cross-posting this here as well, as some of you might find this helpful ...

here's a video tip i just learned.

if you want to add video, you just paste in the link.

but if you want to hide video within text using "url" html, you now need to place single quotes around the video link, like this.

previously to this rollout, no quotes were needed.

double quotes will give the video a title.

single quotes will hide the video within the text.

I am still not able to post more than 1 photo!!
Seems like I need to back out for a while, when they said "upgrade" I thought "Awesome" I wish they had of told the truth and said they were downgrading one of the best Bikeforums on the net!!!
A serious blunder.
I enjoy the forum as a relaxation tool, with faster paced busy lives nowadays why should we be expected to learn all of this stuff only to have a forum that is now clunky ?

It appears that no IB person has responded in this thread since IBxAnders in post 8. Maybe the thread is still being read, but I suspect this is a case of shouting into the wind with no one around to hear.

It strikes me that there are two kinds of "issues", those involving things which don't work and those involving poor choices for seemingly minor details. In my experience people who should be working on the issues tend to see the former but ignore the latter by dismissing them as merely the dissatisfaction of users used to the older ways. Or to put it another way, this is a challenge to BF administrators to consider the "minor" details we complain about as real rather than to believe that their own judgment on such things is flawless.

One would hope though Jim that the software upgrade was to enhance the experience of being on the forum, seems to be a case of "Well, that was a stuff up, let's just act like everything is OK, until they stop talking about it"

I call for the old forum to be put back in place because it sure functioned better.
