Jeff,

 

When I go to the About Me page in my profile I get this message:

 

 

Error: Could not load template 'tabAboutMe' from group 'profile'

I do not see the emotis on my iPad. Where is the emoti list hiding?

 

above the reply box when you're replying to a post. Where you see the font options and such, I see a smiley face and when I click on it, it gives me the emoties

 

I have no fonts, emoties etc above "this" box. :-(

First you have to click on the box. If you have already done this I apologize. It's just that it took me a moment to figure it out.

I'm also having the weird editing problem.

 

In my already posted reply, I hit the "edit" button and it brings up the editing box just like it used to. I edit the reply, but when I hit "save changes" nothing happens. BUT if I make another reply the normal way (either quick reply or expanded editor) it adds it to my previous post.

 

On the plus side, there are now "tags" showing up as sort of secondary titles.

Like Brindles, I'm no longer seeing the lower side panel that showed if there were new posts in the topics I'm following. The upper side panel with Recent Topics is still there. If this is a setting, anyone know how to turn this back on? I've looked through all the settings and preferences and can't find anything that works. I know you can get to the same info from the View New Content link, but it was easier having it right there on the main forum page. I also miss having the secondary titles.

I'm sure this has been a lot more trying for you, Jeff, than it has been for us, so I'll just thank you for keeping everything on track. :)

 

Just a question (and probably adding to your workload :( ).....when trying to add a link, we used to be able to change the name of the link to whatever we wanted it to say (the standard one that came up said My Link, which could be changed to anything we wanted). Do you know if we'll get that back?

 

I do have to say that if we didn't have this emotie before :bugeye I'm lovin' it! :rofl

 

 

If you want to change the text of the link there are two ways of doing it...

 

1. Type the text you want first, then highlight it with your mouse and then click the link button. Type in the URL and click ok, your custom text is now linked.

 

2. The other way is to turn off the WYSIWYG editor by flipping the "light switch" at the upper left of the editing box. That will show you the raw forum code where you can edit the link text.

Uh, have no idea how the sunglass-smirky dude made it into my post. So confused!

 

He has always done that... in your post, you used the letter b and a parenthesis ) Put those together, and you get sunglass-smirky dude. Doesn't matter if you use upper or lower case, it's what you get. Seems that it converts the lower-case b to an upper-case B no matter what, too.

 

So, anytime someone types


whether upper or lower case, they get

Would it be possible to change the display of thread topics so that the original poster's name is shown as well as the last poster? There are certain people who I immediately want to look at if I know they are the OP. Otherwise I have to open each and every new thread to see if it's by one of the people I love.

I am not seeing that option either

 

So I'm not blind. If you find that option, would you post where it is? Thanx.

 

I was going to ask the same thing -- hope this is still an option :)

I'm not seeing the drop down menu at the bottom right where you could go to change from one topic to another.

Top right, little upside down tear drop thing. It pops up a box that allows you to select a subforum.

 

If you are at the bottom of the page and want to get to the top quick, click the little gray up arrow in a circle in the center of the page.

OK, I don't use an iPad or a smart phone, but on my desktop PC when I'm typing a reply I see everything above the reply box (but not until I begin the reply).

 

I grabbed a screen pic to show you, but can't figure out how to do attachments here. BRB
