Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    for i in *.tar.gz; do tar -xvzf $i; done

    from the top of my head this should work, i'm not near a *nix machine so i can't try to make sure
