      Likewise when I do name searches for posts of that era by "Jarvis", "Lisa", "spiffy", "Visionary", "Vizh", "Baron Zemo", "NTU-150" etc. I'm coming up blank. Is the archive not working or is some setting on my browser inhibiting it?

    I'll look at it, but there is a portion of archives missing due to MariaDB being badly behaved a year or three ago maybe? I'll have to check if the search is actually working correctly by seeing if any of those archives actually exists now.


Rhiannon and I probed a bit further with this and found that we could get archive results for the relevant period (July-November 1998) if we entered the search using the Month drop-down selection but not using the "x years ago" drop down selection. So I got what I needed, I think.



With the shift to strike-two.com, the links from older archived pages on the Hooded Hood's Homepage back to the PVB no longer work. So, for example:

http://www.chillwater.org.uk/HH/archive/others/2007/dancer%20-%20kerry%20and%20danny%20-%20dead.htm

is an archived 2007 story tying-in with the arc where Naari is apparently stillborn. The story has some replies under it, but they all have link addresses like this:

http://www.mangacool.com/php/show.php?rpy=parodyverse-20060402035601

How do I need to globally edit those addresses to point to the actual current addresses? I've tried just substituting the new front end for the old but that's not working.

Likewise, some newer links like this one:

https://parodyverse.strike-two.com/app/show.php?rpy=parodyverse-2017011602185689&layout=thread

don't appear to work in browsers with Java disabled (or at least in IE8 with Java and Cookies blocked) but the same pages open just fine at the same settings direct from the PVB before they are archived. Is there a fix?
