Xen Foro tips and tricks

[Lori2014]

I've been thinking about the 200 post limit, and the potential slow down if it is increased. Why couldn't we simply hit New Posts, browse the 200, then hit it again? Would the first 200 then no longer be "new", so another 200 would display?

Only if you opened all 200 of them (and had the settings done correctly - new posts vs todays posts)

OK ... I had thought that once they were on my screen, they were no longer "new" to me, even though they may be "unread". And yes, I am set for "new", not "today" on this

And speaking of helpful, I'd love to see that video demonstrating how to drag and drop images in Chrome.

Never mind. Just figured it out--wow, that's nice.

Slick, ain't it?

Image drag and drop just worked for me in FF! I thought it was only Chrome.
Now...it's slick. Lemme try it again:

from tab to tab, atty? or window to window?

Like the image drop, works in FF, Image removed, wrong thread for a test. Sorry.

 

[AttyPops]

Window to window, Tibs.

Ewww Burnie! We had those in Hawaii, but worse were the centipedes!

Ignore forum is just that, you have the ability to ignore specific forums from showing up in your search results.

If you ignore someone, no, they aren't notified.

And lastly, you'll have to set up your RSS feeds again.

I may be being blind (or blinded by all this white) but how does one ignore a forum? I can find how to ignore people, but not forums.

beside the place where you can watch or unwatch a forum on the top right had side of the page, there is a button that says "ignore forum". I think. Might want to get a second opinion here.

Hi Amoret--there is a Forums You Ignore button on top of the page--blue bar--right next to your User Info box... Click on it and select the forums you want to ignore.

I must have missed the original comment on 'drag and drop' but is this from lightgeoduck's posts from 2010 or something new in xenforo?

And I'm assuming that it won't work in just windows but need google chrome (or ff) for it to work, right?

 

[AttyPops]

It's a new board thing using the Windows drag-and-drop thing. So use file manager and select a pic and drop it into a reply...you get buttons for full-image or thumbnail.

So yeah, you need a browser. FF and Chrome were mentioned. IDK if I got the context correct, but I seem to remember only Chrome worked before. That's why I made the post above. FF worked for me!

 

[Bamrz]

Firefox works fine for me!

Ok. I'm assuming that in win7 it's the 'libraries' and the pic has to have already been saved there.... I may try it out

Like the image drop, (if it works), in FF, just a test. And yes this was in my house in Florida.

EGADS!!!

Firefox works fine for me!

And for me as well, Ms. Bamz.

Near the top of each and every Forum and Thread are the following Options on the far right side of the "Title Bar" :

Forums : Watch Forum Ignore Forum Threads: Watch Thread Ignore Thread


Hope this helps . . .
