Yeah, thanks 

I am still getting used to how some of the features of the new software work, so suspect that was a case of operator error, or maybe Gav was playing with the same functionality.

 

Cheers

I really love the mobile site, far far better than the previous version!

[PB260Z]

So far I have only used the new software on my iPad (which is what I use 95% of the time) and that experience has been positive.

will try PC later today.

Let us (Gav or Myself) know if you encounter anything strange.

[Andrew_L26]

Will do!

Then the problem must have been between the keyboard and chair.

Thanks Gav for your work and dedication to this forum and website the information here for Australian Z enthusiast is second to non. the new site seems to work really well, one thing which you might want to look at down the track, the small avatar (sorry i don't know the correct terminology)  which use to show on my bookmarks bar now just shows a clear folder,

Might be time for a few people to make a donation to make sure this website keeps on going.

 From time to time I “Bang the Drum” for to get a few donations.

About time I dropped a few dollars in the can.

For those like myself, who don't always have a lot of spare cash, but want to make donations. I highly recommend setting up a regular payment process. 

Even I don't miss a few dollars a month. I'd only waste it on a Coffee anyway

Thanks Gav

I believe that may be the favorite icon. I will see what I can do to restore it.

Thanks for the donations everyone and compliments. I'm glad you're enjoying the new changes.

My favorite change is being able to reference other membere using the at symbol. @

Example.

@PB260Z

[PB260Z]

I missed the fact you can reference people with @ symbol, very neat feature.

@gav240z is there a way just showing the topic of 'new content' not all the posts?

[gav240z]

Look under Activity -> My Activity Streams.

It looks like you may be able to create your own "stream" criteria.

Yeah the old 1 was very stripped down. The new version is more like the Desktop and image upload now works which is a huge bonus as you can upload images directly from your phone.

There was a way to do it before but it wasn't intuitive.

Yes, it was a bit annoying trying to upload photos from my phone, changing to desktop mode was somewhat annoying, I would wait until I was at my laptop again. This is great! 

big ++++ on the post reaction & tagging users, and overall really good upgrade  

[gav240z]

Signatures are back! Although it is a bit cleaner without them!

[PB260Z]

Well done, agree cleaner without.

Is there a way to reduce line spacing in the signatures and thus compact them up a little ?

But if people don't like it, they can hide others signatures, that's cool as I hate it when you go to some forums, and people have painfully large signatures, and it is hard to see the actual content

I fixed mine, the spaces might be due to the upgrade and the way the database fields were converted.

Go to the top right hand corner of your profile pic and click on the down arrow to reveal your profile menu. Click on settings -> Account settings -> On the overview page click on signature.

Modify the signature using the "source" button and you'll see HTML tags. I put mine into a simple unordered list.

https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_lists.asp

Which appears to have trimmed all the whitespace and given my signature a cleaner look.

 

[PB260Z]

Cool, will get onto that later today.
