    I notice since the forum has been reset up ater the recent contretemps the display timings of a thread insertion now gives the date and local time inserted.
    Is there a setting to reverting to my previous setting of 10 minutes ago or 3 days ago etc. etc.?

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Once upon a time this is how it was, it changed and then changed back.

    I actually prefer it this way but I will put up a poll to see what the majority think.

    I guess it can't be a preferences setting so you can choose which way it is displayed? I guess not seeing as it is being debated

    If this is the one you mean, it is for a "Multi Quote". you can put multiple quotes from different posts into one post of your own.

    I too like the multi-quote function, but sod's law says that it'll be months before I get a chance to use it

    For some reason, :confused: I'm not automatically 'Logged In' any more, when I open the forum after previously having 'Logging Off'. :eek:

    I have to re-enter my 'ID and Password' and tic the 'Remember Me' box, but after a period of time, when I check for any 'New Posts', I've been mysteriously 'Logged Off" somehow.:eek::eek:

    This was a never a problem, before the recent "Crash & Up-grade".

    Am I able to remedy this or do I just grin and bear?

    Help!
    Brenton

    PS: I was just automatically "Logged Out' again, while writing this post.
