So, this Sunday forum outage....

I just wanted to say I was able to do an "Insert Image" just now .. so extra "Well done"s to the admins.

... they're probably having a Bex and a lie down right about now ...

Re attachments ... for an unofficial answer ...

First you need to change to "Go Advanced" ...

I would go down the page to "Manage Attachments" ... but I see now that there is an Attachments icon right above the Message window.

OK - it is exactly the same thing. Cool. Save me scrolling down.

Bring up the Attachments 'Popup', and click on "Add Files" and then "Select Files" when the little window appears.

You can select multiple files in the same directory, unlike previously.
And if you want to add files from different directories, keep choosing "Select Files" until you are done.
Finally choose "Upload Files".

In that small window you can also switch back and forth from 'files from your Computer' to 'file from a web address (URL)'.

There is also the option of "Basic Uploader", but I'm not sure why you'd use it - and when you choose it you are then stuck on that option until you quit out and re-select "Manage Attachments" again.

If your file is already in your 'stash' on screen, then you can just drag it out again for the current message.

- - -
I mentioned before (above) about getting a particular order to the files you are attaching ... cos it doesn't work that way first off.

The first time I went through deleting ten files from the bottom box one at a time ... but I noticed today that when they've been uploaded and were all highlighted blue then deleting one file got rid of all of them.

If you then drag the files you want from 'the stash' to the lower box - in the order you want - they will stay that way.

Hope this helps,
Paul

Thank you Paul for your assistance, I'll pass on the info to a mate plus give it a go myself. Again THANK YOU. Cheers, crowie

My issue with the forum freezing when posting seems to have cleared up.

A very big thank you to Neil and his gnomes

On my brand new Samsung Galaxy, using FireFox, the forum appears in VBulletin blue livery, and I have to scroll down, down, down, down to get a login option. Then, it hangs on the "redirecting you"

So, hop onto laptop (Ubuntu & Firefox) to see if any progress has been made. The previous version of the forum used to remember me, but since the change, I always have to type usename and password, even though I click the "Save" option every single time. Anyway, blue scheme again, but changes when I log in.

On my Android Tablet (Aldi) I use the Android inbuilt browser and find it far superior to Firefox, even though I use FF on my PC and notebook.

Using FF on the tablet I found the same appearance problem with forum that you did, but having only just started using a tablet I don't what is normal.

I don't experience your login problem though in either browser.

Fred, I've never been anywhere near your devices.

Fred, I've never been anywhere near your devices.

That's probably why they are still working then

That's good to hear, but for those that use Tapatalk, please turn off the "Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD"

It is annoying!

[Groggy]

For those using TapaTalk and similar applications, we really don't need to know what device your posts are sent from, it is just advertising for the device manufacturer and software vendor.

Please disable the "Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD"

Not only annoying but it's a form of "High tech wanking".

Not sure if this is a problem or feature but I would like to know if it is me or the new system.

When viewing a thread down the main page [eg the Routing forum] - when I hit the back button the page goes back to the top [eg Announcements] - pauses for approx 2 seconds then repaginates back to where the Routing forum is visible.

Apart from this I like the new and my thanks and congrats to all who were involved.

Regards,
Bob
