Forum issues

[sonicdsl]

As I pointed out earlier in this thread, if you click the Likes You've Received link in the panel you get when hovering over your name at top right, you get them page by page and fast too. Or try this link:
http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/account/likes
This shows it more like the old forum, with quite a bit of the post showing.

 

[inspects]

Please post anything you find that you can't do here. Things like invalid links, can't post, things like that. Any chit chat or off topic posts will be removed from this thread, so please keep it on topic and post only those things you're having issues doing.

Thanks

Thanks much, retired...very nice job, I really like the new forum, nothing to report which is troublesome to me.....I know what an undertaking this was, been there, done it....Great Job to all involved...!

What happened to the shortcut to view my last post in a thread?

Also, are themes gone? I like the black/blue theme. All this white hurts my eyes.

What happened to the shortcut to view my last post in a thread?

Well, good question. I hadn't used that but once or twice over the years, so I hadn't thought of that until you asked. Perhaps retired will have an answer in the morning...? I imagine the answer is that it's not available now.
I know how to view first post (click date/time of original post on left), view first unread (click the thread title), and click the last post (click the date/time or last post on right), but not that one.

Also, are themes gone? I like the black/blue theme. All this white hurts my eyes.

They are still working on many things, and a darkened theme is one of them. So stay tuned!

Glad to hear that! Honestly I wasn't crazy about the blue font (not contrasty enough), but the dark background is a must have. I think my phone's Kindle app spoiled me permanently.

I get that, believe me! I prefer the darkened themes myself

I'm trying to disable "who's online" in my Preferences, but the Members Online Now box (on the main page) is not going anywhere. Anything I can do about that?

Thanks.

it freezes up ...these are all old messages that migrated over

I'm having a similar problem. I was able to delete one old Inbox message ("leave conversation") ok. Any attempts after that to "leave" additional conversations just gets hung up on:

.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/inline-mod/conversation/leave

and that's it. That page ^^^ doesn't load and when I go back to the Inbox the last messages I selected to "leave" are still there.

Tried selecting multiple messages or a single message - neither way works, stopping at the URL I posted. I get the confirmation box asking me if I want to leave the conversation, reply "yes"and end up with that URL in my browser with no page load.

 

[retired1]

For those of you that are trying to leave conversations, what option are you selecting when you click the "Leave Conversation" button? I just tested after selecting the "Ignore future" option and it worked just fine.

 

[daleron]

If someone is not finding a button or link that others refer to, it could be due to the browser or mobile use, etc.

Please folks, if you report an issue here, include the browser and whether you are mobile or using an app to access the forum.

I'm on Google Chrome using a desk top computer .... my user name does not show at the top and the only way I can see the alerts bar is when have one unread.
Is it supposed to be like that? I have a hard time finding my own Profile

Mine does not show up like Spartanstew's

What addons are you using? Are you using full screeen? Or is it smaller than usual?

 

[daleron]

I'm in full Screen, should I maybe try reducing ... I had increased the size of the uh ... words :laugh.
Made it easier for me to read ... give me a second.

Yep, User error
Reduced the letter sizing and now I see it, thanks retired

Got it - it's not exactly intuitive. One the old system Notifications brought you right to the obvious. One the new system Alerts means "See what alerts you have, if they are Likes then move over to your user name, hover over, get a pop up menu, select 'Likes You've* Received', open that page."

*And don't even get me started on that ridiculous contraction...

Is this the right place to ask what to do if you've forgotten your password and can't get back in?
Priorities has been unable to log-in and she's very upset

Oh no! Did she click the Forgotten your Password link?

 

[tyleris12]

Yesterday I had no problem accessing this site thru tapatalk, but this morning I keep getting a "http unregistered" error.....any ideas?

 

[daleron]

Can you do that if you're not logged in?
I'll go ask her, it will probably be a while before she responds.

**shrug** Not much we can do about Tapatalk. You may want to redo the Tapatalk settings for ECF.
