Are the pictures broken for everyone else or just me? I haven’t been able to view any images since the change.

Have you tried marking all forums read, logging out and logging back in again?

If so and that didn't resolve it, what platform and browser are you using?

My biggest issue with editing old posts is the ability to just blank out old posts that can ruin a thread. It doesn't delete the quotes within replies so that becomes a mess where the original post has been edited by the quotes have not, so conflicting posts will be in the thread.

If there's a safety or legal concern you can report the post and a moderator will edit it.

Since so many geezers with weak eyes hang our here, could the default font be a bit larger?

Ctrl + on your keyboard and make it as large as your heart desires.

I gave up on waiting for TBN to load up on my phone since the change, so I deleted it and then downloaded it again. That worked and it seems to be the same on my phone as before the changes.

On which device?

I already made it bigger in desktop by 1pt over the old forum.

I use TBN on Amazon Fire tablet.

Okay let me check.

Would it be possible to enable editing on all the posts we've made, even the old ones? I've got several that need updating, and I don't seem to have permission to do so.

Feature Request ....
Auto-lock threads after X days/weeks to prevent spammers from bumping 20 years old threads ...
Ideally, only established members (over X days or # of posts) could bump older threads.

A couple of comments -

A couple of times I've hit 'Report' and asked that a moderator revise a recent post of mine to correct a technical detail. I think many people arrive from Google Search who need one piece of information but don't want to participate and the site is more credible if what they find is accurate.

As for locking ancient posts - In the Yanmar [classic] Forum where everything is 50 to 25 years old, its not unusual for an ancient post to be the only information available that some new owner has been searching for. Adding a follow-on question years later is harmless. As for spammers abusing this, just Report the spam and it will disappear.

Dang. The Duplicate Post problem persists. I hit Post for the message above and got back 'Something went wrong, look for a browser message. Wait 15 seconds and try again'. Did that. Same error message. Repeat. Then looked for the post in a separate tab and found three copies of it. (Deleted the last two).

And trying to post this, Post Reply got back:

Couldn't find that...

I got it also, reported here: New Problem on New Version

It is happening a lot, seeing several double and triple posts

Edit: Happened to me when posting this reply.

Posting issue was a two-headed problem and we have made two corrections. It's working normally now on our end and should be resolved for everybody else once the files are updated on your network (caching issue).

If it happens again we'll investigate further.

 

[Diggin It]

Back in business.

OP flag is now white instead of green. Intentional?

Scratch that. Now back to green.

 

[RedNeckGeek]

Thanks, Muhammad. Looks like things are back to normal.

 

[ovrszd]

I hate it when members go back and edit their post that someone has already replied to......... It's usually to save face because they said something stupid and got called out. Post a correction to the earlier post and face the music.... Did I menion I hate when members do that????? .......

I liked the banner you used to notify us. Nice tool.
