mello yello 5,065 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Cons ... had to sign in again log-in didnt carry over from the old forum, so as a guest this part of the website isnt visible friends list didnt carry over from the old version i noticed your screen name was enough to get you in, previously you could have used a more secure log-in name parts of the script look a bit wobbly, edit: appears to have settled now still having a problem with apostrophes cant find a way to edit my signature which contains a very large YouTube pop-up now, where it was just a link before edit: nevermind, found it via a dropdown menu on your username, and removed link to a YouTube otherwise it shows a huge quarter page YouTube preview panel sorted ;-) post count is being incremented in this section, so does that mean OT posts count now ? pros ... PMs appear to have carried over most users online 976 record (over SNA) has carried over edit: (this seems to have changed to 1032 now) twice as many members as SNA has carried over as well edit: (seems to have changed from 92775 to 98664 now) for the record : prior to changeover 1,921,219 posts made as at 22/7/2016 Australias Leading Audio Visual and Home Theatre Forum claim confirmed emoticons work, could do with a few more though < Alfa Romeo lives here, thats all that matters Edited July 23, 2016 by mello yello Link to post Share on other sites

mello yello 5,065 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 ah, you condensed all my posts into the one post, thanks can you also restore my senior membership status now ? and over 24K posts ? Link to post Share on other sites

mello yello 5,065 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) lol thats ok, i never said please I noticed youve given yourself a 5000 reputation and i have zero is this like a golf score thing (how would i go about liking my own posts) i assume it has to do with the heart icon over on the far right? but its unclickable, i tried to <like> your post, but couldnt (click it) Edited July 23, 2016 by mello yello Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Case 0 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 It's not the heart that you click, it's the green up or red down arrow. You won't have seen them, because Scorchie doesn't have them (overly sensitive to criticism, perhaps?) and you don't see your own. You should be able to see mine now that someone else is in this thread. Link to post Share on other sites
mello yello 5,065 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) ah, clicked yours, refreshed the page and it has added one to your heart tally you are now the most liked (non-admin) member on the forum with a plus 1 cant tell if that heart tally on that particular post is for the number of times that post was liked as i cant see any of your other posts, but as time will tell, i guess that heart tally is that posts total likes Edited July 23, 2016 by mello yello Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Case 0 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Let's see what happens if I give each of yours a click. Edit: yep, there you go. Under your name is the cumulative total across the forum, within each post is total for that post only. Makes sense.

pgdownload 1 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Hi Is there some way to filter out all the RSS auto added newsfeed stuff? Regards Peter Gillespie Link to post Share on other sites
pgdownload 1 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Stop reputationing me! I can't help the post count but if I'm going to build my reputation (ironic huh) as a Maverick Dark Horse then I need the highest post count coupled with the lowest reputation.

Nevyn72 40 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Also, is there any notification in the user's member panel (left hand side) or otherwise that they are online? Every other forum I'm on at least lets you know if someone is online at any given time. Link to post Share on other sites
pgdownload 1 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 So this is weird. Not sure if its related to my HIDE SIGNATURES choice but some members have huge info lists under their avatar in posts (so they write one line response but the post takes up half a page.

mello yello 5,065 Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I found a workaround for the RSS Feed cluttering up the Activity List click the "mark forum as read" icon next to the RSS Feed subforum, then filter Activity for <unread content> and violin!!, all RSS stuff has now "been read", and wont show I mean you hardly would want to see what you have already read, yes?

Guest Malich Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 (edited) Any chance of making the 'Topics' & 'Posts' sidebars on the right of the front page individually collapsable / hideable again, as they used to be? Also, not seeing these mythical red/green up/down "like" arrows (FF 38.8.0 ESR - yes, I know it's not the very latest). Please don't "fix" this ... Not a fan of the theme's larger titles & names / larger avatars & badges / etc & the resultant excess whitespace, but that's a personal choice. I understand you Windows types prefer that now . I can fix that for myself with some custom CSS. When I looked earlier, not all the editor options (e.g. font size) were available in the signature editor. Possible to add them? Still think many of the stickies around the place are pointless, outdated, or redundant, but that's a secondary issue.

(edited for clarity & testing purposes ) Hi, Topics/Post sidebar are site wide, so probably not Arrows etc are there if the browser supports it Sorry! Added size to the editor, but there are three editors depending on the function. Would prefer not to add more.. Agreed, please send a list of ones that should go sooner than later Link to post Share on other sites
