Jim Alfredson Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 It's not a matter of getting the code, it's a matter of where to put it. I used to put it in the global board footer code, but that doesn't seem to work anymore, so I'm at a loss on where to insert it. I'll keep trying. Quote
J.A.W. Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I'm sure couw and a few others noticed as well: with this new version some glitches that were happening in Opera are not there anymore - cool! We can now also insert bold text and smilies and whatever as easy as in MSIE! What glitches?!?!?!?! I use OPERA and never saw any! Oh yes, there were several - at least when I used Opera. The blue background makes the yellow orange in my avatar seem less bright Probably a better remastering Quote
king ubu Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 One glitch was that the title on top of the open thread/topic would always move left and right (similar to what happens if you use AMG with Opera, but of course only moving horizontally, while with AMG there are those dropdowns, too). Another was that one could not just mark a word and hit the "bold"-button - those bold-indicators (and all other indicators) would just be put to the end of the post, no matter where you had the cursor when you hit any (same for smilies). This seems all be gone now, so that's cool! (I got used the them glitches, of course... maybe I'll miss them ) Quote
JSngry Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 The soft blue is indeed easier on the eyes, but maybe a subuded peach could be used as the background color instead of white in all but the posting areas? Keep the traditional colors, just recontextualize them? I see it, and I like it! Quote
Bright Moments Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 whats the "live chat" button all about? Quote
Joe G Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 I need to hit the hay. I will keep trying to restore the Today's Active Topics link tomorrow. I'm also trying to figure out how to implement the Live Chat function, which should be fun! whats the "live chat" button all about? We'll just have to wait and see. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 "Live" chat.......sounds a bit ominous. Like a place where the truly unruly will be sent to get hen-pecked by the mob. Guess we'll just have to wait and see how Conn5000 emerges from the first session. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 Well, I paid for the software but I can't get it to work so I'm awaiting a response from technical support. "Live Chat" may be something I only turn on once a week or once every couple of weeks. Or maybe once a month. Kind of a special "virtual" hang. Or I could just leave it on all the time. It's up to you guys (and gals). Quote

It's up to you guys (and gals). The forum is pretty much a chat already. What's the point? Quote
7/4 Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 (edited) I just upgraded the board to version 2.1.3, mainly for security reasons. What do you mean 'security reasons'? One of the new feature seems to prevent from posting two or more new posts in a row. Edited November 22, 2005 by 7/4 Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 One of the new feature seems to prevent from posting two or more new posts in a row. Good. It would have kept that 'Moderators' thread to a page. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 I'm testing the live chat right now if anyone wants to join. Quote
chris olivarez Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 One of the new feature seems to prevent from posting two or more new posts in a row. Good. It would have kept that 'Moderators' thread to a page. I'm with 7/4 on this one. I'm not sure if I like that idea. I'll have to think about it. Quote
Aggie87 Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 I'm testing the live chat right now if anyone wants to join. The live chat is COOL!!! Quote
Peter Johnson Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Damn...does it not work on a mac with Safari? Quote
tonym Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 The Live Chat does work now eh! trouble is, I'm only one in there Quote
Claude Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Now I'm the only one there. Maybe the chat has individual rooms Quote
king ubu Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Now I'm the only one there. Maybe the chat has individual rooms Same here now... or nobody wants to talk with me? (May that be because I'm only talking to myself anyway?) Quote
Ron S Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 But in the end, isn't each of us really only in his/her own individual room by him/herself? (Jim, please open a Philosophy forum so I can start an Existentialism thread.) Quote

Harold_Z Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Hey...now I'm the only one there. I think we should set a regular time for no one to show up. Quote
king ubu Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 So if I post again in a thread I just posted my second (possibly unrelated, like: quoting another post from that thread than what I quoted in my first post) just gets attached to the previous post??? Sucks! How long would I have to wait to prevent that from happening? One minute? Quote
