    Haha no need to defeat any monsters but XP is awarded when you earn achievements for doing things throughout the site. We have a list of achievements here Achievements and as you do more on the site your number of achievements and XP will increase and then optionally you can display achievements in your post bit if you'd like

    I don't have that menu with all those options on my blog entries page.

    Hey there! I checked your permissions and you should be able to edit your blog, could you check and let me know if you're still running into this issue?

    Where is new posts? So far displeased with changes and not at all a fan of the red, blue was much easier on the eyes. Imo you've fixed what wasn't broken.
    New posts can be found here New posts or by clicking the arrow next to forums and clicking new posts in the sub navigation :)

    Can't do a screen shot . . . Avatar is now deform and only shows the center of the image - the "World" with the Gay rainbow over lapping it and a Man standing next to the world (Actually it is a copy of the "Man from Uncle" tv show logo). Also, my ECF nickname "Uncle" is cut off.

    As for an additional fix, being able to adjust the size of text - right now it is way to small.


    Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

    Hi, wanted to look into this a bit more. If you have the ability to send a screenshot that would be very helpful! Could you give me more details about your ECF nickname being cut off?

    Text size can be controlled from your preferences page here! https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/account/preferences

    Okay, found something else that needs to be fixed - The location icon under avatar or in profile - brings you to google maps and shows where some is located . . . NOT NICE ! ! ! :nah::censored::mad:
    Hey there, I checked in the backend and I don't believe that location is required to be on your account, so if you go here, it can be removed https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/account/account-details

    Also, you can control who has viewing access to your account details here https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/account/privacy

    Click on your username on the top of a page. Click on the icon of a head with a gear next to it. Click on 'Preferences'. You can change text size there. At first I just had my browser text size increased, then I set it back and changed the font size here to 'extra large'..
    Had to dig down deep - but finally found the text adjustment link . . . EXTRA LARGE . . . It is . . . :headbang:

    I still can't see the "More options" column on the right in your screenshot, and no amount of my--very inexpect--foraging for it has revealed it.

    Is anyone else having this problem?
    Got it! We'll take a look at this again to find a fix

    Hey there! I checked your permissions and you should be able to edit your blog, could you check and let me know if you're still running into this issue?

    I'm still missing the menu of blog options that has the ability to edit my blog entries as you showed previously.

    To be clear, this is the page URL I am viewing.
    Code:
    https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/blog/blog/unclejunkle.49006/
    If I am on the wrong page URL, please let me know what is the correct one and how to get to it in the future.

    Also, I find it a bit strange that there is no edit option on each entry when viewing the entry and that you have to go to a specific page to get to the edit function. I have a feeling this is a setting in the theme or in Xenforo that has to be configured because it makes no sense to not have that edit function inside each blog entry as it was before.

    That's always been there.

    Never saw it or have it happen previously . . . The question was where are you?
    My reply was a sarcastic quip "Right in front of you" (on the internet and your viewing screen) . . . And after 11 years here - I have never once did I see the Google location icon. . . Nor was I taken to Google maps,, unless it was set-up for a social group (like I did for Smokeless Image and Florida group). There should be an option for people to "Opt Out" without having to remove the name of the place where they live from their profile . . . Just Sayin' . . . :rolleyes:

    No monster slaying? Darn it! So is there any reward besides being able to display them?

    The original avatar was made to fit the allotted size of the square space . . . Now it is a smaller size circle overplayed the box . . . Also - the "Online" icon sits right on top of the avatar obscuring the image, instead of in a corner.

    This happen before with the newer versions of ECF when they changed the format before . . . Thankfully we still had the ability to change back to the older interface. And - NO - I do not have access to the original image to try and make any adjustents. Maybe ECF can change the avatar "box" back to a square . . . Just a thought . . . :blink:

    Yea - I have already set my privacy levels to limit acess years ago, but that really doesn't address the problem . . . It's a shame I have to delete my quip to protect my privacy.
