Suggestions, Tips and Help

[madamimadam]

Yesterday, I fixed up all of the Treasure Chest of Links because of some formatting issue with the upgrade.

Today, I spent 15 hours fixing up all of the embedded youtubes and pics for the Let's Talk forum....

OOOOOF!!!!

I have no clue what's going on in Adam's land... I figured if anything 'BIG' happened, I would see you guys posting about it!

Now, I am off to eat dinner and will try to finish the 2014 Archives tonight...

Then, we're good except for the QAL Tour threads that have to be revisited because of the embedding/pictures issue.

I AM STARVING!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love the new site! [smile.gif]
The only issues I am noticing are the warnings at top of page...but I'm on Firefox and clearing the cache doesn't make it go away. However, that doesn't bother me at all.
The main thing is that the reply button is really hard to find. I couldn't find it when I first signed up here and could only see the "quick reply" box until it was pointed out where the actual "reply" button was. I'll have to open in another browser and see if it appears that small there. Just seems a bit obscure.

Great job Marie...loving our "permanent" home!! [notworthy.gif] [0146.gif] [0010.gif]
Just did try Internet Explorer and no warnings tnere...here's the Firefox sceenpic--strange! [wtf.gif] but no real concern.

Oh and almost forgot...any chance of getting the tumbleweed desert smiley emoji back. [0062.gif] My favorite for "Ghost Town" posts you might have noticed!! [happy.gif]

Barb: I've checked for the tumbleweed emoticon through the available database and can't find it. I can upload new packs but cannot see them before I do. Too much happening right now as it is very time consuming.

Remind me when things calm down a bit, i.e. after The Ellen Show...

No they are not.

They opened in new tabs on the first day when she adjusted the board but then the next day they were back to opening in the same tab as the forum and this is still the case. [sad.gif]

Guys, we are trying something new. Can you make sure that you clear your cookies/cache and see if those code lines disappear for good?

Keep me posted!

Is there anyway to space between the header in a post and the actual post? It's often difficult to read..or to know where to start.

Example: this is the way it is now....

Post Re: First single "Ghost Town" Discussion
Gorgeous, gorgeous vine vid...

Could it be defaulted this way:

Post Re: First single "Ghost Town" Discussion
(insert space here)

Barb: Can you tell me again how you grab those twitter video links so they can be viewed?

1) still getting the messages, I am on Mac/Chrome..

2) but as I mentioned before, the worst for me is the impossibly tiny font in REPLY/QUOTE box.

3) links DO NOT default to a new tab, they open "in place"

1) And you DID clear your COOKIES and HISTORY, right?

2) I'm not sure why that is happening to you, because the font size in replies is HUGE!

3) Most links DO default to a new tab, except for 7 specific sites - we're trying to find a solution to that. The 7 sites are: Facebook, Google+, Instagram, iTunes, Soundcloud, Twitter, Youtube

I like the header and over all look. But is it possible to change background colours? With bad /blurred sight is it kinda difficut to use this board because of bue colour. I mean blue background and blue lines -> black lines between posts and forum section

Love this forum :)

[vistadiva]

The overall look is great...but I'm gonna agree with Nica. The font is too small in the posts. I think we had that issue with the original board and Marie increased the font size default. Can that be done again??

I find I have to CTR ++ to make the pages readable, but that enlarges the screen and spreads out the page so I can't see the quote/edit buttons without having to scroll over.

The fear and flat face smilies are still missing.

This is weird, I keep reading that the font is too small when posting. When I go to post, my font is HUGE....and then looks fine when I submit my post.

Strange.

Question for those of you who say the post reply font is too small... Is the banner on top fully visible, including Adam's picture on the right? Or does your 'board' get resized to be small to fit it all in?

We're trying to pinpoint why a few of you seem to be having this problem.

[madamimadam]

Also for those of you still having issues with the code lines on top, go the Forum Index, scroll to the bottom and "Clear board cookies".

Vampfever has received an answer from a mod at the software site forum saying that the coding at the top was a server issue and it should be fixed.

Yes, the banner's fully visible and there's even an empty space next to Adam's head on my right. But the font size in the Reply box is teeny.
