"Also, any chance of the warning that a new post has been made while typing your reply?"

In the similar large red letters please
I'm a slow typer/thinker - that too was a useful feature

Also will the "Quote" button be appearing again on individual messages while within the "reply to Thread" mode.

p.s. many thanks for doing all this work


"having buttons I could click for posts "since I last logged-in" and "replies to thread I've posted in" was a boon."
I've just spotted the "New Posts" button

It will take a little to get used to missing the right hand new posts bar. But its looking pretty slick I have to say. Not unlike Head-Fi pre spamverts.

[Duggeh]

And is it just me or can I not actually type anything in the new chatroom thing?

[postjack]

thanks tkam, I love vB. The quick reply function is a relief for mobile users, and sorry jb, but I like the lack of the new reply warning for the same reason.

All the old avatars can be found here:

Avatars

They aren't really named anything useful though so you'll probably have to check through them all to find yours.

Ha! First one I tried was mine. :P

Hmmm, tried just linking to it but it gave me an error message so I tried uploading it from my comp but although it seems to show up in the dialogue it says upload failed when I click on save and it's not showing in posts.

whoa this is intense

It will be nice to have a facelift around here. Dont see any smiles though...just icons.

[elnero]

Ok, nevermind I'm a moron....

[tkam]

[ojnihs]

i don't see any smileys either

[elnero]

I just noticed something, in the old forum I could come and check a couple of threads with new posts but leave others and when I came back even if no one had posted in them they still showed as having new posts. This new forum software acts like Head-Fi where after a certain amount of time new posts show as read. Am I making any sense?

This was my favorite feature of the Simple Machines forum, and I hope there is a way to implement this with the vBulletin software. I too like to be able to keep track of what is actually read versus what has been changed since my last visit.

Where aren't you guys seeing smilies I need more details to track this down.

[jinp6301]

and is the tag's thing really useful at all? Another forum I go to has the tags thing and all it gets used for is for trolls to mark a thread

not really, i'll probably get around to disabling them at some point.

[Dusty Chalk]

So can we bring back skins? Like light text on dark background skins? Pretty please?

[luvdunhill]

whenever I try to add an avatar from a remote link I get:

Upload failed due to failure writing temporary file.

ok this is a user profile setting, enter your user cp, then edit options then look for the last setting: message editor interface. If it's set to basic thats why you can't see the smilies choose one of the other two.
