zlim Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) Quote Notifications --> untick everything you don't want in there Except there are 3 things, with toggles below notifications, as I showed way back on page 1 that the administration will not allow me to toggle off. One of these is Notifications for "someone gives reputation to something I posted". THANK_YOU! I just had another look and I now have the ability to toggle off the things that annoyed me. Yeah!!! I did notice you changing the spacing. Thank you! I hate it when I press enter and I get a blank line rather than just a start of a new paragraph. As far as leaderboard, I'm neutral. On or off, it doesn't matter. Edited September 25, 2019 by zlim new thought Quote

V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Oh, you may also have noticed that I managed to find the settings to remove the profile info clutter that was being displayed in every member's posts on the left sidebar (by your avatar and username). Took care of that. Makes things looks so much cleaner and less cluttered, I think. :) 1 Quote

V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 7 hours ago, Corrine said: Yes, please. Heh! I didn't turn it off completely, Corrine, but I tweaked it so that it's pretty much that way it was on the old board... just top posters, top reputation listings. It's OFF now, Corrine. Discussion about this waiting for you on my log thread in the Admin area. :) By the way, for all you folks still dealing with the Notifications issues. I made some changes that allow you to more finely tune your settings in Accounts --> Notifications. You can now get just regular notifications or notifications via email also. Go to those settings and turn on/off whatever you'd like to make your experience here better for you. 1 Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 For all of you folks having issues with setting your Notification Preferences, please see this posting where I replied to Acadia regarding his issues with same: 1 Quote
zlim Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Thanks for all the tweaking you are doing, Eric. It is much appreciated. 2 Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Well, like I told Josh earlier... most of the stuff you guys are having issues with are the same things that are driving me nuts. MUST FIX! 1 Quote
securitybreach Posted September 25, 2019 Author Posted September 25, 2019 Wasn't there a limitation with the old forum as well? I had never had luck so just always used an image hosting site and just posted the thumbnail. Quote

I had never had luck so just always used an image hosting site and just posted the thumbnail. Limitation regarding what? Oh, duh... images. Yeah, there's a size limitation on what's displayed for offsite images. I forget what it is right now. I'll check... Looks like max image size to display is 1000 X 750. This is offsite display. There's also a limit to uploaded image sizes. It's very small due to trying to save server space. I don't usually upload images because I don't want to pollute my host's (Scot) server. I usually post using Imgur offsite links. Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 OK, been busy... I made some further color tweaks to the board. Like? Don't Like? Thoughts? I also added a new editor skin called MoonoColor. It allowed for some more tools on the editing toolbar that you see when you post. Hope you like it. Don't Like it? Let me know. Anyway, as always... feedback needed. Speak your piece. :) Quote

Should I just make the whole board monochrome. You need to tell me specifically what's too colorful... the headers? the menus? the fonts? the background? Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 I softened the background and menu bar up a bit. Better? Quote

securitybreach Posted September 27, 2019 Author Posted September 27, 2019 Not crazy about the teal colored bar: Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Darn. :( And I really thought it looked pretty. I'll see if I can find a more mellow color for you vanilla ice cream folks. Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Also, no one has mentioned the spiffy new editor that I d-loaded and installed. It's a heck of a lot nicer and more useful than the vanilla version that was here originally... 2 Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Josh, I fixed the permissions in Groups to allow users to see who "Likes" their content. YAY! Quote
zlim Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 (edited) So why doesn't my reply window look like yours? oops, I was going to ask for a preview button but I see the far right icon is just that. Now all I have to do is try and remember that. <sigh> Edited September 27, 2019 by zlim 1 Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Dump cookies, restart your browser, maybe? Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Umm... the new toolbar is only on the full-sized editor. If you're using Fast Reply or a device (phone, tablet, etc.), you will only see the standard toolbar in the editor. Quote
V.T. Eric Layton Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 Oh, and Josh... I softened that teal a bit for you. :) 1 Quote
