I think. :))

I have been prepping it for a smooth and quick upgrade and I think it was a success.

Let me know if there are any problems.

Wait! I don't like it! It's CHANGED!!!! I click on my CTT icon and it takes me to an Activity Stream page, new posts is no longer the first thing on the tool bar and now the 3rd tab! To much change all at once!

Wait it depends on what page you are on. The New Post link changes spots. :-/

The Activity Stream is a new feature that was part of this version.

If it really is annoying, I can deactivate it.

If you think this is some change, wait until Version 5 comes out...haha

I don't handle change well. I can tell I'm starting to get old!

Double arrows on the top right of the forum page by admin brings up new posts, that's new also I think....

This is how the masthead appears on a Mac. Looks like some tweaking is in order.

Just an option I turned on. I want to try putting different things on the sidebar.

Yep, I changed mine and it scrunched it all up. I'll have to look for something to fix that.

Also, the Facebook buttons are messed up, but only with IE9. I fixed one of them and am working on the one that is supposed to be at the top of the page.

Much nicer ...

You can scan through and identify feed updates within seconds.

Takes about 5 days before change haters quit bitching.

It's a love/hate relationship. She loves and hates herself for it.:)):))

There was a bit of a lag when the page loaded the Facebook link. I thought I noticed it, but then stormy let me know she noticed it too. I turned it off and that fixed it. So there'll be no Facebook option as long as that is an issue. No biggie, not many people used it anyway.

Also, if the forum logs you off unexpectedly, you might need to delete your cookies. The new ones are probably interferring with the old ones.

No problems here.
I like that when I answered two different posts in the same thread, separately, it spliced them together nicely and automatically. That was always a pain for me to do manually.

Rick
January 21st, 2013, 6:34 PM
Are you talking about the Multi-quote?

I first quoted and answered Grumpy, then went back and decided to answer just2cents.
In the past, that would have resulted in two posts, one after another, but now I get the two, spliced together.

Wow, I finally found out what that "Friend" thing is all about.
In the Activity Stream, I see posts from anyone listed as "Friend"
(I read that somewhere, but never saw it work, and not that I will use it, I log on, automatically, to updated threads)

(didn't splice 'em this time. must have some max time allowed.)

Rick

Hmmm, I have seen that on the Vbulletin forum, but not here. It might "update" until someone responds...I'll try it.

Rick

It's called "Doublepost" I have it set at five minutes. Weird

Ok, I got it. It was defaulted to not allow my posts to be merged. I changed the time limit to 15 minutes. We'll see how it works.

And it keeps posting my stuff twice. :)

I'm going to look into this double posting issue later.

For now, I'll turn it off.

Tab icon shows Vbulletin icon rather than the CTT icon.
Don't know if that's my system or not.

It does it for me too.

Rick you know when you have your browser open and you have several different views on it? The little icon on the tab used to be the Texas symbol but now it is something else.

Mestral
January 22nd, 2013, 3:51 PM
I still got the Texas symbol on mine.

Rick
January 22nd, 2013, 3:54 PM
Maybe they are using the Default style. Will look at it tonight.

Everything is running fine for me and for the people who don't like the sidebar thing you can hide it.
Thanks Rick.

The mailman is too cute. Can you tell I don't get a lot of pm's?
Came on and thought why do I have this dude on my screen? Then I hovered over him and it told me. He reminds me of my grandpa:)

I've never met you or Dave in person. I picture you all hunkered down the the hollow of a tree with your laptop, feathers askew, and yellow eyes grimly surveying the horizon for tax-and-spend types. I picture Dave in his man cave with ESPN on TV, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit editions from the past five years strewn about, and a bowl of Beer Nuts next to his computer.

So yeah, I'd rather picture siamcat's opa any time.

You forgot the guns, lots of gun and it's a bunker, not a man cave.

As you me, you hit the nail on the head.:))
