Forum Software Update

edited July 2015 in Hey Newbie...
Just to let you know we will be updating the forum software shortly.

You may have noticed the formatting has disappeared (the ability to add pics, bold posts etc) - we kept the old software running due to certain members having difficulty when we upgraded last time (so we downgraded), but as the software continues to upgrade without us we are seeing issues with our older version so we have no option but to now upgrade.

We'll add videos asap, however if you get stuck, ask here - Matt our Resident Geek will answer. :P

    We've done the first update, looks like it all works so far.

    Posting images is effectively the same, just click the black icon (looks like this: ) and paste the image url (where it is hosted) as before in the pop-up box.
  • You will also notice that quoting (someone else) is now easier, now rather than merging your text with the 'quoted' text it starts you off in the right place to start your own response.

    Cool! Yes, easy too use & see quote feature on an iPad!
  • I don't seem to be able to post images wherever I like within my post.

    It always seems to put them at the start of the post.

  • Not sure, let me check




  • When you type you are hitting enter to go to a new line before adding the image?
  • Hmm, yes pretty sure.
  • Testing 123


    Yep, just tried it here.

  • @theartofmovieposters

    What Browser are you using?
  • IE11...I know I know, I really need to start using chrome...but old habits die hard.
  • Testing testing 123


    Yup, works fine in Chrome
  • I'll test in IE, I am sure you are right - but as you know IE is not always the most forgiving when it comes to design.
  • I am assuming this is a setting but I can't find it.
    Pre upgrade, discussions which have new comments would appear at the top of the recent discussions tab.
    Now this is not the case.
    I've noticed a couple of posts made to the third man thread, but the thread itself doesn't move up to show me there are new posts to look at.
    Where do I go to change this?

    Ves

    I am checking on the IE issue.

    I really don't remember if that was the case (re discussions at the top), I pretty sure they would just be ordered by date/time
  • No they definately got moved to the top for me...no biggy, will just need to be more observant
  • Can I just say this since I am drunk on some nice Argentinian wine...  You're awesome Ves...  Wish I was down under so I could give you a big hug in a platonic poster collector brotherhood type of way...    
  • I say that because hugging Matt and David would just be plain weird... I need an outlet!
  • Um ok...:s You're awesome too...big platonic poster collector hug right back at ya
  • edited July 2015
    Really... All I get is a -  :s

    You must have never gotten a hug from a Texan before...   They are warm and unforgettable... 

     =) 

    Whatever...  I'll hug Matt instead.

    Bring a lint roller
  • Forgot he was an old cat lady-boy... 

    Ok, I'll give David's brunet goddess of a wife a hug then...  ;) (she likes Cleo; that's hug worthy...)

    Just find me a poster loving lady down-under to give a hug... Dammit!  


  • What a lovely thing to say Charlie, comments like that would get you a hug back from my wife...


  • lol...

    They are all goddesses to put up with us...

    I'll expect tea and Vegemite when I visit (The new place).  Although fresh pineapple will be an acceptable substitute for shit, I mean Vegemite...   

    Did I ever tell you about the time I got a migraine on the  "Big Pineapple" ride in Queensland...   Ice cream in the diner is not that great if you can't see it...
