Here is one for yeh Theo

When I change my sig it does not appear in all my past posts, just my new ones.

Yeah, that happens to me.

I'm not the expert on PHPBB but I will take a shot at this one. You sig, unlike your user name, is inserted into the message when it is created. Your username is linked by a unique id (just using that as an example).

So when you create a message your current and active SIG is inserted into the message as part of the message. There is no way to change this (from my limited understanding of the forum software). So when you change your SIG it's only changed for new messages.

Well, check this out.

My signature from a long time ago doesn't have anything.

Dretlin, it seems that your signature is fine from a long time ago.

You've got me stumped. Looking into the database it appears that the SIG is part of the final saved message. Is it possible that you didn't have a SIG when those messages were created?

I didnt have a sig for awhile. But when I started to mess around with it...that happened...but for some reason it seems fixed now...
