[RESOLVED] Edited: I NOW see the Difference :-)

Hi All

I don't see any difference after the upgrade :confused:

The only thing that I noticed that it informed me that my pm was 95% and then i had to delete some of my messages

Thats it...

Am I missing something?

Edit: I just noticed that the 'member's list' is now under 'Community'

Edit:
Changed the thread title ;)

Well there are still a few more left. :)
(Remember I run a few of my own vB sites on 3.7.5 so I know almost all the new features)

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

I can't seem to figure out how to use the "Multi-Quote this Message" and "Quick Reply to this Message". When I click these buttons, nothing happens. I'm using FF 3.0.7

Still writting it up but click the "+" button to change it from blue to red. Then select the next post you want to add to the quote/post.

Hey,

A tutorial would be great to find out all the new features. Where is this tutorial likely to end up?

Thanks!!

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

I also found that I edited a thread and put the right "Title" there... but it doesn't reflect in the post. I had to put that manually in the text.

EDIT: Aahhh.. ok now I see.. it is there in the list (seperate word from the thread title text now). That's a good feature :)

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

Hmmmnnn... It seem some of those new features are already existing in CodeGuru since last year. Why did they just upgrade ours now?

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

I dont think CG was upgraded that long ago but this site has too many hacks so it was scheduled last. Plus its a sensitive community. :)

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

I noticed before that I have been robdogged one referral! I had 3 but my referral count is now 2. Why is that?

I like the tags feature, we need to start encouraging people to tag stuff. It can make a big difference in searches.

Hey,

Great job on the FAQ so far, just had a quick read of it. Have a question though..

Is the social bookmarking section a browser specific feature? I am using Google Chrome, and I don't seem to see it anywhere, nor do I see an option of adding it in?!?

Thanks

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

Thanks :) I whipped it up in a couple of hours. Took more time creating images then anything lol.

I believe the bookmarking should be turned on or whatnot as most other JM forums have it on. I just took the jump that it will be on tomorrow. I'm sure there are still many settings and tweaks that they have to do so keep your eyes peeled :thumb:

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

Okay dokay, will do.

I am really liking the new layout of the forums, it is a lot easier to read than it was before IMO.

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

Maybe its switch to a zero based array :p

I'll see if its a known bug.

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

I'd guess that your referrals were reduced because someone that mentioned you as a referral was likely banned or removed and the counter didn't get reset until the database was rebuilt to the new version. That is, however, just a guess.

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

BTW what is a referral? From where do we see it? :)

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

If yout look in your control pannel then at the bottom "Referrals". I believe its a count of the number of users you have refered. Doesnt meen anything tbh.

Brad. First of All please accept my compliments on this wonderful website. You guys made my day when I logged in today. I am sure you could make it out by reading the initial few posts of mine :)

Regarding the refs, I don't think that could be the case as almost 3 members are 'Robdogged' (man i love this term)

The only way to confirm this would be... How can I know who my referrals are?

As far as I know you can't, and there's not really any need to - we don't use it for anything.

That new user stats thing looks great :thumb:

However, I couldn't spot any Referrals like thing there. Maybe that's because I might not have any referrals. :(

This is what I see:

Re: [RESOLVED] I don't see any Difference

The referral status is under "Statistic" (3rd tab) and under the "General Information" You have 0 referrals :)

Aah.. I see now.

It is 0 for me. So what is a Referral and who refers whom for what?

Don't worry about them since on this forum they are meaningless.
