We'll be taking the server offline at 9:00 CST tonight (5/17/12) to make the move to a new server. We apologize for the inconvenience, but after talking with Chris, we decided it would be better to do it on a weeknight rather than have the RTF down for a prolonged period on the weekend.

I certaintly got a lot more work done this morning.

New board looks great!! Thanks for all you do to keep this resource going!!

 

[Jason Glavich]

New board looks great. Just figured I would pass this along though. When I come to the main page it always says I am logged out, if I click on any forum it shows me a logged in. I have remember me checked, so it does keep me logged in, but it appears that I am not when I am viewing the main page for all the forums.

Same thing happens for me. and in fact I had to re-set my pass word a couple fo times before it would remember me at all. Heres hoping all the bugs are worked out now.

Also when typing my cursor keeps moving out of the text box I then have to click back at the end of my sentence to continue typing, this seems to not be present on every thread but on a few I have tried to post on. This one is not one of those with the issue. Just figured it out. It only happens when quoting someone.

Do we reset user preferences? If so, how & where?

 

[Daniel J Simoens]

Forum Actions > General Settings

on the login thing...if you have it saved in your toolbar or a shortcut on your desktop you have to delete it and then click on forum to where it says your logged in and make that your new shortcut.

Looks good. I use this format on other forums and it works well. One thing I don't like here is now the ads on top combined with the RTF logo take up most of the page that you see (I am using my iPad so it may not on a full size screen).

Yes, I'd like to see the logo back up with the ads as well. I'm using a 15" laptop monitor and only have 1/4 at most of screen that isn't taken up with ads and header.

that is a work around but does not allow the user to go to the main page and choose among forums

Hopefully this will get sorted out. Also hope the display issues with the top of page get cleared up too.

 

[blake_mhoona]

if you click the forum tab at top of the page it takes you to the main page where you choose the forum you want. make the main page your shortcut

Quite frankly I hate change! Last to get a touch tone phone, microwave, computer, cell phone.....and I don't have an ipad either! I liked life on the forum as it was.....from...Beverly Burns...no handles...just me!

Understandable. Perhaps Steve and Chris will help us understand the benefits of the new format.

 

[Chris Atkinson]

Guess what folks....I don't like change either. Unfortunately our friend Mr. Gates at Microsoft and the folks who make our discussion board software have BOTH chosen to move forward with upgrades. With the upgrade at Microsoft came compatibility issues between our former VBulletin version and their browser.

Our former VBulletin version was also no longer supported by VBulletin and we were having a number of errors that were happening behind the scenes requiring system re-boots and other issues.

Hopefully the bumps experienced today are temporary and the end result will be a more efficient and reliable set of boards.

Thanks much to Steve and DNT Media for getting the move and upgrade done to this point.

Chris
