TheCG Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Is the Shoutbox out for the moment? The link won't load for me. Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Yes. The shout box is out-of-order until I get it re-installed. It is on my ToDo list. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 How do you change skins? I was trying out the different ones and now I don't see a way to change it. I'm using a skin with a grey background and Mrs Survival in red. It doesn't seem to be fully working either because along the left side some buttons are question marks. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Also, three boards have Unapproved listed on the same line as the name of the forum....Are You Really Ready, In The Kitchen and Pinching Pennies. Is anyone else seeing that? Quote Link to comment
mommato3boys Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Not sure if it working or not just can't find it...."back to top" button. There used to be one at the bottom of the page and It is gone now. Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 I'm not finding a way to insert images of our own from our hard drives etc...??? Quote Link to comment

New skins are on my "ToDo" list. In the process of prioritizing everything that needs attention. Quote Link to comment

Use the "More Reply Options" next to the "Post" button. It brings up a reply box similar to the one we had before the upgrade. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Thanks Ann! Does it mean there are unapproved posts on these forums? Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted November 17, 2012 Author Share Posted November 17, 2012 Thanks Ann! Does it mean there are unapproved posts on these forums? Yes Maam. I looked at a couple and could not figure out why they were unapproved. Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted November 17, 2012 Author Share Posted November 17, 2012 Sorry I took so long to reply, MIL wanted to go shopping and when I returned DH was so sick he had to go to the Dr. Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Ann, take care of your family first! We all know you have your hands and mind full right now. We are just glad to be in contact with each other again. All of the little glitches will get ironed out in due time. Quote Link to comment

Amishway Homesteaders Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 OK - so I (we) are getting things back up and thanks for that , but..........................................

I hate changes ! and smilies somtime are there but other times can't load them up? Sorry but this old guy needs help? Hi AH, Not a problem, this old girl here is doing her best to make things work and create the earthy brown skin. What I have found with the smiles; They all work on any browser on a Mac. However, PC's are a different story. For some reason - still researching - Firefox is not letting the pop-up window of smiles to post all of the time. Internet Explorer 8 works. I am continuing to research it, but it is not at the top of my priority list, at the moment. The Shout Box we had, does not work with the new security upgrades. (I broke the board, momentarily, when I tried to bring it back. Not good. LOL) And, yes, I do not like changes either, but, if those changes keep us safe, then, I will do my best to deal with them.

Amishway Homesteaders Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 yup ............................ sometimes we have to live with change. Just will take time for me as I loved the old one. At least the posts are there and no name changes ? LOL Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I noticed there are no envelope icons to click on under our avatar thingy to send a PM. I clicked on my own 'avatar' and there is no contact info in my profile. I'm really not that snooty...so much. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I like the new elegia skin. It's not so hard on the eyes. Smilies on an Android tablet show one row of smilies on the bottom of the comment box. Then you have to click an arrow on the right side to slide the next rows to the left. Another thing I've noticed is the comment box continues to keep going off the screen to the right...you don't see what you're typing until you slide the screenfrom side to side. Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 Jeepers, hold/hover your mouse over someone's name and an information box will appear with an option to PM that person. Please be patient with me folks. The "MrsSurvival" brown skin/theme has to be created from scratch. The other theme/skin is for anyone who wants something different in the mean time.

coastygirl Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 You are doing a fabulous job Annarchy ! I got bounced off of MS a week ago. My computer id'd a virus and would not let me access it. Now---it's good. I was going thru withdrawals ! Quote Link to comment
