Please note we (Admins) are learning these things with you...all while trying to recover past functionality, look and feel, etc.

I use the search in google. For instance, in the search bar type in springfield 1911 site: texasbowhunter.com and you'll get many results.

Not a big issue, but I think the TBH system needs a "daylight savings" update.
I am noticing that posts are showing a time stamp an hour off. Times showing an hour into the future when posting.

In your User Control Panel you control some of this. I changed mine to DST always off and the times are now correct for me. I'll continue to investigate. Let me know what you find.

It automatically populates your screen name into the first email address box. Just have to delete what is in there and save changes.

Being that the option for "Automatically detect DST settings" would be something that is server/system dependent to apply, it seems this is an issue with vBulletin. But could be the server it is on. If it is hosted in a time zone that does not change, it might not adjust the server time and vBulletin might be dependent on the server time.
Incidentally, I logged out of TBH on my phone with it set to Automatically detect and the times showed correctly. So that option in the "User Settings" has a major effect on this for users logged in. I imagine before the time change it would have showed correctly when not logged in also. Just odd how it effects those who are logged in.
Making this change now in User Settings, the next time change would probably bring this issue up again.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, it does this to me also.

I experienced the exact same thing. It's as simple as wiping out your name that it auto-inserts when you open that form.
