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.

    Use firefox and change the google toolbar to search google.ie instead of .com
    Add it here:
    http://mycroft.mozdev.org/google-search-plugins.html

    I was wondering how that works. Does it just return sites for which the domain name is registered in Ireland or something?

    Not necessarily, I think they base it on keywords on the site that relate to Ireland. Not 100% tbh.
