Administrators Chad Posted December 17, 2022 Administrators Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi all, I hope you are all safe and doing well. Just popping in to apologize for the extended maintenance yesterday through today. It went a bit longer than I'd hoped, but the end result is I was finally able to move the forums to a better web server and updated the underlying software. So, the forums should be a little "snappier" now. If you run across any odd issues with the forums, please let me know here. Thanks! 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side comment, I go to a tractor forum. (not sure what happened above, I tried to put a link there) anyway, they have several commands.... one of them is "Today's Posts" and it sorts only on today's posts.... or another "New Posts" which sorts on new posts. I have ALWAYS loved that feature....you can go to "Today's Posts" and see if there is anything new much faster than here (unless I'm missing something here). Just trying to give some ideas that might make the user experience (for us old dunderheads) more efficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very customizable. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-BOOM Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Hi, whatever it was it reset my account to a very old user name (B-Boom) instead of my current name. Boom3. I restored my account because it no longer recognized my Boom3 log-in credentials. Help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go into the Settings section there’s a spot you can go to and change your forum name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still stumbling a bit trying to follow your path....right now am looking at "Content View Behavior" and my bullet is on "Take me to the beginning" If I were to click on "take me to latest comment" I'm guessing it takes me to the latest comment in EVERYTHING I open all the time (??) Still trying to find your page (I'm looking at settings) My wondering to myself is... does this selection you say exists.... ALWAYS take you ONLY to what your selection is? Or does it create a radio button where you can activate it on demand? It's the on demand feature that I think is so nice on the other forum. Still figureing this out though, thank you for pointing it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom3. I restored my account because it no longer recognized my Boom3 log-in credentials. Help! One of the things that was updated is the way you log in. Because of security reasons, you are now required to use your email address to log in, instead of your screen name. If the email address you used was associated with your old account, that's why you see what you see. There is a way I can merge accounts though, so if anyone needs that, they can message me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
