Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
My antivirus just ding-ding-dinged me that this website was unsafe. I told them I'd take my chances but wanted to let ya'll know. Is there a setting I need to adjust? (I am on the locked/secure version.)
This was probably my fourth visit this morning so I don't know what suddenly popped into my desktop.

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
It happened again yesterday. I can get around it by ignoring my anti-virus warning. Once I ignore the original warning, it leaves me alone for a while. It only happens on my desktop which is a win7 upgraded to 10. It has other problems, as well.
The Chromebook seems fine.

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Hi. I posted in the "Georgia guidestones" thread. Editing a post seems to result in a new post. Is there something wrong with the forum or is it just me and too many edibles? I have posted and edited posts before without any problems. Thanks.
Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
It wasn't your edibles. You may edit your own post up until the time someone quote-replies to your post after which the edit option is gone. That's what happened in your case.
Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Thanks! I realise what happened now. I replied to my original post instead of editing it. I then did it again when I tried to edit the second post to say "deleted duplicate post". I have only just now realised when I replied to your post that I had previously hit the 'quote' icon instead of the 'edit' icon... both times...
Pretty sure it's the edibles...

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Fear not ... okay, well today you can fear, I probably won't get to them until much later, I'm on the road again in a few.
But I find and delete duplicates, and I occasionally fix speling and grammer issues, and I am unable/unwilling to consume edibles because they have no effect on me (not even in mass quantities).
So if you create a dupe, just leave it and I'll fix it eventually.![Boxing :boxing:](./images/smilies/boxing.gif)

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Objection, Your Honor! You are thinking of the Delete button, the X. Editing allowed anytimes except in locked down threads.
Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Well, I seem to recall it behaved that way (locking edit after replied-to). But I can't keep track with Foghorn flipping switches and knobs on this thing.RTH10260 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 07, 2022 7:03 amObjection, Your Honor! You are thinking of the Delete button, the X.

ps. I'm switching from smoking to edibles and I'm finding them (way) more potent. Can't imagine why they have no effect on you.

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Speaking of which ...
![Boxing :boxing:](./images/smilies/boxing.gif)
Yes, it's that time again. The software that runs this fine website has been updated yet again, this time from version 3.3.7 to ... lemme see here ... yep, version 3.3.8.
Which means, in time-honored tradition on behalf of neonzx and his elk, that:
1) You will lose your board style once again
![Pointing :point:](./images/smilies/Pointing.gif)
![Evil or Very Mad :evil:](./images/smilies/icon_evil.gif)
2) Even if you go through the arduous and debilitating process of selecting your board style again, it won't be right. It won't have the links for Active Topics or Unread Posts on the top and bottom of every page, and the logos will be all screwed up, and your life will become a living nightmare for weeks.
3) Good luck.

I use hexagon reborn (black & purple) and everything seems to look and act like it's supposed to, including the active topics and unread topics links. Thank-ee oh mighty bird!

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Oh.
You noticed.
![Oops :oopsy:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
Well, that's based on the increasing popularity of Unread Posts. Let's see if anybody else has a problem with it, I can always re-reverse.

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
I awoke this morning - no, that’s not my problem - to find the entire board marked as ‘read’. That’s a lie!!!
How did that happen?
Can I undo it?

Re: Report Problems/Questions Here
Yeah, I've been there. You can't undo it, but you have to scroll up if you use Unread Posts or Active Topics. Anything you missed will eventually end up back there anyway.

This isn't a problem for me, but if perfection is the goal, it's a flaw that could be removed.
