Hey Doug, is the PM link at the top right gone forever??? I tried different styles to see if it was there, but no linky?? I see the pm box on the homepage, but it was just convenient up there by unread messages link. Or is it just my computer??? :tex

yeah - I had about 80 templates to update manually and my eyes must have gotten crossed when I was doing the edits

Should be better now

Also got rid of the redundant links in the navbar

While we are at it you can add tags to threads that you think you might want to be able to find again

The tags allow you to add a search criteria to the thread that may not exist in the thread itself

What happened to the 'New Posts' button on the tool bar

I can add it back but I dont think it was on the old version and I was trying to cleanup the nav bar so it would show correctly on lower resolutions

[dboat]

ok, what is the "delicious" and "stumbleupon" below the reply area?

All 4 are similar social network sites - I disabled the last 2 as to introduce the idea slowly

I typcially enable most of the offered options then see what is used and turn off the other stuff

As far as Im concerned we can turn off the socail networks, the thread ranking, the infractions, and lots of other stuff that isnt used
The new VB version also includes its own mini photo gallery - which since we have a gallery it could be turned off as well

[Silver_2000]

Looks like thats fixed

[dboat]

This is going to be a great feature now.. thanks again

[dboat]

Wait a minute, it put it in again.. dang it.

[Silver_2000]

ok splain to me exactly what you are doing to get the sig

I quick replied to the thread ( I never use quick reply ) and it didnt put in a sig

I then edited that and saved it and still no sig

[dboat]

When I click on the quick reply button in the bottom left hand corner, it activates the quick reply box to post in. The show your signature box just below is automatically checked to show the sig. It didnt do it the very first time but every time since it has.. so try it again and see if you get the same results.

Dana

[Silver_2000]

what style are you using ?

No -not your cookies just the temp internet files

which browser ?

In internet explorer just go to tools internet options - delete - then choose - delete files ( top button )

In Firefox its Tools - clear private data - uncheck everything except cache - then click the clear private data button then close the browser and reopen it

Uh oh ....


Uh you have issues ....

[dboat]

Well that doesnt sound good..

well I fixed this one just now.. I had it on simple editor which takes out all the smilies.. so I went full bore with full WYSIWYG mode.. and they are now back but the default of having the sig show up when do a quick reply isnt fixed.. but I may try to reboot and remove the files again..

Doug, is the fact that my BB code is on might be causing this issue?

where do you set BB code ?

[dboat]

where do you set BB code ?

heck, I dont know, but I was just looking around in the User CP and then around the page and it was the only thing I could find that had anything to do with a signature.. so it was a shot in the dark. This is just so weird.

Dana

[dboat]

I just tried it on a different computer to see if there was a difference..nope, same response.

Dana

[dboat]

one of the nice things about a quick reply, it allows you to keep watching a video play that is embedded while you are typing up a response. That part is pretty cool.

[dboat]

Doug, is this how yours is setup in User CP?

and then if still broke send me your password

[Silver_2000]

Im using that as well and I dont get any sig ....

edited and added attachment

Well the reason I didnt was that at some point I must have deleted my sig

There is an IF statement in the page that say IF the user HAS a sig show the check box - Since I had none - I got no box

Since I think Sigs are over rated - I removed the entire line of code - so it should be gone now- That was a weird one ...

[dboat]

Well, it still defaults to being checked.. maybe I should remove my signature or uncheck that box. ok just unchecked the box and it didnt go away.. here is a weird one. as I am typing in this quick reply, the check on the "show your signature" comes and goes as I hit the space bar between words..

Dana

[dboat]

Doug, am I paid up? I got a warning that I had 29 PM's and am only allowed 10, also, I dont see supporting member by my avatar..

Please let me know.

Well, I guess I was living on borrowed time.. that block wasnt there before I paid and now it is.. so I am good to go for another year..
