Jack Roberts Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Whoa!?!?! Now that's different. Can we at least paint her to the old colors now? Thanks Stynky for all your hard work.

Silkie McDonough Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Hey look at that! New coat of paint, few picture hanging on the walls, old logo on the header. Somebody's doing some remodeling. Hmmm, "There are 10001 new entries" Don't think I will ever catch up! lol ...okay ....where to start? Edited July 8, 2009 by Silkie McDonough
theM.A.dDogge Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 oooooohhhhhh.....aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh.......shiney
Honour Bright Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Oh, I LOVE what you have done with the place! How about a house forum-warming? And thanks for adding the gazebo..... Taking on the world....one pair of boots at a time! A little bit of this...a little bit of that...a lot of dreams....
Stynky Tudor Posted July 8, 2009 Author Posted July 8, 2009 Haha - Now just you wait until I (re)organize and break everything. But for now it looks like the Pub has survived the software upgrade. Aside from some text and font attributes that were applied in previous messages getting scrabbled, it doesn't look like too much got broken. For the most part it should just look different, some features should be fixed and made obvious that they're there now. . . In any case, those of you who find bugs and want to help squish 'em, please post the what, when and where of it here. Everyone, thank you for your support and patience.
Raphael Misson Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) In any case, those of you who find bugs and want to help squish 'em, please post the what, when and where of it here. The icons are missing. The software has done something strange to the old quote commands so that old posts with quotes are sort of hard to read. The gallery thing at the top of the forum is sort of annoying. (Ok, that's an opinion, not a bug.)

The gallery thing at the top of the forum is sort of annoying. (Ok, that's an opinion, not a bug.) RANKING: Yep it looks like our ranking system got completely wiped - that should be easy enough to fix. QUOTES: It looks like the old quotes got mangled along with previously applied font attributes. As far as I can tell the information is there. . . GALLERY: Actually I just wanted to have a single random or latest gallery image show up on a side panel, but I kind of like the string of images across the top. I'll try it out a couple or three different ways over the next bunch of months and see what kind of feedback we get or don't get.
Ransom Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Testing, testing...1...2...3 Wowzer, the Pub sure looks different. Good mostly, but I, too, miss the "Most recent posts" option, which I used all the time. Haven't decided yet on the gallery pics at the top of the page, but tend to agree with Mission. They are a bit distracting, but maybe that's just because I'm not used to seeing them there. Okay, Stynky, now get to the more important stuff....like new smilies! LOL Pyrate the ones Syren has over at the Tavern. They are great. ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...

Rumba Rue Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Whoa, where am I? Sure ain't the drugs.......uh wow, my eyes have seen a new layout, and I thankfully don't have to go through the swamp to try and log-in. BUT I WANT MY IMMORTALITY!!!!!
Raphael Misson Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Mission's gonna miss that skull icon... Too true. Life here would become colorless, worthless, hopeless, helpless and hapless without it. But it has been restored.

Silkie McDonough Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Now that it has been upgraded EVERY post is listed as a new post. I am one of the lazy ones who uses the "View new content" link. What I have not been able to do is find the "mark everything as read" link. Can someone help?
Honour Bright Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 *Honour comes in with a dozen pizzas, a case of beer and a can of Raid* This is for the bugs. The pizza and beer is for us. I love the look here, Stynky. Now hand me a paintbrush, please! Taking on the world....one pair of boots at a time! A little bit of this...a little bit of that...a lot of dreams....
Stynky Tudor Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 Now that it has been upgraded EVERY post is listed as a new post. I am one of the lazy ones who uses the "View new content" link. What I have not been able to do is find the "mark everything as read" link. Can someone help? There isn't a global 'Mark as Read' feature that can be done from the main index, at least not one I've been able to find yet. But up in the title bar, top right of each forum there is a '(Mark this forum as read)' selectable text link option thingy you can click on, unfortunately you have to go into each and every forum to execute that function. Originally I was going to right it off as just an annoying issue, but you're not the only one who has complained or commented - I'm not making any promises, but I'll add it to my list and see what can be done.
Red-Handed Jill Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 There is one. Look at the very bottom of the page, to the left, below everything else. It's in small, grey lettering: "Mark Board as Read".
blackjohn Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Aaaah ...look at the bottom of the page! Just please don't delete my cookies!!! My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Silkie McDonough Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 I'm not going near your cookies. LOL Okay, I stumbled upon a link of helpful hints on using the site ...now I can't find it. Could someone help me find the helpful hints again?
Silkie McDonough Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 Found it! Go to new content. The tab is to the left reads "Help". It is very helpful.
Stynky Tudor Posted July 9, 2009 Author Posted July 9, 2009 There is one. Look at the very bottom of the page, to the left, below everything else. It's in small, grey lettering: "Mark Board as Read". Alright, way to go Jill! Mark Board as Read - Just sitting there at the bottom of the page, that's a sweet find. Thanks!
