Hi all
the summary function has indeed been disabled as part of a proper look in at the back end of the site.
We have signed up a vbulletin guru - TheFatControlleR - to the forum who helps a lot of IPC (our parent company) brands on their sites.
We probably should have had him on board before the switch but we didnt - hey ho better late than never!
From talking to TFC it transpires from forum was released into the wild ahead of time so the GM community didn't suffer any serious downtime, but as a result it hadn't been prepared as it should have been and now we're catching up. A big part of that is ensuring there's no unnecessary strain placed on the server and/or database by we'll be disabling a couple of the bells & whistles and thread preview is one. We'll also be reintrouducing the preview your post page as standard sometime later this week. As I say the end game is to make things run more smoothly for us all

That's a shame, thread preview was one of the leaps forward I appreciated in the changes.
Saved opening threads that weren't of interest.

The quick reply box seems to have gone as well.

If you click the reply with quote, it will open a window with the quote, I find this is better as you dont need ot start mentioning names to whom you are replying as they are included.
