Tripredacus Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 First post seems important, how to view content? The unread content button up top is really the place to change your stream settings now, because by default it probably shows you more than you want to see. Above that on the main menu bar is an Activity button. That is where you get to see your custom content views. Here are a couple pics: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 Thanks for the pointers so far... I've made "Threads Since Last Visit" and "Threads I've Posted In" streams. Unfortunately, the latter shows all recent posts for each thread, even in "condensed view". All I want to see is the titles of all the threads that I've posted in, sorted by the date of the most recent posting by anyone in the thread. This is what I had before, and I'm not seeing how to do that with the new forum software yet. -Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I'm seeking out a way to edit my signature. I don't see it in my profile anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Looks like you can get to the signature through Account Settings... -Noel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dencorso Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Look into "Account Settings". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
submix8c Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Methinks I'll follow this one. Just figured out the "streams" thingy that Noel mentioned above. And agree that the "old way" was more conducive to "what's new since last visit". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bphlpt Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I'm confused, you mean the ones that are in both yours and Trip's posts? Cheers and Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their filenames begin with "streams1" and "streams2". And there's something at the bottom of your own post that reads "yEv6k.jpg". --JorgeA Edited March 15, 2016 by JorgeA typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the new internet, where after years of standardization everything is more difficult, incompatible or both. jaclaz The problem is, there is no URL, let alone a hyperlink underline. All it looks like to me is the isolated filename of a JPG file: I am shown no way to view the file. Here's a screenshot of what Trip's and bphlpt's JPG files look like on my monitor: (Well, OK, I can't figure out how to make the screenshot show up embedded in the post. It doesn't show up when I click on "Preview Post".) --JorgeA (OK, somehow the screenshot did show up correctly.)

The issue is most probably a combination of the browser you are using with the stupid board software (or whatever, like ad blockers, security suites, etc.). Try getting this (ENTIRELY PORTABLE and small sized, though possibly having some limits): http://www.qtweb.net/ and use it to browse the site, can you see those images with it? How do you think I managed to get the full link? jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous that the board software would not work properly on a modern browser. Will try that portable browser you suggest, but it would be tedious and annoying as all h3ll to have to open a dedicated browser just to view MSFN properly. --JorgeA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JorgeA Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) All right, Trip's images do show up in QtWeb. Thanks, jaclaz. The question now becomes, how to make them display properly in Pale Moon. --JorgeA UPDATE: Well, what do you know -- when this page refreshed after submitting this post, both Trip's and bphlpt's images showed up.

Tripredacus Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Also seems odd that one of those images Photobucket uploaded to the wrong location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
