OT Testing

[julius]

I'll run a test later today (malwarebytes is one I know of..any suggestions?)

 

[Denny Crane]

I'm not a windows guy. I don't need malware or spyware or virus scanners on the mac

Ask SPD, he knows.

run malwarebytes, then download spybot, run the immunization feature and that will prevent you getting a lot of spyware.

This is just a test post...1st time here since the update.

Hey Denny, is it possible to add refresh button like the back to top button? Yeah, it's only 2 clicks as it is now for me on chrome but one click right by the back to top would be super convenient and nice

 

[Denny Crane]

control-R or command-R?

Or



Any of those work for you?

 

[Boise Blazer]

If that last post was for me then I was referring to being my mobile. Especially when I am in the game threads I like to just refresh to stay in the same thread. I was just trying to do it one step quicker

 

[julius]

I removed the rich text editor, and now the speed is fine.

There is no lag

 

[julius]

Was the bb code editor the default and somehow I switched it?

 

[julius]

It now works much better on firefox too.

On my iPhone, if I tap on the time at the top, it jumps to top of the page:



There's probably a similar way on android. I don't have one of those phones to figure it out for you

What's with the pathetic sampling of emoticons?

Unworthy of a great forum like ours.

Gotta agree; I'm missing my go-to emoticons.

 

[julius]

I'm testing it on an older laptop, and once I closed Rich Text Editor, the lag went away.

On a semi unrelated note, I'm upgrading my other laptop to windows 8. Let's just say it had an accident. Hehe. So you won't see me on as much over the next day or so.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

is anybody else having this problem? i havent noticed it

 

[BBert]

I can't get a sig pic to post. Apparently, I can no longer insert a pic from my computer. I copied the pic to photobucket, but it still won't load.

Help?

I'm not sure that sigpic works in xenforo. You can have pictures in your signatures tho.



Can you not insert pictures anywhere (like in thread posts)? Please be as descriptive as you can about the problem.

How do I turn off images and avatars? This is a big deal to me.

 

[Denny Crane]

It's not a feature that's built in.

However, I think I may be able to add a plugin that provides this feature.

 

[Denny Crane]

 

[illmatic99]

Yup something like that. It was available on the old version. How do I access it?

 

[illmatic99]

I don't get the updates that some of you are enjoying. I come here for Blazer updates, news, and funny convos/ venting. The twitter feed, the facebook stuff, pics in titles, avatars everywhere just adds unnecessary clutter. If there was a way to turn all of that off, I'd really appreciate it.

And not to mention, the ridiculous amount of data I use now on tapatalk when I visit the forum now...

I have to install it. Later today, like 5PM after work

And I don't control what TapaTalk does. They provide a plugin on the server that talks to the database and to the client on the phone. They've been updating the client program and I think it's taken a turn for the worse. HCP's been complaining about their changes for a while now.

You might try visiting the site in the browser on your phone. I think the experience is better than tapatalk anyway. Several people have posted they like it better than tapatalk, too.

No guarantees it works. It looks like a not maintained plugin that's for previous versions of the software. I will try it on a staging server first and see if it works before making it live. If it doesn't work, we're SOL for a bit. I'll dig into the code and make it work, just no promises it'll be today or tomorrow. Maybe by the weekend.

I go to "Settings: Signature". There is no longer a way that I can see to upload a picture from my computer. The only obvious option is the formatting button called "image". "Image" asks for an "Image URL". I upload a picture to photobucket. I copy the URL to "Image URL". I insert the URL. The result is a red 'x' and 'img', like when a page won't load an image. (see below)

These are the permissions for user BBert:



This is what I see in your signature:



The tags look in improper order, with two [[ in a row.

Try erasing your whole signature and redo it from scratch. I know images work in signatures - see mine...

To insert an image, click on this button:



It should work.

 

[Denny Crane]

I was able to add an image to my signature just fine:

 

[Denny Crane]

and remove it

 

[speeds]

Is it possible to choose a custom picture for a new thread rather than use the avatar image of the OP?
