Xen Foro tips and tricks

[jafmf95]

Didn't see this one covered, but a bunch of my previously deleted (200+) PM's got restored into conversations - I can't seem to get rid of them. I tried 'leave conversation', but I just get a blank page.

zoiD, that's correct. It's a social group for the B Box. (It WAS, but perhaps the old posts did not transfer over. No matter.)

I don't know about you? But I'm getting Overloaded with all the New Features and things to Check Out.

And all the New Ways to do thing.

LOL

So, who all sees ads now?

Before it was only when you're not logged in.

Now it appears they are present for those logged in also?

Do supporting members see ads now too?

I'm not in overwhelm...... yet. But I do have a coupla questions.

Ok to ask in here, @retired1?

Still being worked.

Fire away.

You may have to try later. We're running something in the background that's going to take priority.

Thanks. Is there a place to set a different font if we don't wish to use the Trebuchet?

Unfortunately, no.

You can, however, set a new font for posting. That's done via the toolbar in the editing box.

If you're attempting to add a link to the banner, it's not going to work. Currently, there's a 2 link limit for signatures.

Where's the 'what's new' button

"New posts" up near the top

 

[edyle]

"New posts" up near the top

Nope that's not it.
That's more like "today's posts" or latest posts.

I used to use this forum by clicking on What's New and it would filter threads that I had contributed to so I would be able to follow up.

I guess it wasn't in the default format, which is what the forum has reverted to for me, and apparently I can't go back to the old format.

Mouse over your username at the top right of the page. In the drop down, select "Your Content".

Try hovering over your username up near the top. A menu opens. Select "Your Content"

Ah!
So they made it harder for some reason.
Thanks.

When I click on previous (B4 change-over) ECF thread links I've bookmarked I get:

ECF - Error
The requested page could not be found.

Is this just because you're still making changes...or will I have to "Search" for ALL the threads I follow?

 

[retired1]

There's still some tweaking that needs to be done with redirects.
