    New Private Message Feature:
    Another new thing that Slick mentioned is that you can export all you Private Messages to a file - and you can choose whether you want it as a plain text file, an XML file or CSV. That's way down at the bottom of the screen that you view your PMs in. And then, if like me you're constantly filling up your PM box, you can go back and delete anything knowing you do still have it!

    You can do that with ALL your Private Messages, or just with ones you have selected.

    I also noticed that you can either view the website in Pet Talk vBulletin 3 Style or vBulletin 2 Default. The latter looks more like it used it.

    Folks, you can see this on the blue bar at the very very bottom left-hand side. There is a drop down arrow to choose.

    Edit: I chose the vBulletin 2 Default but it only kept that look for a couple of minutes then went back to the 3 Style by itself. May we have a choice?

    Wow! So different. I logged on this morning, thinking I was on the wrong site. I guess this will take some getting used to. One thing I wanted to ask...Can't we edit/delete our posts anymore? I only see a quote button...and well...sometimes you need to edit!

    Edit: Nevermind...I see that I can edit MY post. He he he. The hearts in my siggy don't work anymore though. I'm going to goof off and see how to fix this signature stuff.

    I Miss "Today's Active Posts"
    That's okay - you can still see them, it is just in a different place in this new software. In the blue bar above the forums, there's a spot marked New Posts

    I Miss "Top 25 Posters"
    That's okay - you can still see them, it is just in a different place in this new software. When you view the Members List you can click on "Posts" to sort by who has the most posts, or by "User name" to see everyone listed alphabetically.

    I Miss being able to see everyone's birthday that's coming up this week under "Calendar"
    That's okay - you can still see them,just switch your Calendar View to Weekly View instead of Monthly View

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I miss Message Tracking in the PM system. Is that feature unavailable now? Will we still get pop ups when we get a new PM?

    Well done Karen & Paul!

    I like it! Now I have to go surf around and explore. Dang! I thought I was going to get some work done this morning! Thanks for all your hard work!

    Hi Popcornbird. Message Tracking is still available. Private Messages is the second sub-heading on the left side of the CP page. The second (or is it third?) option down is Message Tracking. And it looks like we will still get pop-ups when we get a new PM (don't know if it works yet). I also love the fact that we can export the PM's so we can clean out the box yet still have our messages. I am a bit computer challenged, but I think I may try doing that some time this evening. Thanks Karen and Paul.
    Edit: Just saw Jess's post on the emoticons. If we can get animated ones, can we get one of one laughing to replace the LOL we use (they have it on another board, wish I knew how to demonstrate like Jess did).

    You should be able to - send Paul a PM with what kind of file youre trying to attach, and he can check the settings and make sure.

    I LOVE the new WYSIWYG features for posts and replies like this!

    My question is: Is there a way to set a default for these settings rather than add them for every post?
