CMS Strange Behavior

[Budget101]

When publishing an article in the CMS (v4.1.12) it automatically posts a link in the vBCms Comments forum (like it's supposed to), however, the link & description are suddenly truncated.

They publish like this:

%2$s

Read More: %3$s

This occurs with all Mods disabled & in the default vb Design.

link to site is needed

When did this problem start?

Did you ask your host if they changed anything on the server at that time?

Have you tried with a totally default style?

Are you using a default language pack or have you modified any phrases?

Thank you guys, got it. The customized phrase no longer works in the new update (I'm not sure why it worked for 3 weeks after making the upgrade and then suddenly stopped working).

I was using the following custom phrase to include a description in the vbCMS Comments forum when a new article was published:

$vbphrase[comment_thread_firstpost]

PHP Code:

{2}

Read More: [url={1}]{3}[/url] 


But that particular phrase no longer works in this version of vb. Any ideas on what the correct variable would be?

The phrase comment_thread_firstpost in the current version only has one parameter, which is the url:

You can view the page at [url={1}]{1}[/url]

I'm not sure what you're saying as far as the version you're running now, but 4.1.12 is kind of old and there's probably been template (and phrase) changes since then.
