Default Community changed from C7 to C6?

How come my "community" on the side changed from C7 to C6? And how do I switch it back to the way it was? I've looked everywhere in my user CP and can't find it.

So you click on the C7 under the sign in username and the community shows C6 stuff and if you click on the C6 it shows C5 stuff. This all happened in the last 24 hours.

There's a sticky that covers this:
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...style-faq.html

We suggest all members read the Stickies as they contain important and frequently asked information.

No, it's broken. "Default 2014" is selected, yet the generation links remain messed up. Doesn't matter if I log in with a different browser, clear cookies, etc.

C1 through C5 work properly, but C6 and C7 are off by one.

So C6 = C5 and C7 = C6.

Ok, great link.


I click on the top right C7 and I get C6. I haven't touched my 2014 default since I've been on the forum. If I click on C6, I get C5. It's broke!

The sticky tells us how to select our community but the community buttons don't WORK.

Well, to be fair, the links work except for C6 and C7. I know it's a matter to get angry about, but it's obviously an error someone recently made and I'm looking into it.

Thanks.

The "how" to pick a community is not the issue. When you click on "C7" it gives you the C6 Community. When you click on "C6" it gives you the C5 Community. The rest work fine.

Someone dorked up the programming last night since all of us in C6 and C7 woke up to find our communities had been changed without our doing so.

Not angry. Just posting in the help forum to get help. I'm too old to get angry over a couple of broken links.

We understand that. As previously mentioned, I'm looking into it.

The original poster of this thread asked how to change the community links. At the time, the question appeared to be a usability topic and not a bug because the question was how to change the links and that they couldn't find it in the UserCP. There was not information, and no known issue, with the link itself not working correctly.

Not that it's a big deal, but the issue was reported 45 minutes later, in the second post in this thread.
