Brandon Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Before I would click the link on the top right where it would have a list of whatever threads had new posts since my last visit. Made it easier to see all the threads that were updated rather then going into each one manually and sifting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taynted_Fayth Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 I liked how when I first load a page it looked like it was materializing with pixels, kinda like using the mirror in legend of zelda a link to the past for snes, id even make the weird sound effect.. well first couple times I logged in today.

Upper right, hover over Activity. You can view preset filters including Unread Content or customize your own filters. There is also an Unread Content link right under the header at the top of each page. On mobile, click the menu at the very top.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll ensure the ads are clicked from my end. Might even buy something from them. Thanks again! Just to add to this, we have been reinvesting basically everything into the site, the fans and the members here. We value you guys and what you've contributed to make this site what it is .. this is, more or less, a break even proposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Dee Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Interesting..I seem to have lost my "signature" feature, and I cannot find it in profile. Also, when making a regular post, I now see that preview has been added, but it doesn't include any images that have been included. Will we have to post it, then edit, to move the images where we want them if the post requires it? ****OK, I just tried it, (image placement) and it was easy enough...

Signatures are enabled but the edit doesn't show up for me either. Will have to look further into it. On the plus side, Twitter is now up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Pop Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thanks for all the hard work, Rich - site keeps getting better! Has anyone else noticed they're required to use login credentials every time now? I've opened up MBB 3 or 4 times at work today (that busy here) and have had to login each time, despite checking "remember me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted December 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Still learning new features of the site. Here is a tip if you don't use the activity feeds to find new content. Clicking on the blue circle to the left of threads with unread content will take you right to your first unread post.

This is a weird one. Click on your name in the top right, then Account Settings. Now there is something really goofy going on with the formatting here where most of the options are white text on a white background. If you click <CTRL>-A to select all text on screen (or select everything on the screen with your mouse), you will see a number of things you can edit that are currently "invisible". One of those is Signature. Once you see the text highlighted, you can click it to edit it. Other things you can edit here (that are "invisible" as well) are your email address, password, display name, as well as Facebook and Twitter. Have to use this work around until I figure out why the formatting is setting the text to white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use an iPad Air and everything is different without a keyboard, BUT, I just touched the areas to the right of overview and the different headings popped up, including signature. The odd thing is..I did have signature when I first looked at the site, but...in exploring I came across (hide) in relation to signature, and I clicked on it...and it disappeared (like my homework used to)..with no path to return. So, thanks for the insight into the problem, but now I'm leery ? click on anything and I'm going to careful of more trapdoors...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem as I just signed on with my userid/password, but something to add to the list. If you need a tester, PM me. Twitter sign on has been reconfigured. I've disabled Facebook for now. It seems neither of the Twitter or Facebook authentications recognized the website after the upgrade so I had to re-register the website through their developer portals. Facebook has changed drastically to the point where I would apparently now need to create step by step instructions and screenshots for their staff on how Facebook would be used through the website. (and maybe so they can test it?) . Twitter was relatively easy with a few configurations back and forth ... not sure when I'm going to get to Facebook unless there is a large demand for it.
