Moving older threads to Sims 3
Edit: Now that we have a Creative Corner subforum, please feel free to link posts currently in General Discussion that should be moved to CC, or Tech for that matter. Moving long threads also works...

Sandraelle Your thread has been moved by... someone, no idea whether it was me or not. It just showed up under Sims 3 when I went to check tonight.
The same is true for the "I still love scenery" thread. So I guess the site is willing to cooperate sometimes.
puzzlezaddictThank you so much for getting my thread moved (or whoever did it, lol), yay!!!
However, I'm still not able to publish any edits in my showcase thread. I just delete a few words and replace it with different words before publishing and it won't publish the edit. This has been going on since day 1.
On another thread, I've been able to successfully post a few words in a reply post, but then whenever I go to edit that post to add more information, it won't publish any of my edits. I've tried hitting cancel to discard changes, then I've deleted the post altogether and started over, and no luck. Am I blocked or something from publishing?
EDIT: Well I was finally able to get the reply post I mentioned above to publish, so disregard the above paragraph. It seems like it's hit and miss? Still not working on my showcase thread though.
Thanks for any help in this situation. 😄
Sandraelle Try again now. I've helped a couple other users unstick their threads by "editing" them, e.g. creating and deleting a couple new lines. Try one edit at a time as well—sometimes the problem is not editing itself but too many changes, or new or edited links, at once.
EA people are looking into the issue in general, so you can flag your thread to them in the Feedback forum, or I'll pass along any relevant info if you prefer.
SolitaryBeing Your thread has now been moved over, finally. Again, no idea whether that was me or someone else, but at least it's done.
Thank you very much puzzlezaddict! :)
puzzlezaddict, Sorry, I didn't have any luck. I've tried doing the one edit at a time many times before, but it doesn't make a difference.
I did notice in my thread that I had a whole bunch of dates listed in the OP that converted weirdly, e.g., inserting a fraction in place of a number, so was wondering if that was making it stuck. So I went in and edited all of them, but no luck.
I would appreciate it if you could pass along the info for me and have my thread flagged as well. Thank you so much! 😀
Sandraelle I've flagged your thread and mentioned that my fake edits didn't make a difference. At this point, this is more about gathering data than a targeted fix, but hopefully it helps overall.
The dates showing as fractions are just a reflection of how the site shows some numbers. I noticed a couple weeks ago and got confirmation that nothing was broken. It even changes in real time if you write it out. It apparently only applies to halves and quarters though.
