    Ive notice some other people with this issue too, I think ive clicked on at least 5 or 6 different links and they all seem to be broken.

    When someone posts a link to a forum thread in a post, upon clicking all you get is a "We couldn't find the file!" on a blank white page.

    Edit: some of them seem to work, others do not.

    It's because we changed to nginx and it doesn't like the way the old URLs worked, I'll work on getting them working tomorrow.

    I'm not sure if this thing I just noticed will fit in the same category as this, but what the heck.

    Before this updrade when you look into threads that have the "new" icon on them, weither they're newly posted threads or old ones with new replies & say you decided not to reply on it & pressed the "back" button on your browser to return to the page with the list of threads instead, the "new" icon will be removed once the previous page was reloaded. Now when I hit "back", the "new" icon/s remain as they were before I select a thread/s to read.

    if you refresh the page they should disappear.

    This only happened when I wasn't logged in.

    ^This, whenever I clicked on the forum links on the main site it brought me to the "Couldn't find the file" page. It only happens when I'm not logged in though so its not anything too major.

    non-logged in links changed to new style, but the rewrite still is not in place.
