New layout

[Grimly]

I'm still having trouble posting pictures. Says " Image resize failed due to your library not having support for this Image type"... Maybe I have to resize the picture I'm trying to post??
I usually don't have problems posting pictures on other forums... I'll keep trying.

I found that out. Just ignore the 'image' button and paste the whole image URL into the body of the message and it shows up perfectly.

I just posted pics in my 82 1100 thread....no issues using my photobucket the same way as before

When you go to latest topics it always shows the very first post...so you don't know if something new has been posted to it unless you click on it....Whew I'm having troubles making this user friendly.

If you've already read it, the title is different, just like a previously clicked link. If someone added something, it is brighter and bolder.

I probably just don't understand what you're trying to do.

Not impressed so far.
I've lost a few folders in which I'd kept some useful posts from others with information in them.
The 'filters' are rubbish, they don't stick and have to be chosen every time.
The threads are upside down - which is the most egregious of all.

Also the members info (site supporter, where they are from and post count) is not showing when the member posts.

I see yours right now.... 17705 posts

Yes, the number of posts is shown under the username, below site supporter, join date, etc. Seems you have to click on the username to reveal the member’s location. This is going to take some getting use to. I do like having the “like” button. Can’t yet figure out how to view the forum in “full site” mode on my phone. I generally dislike the mobile versions of any forum.

I don’t see a way to get to the site’s home page that shows BOTM from the forum. Used to be a link at the bottom right of the page. I’m sure Frank will figure it all out.

if you didnt delete the old version and its not hard to setup you could have a classic layout and then this one and itd just be a quick change on the layout.

Something else I have noticed....when in a thread and then I hit my computer's back button...it takes me to the forum page again...not to the previous page...so you have to kind of start your search over again...

I would just like to clarify the possible issue with photos. I am assuming here that Norm was attempting to upload a photo to the site and both Trevor and Grimly were embedding remote URL jpg links. Am I correct in that? If that is so I would like to ask if Grimly got 'image resize' error message above when he tried the IMG button. And, Trevor, you had no problem using the IMG button? Correct me where needed on any of this, please.

I lost my own avatar in the switch and had a similar experience to Norm's when trying to re-upload it. We will for a few days no doubt be in the learning curve and minor glitch phase of the update. I am knocking on wood that it has gone as smoothly as it has thus far. (Hope I am not jinxing it)

Hi Don,

All I do in photobucket is hover on the pic I want to post and left click and copy and paste...easy peasy...I can even do it.

And signatures appear to have gone away.

never mind, I figured out there was a radio button in my profile/account settings for signatures that was turned off.

I don't see the signature or post counts or where the person is from...just this...and yes, I have the signature turned on

[trevor]

Another super annoying thing is when I go to latest activity....it just shows whoever started the first thread and their original post....so you have to actually click on it each time to see if there have been any new posts to the thread....

Hmm. Trevor, maybe there’s something in your account settings that’s turned off. My screen looks like this:
