Feedback

[Hermie]

Here's feedback about something I really loved about the "old" cafe:

When clicking a link you don't loose the page (_blank) but you get a new page. I was trying to find out about the sig and avatar (I think my problem is/ was the size of them, they had different standards, then) and used the post of uk2usa but had to open another tab so i could switch back and forward to see what to do.

I still believe the best solution is the _blank cammand

Another feedback:

Where are the smileys we could enter. With the "old" cafe they were ad the side for us to pick, now we have to remember the codes for them to work.

Click reply and you will see a smily in the editing bar, click that and the smilies are there
Ill talk to Matt about the other issue with the _blank

[Hermie]

Thanx Colin. I transfered my reply from basic to advanced and the smileys are there....

I think it's handy because you don't loose the page where you were...

RE: New Forum - inserting Smiles or emotion icons.

I am still kicking the tires and lookin’ around.
Even with Advance Reply, I can not insert new icons within the text.

I like those little graphics.
I only seem to be able to insert icons at the TOP of the message when selecting "Post Icons".

Please excuse me for being so web techie impaired.
What am I am missing here?

Hello Kathryn,

Just go under settings and on the bottom it says "Miscellaneous Options"

Message Editor Interface:

Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing
Basic Editor - A simple text box
Standard Editor - Extra formatting controls

When posting messages to the forums or other members, there are three interface types available to you. The simplest of these is a simple text box, while the last is a fully-fledged WYSIWYG editor, which allows you to format your text as you want it and see the results immediately.

Depending upon the capabilities of your web browser, you may not be able to use all of these options. If you experience problems when posting messages, try switching to a different interface type.

How what to insert:

When entering a photo into the post we normally use [img][/img], right.
When I use the BB Code I get that to + attachments....


When I use the Picture URL I only get the link (in orange)

How do I get the attachment without the big image?

Hope I made sence

Click the imge button in the tool bar and either upload an image from your computer or paste in the url of an online image. You don't have to write any code
