This has been fixed sometime in the last 24 hours by our tech support.
Ongoing issue over the last month: It seems that you cannot attach attachments largerthan 2 MB right now, it'll fail in various ways. We've sent a support request in to try to fix this.
Forum members who are still having issues uploading file attachments to MAMEWorld Forums, this seems to be the remaining issue, based on my diagnostics this morning. It appears that file attachment sizes larger than 2048 KB (2 MB) will fail to upload, in multiple ways, following the server move. I haven't tried every supported filetype, but it definitely fails over on zips. (This took me a while to diagnose.)
I suspect it's not due to UBB.Threads but instead more server side.
Note that this only affects UBB.Threads forum attachments at mameworld.info/ubbthreads/ through the browser - NOT people uploading things to their hosted sites and subdomains on the MAMEWorld server via FTP.
What happens:
If the attempted UBB.Threads post attachment's filesize is between 2048 KB and some other number (let's say 7 MB or so) then UBB.Threads will update the post (and its database), saying that the attachment has been added. When viewing the forum post, you will see what appears to be a downloadable attachment, but the estimated filesize of that attachment will be 0 KB. When you attempt to download the attachment, you will receive a 404 error. This is because it was never saved.
If the attempted attachment's filesize exceeds 7 or 8 MB, then you'll receive an error message upon uploading: "We cannot proceed. All of the required fields are not filled in. Please use your back button to return to the previous page."
All this despite our maximum filesize for attachments of 50 MB.
We'll let you all know once this is resolved.
