New Forum Thread

-- INDEX --

I've used other forums with this software and it really is quite nice once the bugs get worked out. However, it has always bothered me that there is no way to return to the previous level by clicking a link on the bottom of the page. This was one of the things I really liked about TBN.

Example -- After scrolling down to the bottom of the thread and reading the last post, you used to be able to click "Return to Index" (or something similar) to return to the next level up (list of threads).

Other than that, looks like you guys are spending some huge time here cleaning things up a bit. I must say, I admire your hard work. It's not an easy job to please everyone!

Why do I see the HTML Mark Up instead of the text?

Like this for example
"</font><font color="blue" class="small">("

Because the forums are set to now allow HTML, and all the old markup came in as HTML. So we have to run a process to filter/change it all.

back ground color

I know it varies with individual monitors and how they are set, but I think it would be easier to read if the pink (?) background were a little darker.

The HTML code is currently turned OFF See the option box in the lower left corner of the screen?

There are options that the administrators can turn on that will allow us users to alter the appearance. Currently those options seem to be turned off. But I do agree with you, the screens are pretty low contrast right now.

I think that feature is still there - it's called Forum Jump and it's at the bottom right of the page.

Existing signatures (those existing pre-update) are not being displayed. They are being displayed for new posts, however.

Could you post a screen shot of what you see?
