12/22/15 forum upgrade talk

[rugerpc]

I liked the option at the end of the thread that allowed us to move from one section to the other with a drop down menu.
i.e. from "Electric Guitars" to "Amplifiers". This seems to be missing now...

There is a quick navigation menu at the top and bottom of each thread on the right. It looks like a stick figure with 1 head, no arms, 3 feet and 3 shoes...

...or 2 arms with packages and one foot and shoe. It all depends on your outlook.

Or perhaps a paraplegic on a Segway with training wheels...

aye keed, aye keed...

It doesn't look anything like that.

 

[Whitz'End]

Would it be possible to update links in older posts? They are taking us back to the old page and it just says "we've moved". I then have to search for the title of the linked thread in order to find it?

I hadn't noticed of there was anything consistent in the link naming convention that would allow a simple find and replace, or if it would be more complicated.

Either way. Really like the new setup!

Maybe James can do a global fix, but thanks for this - headed off to fix the link in my signature....

a lumpy pyramid?

 

[Jazzedout]

OK guys I get it!! Thanks for the descriptive answers!!!

 

[dsenoj]

It took me a few days to get used to it but I'm really starting to like the new format after the upgrade. Thanks for all your hard work James.

I did notice that the link to the forum on the "Inside PRS" page of the main website still has the old link.

 

[jcha008]

So far I'm liking the new layout. I apologize in advance if I spam the like button .

 

[mezzio]

Liking the layout and the extra features that come with it. Not liking the restrictions on signatures now though

 

[veinbuster]

I feel compelled to say that I really like how the new platform lets me do the things I want to do.

James, I use another forum (ih8mud.com) that uses the same soft was as here.
They have a multi quote feature that we do not have turned on here.
I know we can multi quote here by hitting reply for each member, but as you can see in my pic, the link makes it much easier.

Is it a plugin, or just a feature not turned on here yet?

[Boogie]

Nice transition, James. It's tough to pull it off without a major hitch...and somewhat thankless. Thanks! *thumbs-up emoji that's no longer available*

Quoting myself to see how it works here.

fixed! thanks

James, you are welcome.
This makes it a lot easier now.
Thanks for flipping the switch for it.

Cool.

If members want to use this option, don't forget to also use the "insert quotes" button.

 

[alantig]

The Insert Quotes button is an extra step, but a pretty decent one. Easy way to remove quotes you may have grabbed by accident.

Thanks, James!

 

[JustRob]

Hooray! Multi quotes!

I can't wait until I have something to say.

 

[rugerpc]

That hasn't stopped you before! (Where did that 'vroam' emoticon go?)

I knew someone would recognize the irony.
