related to when I click "Unread Posts"

At least once a day, not every time.

Are other people still getting emails when threads they've participated in get new replies?

These have stopped, entirely, for me since the forum "upgrade." :(

Hey- thanks for putting upgrade in scare quotes, your sarcasm is highly appreciated. A good way to close off a request for someone to look into an issue for you.

I'll take a look. It's probably more of a server issue.

Edit: I see multiple deliveries in the logs to your email address over the last couple days. Maybe check your spam folder. You may want to double check your notification settings:
