John Eucist Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 This new version includes a lot of improvements and also the ability to tag people (like in Facebook). To tag people type @whoever then WAIT until a popup list comes up.After it was upgraded a lot of settings has been "reset". For example, the signatures was turned off until @esaj told me about it. It is now turned back on. Please let me know if anything else is broken, buggy, or no longer works and I'll try to see if it can be fixed in settings. If not, I will pass the bug or problem to the developers of this forum software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Eucist Posted May 19, 2015 Author Share Posted May 19, 2015 There is an issue with missing photos from previous threads. I think it's only affecting photos that are NOT embedding from external servers (i.e. locally uploaded photos). I have notified tech support and hopefully they will restore them asap.

Planetpapi Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I liked the fresh look! Some signatures are taking up a lot of space vertically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
^tom^ Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I am not a fan of updates and so here too.Maybe technical it is better but from the point of view I did prefer the old version.I am also not sure is the thread text by self now so small and the member frame on the left so big.

SerpentineGX Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Nice update. There's one thing I noticed. It isn't a problem just aesthetics. The "Location" under our names has no spacing between words.Example: LocationSoCal, USAShould be: Location: SoCal, USAJust something I noticed, no biggie. The site looks great!

John Eucist Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 Is this forum crazy slow (network connection) right now or is it just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimlet Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I find it takes longer to load but I have a very slow connection anyway. I just thought the new version used more complex scripting.I did prefer the old version but then I'm just a Luddite at heart.Have we lost all our old pm messages during the upgrade?

esaj Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Haven't noticed it being any slower than usual. I've got a 100/5Mbit connection though, traceroute shows 14 hops to server (Finland -> US), 160ms latency on average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimlet Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 OK. Just found them. I was having a senior moment. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Eucist Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 @Gimlet did your signature used to have a double space between every entry too or did it transform after the upgrade? Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimlet Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 As far as I remember it was just a simple single return for each entry.But you will notice that on this version a single press of the return key gives you a new paragraph space.I can't see any signatures on my phone. Do I need to enable them or do they only show on desktop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Eucist Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 The missing/broken local photos issue as well as the missing/broken emoticons issue is supposedly resolved. Can you guys verify this is true? The "Location without a space" issue is still there but it is minor and I will get them to fix that up eventually.Please also let me know if you find any other bugs or if the site is extremely slow.

Jason McNeil Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Can you allow authors permission to delete their entries. There's been a couple times when hitting 'submit reply' fails to force a page refresh, so you hit the button again, only to find that the post had been made in duplicate/triplicate.
