Hey Everybody!!! Forum Software Upgrade in the Works

P, you can take a screenshot by pressing a button on your keyboard that says "print screen", or an abbreviation of that. Then you can paste into an image editing program, MS Word, etc.

No report button? For that spam that hits when few are online except me and...well...spammers? How am I supposed to do my civic duty without a report button?

I tried that and got an error that said ... hmm ... I can't remember exactly what it said, but it was something like file size too big or too much information of something. Haven't had a chance to go back and try again after closing extra tabs.

Eh. *shrug*

Have any of the mods/admins looked into the configuration settings link I posted for turning the signatures on for regular users?

Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but Re: disappearing buttons: I've tried IE8, IE9 and firefox (gotta remember to check and see which version of firefox.) Only IE8 zooms in and out without the disappearing button issue. (Incidentally, when I first reported the issue, it was unrelated to zooming. My buttons were invisible for more than a week, regardless of zoom in both IE9 and firefox.)

I will try Chrome and maybe another couple browsers this weekend for completeness.

No urgency, IMV, anymore. I have myself convinced that it's something to do with that frame in the upper right. I have some work-arounds that work for me (e.g. try zooming or try a different browser.)

Disclaimer: My programming experience is old and limited, but ... Depending on how the software is structured, it may not make sense to go after the cosmetic stuff (like my beloved dead horse disappearing buttons lol) until after any possible, larger, underlying (and possibly invisible to user-types) issues are addressed.

Kinda like putting up drywall before you're done with wiring.

FWIW. I have experienced a lot fewer timeout errors when posting in long threads. Has anybody else noticed an improvement?

Yep. I was just about to say something. I haven't been on a whole lot because of Uni and stuff, but it's a lot better.

I haven't had a timeout error in several days.

Agreed; they are much less frequent than before. I'm still getting one occasionally, but it's pretty rare.

However, I am still being logged out. It's perfectly predictable (first time I log in, if I click on the D-F logo; also if I go into the online auction thread/listing for some reason), but annoying.

It still doesn't play particularly nicely with Tapatalk; half the time I tap a thread to go to the latest reply and I just end up with a blank screen.

I'm really glad these issues are getting looked into.
I'm attaching a screenshot of what my drop down looks like ...womp womp....

Impressive, I have to say.

I'm getting a strange formatting issue when my window is smaller than a certain size it looks like this. Is this something fixable or only solvable by having the window big?

FWIW, techie people, usually when I do get the "server did not respond in time" error, I get logged out straight away.

Don't know if that helps...

I forgot to mention, I am using google chrome (for mac).
