New Forum and FAQs!!!

@OccultScientist I have come across another small 'issue'.
If you are signed in the website on the PC and you leave it dormant for a while, the site logs you out and you have to sign in again. Is this a glitch or a new 'setting' ?

The old one did that to me as well

We are just having a snoop round but looks a lot more robust to what it did before. Love the look and feel of it

Same here, couple of hours of being inactive got me automatically logged out.


Couple of things from me. First off, is it no longer possible to view a user's thanks/mentions/tags counts? I know the thank can be viewed on their profile, but the others seem to have disappeared.

Also the likes that a user has and what is displayed next to their posts don't match up. For example @cloudz vapour (as they are on my screen atm) have received 7 likes, but next to their post it says they have received 1.

And final things, because I gripe about lazy stuff, the Alt+S shortcut for posting no longer works. Not sure what forum software you are on, so can't say whether I have found it to work on this system before or not.

Hmm doesn't seem to have a post shortcut as default.

What about my other questions?

EDIT: Alt+S shortcut can be reactivated by switching to BB Code Editor.

2nd EDIT: while shortcut is reactivated in BB mode, you have to manually select BB Code Editor every time, which kinda defeats the point of the shortcut.

Just a random thing that I've noticed is that on previous version of site when you clicked on a forum section you would get a list of sub-headings and at the bottom there would be a list of which mods were responsible for that section which could prove handy (I never used it myself but it did seem like a good idea) how do we know who does what now? thanks
I am otherwise loving the upgrade.

Basically, we have done away with moderators for specific forums (they were all the same anyway ) and you can now contact any member of staff as required
