Update of Server / Forum Software

Post by jordanr »

Hi all!

I updated the server and software. There are some bugs and that I am working on. By the end of tomorrow I should have it smoothed out.

Whew!

I tried to log in last night, and got some generic screen. Much relief!

May I humbly request you warn us next time?

Hi Richard,
Like the clean look. And I appreciate the little avatar next to my name at the top when logged in. Good work.

Leo

PS
Am I missing something? The "Post a Reply" box is missing all the bells and whistles (links–quotes-etc.)? The "Options" tab below does nothing.

I tried to keep look the same and upgrade to latest version of underlying software.

I see the links / quotes options at the top of the post reply box. Where are you looking?

For us "technology-Challenged types", it took me a little while, but I like some of the new features!!

Here is what I see. Nothing at the top.
The 'Options' button brings nothing.

Oh, the "formatting" buttons? They appear on mine...

Leo, clear out your cache/history....then when you come back on the site again, it should "force" them into view.

And good to have the full, detailed " advanced search" function back :)

Well, nothing has changed. I forced a reload (Ctrl + F5): not change.

I logged in via a different browser (Chrome): still do not see the "formatting" buttons.

And the "Options" at the bottom doesn't work either.

Fresh new look, but still the Feldgrau feeling.
I like it, thanks for the effort!

Just missing the "new posts" "active topics" etc. buttons. Some bug on my side, or they are removed?
If removed, would be nice if only temporarily.

Edit: Sorry, found it! If anyone else is wondering, its behind the Quick Links button :)
