Ladies and Gentlemen (and anything inbetween)
We have many posts with issues post upgrade, can we use this thread to collect them, more chance of getting things changed.
My biggest gripe, is the default resolution, the css frame is too large for the content (although very pretty)
Temp work around use the view function of your browser ( crtl and + will work on most desktop/laptops).
Mobile devices have their own way (usually a pinch on the touch screen).
It's both what you do and the way that you do it!

Hi Ian
Thank you for your reply.
I will do as you have mentioned here about the friendship requests.
I will report any 'bad' PM behaviour if need be from my own situation on here.
Unknown said: Hi Blackbird, in response to your comments about private messaging, if you do not know someone who has invited you to be friends and you are unsure whether you want them as a friend, simply do not accept the request. If someone that you do accept then abuses the system you can de-select them and report the actions to the moderating team. Best wishes

Hi all, just an update on things, we've been scanning through all the threads since the new forum was unleashed and have compiled a list of things that need looking at. We are hoping to resolve as many of these things as possible in the next few days so please bear with us.

Hi IanH
Good luck with that. :-))
I love the use of the word 'unleashed', it makes me think of a runaway dog. Still, better that than a runaway train.....
Best wishes Chris

Hi mpiekp

Why is everyone suddenly writing text in the Tags box? LOL LOL.
Cheers, Linda.

:) for your wonky links issue, try pasting the link (this works in rich format or quick quote
and wrap it in url tags [ url] [ /url]. for them to show I've added a space , the [ should touch url
If you mean my bold signature that is normal font then I have already tried everything except throwing the PC out of the window.
I tried adding [ b ] and then /b ] without spaces to 'Best wishes, Chris' in my signature box and it did absolutely nada
It's still in bold on my profile page. Perhaps with the new system it takes 24 hours or more to update. I think not because it was fine this morning when I started posting.
If you mean that every time I try (I say try because half the time it doesn't work) to post something from my Photobucket web-site, I end up with a broken link > in front of it, and then my signature then turns into a 'bad request' link, I will try what you suggest next time.
TBH patience has never been one of my virtues, and I'm losing it fast. :-(

Hi Sparrow
They probably see the words Edit Tags in red, and start typing in there without being aware that that box is for adding Tags referring to the subject of their Post.
Tags are just like they used to be before, at the bottom of the Post, but now everyone can see them where they couldn't before.
I will add a Tag saying this post is about typing Tags
