  • Hey everyone,
  • We finally rolled out Abilities! 🥳 However, because it took much longer than expected (due to some technical difficulties), we ran into some unexpected problems.
  • What this means is that some activity was left out of the updated database. Certain posts, comments, edits or other changes (for example to user profiles) may be temporarily missing. We tried to port all the new and changed content into the updated database, but it looks like we missed a few things.
  • Don't worry, though! These changes aren't gone forever, of course; we did a backup when we took the sites offline today to finish rolling out the changes. We can use that to recover any missing data.
  • In the meantime, we're trying to track down where the issue was that caused some posts to not be copied over.
  • Sorry; this was our first major database update and a lot of things that work fine normally apparently don't work quite as well when doing a lot of stuff at once.
  • While that's going on, please continue reporting missing content, ideally by adding a comment here. We're going to investigate what's wrong and will either copy over the changes manually or all at once, once we finish fixing the issues.
  • **Update:** It looks like we brought all changes back. Unfortunately, they will be under a different ID/URL now. If there's still something missing, please comment below.
