Forum upgrade

[Sturdee]

Having done a search using the New Posts button I am unable to find the Mark All Forums Read Button. Can anyone tell me where it is hiding?

Had the same problem myself ... try under the "Quick Link" drop down. It does seem a little odd that a quick link that used to take one step now takes two thanks to the "quick link" feature

Where am I? Lost in Space perhaps?

Well I reckon it looks great, feels great and tastes alright as well.

Good onya Neil obviously "Ubeaut's still the one" (not sure about my spelling and punctuation tho.

Happy motoring

Hows the layout now?

The more I play, the more I love it!

Why is it that we, who did not have an unusual decription prior to the upgrade, are now described as "Registered User" ? Bit strange as unregistered users ( guests) can not post.

I also note that the ability to change these descriptions is also now removed.

Sturdee - Nothing to my knowledge has been removed only lots of new features added. You can still change your description by going to the User CP and then into Edit Profile....... It's still there as it always was.

You can also do lots of other cool things like having a range of fonts in your post.

Cheers - Neil

Love the upgrade. Got a bit lost at first but all fine now - well done guys/gal.

This is heaps better than the old board .
Is it possible that we can have a separate window opening for the profiles of members as we used to have with the old board? I found this to be a lot faster to use, as rather than having to use the back button and wait for the page to reload, I just had to close the extra window and I was back on the board again.

Neil, that's what I looked, however it only allows your Email & Password, Location, Optional Information and the Additional Information to be changed but not the description.

Bob,

You can choose to open any link or button to a "new window" by simply clicking on the button/member name/link/etc with the right mouse button, then click on "Open link in new window" it's the second option down.

(Almost) Anything is easy when you know how

Oh, the new Forum format is great.

Hi Ben
Yes thanks, I did know that, I just preferred the way it used to happen in the original BB.

I noticed that as well...although I would have thought that "Registered User" was in fact a very unusual description!

No chance of changing at the moment unless the menu is hidden somewhere less obvious.

As Neil said: Go into UserCP.

Edit profile.

2nd Box down Optional Information - All information will be viewable by other forum members

Custom User Title; Add what you want and save changes.

Hi Bob

I just found if you click on the thread starters name in the search results it opens their profile in a new window as you want.
