Noodle Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 (edited) I love the look, but am very sad that the VIEW NEW POSTS feature is gone. It was so convenient to use when you are interested in what is happening, but have very little time to go through every forum.

Vicky_CO Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 It is not gone It is under the link "View New Content" top right corner under the search box here is the link to it, http://www.craftserver.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=viewNewContent&search_app=forums You can also customize what new, you want to look at I have mine set for the last 24 hours.

SuzyK Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 The view new content doesn't work the same as the view new posts feature. I know there are posts that I haven't read and it tells me that there's no new content. Just letting you know. I don't know if it's fixable.I also miss the today's posts button. I'm trying to get the used to the new board, it will take some time. I do appreciate having the board available so I'm just glad it's still here.

Vicky_CO Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Thanks for the info Suzy. I do not think it is fixable like you want but I will keep looking in to it and see what I find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megandgarr Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 When you go to Display New Content, there should be an options list on the left hand side where you can display new content by type and by time period. I have mine set to type as "forum" and time period as "2 weeks" and it will display all the new content within that time frame. Once I have read a post, it still shows up in the display however the title is no longer bolded until a new post is added. Are these options not something that everyone has?

moonshine Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I just figured that out as well- I was only getting some of the forums new content but I now get them all and I like that feature of seeing what you have read alreadyAt first it seemed like a ghost town in here but now I am getting the hang of it!

moonshine Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 are we not going to be able to access old threads now? I went back to look at some and they are locked… so are we starting all new now and no more archiving all the information that was out there?

Vicky_CO Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Can you give me an example.? You should have access to all of the old threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 when I go to say general candle making and hit forward to the last page ( three hundred and something) and click on a title- it tells me this thread is locked and nothing is there- does it on all forums to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 sorry it says "this topic is locked" with a red lock to the right- does it on several- is there a different way to search all the old stuff? Thanks Vicky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky_CO Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 Most threads made the change but it look like some did not. There is no telling why. So no we are not starting from scratch but some things just did not make it. It does go back to 2005. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Thanks Vicky- I see now where I can get to older things- guess I was trying to access ancient threads! lolwhen you hover over a persons name what is the number in the green box mean? I have a 6 and was just curious what that is all about- some have different numbersI am really liking the new look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky_CO Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 I am still trying to figure that one out. When I do I will let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcuset Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Thank you for the work you're doing on the new board, it can't be an easy job! I'm still fumbling around trying to find my way & I realize old links don't work any longer in threads (at least the ones I tried)...but it sure looks good! Change is never easy, is it? :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megandgarr Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 when you hover over a persons name what is the number in the green box mean? I have a 6 and was just curious what that is all about- some have different numbers I was on my profile and when I hovered over the number in the green box, a little window popped up that said I have that number of likes. I guess it is kind of like FB where someone can "like" a post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonshine Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Oh that makes sense.... I was getting notifications of likes on my posts- pretty cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravens Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Ok, now I can use the emoticons - IF I use Firefox, not IE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
