1EvilC5 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 The forum will be upgrade to the newest version today. We already experienced a technical issue during the first install but have restored from back up. We will attempt again and hopefully it will be successful. Keep your fingers crossed. Phil...

Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Looks like all you need to do is click in the box to quick reply. I'm still exploring the new features, and will be updating the skin as I can get to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie44 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I see you can add other languages. I think we ought to have the option of Spanish..... okay, I'll leave it alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Shut up Eddie.. BTW, the new PM system now threads your PM's when you reply several times to each other, but it only counts as 1 PM as long as the title stays the same.

Big Poppa Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 We trashed the forum so now no one knows how to use it... And we couldn't get rid of 2thoth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Well we didn't know the big move up to the 3.0 series would be so drastic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 There is that "Back-to-the-Top" link. But I'm torn if I like this or not. Everything looks out of order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1EvilC5 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 It is alot easier to get around and more features then the old one. I do not like the colors, I think that it is harder to read some things on here. We will continue to discover what this new software can do. Keep the input coming everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I'm adding the ACE logo as the "Read and Unread icons What color do you guys want. RED = Unread threads Blue = read Or red and light read (faded) The original was a dark blue folder for unread, Grey folder for read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chameleon Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 You asked for "input" so here goes (this is intended to be constructive, so please view from that perspective. . .) There used to be a button for "back to the top" on every single post, now there is only one link at the bottom. This is less convenient. In my profile there is a section called "previous fields" and the content of those fields is out of alignment with the labels of the fields. I have several PMs that are fairly new to which I have not yet replied, but they have a red X in front of them and I can't reply. It says those conversations have been "deleted" even though the messages are there and I can read them. My gender has been changed to not saying, and I can't find where to fix it. Did I have a sex change and no one told me? Michael will not be happy. . . The previous version allowed tracking of a message to see if it had been read. This feature apparently no longer exists? So far, I am not liking this upgrade. I guess I'll adjust, since I have no choice. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Well I fixed your gender, it even has a little pink thingy with it... There never was a back to the top link, that was one of Sean's complaints with the old software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Top right hand of each thread.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Poppa Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I'm not unhappy with the changes, just gotta get used to them. I can tell you now though that I can upload files, the Basement will suddenly become more active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Fangs Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 If you try to start fresh by using the feature "mark board as read", you get an error message. Or at least I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Y Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Yeah, I couldn't find how to mark all posts as read... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 I just clicked it and it worked here, now I have no idea what I have read and what I haven't ...

Desertdawg Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Ted, Bottom of the forum. Anyone tried this on their phone? or mobile device yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1EvilC5 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 You asked for "input" so here goes (this is intended to be constructive, so please view from that perspective. . .) There used to be a button for "back to the top" on every single post, now there is only one link at the bottom. This is less convenient. The question I have is where did you go next after going to the top of the thread? The reason I ask, is I usually go back to the forum home page and I noticed there is a new link on the bottom that takes you back to the main page. The other new link is "View New Content" which I like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
