NEW Forum Software Issues

@panixia For PMs we will offer a solution to download them as CSV files
All the forums are still there but with the sheer volume of permissions we had it was easier to just set some general permissions here. We will restore fully once this bedding in period lapses.
That said we will be nuking subforums and merging forums for better clarity.
So far we are happy with the reception. We were expecting some frustrations but @rv1974 is not happy unless he is unhappy

@Rich-O-Brien
That's fine, I was just wondering if any important stuff in messages could be lost.
I can wait for sure..
By the way this works pretty nice on the 4,5" screen of my phone.
The old forum was almost unusable. -
@Rich-O-Brien thanks. yeah that is one of my common suggestions when people ask how to reduce spamming - make people only contribute onto a limited number of threads (prefer the ones they start) and reach a number before their "probation" is over.
-
ok, that did it - adding 3 posts enabled the signature and site link options. will there be an option to add software information into the profile like SU version etc? or should that be part of the "about me" entries?
-
@gullfo That's the plan. The software itself is pretty barebones to begin with. So we will build it out as we go.
We need a more forward facing approach to a users setup because I don't want to have to visit an About Me section every time I need to know info.
-
@Rich-O-Brien like a hovering pop-up which includes the software versions so replying to assistance requests people can readily see the posited version info
-
@gullfo I am thinking we stick it in here...
Discreet and easily accessible. Hopefully as easy to do as it is to type it.
-
This is funny.
-
@Gus-R I've now downvoted your post and if others follow suit we can make that post more controversial than the previous. Stacking controversy on controversy....

Hello,
as GĂ bo (sorry I don't have the good accent on the a on my keyboard) asked me , I post my problem here.
I have a topic here https://community.sketchucation.com/topic/150841/orgelf-s-works-second-topic/579 . Today, about 3 hours ago, I wanted to post some pictures but after some uploads I had an error message
And even if I tried to post another message , I had the same error message.I tried again few minutes ago, I could upload about 10 pictures and I had the same error message again.
Hope this will help. Bye

I know I am not 100% but this thing is driving me batt schlits.
Is there a method of modifying the appearance of this forum please?
-
@Mike-Amos What exactly are you unhappy with?
-
Not unhappy per se, just older and a bit inflexible. Ity will take a while to get to grips with.
I cannot find anything as easily as the old forum and the appearance is just weird to my eyes, no borders to break up the page for example.
Doubtless when the old grey cell sorts it out it will be fine just a bit of a shock tbh.

@orgelf Hi,
Thank you for describing the problem. Based on what you wrote, I think you might had bumped into one of the forum's limitations.
The limitation settings for images currently are:- Max image size: 10000 KiB
- Max image width X height: 5000 X 5000 pixels
- Max upload rate: 10 images per minute
Is it possible you reached one of these limits the other day?
These are in place to prevent spam.

@Mike-Amos The current vibe is a skeleton which we will improve over time.
There's many aspects that I am not a fan of either. But the previous was too old and had many security issues we needed to constantly patch. This is huge improvement over that.
Once we get a handle on the current quirks we are seeing then we can start polishing.

Does the new
design work well on cellphones/tablets? -
@majid looks like this on iPhone XR
