Hello.

Having ffixed our clock, people can now not post due to the flood control settin in Master Settings > Feature Settings. This is set to 10. I have tried leaving it blank and as -1 to see if this helped.

Some people can post but those who posted when the time was wrong now cannot.

Any ideas please?

Sounds like the clock was ahead of itself? So what happened is their USER_LAST_POST field is set to the future so the floodcheck is failing.

I'd just reset everyone's USER_LAST_POST to 0. It will update properly the next time they make a post. You can run the following SQL command:

update ubbt_USER_DATA set USER_LAST_POST='0'

Hi Rick

Thanks for responding. I ran this command but it's still saying you can only make a new post every 10 seconds.

Ah, there is also a cookie that stores some of that info as well. Basically, anyone that is currently logged in and getting that error, should just close their browser completely and then come back. They should be able to post then.
