ARCHIVED FORUM -- March 2012 to February 2022READ ONLY FORUM
This is the second Archived Forum which was active between 1st March 2012 and 23rd February 2022
I was on the old forum and posted a couple of answers, what a difference, this beta is a lot faster.
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
Peter: Names back - that is great - we can ignore signatures - very good, colours in posts - the forum still cannot spell though! It doesn't like colour!! Not sure this has been mentioned but the advertising logos at the bottom are not centered under the thread - at least not on my iMac.

Working now! Can you arrange the screen to go blue from time to time so I can remember what a Windows computer is like?

When will this forum go live? It is far superior to the old forum - and the old one is suffering from the lack of regular posters.
Interesting! When writing a post, the ads are off to the left again.

What browser are you using and its version please Peter ?

Peter:When will this forum go live?
Apparently in two weeks time if there aren't any issues.
If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.
Mine shift to the left too but only slightly - leaving a 2cm gap on the right. Windows XP/Firefox 9.0.1
out of interest how many of us have mac's over pc's?
I have a mac
when replying on my mac with safari the adverts are pitched to the left!
Same here, Safari 5.1.3, OSX Lion 10.7.3.

Ditto, here at work on XP with Firefox 10.0.
At home I use Windows 7 with Firefox 10.0, and I didn't notice any issues last night. I will look again, if it's important.
@Keith Also, I could start using Explorer or Chrome on one or more of my Windows boxes if you'd like.
I use Windows 7 SP1 and IE9 on an HP laptop and the ads line up exactly

At work I just tried XP/IE8 and the ads line up properly when reading the forum and when replying.
Firefox and Safari issue?
Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3 and Firefox 10.
PC, Vista, Firefox 10, in replies the adds are all the way to the left, in forum right in the middle
I haven't run into any problems yet, PC, Windows7 and Chrome. Just added an avatar with no problems. Great work Keith! Next I need to renew my membership.

Using WindowsXP + Firefox (Home) and Windows7 + IE at work I haven't encoutered any problems so far, also the adds on the bottom are centered.
Thanks to Keith and all others involved for the great work!

After doing a few tests it appears that the issue you are seeing is linked to some (but it appears not all) versions of Firefox, rather than the forum.
Not exactly sure at this stage exactly what is happening and this will need further investigation.

I have no problems what so ever with that, tried the folders in "My Files", works, thank you, the tags still gives me 404 except SOLVED

The "Report Abuse" still gives
Not sure this is a problem or has been raised, but on the main page, if a thread has multiple pages, only 1 and 2 are shown even if there are 4. Means you cannot simply go to the last page.

That's a big problem. Well, big PITA.
Maybe addressed before (i don't know) but photo's do not seem to be displayed completely.
I took some picture via photobucket with IMG code, but only half of the picture is shown (see BS8 posting).
Anyone?

Well, to be honest, I don't like it one tiny bit.For a professional forum it's plain ugly and I can't find my way around. I can't even figure out howto upload media files, photos etc., from my PC to my library. It's just empty and the only way seemsto be from URL which can't be right.My mailbox gets cluttered up. Even if I turn "Email me replies" off, I still get an email every single timesomeone replies after me.Posting seems to work though. One tiny but still essential detail that our old forum lacked.Better than nothing, I suppose.
Probably just me getting old and grumpy.

The winter syndrome ! ;-0 , How is the big restoration project on the radiogram that you rescued ? Your threads have been missed.

Here?
Dillen:My mailbox gets cluttered up. Even if I turn "Email me replies" off, I still get an email every single timesomeone replies after me.
I had that problem and managed to stop them by setting a prefs as below, I still think it should be set as default to OFF. As it is, when everyone else moves across and the post count multiplies it's going to annoy them all!
Thanks.That's actually exactly what I mean when I say that I can't find my way around.I will try the suggested settings and upload.
Martin,
I just realised, further down on the Site Options page theres 'e-mail configuration' that needs adjusting too

I must say that I am inclined to agree with Martin, so much so that I find myself losing interest.
Definitely a retrograde step as far as presentation is concerned. I hope the software was cheap, it certainly looks it!
Thanks, Steve.
I will try to post a photo that I just uploaded.(I even had an email notice telling about my own reply !)

Well, I suppose I can live with the looks if I can figure out how it works.And I'm a moderator... Great!
I prefer it! Much, much quicker!

Thanks. The radiogram has seen some progress. Still a long way to go, though, but it looks promising.Unable to post on the old forum without timeouts etc. I couldn't be bothered taking notes anylonger.

Thats why we test this forum, dont whine, come with suggestions on how you want it, there are still things that could be done better, and we all have our different ways to work.
I still cant access new folder in "My Files" I can add a new folder, and it appears, but trying to open it I get the 404 message.
here is how it should work
Try creating your directories again and then adding a file to that directory
I am still looking into this 404 issue when creating a directory.
