Post Re: Small FAQ about new board
Is there anyway to get back that huge alert at the top of the screen when you have a new PM?

You can set it to pop up a window when you get a new pm. That's even better than a large alert.

I'm on subsilver. I just checked and I already had it set to notify me of PMs and have a separate window alert. I didn't get any emails that I received a PM like I used to and no separate window.

You're not getting a pop up window when you get a new PM? Do you have a popup blocking program running?

Are you saying I would have to turn off my pop up blocker in order to get a PM notification?

Yes, only turn it off for this site if you can set it that way. I had to do that since it opened up a small Firefox window with the notification.

Ok, I'll try this and see if it works. But, still, what happened to the email notification?

I can work on getting the borders thinner, but the issue with stretching the tables - that's not the tool, that's how tables are set up on the new boards. Plus, your table is pretty wide to begin with...


Yeah, the big one is wide, but for some reason, the page is making the other tables just as wide, and that's the problem.

As search is still a bit...not working, I'd really recommend usage of Bookmark Topic link now. You can easily manage bookmarks in your User Control Panel.

Search works fine, just only for topics and posts made since the switch.

That doesn't work. You need to also add www for some reason.

Fixed now. There's [ youtube ] for www links, and [ youtube2 ] for www-less links. All on Post page, which you WOULDN'T SEE with Quick Reply. So, there.

How is the e-mail coming along? I'm not in a rush to have it back because I can mostly keep track of all the threads I've posted in, but it would be nice to have back eventually.

It's a software problem, so far no fix that I know of.

Links still aren't opening in a new window. Is that going to be fixed?

It seems to work intermittently. I don't get it. But try clicking the MSNBC link in the naked Vanessa thread. That was one that didn't work for me.
