Can you add the mouseover preview feature? This shows several lines of the text without have to click on the thread. Easy way to tell if it's a thread you're interested in - was really handy with the old forum.
Pretty sure it's just a checkbox in UBB, but I'm not positive.

Thanks! </div></div>

We had it here on the new version briefly, but I thought it was getting too busy, 'cause some of the previewed posts had pictures...but if you guys like it, I can turn it back on, as I'm kind of indifferent.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: x Baldwin Motion</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Rob, will the photo gallery with all of our uploaded pictures return? or must everything now be the smaller sized attachments and outside hosts? Thanks and keep up the good work!!

</div></div>

The new software actually has an integrated gallery feature, but it of course arrives empty...lol! We *finally* got our software license back in our name just this past week after an issue with the Photo Gallery software designers, so we can download/apply the patch, and at least get the old gallery working again (it's still there and viewable!)...but we're trying to come up with a way to import the old pictures/info to the new software, since it's integrated and will keep recieving updates along with the forum software.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: budnate</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Rob, when I go to the classifieds on new posts there is no indication on what is new not opened and old stuff......do I have something turned off??

Thnx B.
</div></div>

Yeah, it's because the classifieds forum doesn't allow replies, so the software calls the &quot;Locked&quot; icon...not sure we have any options there, but I might be able to come up with a workaround (I have an idea, if I can find the time!).

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: PeteLeathersac</div><div class="ubbcode-body">As mentioned previously, clicking on Google search results now take you to main pages instead of the threads themselves but I'm now noticing old threads w/ links to previous threads doing the same thing?.

Do the PM holding tanks keep 200 messages in total regardless of the In/Out ratio...didn't the previous setup have 100/In and 100/Out totals?.

Thanks for all the hard work fellas!.

No idea on the Google thing, I'll try and take a look, but it's more than likely something on their end...as for the PMs, I have no idea, but I'll do some digging.

Rob...
Not the Google thing but on the internal link problem...try this as an example..
Click here...
https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/ubbthrea...0480#Post420480
...then go down the thread to where I posted the link to an old thread here and click on it..
It used to go to the thread but see where it takes you now...same place the Google results do now too?.

On the PM thing, don't bother digging...if it's changed, it's for the better and a good thing!.

Put me down as in favor of the &quot;mouse over&quot; preview that Kurt was referring to.

I'd thought it was on a few days ago, but I wasn't sure.
Can you turn it back on and we'll see if people have a problem with the pics preview? Maybe it's possible not to preview the pics, only text??

Also, I think the titles of unread threads were bolded. Now just the number show up on how many new posts there are. Anyway to get the bolding back?

Thanks!! I know you're busy with all these details....

Rob, I was using the dark version of the stylesheet option and just went to change my preference to be notified by email on pm's and now all I have is the lighter version and it appears no option to change to the dark version. I thought that was easier on the eyes and much easier to see the unread post folder. Any way to go back to the darker version?

I've been patient and kinda held back to see how it was going to work out. I am very happy with the sight now. You've done a very good job.

I've seen multi-million dollar comapnies roll out product change which have been uglier than than this. Thanks for the hard work, and if you're still gonna be at it, maybe I'll can send you some PA brews your way!

Someone, in the other board changes thread mentioned the bold lettering on new unread posts...I didn't do that, but unread threads now have shading.

Thanks! The shading really helps.
If you get a chance, the mouseover preview would be great. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
