Forum Upgrade

[simwells]

Are you sure you're not in the send list by accident? I've not seen this happen - let me know!

How would I check this? I?m just seeing participants in the conversation but no send to list. Doesn?t seem to be a lot of options but I might be missing something. It doesn?t really matter either it?s just a bit strange I?ve only spoken to one person since the change as well so might be a one off.

New posts feature does everything I was looking for just hadn?t hunted.

For those that may not like crapatalk, could we download the vbulletin app Deano and use that to access the forum?

I don't see why not if that's a thing?

There will be a UKCF dedicated one once I fork out ?80 for an Apple dev license (I didn't realise this!)

[Tomm783]

My bad, just downloaded the app and it?s for access to vbulletin itself talking IT language I have no idea about

We?ll stick with crapatalk for now! Deano, does anyone on here have a apple dev account you could utilise?

Ta!

Yeah I'll look into its functionality and see what its meant to do vs what we can make it do!

[Deano]

Hm - you can turn off 'show topics' in the 'new activity' filter which just shows posts. Is this what we want?

so there's 2 bits we're missing that I miss.

new posts - i think its now something that Deano has to configure? I can do it with an advanced search in the last day. Wonder if there's an option to save such a search?

go to top link - has gone. This was handy for jumping back up to the controls quickly.

Deano want me to raise a ticket for each?

p.s. good work, much appreciated!

I really don't need anymore tickets!!!

Where did the "go to top link" used to sit? There's a link in the footer, was it somewhere else too? I imagine I can add this easily enough.

In the footer! Didnt spot it there behind my water bottle. Thanks

I think it used to be in the footer of each message in a thread? But I dont remember... But footer is good enough for me!

Cheers!

Just added it next to the thread nav at the bottom of a thread. See it? Next to previous, 1,2,3,4 etc. Is this useful too?

Deano, I'm trying to clear my messages but it won't let me. I've cleared the inbox but it says there are 532 in my sent box and won't let me clear them!

[Deano]

Oh this is new. "Comment".
Anyway, in what way won't it let ya? Any error? Just tried mine and it worked

[PeeJay]

It tells me they've been deleted but then they're still sitting there, 27 pages of them. The odd thing is that I've never kept sent messages on the old forum.

[Deano]

I can try to delete them manually on the DB. They're saved automatically unless you delete them. I presume you didn't delete them reguarly?

[Deano]

PeeJay apparently I can't. I have to delete all of your messages. Various support responses state so: https://forum.vbulletin.com/forum/vb...-for-all-users

Is this going to be ok, you'll need to back up anything you need first. Sorry!
