I still don't like the way it loads (Shockwave). I can't access my forum from PCs that block this or don't have it by choice. PLEASE....Go back to the old way of loading the forums.

Hi Bravenet Team.
Can you tell me why, (I have pro hosting) when I added a guest book to my website, embeded on its own page, the url looks something like:

http://mywebsite name/guestbook

And yet when I embed the new forum on its own page the url looks like:

http://www.mywebsitename/forum#mybreavnetaccountnumber.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for fixing the Avatar Problem...it was Greatly appreciate......

I would like to know if there is any way to change the Edit buttom back to the Original 10mins...I personally think 60 mins to Edit a post is way too much Time.... I was wondering if there anyway the amount of time to edit post can be left at Moderator discretion?? thank you

Yo Tim my man. What's the max size that an avatar will accept. I know it will resize it but what is the max. Another thing, even though it resizes a avatar there still remains lots of empty space underneath the avatar.

As you can see my Homer Simpson avatar has empty space underneath it. Is that being worked on as well.

Tim,

Thank you for keeping up with the replies. We are dealing with the changes.

Good things:

- I LIKE the longer edit time - I wish it was even longer because sometimes I forget things I wanted to say and it's easier than cluttering with a new post. I'm not sure why a person wouldn't like that.

- The bb code menu is pretty slick. That might help those who never knew html very well. But thanks for html's return. (Sort of return.)

- Thanks for the time AND date on posts!

- The link to user's posts is useful by clicking on user's name.


Bad things:

- Html blockquote isn't working. I do not like bb quoting because it italicizes the text and those silly blue icons for numbers show up. Does anyone use those bulbous blue number icons? Consider getting rid of them.

- When I went to post I forgot to write something in the subject line, hit my back button and the post was wiped out. That didn't use to happen. Folks, don't forget your subject line!

- People still shut out because of flash player. Still annoying loading.

- Placing an image from my Photo Center in a post is being constricted (cutting off sides) no matter how I adjust pixels of board. Didn't happen before. It is not always easy to resize without ruining the clarity of the photo. I don't think board pixel size is the issue, but the way you've blocked the post body. ?


Neutral:

- Fonts are sharper with FireFox rather than Internet Explorer, if anyone cares.

- I've never understood why when you click on a smiley icon at the end of a sentence it throws it down to the very bottom of the post.

- I don't understand why when you reply in a thread that after you post it throws you into the first post of that thread rather than the index/whole board.

Thanks & Happy Easter.

It's still painfully slow to load and I've had some dial up users who have just given up trying to use it.

Is the speed going to increase or is this it at the maximum it can be?

If the latter then I might have to look elsewhere depending on how many users are affected.

People are still unable to access on certain work computers as well due to the flash/java issues.

Quick update:

We added in owner delete functionality on the messages view of both threaded and board styles (while logged in).

For those having problems with the message icon not appearing on posts after making changes that has been fixed as well.

We are still working around the clock to bring you new features and bug fixes.

Thanks for your continued patience and understanding!

Tim

Would be great if one could set the forum size in % instead of pixels, like before. It looks kinda ridiculous for surfers with a high screen resolution since one has to consider those with a low screen resolution when you decided the setting (max 800).

Can someone please tell me why i got 10 pages of post....when my thread is set to 250 a page and i only have 236 Post???? please help me...

Okay, you can now configure whether or not the Forum will display the post author below each topic on the board style main page. This setting is under General Settings --> Display.

Tim

My forum's posts are down about 50% because of the new changes.

1) Most of the complaints center around shockwave or flash or whatever. The issue there is the increased time it takes to load. Can anything be done about that?

2) The other issue is the visted links, people want to be able to keep track of posts they've already read on threads views. Can that be fixed, so it was like before?

Smaller issues:
Then the posted pics are truncated, can that be fixed?

I also like user registration so vandals can be locked out.

Sorry, but this message was emailed to me because the person was unable to do it themselves:

I am unable to open a support ticket. The spam graphic appears as a broken image so I cannot submit my question. My counters suddenly stopped working. I made new ones and they appear broken. I have tried 5 different browsers: Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Maxthon. Do you know why suddenly the spam graphic on the support ticket and my counters don't show up? Thanks in advance. Feel free to email me.
