Any things you notice that aren't working, or any questions you have about the new layout, just post in here.

If the background is a bit too bright for you, click on the little icon in the header that looks like a mountain with a sun over it. You can change to a different header which has a darker background. When you've selected which one you want, click the little icon again and it will close the box.

What’s the score with those articles in purple Dave? Dated 2019 and don’t seem to move. 

Scheduled articles that I haven't decided when to post yet. Set them to next year to give me time to figure out when I want to do it. Only admin and moderators can see them, although it would be better if it were just admin as it means you have to scroll past them and its a pain in the arse.

I can't access the MF or paid content. My old sub expired today but as we talked about on the MF I renewed a few days ago but it didn't automatically update itself. Sort it out please. 

Had to update it manually as the rebuild isn't finished yet. Should all be ok at your end now though.

Site running very slow at the moment. I think there's a decent chance that the background rebuild is what is slowing things down. Not really anything that can be done at the moment if it is that, as the process needs to be completed in order for everything to work as it should.

I'll monitor it today and see how it goes.

Overall, after a few days to get used to it, I either like or don't care about most of the changes.

 

2 questions:

 

1. Is there a way to put the post number somewhere on the post? I can't see any other way to tell how close I am to the bottom of a page of posts. I know I used to set it so that it displayed 20 posts/page, I think now it's 25? Basically, I'd like to be able to tell how many posts are left to read before I'm going to have to click over to the next page, if that's possible to return.

 

2. What is the difference between "upvote" and "like"? Does one give rep and one doesn't? Which one should we use, if there is a difference?

There used to be a button on the last forum, which up pressed (in the top left) to get rid of the quotes / font etc & it showed the code so you couldn't format properly.

 

Where has that gone?  If I quote something now, but want to get rid of the quote marks, how can I do it?

 

Must admit I preferred the old version of the forum, based on my initial impressions.  Maybe I don't know where the new stuff is.  But little things I find annoying on this version.  Less user friendly.
