in thread Make posts in Newest Nodes show longer?

From my experience, you can configure many things, but nodes older than certain threshold aren't shown in either Newest Nodes nor RAT (happened to me several times when I was offline for a week). Probably protecting the database from too resource intensive queries.

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]

    FWIW: my workaround works up to 14 days in both NN and RAT.

    RAT has also a kind of "time machine" to move to an older date with

    Viewing Nodes As of: <<<< <<< << < Now

      I remember trying the time machine, but it worked differently to what I'd expect. Next time I'm offline for an extended period of time I'll experiment with the settings more.

      map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
        yes, I somehow remember we had this discussion before! :-)

        (PS: It's kind of weird that the site works again ... ;-)
