When upgrading the CR software several months ago, a large percentage of the old threads became dismembered with a) one thread being cut up into six or more threads and b) individual posts having multiple paragraphs truncated and cut off at either the beginning or end of the post and c) Hebrew quotes from Seforim being turned into question marks.

Truncated posts:
(You need to compare it to how the thread looked before the upgrade to really see the difference to notice what’s missing. This can be done by using the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.)Missing some beginning paragraphs:
Missing some beginning paragraphs in the OP:
I’ve also seen posts with ending paragraphs missing.
Single thread split into multiple threads:
And many, many more.

August 14, 2017 10:23 pm at 10:23 pm #1339153JosephParticipantBesides the links bring broken (messing up pages), as seen above, the page count, page numbers, link to last post and last poster are all messed up with them being inaccurate with the number count and not always properly linking to the last page when clicking the last comment link.
