Whoops, it all froze after sending and I got a long-running script notice from Win 7/IE 11. It closed and reopened and that post was made.



Is that your solution to the photo uploading? You have to remember to mouse over the https:// or not copy that in the URL as the https:// is in there by default in vB3.

Hey, where are the ads? Never mind, and please don't "fix" that.

Those of you who are used to vB4 and others are just going to have to get used to the vBack To The Future for a few daze, sorry. I was aware of that, with a 16+ year usage record of vB.

Nope, there is DEFINITELY a scripting error in the Quick Reply routine.

This wasn't a Quick Reply, I used the normal Reply button and now I am editing this comment further.

EDIT 2: EDIT works.

Gone to Advanced and centered.

Never mind again, there they are. When I tried posting the previous post that I quoted, things froze up, and I got that long running script message. Then it came back, but it might have been from a couple/few folks posting at once (?).

we used to be notified at the top of the page if someone quoted us. it was immediate with a page refresh. we clicked that, and it brought us to a list of past quotes in our profile, with the newest ones at the top.

now i see neither a notification nor a list of past quotes.

so if someone quotes me and needs info, i receive no notification.

I'm trying to post directly from my mobile device, be it an Android phone or tablet, or an iPhone or iPad. No using a URL or HTTP.

Multiquote works. Editor mode seems to work.

Wrapping quote tags around selected text works (it's red and bold as well now)

OOPSY, that thing about multiple lines as you scroll in editing mode, that was a problem in 4.2.1 as well...got over it.

I don't recall that in vB3 either...Tom Stormcrowe took us into vB4 a few years ago, maybe 5 or 6? You might want to go over those threads and see what we were talking about then.

BY THE BY, notifications should be a feature of subscriptions and you should see if yours came through intact into the new database. I understand this may be an unresolved problem right now.

when i go to my profile, i see a mentions tab that is now blank. i cannot see past mentions.

in new posts where posters attempt to mention someone, the mention does not appear to work properly.

in my profile where the mentions tab is, i see no quotes tab. these two tabs (mentions and quotes) used to be shown together.

The directory is not shortening the last poster, date and time so the link is running over the next column (number of threads) in many cases. I KNOW that was a problem early on with maybe vB4 as well. I am running a widescreen monitor @ 2560/whatever x I forget with Windows 7/IE 11.

stardognine: Since I am a Ti member I would need to sign out to verify the lack of ads.

Hang on, I'm booting another PC to do this.

I tried to subscribe to a thread lately and notifications on the site itself were not an available option, only email.

@Rollfast <-- mention test, that's not working either
#bicycle tag test <-- not that either

all i know is it (a quotes list under my profile) was available yesterday.

with this new update, how does a poster know when he was quoted?

thanks.

That was already part of the site, and still is.

GO ADVANCED, MANAGE ATTACHMENTS, and select from your phone library whatever pics you want to upload.

I think they are wanting thumbnails instead of URLs and links. Wasn't that working in the demo? It sounds like the database will take a few more days to finish integration but we are here.
