The Quote button has been moved (I think the new position is so much better for just reading through a topic) and the mobile version is finally working properly! Great work, all you admins ! +1 on this, the new Quote button position is really better (at least for me), and getting the menu immediately on mobile without scrolling across feels good. Great job once again!
makoy Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 The report post has also returned and replaced the obscure flag icon.
Rotundus Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) Good work on the upgrade folks... It looks like nearly everything is back to normal. I did have something happen that maybe you should know about. When I checked my email tonight I had an email that claimed to be generated by EB that had a completely unintelligible subject line, (SPAM is suspected). Of course I did not open it. For me simply deleting it will take care care of it on my end, but I thought you would like to know that it seems as though someone has possibly gained unauthorized access to your member list. Good luck in tracking this down Edited October 12, 2016 by Rotundus

Do you mean a screenshot of the contents, or just of the listing in my inbox. It is my policy NOT to open any email I suspect of being SPAM, so I cannot verify its contents. I still have it if you would like me to forward it to you. Just give me an address to send it to, and I will.

JJ2 Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 What happened to the red "Poll" that used to be next to topics that had polls? Was it intentional to get rid of or a mistake?

Probably none of the above. I'd say accidental. We lost it during the upgrade. Thanks for the heads up.

I manually set your post count to 102 (the number of posts I could find for you) and your rank to Citizen accordingly. Let's see what happens when you try to post again. THANK YOU! I've posted maybe 5-10 times and it's still been zero, but my first post here changed it to 1. Wasn't a big deal, but just wanted to make sure it wasn't an issue affecting more people. Thanks again!
Onesho Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 Question here, Do I need to use another website uploading images or can I just upload them here to Eurobricks? Thanks J

Jim Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 Hi Onesho, If you use Flickr or Bricksafe you can upload a hires version and embed a smaller one. The max width is 1024 pixels for EB.

Bricksafe is very easy to use, but Flickr is awesome too. You can simply create a Yahoo account. I have done that too and there's no real downside, besides having an extra login.

Tamas Juhasz Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 I have many minor issues with the new forum, is there any guide, index, or something, where you can see, what has changed, and how to use the forum? The upgrade is still running, or is it finished? I see everywhere, in the new forum engine, mobile version was more important, and using the forum with desktop PC or Laptop became less comfortable, it seems to be now for me. Maybe if I could see, where can I find the functions, etc., I would feel the comfort of the old forum again. Currently, even for some basic functions I had to google and search for here and other topics, for half an hour sometimes. Two of my biggest problems: 1. Private messages. Where can I find the sent messages? Or outbox/unread? 2. Space between lines. Is there any way to change? If I type an enter, a big space appears between two lines. (sorry, if this question was before, but without index it's very hard to find solutions for a problem) Anyway, I'm really thankful all of the moderators, staff, for doing this in their freetime, I understand, we are forced to do the upgrade, I'm just can't use the forum as well, and comfortable, as the old one.

(sorry, if this question was before, but without index it's very hard to find solutions for a problem) Let me answer this right away. Enter resulting in a new paragraph (that's what it does) is actually default modern behavior. Word does this too. To have a line break use Shift + Enter. This might take some time getting used to, but I can promise that you will learn how to use it
Robianco Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) With regards to the line spacing above if you hold down shift when pressing return it gives a single line space rather than the double space a regular return gives. I think the update seems to be working nicely as a whole now especially on my phone. The only thing I'm not sure about is if I press on a latest page of a thread it used to remember where I'd read up to and take me to that post but now I just go back to the top of each page. Not a huge issue but I wondered if that's something that's going to update also. Ninja'd on the linespace return. Edited October 14, 2016 by Robianco

Tamas Juhasz Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the asnwers. Shift+enter is very useful. Quote Has there ever been an outbox/sent items list? You are right, never was, I remembered wrong, but in the old forum, when I sent a message, that appeared among the conversations. Now, I sent one today, and I can't find anywhere, I can't see, what I sent. ("message sent" window appeared) Maybe it's a bug, I don't know. Edited October 14, 2016 by Tamas Juhasz

Do not answer that pm (right away) I see the outgoing message in the top right... So it should be in your inbox.
Tamas Juhasz Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 Ok, thanks, maybe my message wasn't sent, although the "message sent" notification appeared. I try to send again. I sent you a test pm, too, and I don't see among the messages, like you. Nor my previous messages. I'm using firefox 38.0.5, can that cause the problem (older version)?
Jim Posted October 14, 2016 Posted October 14, 2016 I have heard more problems with PM's not being sent. I haven't received your PM. That's probably the cause of it not showing up. I need to look into it. Thanks for the info. Can you try with Chrome or another newer browser?
