Technical Issues After August 13, 2012 Maintenance

[NittanyLion]

Hey a mobile version! Now I can post from my phone, which previously was impossible. And it's formatted better, page layout-wise.

There are some issues. I like the look, though, although functionality remains to be determined...

One thing I missed right away is the lack of ability to jump to anything but page one direct from the post list. That's going to drive the folks that like to hang out at the cafe nuts, when they have to always go to page 1 before jumping to page 53 or whatever...

My stepson was a IT type for some years and he chuckled over this issue. He said, techies really don;t care what users think. This is what they give you. The techies don't normally use the software anyway. If they do, they know what to do. Deal with it is the techies motto.

I have gotten a hold of IT Support and the one thing they are suggesting we try to cut down on the massive amounts of email notification is to go the the Email Notifications section and lick "Remove" on each of the forums listed.

I am hoping they can do this for us all in bulk...

New format sucks. Too much blank space on screen requiring me to page down to see anything.

I sure liked the 50 posts per page that we had before.  Now there is way too few to see at a glance.

How do you quote others as you reply?

Rich

If you click on reply, a new window opens up. If you click on "use rich formatting", it opens another window with the quote selection in it.

They've changed the format on us before, and we all pretty much adapted. Let's give it a chance to relearn some things and give it a chance before gathering up the pitchforks, torches and starting the vats of oil boiling. Personally, I like the larger type; it's easier on these old folks' eyes.

1. Is it possible to have the "EMAIL ME REPLIES TO THIS POST" check box un-checked as the default rather than the other way around?  I prefer not have reply notices sent to my e-mail address if I forget to un-check the box.  There also doesn't appear to be a way to change that in edit mode once you've posted.
   

Holy Batman !

I have about 6,567,894 replies in my personal email box.  Now I see what you mean, Tom.

Turn that stupid "Email me replies to this post" thing off.

Hi Rich!

Testing..1,2,3..3,21.

Let's see then.

It seems the default setting is now to "EMAIL ME REPLIES TO THIS POST". If you go to  your profile, you can unclick this setting.

I also really liked being able to jump directly to different pages from the main menu. Hope we can put that back in.

[BRAKIE]

How about a delete option?

Yeah? How? When I go to my profile it doesn't show ANY selections that can be selected or deselected.

EDIT: Ah ha! Found it!

Looks like change for the sake of change to me. We'll see how easy it is to post this. (I used the post above test the quote function.)
