Forum Upgrade

Recommended Posts

I've upgraded the forum software to the latest version of IPB. I guess there's some new features etc. in here somewhere - not sure what they are.

 

Also looks like I need to do a bit of tinkering with page headers and footers etc.

Fantastic, a spell checker. That should keep the kids educated.

Very good looking upgrade, your time and effort are appreciated, by the west cumbrian contingent anyway.

I love it, not merely for the aesthetic improvement! Last night I was able to get into Deathlist chat for the first time since January, albeit in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. Anyhow, I guess that's good news for me and bad for most others. :rip:

If you were a registered user then you wouldn't have to punch in a code.

 

I'm guessing you didn't notice the spell checker either. Might have alerted you to the space bar (you know the really long key at the bottom of the keyboard).

That would make sense.

it's the same as it was before.

the one thing that confuses me is why the "quote" button is still there even though it doesn't work.

I did it a different way before.

There was an option at the bottom of the page.

well there was a way to reply to the thread in just doing a new post, but if you wanted to automatically quote the previous person or an earlier one you'd select "quote" at the bottom of their post and your new post would include all that.

Now doesn't do anything apart from take you to the top of the page

Well, if that's the case - my mind's made up - if it stops Iain from posting, this forum upgrade is the best thing ever to happen to the Deathlist. :rip:
