At this point it might be better not to sleep as you might not wakeup. Looks great, team AgileBits! <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_beer.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(beer)' /> <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/emoticon-0154-pizza.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(pizza)' />

Thanks, we’re happy with the new update to the forum package too. The quick reply textbox is nice too.

Where is now the subscribe/unsubscribe to a topic, or tread ??



I don't see it !!



Thanks

NovaScotian

I think it's the "Follow this topic" button on the top right

Ben

Yep, thanks NovaScotian. That's the one.

Gilles9

Thanks, now I see it

But where are all my subscribed threads and fora? <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_thinking.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(think)' /> I mean, the list on the general forum page which used to be in the upper right hand corner.



(Grumbles.....) Change is so difficult.









Oh, and I can no longer see my [size=4][b]avatar[/b][/size]: just getting the question mark in the blue box....is it visible to others?



I'm running the latest version of Safari, 1P but I still have Snow Leopard.

[b][color=#006400]More info on this avatar problem[/color][/b]: I went to my profile page and . . . I can see it there, but it's not visible to me on a thread. So I really need to know if others can see it.



By the way, I'm also seeing the question mark in the blue boxes for many other members, of whom I was able to view their avatars previously. So I'm trying to figure out if this is my Safari problem or not.

Hey there, Macrina! I am sorry to say that I cannot see your avatar here either, although it is visible on your profile. Mine was affected by the transition, too (mostly really blurry), but re-setting it seems to have corrected that. In my case, I am using Gravatar and re-selecting it under Profile Settings > Photo and then saving fixed it. I think IP.Board must use cached images which were affected by the transition, which would explain why simply reselecting it (and therefore refreshing the cache) resolves it.



Also, if you click on your name in the top right and select "Content I Follow" I think it will take you where you want to go. I am having trouble adjusting, too. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

Yeah, it looks like everyone will need to reset their avatar. Mine was a blurry mess, others are broken links. It should be just fine after you reset it, though.

Macrina

Thanks, Brenty and Khad for your responses!



OK, I found the [u]Content I Follow[/u] link under my user name. Isn't it interesting how many of us can't see new things until specifically pointed in that direction? <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_thinking.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(think)' />



And I'll go figure out how to reset the avatar.



On another forum change issue, it seems I'm no longer getting emails sent, telling me of new comments, even though I subscribed to the thread. Hmmm.





ETA: Yay, the avatar is back! <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_flower.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='(f)' />

khad

No problem at all, Macrina! I'm glad we could help. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

I suffer severely from "new version blindness" myself. I only know how to use this stuff because my livelihood depends on it. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';-)' />

I will poke around and see if something was broken in the upgrade somehow. Thanks for letting me know!
