    Interesting. Apparently if I come here under a proxy, it works just fine. Default proxy I can only read 2 replies and the rest of the page doesn't load. Different proxy=no problems.<br /><br />Wtf???

    <br />Just a quick note for those that can't wait: I have found the 'view first unread post' button.<br /><br />Go to unread posts, which is the same as the list you got at the phpbb forum, then click on the 'new' button.<br /><br />Voila!<br />
    <br /><br />[size=10pt]Where is the 'new" button? I can't seem to find it....but I will keep looking.[/size]<br />
    <br /><br />Click 'unread posts since last visit' on top next to your avatar, and you will get a list with the active topics that have new posts in them. In that list you see the new button next to the thread title.<br />
    <br /><br />in the "unread posts since last visit" section - is it possible to include the original date that a subject was started - for example under subject it lists the subject title followed by "started by (screen name)  in (forum subject)".  this would help me to determine if the subject is new material or old news.  Thank you ~ the site looks great!

    Thank you! That works for me! Phew!<br /><br />One other question. How do you find the threads that you've posted in? (other than show new replies to your posts) For instance, I read your response in this thread, then went back to the index board. Then I wanted to respond to this thread, but it no longer showed up when I clicked on "new replies", because I had already read it.  I had to click back several times on my browser to find it. Does that make sense? <br /><br />I understand that you can search for key words, but often times I don't know the exact name of the thread to do a search. Thank you for your patience in helping us get familiar with the new forum.<br /><br /><br />

    <br /><br />Never mind that post either....I was wrong again.  :'(  This new forum makes me feel like a bonehead.....and I normally can troubleshoot/figure things out fairly easily.  Where's that smashing the computer icon?  Lol!

    Everything's looking better all the time!  :)<br />Just wondering-- is there a way to change the time to my time?  I don't see it in my profile.<br />And are all the old pics/videos posted in threads- gone forever?
  • anewfananewfan Posts: 1,125
    Okay....I think I figured a semi-easier way to find posts that you haven't read. (not just those since your last visit)<br /><br />1. Click view new posts since last visit<br />2. Go to the bottom of page.....on the bottom right it says "view all unread posts" (it's a dark gray button right next to a button that says "mark all posts read")<br /><br />That will get you a list of all the threads that have posts that you haven't read.  <br /><br /> :) Hopefully this helps.

    <br />off topic: why when you use the quote button you get the quick reply window with no options and on the reply button you get all the perks and now quote? makes it difficult. sorry to piss and moan souza but i don't get it.<br />
    <br /><br />hey, instead of using[size=14pt] Quote[/size] button, just go to [size=14pt]Replay[/size] button and use [size=14pt]Insert Quote[/size] tab, that you still have in all of the posts in the thread :)

    <br /><br /><br />thank you.  got to get used to extra things showing up at the bottom of the page.  ;D <br /><br />since i am here i have a question for souza. it seems like it is possible that you are working on some aspects of the program during certain times of the day , which bring on delays and so on. would it be best if as a temporay measure when sort took it easy during say certain hours while you are trying to finish things up ?  or are the delays ect. just part of the deal that we need to get used to? hope i am making sense  ??? :-[ :-\

    I seem to have lost all the new stuff...like the shout box...the calendar...all that along the page sides...WHAT ABOUT YOU ALL?<br />Plus, I'd have ask in chat..but where's that?

    <br /><br /><br />hi ford!  i think some of the stuff is disappearing and reappearing simply because souza  is still tweeking ( either that or she has gotten into magic  :) ) so it might go on for a while, maybe . that is my theory anyway. :D

    <br />Yes go to your profile page and notifications, uncheck the box and save.

    Any reason why Facebook videos won't embed? I tried the trick that was posted earlier with tweaking the link, but that didn't work. It is just a big white square on one of my posts.<br /><br />I love that all the smilies are back! Thank you!

    <br />I'm thinking maybe having all that stuff on the sides made each page load slower. You have to click at the top to get them now. If that is the reason, I think it's an improvement, because it was unbearably slow before, for me and not now! Thanks to Souza!<br />
