New Stuff!!!

Great job Karen and Paul!!! Looks terrific with lots of neat options...Still "adjusting!" Thank you so much for all the work you put into this!

Two questions...with the old software I could use my "view" option on my computer's taskbar to make the font size (for the site) larger or smaller but can't seem to change it now. Would that be due to the new program?

Also, miss having the option of clicking on the dog, cat and pet of the day write up links at the bottom of the page. Often refer back to them when writing my reply. Any chance of getting that back?

And did I read somewhere that you added a chat room? Can't find the post now or a link!

Thanks!

Yes, we get pop-ups when we get PM's - I just got a few and it tells you the subject and sender in the pop-up!

We'll be adding those links back in, thanks for the reminder.

We didn't add a chat room, but Randi set one up for the time Pet Talk was down, which helped afterwards as I was able to talk to her regarding her log-in troubles!

Thanks Boss!

Notice the red triangle next to the post number? That's going to be a easy & great way to report problem posters without cluttering up the thread.

Hmmm. Wonder why I don't have a red triangle on this post? Maybe because it's my post and it won't show on YOUR post, too.

omg i love that thing right next to the red triangle .that has what number you are on the post!

I found advance search. It seems simpler than before.
What is a child forum?

[Freckles]

Members List only includes those who have posted at least once!
Are total members listed anywhere?

I found it! Bottom of first page, What's Going on?, Pet Talk statistics.

I really like the way the avatars and profile information are shown on the members page I think it looks really nice. I also like that when a member posts it shows the date that they joined, I think it's a nice little addition.

We don't have any "child" forums. That's like a "sub-forum" and I've never found it very helpful, so we don't use them.

Just you "see" yourself on the who's online even if you're invisible, you see a red dot next to yourself if you are logged in but invisible, a green dot if you are logged in and visible, and a grey dot if you're not logged in.

Look what i come back to after a weekend away :d. Love the new changes, it will be fun getting used to all the new toys.

question.....

How come the Post Icons aren't under every forum? I love these little post icons!

Is there any way to alphabatize the Currently Active Users?

Is there any way to alphabatize the Currently Active Users?

I'm guessing it's when we came on line, maybe.

"Did you figure out how to do this?
If you are in a thread, left click on the Person's name. You'll get several options including
"View Public Profile" click on that.
You'll get more options including "Forum info which gives total posts and
"Find all posts by .....
and Find all threads started by......
COOL
If you are not in a thread and left click on the Person's name, say where it's listed on the first page as a poster, you'll go directly to the profile."

Now, here's what's new:
If you want to search for a particular post or thread by a known user, go to Search - Advanced search - Search by use Name --
Now you are given two choices, Find Posts or Find Threads - another timesaver.
