APQS Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 Hello! The new forum software is live. Thanks for your patience! Please take a look around and try the new features. We think you'll like the new system. In the coming weeks, we'll be posting answers to frequently asked questions and tweaking a few things to better suit the community. I'd like to extend a special thank you to our beta testers while we worked out the bugs. Your help is very much appreciated. Have a great Thanksgiving weekend! - Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EHonour Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 Cleaner look. I can understand the need for change ... but what happened to our signatures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercedes Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Wow, it took me until today to figure out how to get to this site again! I kept getting error messages every time I tried to get here. Glad that's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APQS Posted November 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 Sorry for the forum troubles, folks. It's hosted at a different facility from the main website and we don't have control over that. They've assured me the problem is resolved, though! - Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Tony: Can you check out this forum thread, and tell us why the "?" question mark appears in the very first post just before the pictures? Thanks you. Cagey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamu Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Why does the page default to the last response at the bottom of the page and not to the very first posting/topic? OPPS... never mind ... just figured it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks you. Cagey If you would, please screenshot the "?" you're referencing. I don't see it here on Chrome (or I'm not looking in the right place).

IQuiltToo Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 It has taken me days to get back on here. It is ow the 30th and this is the first time I was able to get in. Now, I need to go and check out the changes! It is great to be back! Marilyn (IQuiltToo) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 1, 2016 Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 Tony This was the thread, the question mark is not longer there in the original post for some reason. I took a snap shot of how it appeared on my computer when it was originally posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InesR Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 On the "reputation" button, sometimes I can give one, and other times I am told I am unable to. What are the rules? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercedes Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 I also have a question on the new forum - is there some way to change how the messages are displayed? I see a new line for each response to a thread. On the old forum we would see one line with all responses in a the thread - that's what I want. How do I change it to receive one line per thread no matter how many responses occur? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenmtn Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 Mercedes - I have the same question. I've been going to ACTIVITY, UNREAD, SORT BY TOPIC, APPLY but I'm sure there must be an easier way that I have just not figured out yet In the old forum I would look at the list of TOPICS with new activity. It was a quick way to browse new content by TOPIC and not by each individual entry. I'm sure I'm just missing an easier way to browse the new forum. I think the look of the new forum is very nice, clean looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the look of the new forum is very nice, clean looking. Glad you like it! Have you tried creating your own Activity Streams? Activity -> Create New Stream -> Title your stream and select your options -> click Save Changes When you view the new stream under My Activity Streams, you should see three options next to the title you gave it: Edit, Remove, Set as Default. Click Set as Default to make this stream your default view. This will replace the default "Unread Content" link below the search box. Hope that helps! - Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
