Is there a problem with this forum?

[hyssop]

Hi,

On 3/1 I started a thread, got one response and then nothing more, though I see a lot of responses for many other threads. I supplied a response and suggested a possible course of action and still didn’t receive any more replies. (I saw another poster asking a similar question a couple days ago,I think.) My tagging @wfdave wasn’t responded too either. Am I somehow blacklisted?

I did notice that all the other email notifications I receive for this forum have a subject of “[www.ads-software.com Forums] [Wordfence Security – Firewall & Malware Scan] …post title…” whereas the notify for mine was “[www.ads-software.com Forums] …post title…” making it look like it wasn’t in this forum, but I clearly see it here.

The thread is here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/table-crashes-after-mysql-5-6-to-mariadb-10-3-upgrade/

Well, yes, I’ve noticed over the years that answers here can be inconsistent. That’s never bothered me, as I use the free version of WF and the folks from that company are probably being paid to answer questions. I used to pay, and the help system was more consistent, though it was sometimes slow. MTN

Thanks @mountainguy2 At least I know my posts aren’t invisible. It’s true that free version users need to be patient. (“What do want for nothing, your money back?!” ?? )

The subject line is what got me worried, but maybe it’s only that way for threads I initiate. Can you tell be what your email notification subject is for this post (if you email notifications)?

Also, would you be willing to check for the performance_schema errors/warnings on your installation? See my other post for details. (If that db is empty it needs to be turned on; I think it’s off by default.) In addition I’d like to know your WordPress, WordFence, and DB versions.

Hi, the email forum alert I get is titled “[www.ads-software.com Forums] Is there a problem with this forum?”

I use totally updated everything.

No time to look at my error logs right now, but they’re always showing something, usually not worth the time fixing.

I concentrate on how fast the site is. If it’s ok, I don’t worry about it.

Strange about the email subject, but I won’t worry about it.

The warnings/errors I reference are SQL related in the db, and I’m thinking it’s related to strict mode being enforced beginning with MySQL 5.7 (and the MariaDB counterpart). The warnings are in the thousands, but what concerns me most are the table insert errors. (There were also db table crashes initially after the upgrade, but they cleared up upon table repair, and have not reappeared.)

I’m hoping WF will help me find the proper place in their code to modify for testing – it’s simple to do, but not easy to find based off of the error message itself. I’ll wait for someone to respond, if ever…

I understand you not wanting to take the time to check. Thanks anyway.
