Forum Admin Greg Posted October 3, 2012 Forum Admin Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Be aware that the forum software will be undergoing a major upgrade and a new skin/theme will be applied shortly. In the next few days, we will be preforming the update and applying the new skin, so at some point the forum will be unavailable. Once the upgrade is complete and the skin is applied, things will look similar to what you see now, but with a few subtle changes (and a few new features). After the upgrade, if you have any questions or you see an error, please report the issue in the support section of the forums. Do not attempt to PM me the issue, post a new thread in the support forums and I will address the issues based on priority. Charles and Michael will also be available, if you have any questions -- but ask via the Support forum, NOT PM! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted October 3, 2012 Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 Looking forward to it, thanks for all the continuous effort guys. One quick question, not sure if its easily implementable but when I drag my cursor over a thread on some invisionfree boards you can get a preview of what the first post is, in said thread. Possible to get that going on here or nope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlight Graham Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 (edited) Thanks for the effort fellas, looking forward to seeing the changes.

WWWTT Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 The angels are singing... Thank you Greg I thought it was against the rules to re post the entire opening thread in the first comment? WWWTT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Canada Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Excellent news Greg. Even though this site isn't being maintained any longer it's nice to see some maintenance going on...hehehe. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbg Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Greg, good luck, and thanks. Will this address spamming issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boges Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 WOW! Really Spiffy. Will the chat function be up and running soon? I can't seem to update my status using the sidebar like before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boges Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Oh I found it, it goes top to bottom instead of bottom to top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Admin Greg Posted October 9, 2012 Author Forum Admin Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Greg, good luck, and thanks. Will this address spamming issues? It should! WOW! Really Spiffy.

jbg Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Greg, good luck, and thanks. Will this address spamming issues? It should! Thanks and it looks great! Possibly, if people what a chat function, I will activate it. I think it should be tried, and see how many use it. My expereince on bluecanada.ca is that it gets heavy use during such events as leadership debates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest American Woman Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I have a question - How do I get to the last post that I read in a thread? Thanks to anyone who can answer for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbg Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) It should!I just tried it in this thread, specifically thethird and fourth to last posts. Let's see what happens. http://www.mapleleaf...howtopic=20056 Edited October 9, 2012 by jbg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybercoma Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Possibly, if people what a chat function, I will activate it. If I may make a point about chat functions, they tend to take away from discussion on the boards at the forums where I've seen them. I recommend not enabling it, but others will have a different opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When a thread has new posts, it will be highlighted and have a blue dot next to the title. Click the dot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybercoma Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Greg, do you plan on removing avatars again? I kind of liked that about this forum. It's weird seeing them now. I wonder if we can post pics now too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boges Posted October 9, 2012 Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 Possibly, if people what a chat function, I will activate it. It'll be fun to immediately interact with other users when something live is going on. Also this way Shady, Bubber and Punked can stop using the Status updates as their debating ground to discuss the US Election. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
