view active threads?

Brandy:

I could just be dense, but is there any way to do the equivalent of "viewing active threads" in the old system? I did find an option to view new posts. Do I have to go in category by category to find what was posted earlier in the day, or is there another way?

Thanks!

So far, the only way I've been able to view new posts is to click on "New Posts" at the top of the screen...that does give you all the new posts made to the forum, rather than sorting them by forum...the downfall is, you have to click that every time you want to see new posts...you can no longer click "Refresh" in your browser to get new posts after clicking it once...bummer that

Keep in mind, however, that all of my experience with vB3 has been with a different format/style - so I am learning too.

Question ack

It's just okay. Not nice on the eyes, at ALL. Like others said, the colors are pretty, but very unfriendly to the user. I probably won't spend as much time on here in the long run, if the colors are not altered. It tires my eyes tremendously, already. Yikes!

Lori,

I responded to your email...chat is currently down, with an ETA of 24 hours. When chat comes back up, you can access it by clicking on "Chat" to the left under the "Community Areas" section.

Can't see photos

All the photos in the threads I've viewed show up as jpeg attachments that you have to open individually. Is there a way to display them?

I love it! No more pop-ups everytime you change a page and this way you have access to much more info in addition to the forum threads!

ok the size changed a little, but you still cannot read an entire post left to right without scrolling over.

Brandy - My biggest pet peeve so far (other than the hard to see colors) is the fact that the search function doesnt refresh. I am not seeing new posts as they come up on my first page of searching. As I tend to sit in here as I am doing other work - I love the fact that when reading all new posts it would automatically update every time I read a post.

PLEASE change that If at all possible!

Jen,

One of my biggest issues too...I am keeping a list! Keep em coming folks!

McKenna, are you having to scroll on EVERY post...or just the ones with pictures attacked to them?

Do you have to scroll to this one?

It might be your resolution setting...

I gotta go for about an hour...I was hoping Sarah would be here by the time I had to leave! Grrr
