Alexia Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 is there only one layout option? i want the sub-silver or whatever it was called option back. i don't like the green. otherwise the change is good. a lot of options now in regards to profile and such. I turned on the default IP.Board skin. It might be to your liking, maybe not, let us know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJRemi Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 It'll take getting used to and I definitely need mountainman's avatar to be much larger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neohic Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Okay... I'm still looking around and trying to figure everything out, and I came across the "rate the member" option. Why do we need to rate each other? Kinda middle school, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedaw Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I, personally, love it! I'm sure there are some kinks to be worked out still. However, IPB is a much better platform to work with, I think. Looking forward to what's to come. :thumbsup: :banana: This guy used to be my favorite. And now I have him again!! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: EDIT: First thing I've noticed, the only BB codes for smilies do not seem to work. Old threads have the :yes: code, but no emoticon. :dunno: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogmorgo Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Looks pretty good, I've been here less than a week, so I wasn't really all that used to everything anyway. It was a bit of a shock though when I came here this morning, though... But overall :rock on: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 we're getting there. it's going to be a process to iron out issues and get it to act more like the old forums. :thumbsup: I added in a question for new sign ups. I'm assuming that should cut down on spammers, though I'm not certain what was in place before. I just know it said there were 0 questions.

JeepcoMJ Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Alexia, can you please put the mark all topics read button directly on the main forum page like it used to be? I don't like having to go to all sorts of drop down stuff for that feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainman Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Can someone please explain this ^^^ why would you mark topics as read? what am i missing here? Its a forum, you revisit topics all the time to see new comments and new pics? what does "mark as read" do? ive never even seen it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 and how do I get the IP board to never change topics to "read" unleass I've read them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 by the way, the "quick reply" box is nice :yes: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexia Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 and how do I get the IP board to never change topics to "read" unleass I've read them? I changed the default setting to 30 days. So if you really do not read a topic for 30 days, it will get marked as read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexia Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 by the way, the "quick reply" box is nice :yes: Is this emoticon broke? O_o Nope, apparently it is just you, Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepcoMJ Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Every time I log on, I check the forums and sub forums, and click only the topics that interest me. The rest that I don't care to view, I then use the mark read button so that I won't have to see them pop up in bold, and so that next time I'm on, I can see where there are new and potentially relevant topics. its a reset button so that I know the next time what's new, so that I can look at it in a concise organized fashion rather than the unorganized hell that is the new topics button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepdoggydogB Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Very good work Alexia! Last year I converted 3500 mailboxes in sendmail to Exchange 2010, and I was also able to convert their sent mail, contacts and inboxes. I really appreciate what you have done here keeping our history intact, and I also appreciate that being the Architect of change can sometimes seem unappreciated. Please know that I appreciate what you have done, and I am impressed at how easy you made it seem. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Yep, great job. Kudos to Alexia.

What time zone is the forum set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 What's the deal with avatars? I didn't delete my avatar, but it's gone, and I can't find the user CP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepdoggydogB Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Hello Paradise, Look at the top right on the screen where you see your user name click, and you will see your user profile, click your avatar to change. I just upgraded my Mac Mini Server from Lion to Mountain Lion, and I am getting many questions from my users....I am having a great time digesting all the new features, and can hardly wait to see all the new features with this upgrade.

JeepcoMJ Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 the "mark community read" feater doesn't seem to work, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Automan2164 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 the "mark community read" feater doesn't seem to work, anyways. The only thing that works is on the phone. When viewing on mobile, click the options box in the top right corner, there is a mark all forums button. I've been using that for the time being.

JeepcoMJ Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks for all of your time Alexia. I just pretty much hate this new forum. until things work right, at least. I've been getting so frustrated because I HATE using my phone to type on forums or search on forums, and to do anything here I have to hit refresh for every drop-down box or just to click on something.
