    Please post any bugs, problems or questions you have with the new website here. I'm sure there will be many as I continue to get everything sorted out and configured properly.

    Thanks

    Clicking on the Logo or the About GIRS tab will both take you to the home page.

    There's going to be a lot more stuff on the main menu before I'm done, so I'm trying to conserve space.

    Sorry if this has already been answered - but will we have access to messages in our in-box prior to upgrade? Right now, I don't have any older msgs.

    This was mentioned in the upgrade notification thread that I created last week. There is no conversion tool to move from the old PM system to the new one, so unfortunately PM's are getting reset.

    I have provided temporary access to the old PM system via the new Message Center Page (Bottom Right).

    I liked the list on the right hand side that showed the newest topics. Will you put that back into the bare space that is there now?

    Unfortunately that module has not yet been updated to work with our new software. I will add it back as soon as it's made compatible. In the mean time, I would suggest you try the "Active Topics" link in the upper left hand corner of the forum pages. It provides essentially the same functionality.

    When the bugs are worked out will the get more button at the bottom of the page of active topics show in order what people have posted? How many postings will this show? Will it go back for a number of postings or pages or be organized by days? Just curious how this will work since It was a feature I often used on the old site. Thanks.

    Maureen, I've added everything I can at this point. On the active topics page there is a drop down list (top right) that allows you to select a time range) The default value is since your last visit, but you can make it go back much further if you like. Unfortunately it does not save your selection (I've requested this as an enhancement).

    As for the "What's New" list from the home page. The software authors don't think that the module is needed anymore. I have argued otherwise but who knows if they will change their mind. If they do, I will re-add it as soon as it's updated to work with this version of our forum software.

    You'll probably need to switch the editor to HTML mode before pasting it in. For images you can also use the "Insert Image" button on the toolbar.

    Is there an easy way to find members for adding as friends, sending pm's, etc? I can't get past the early B's (screen names) when I click on load more /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/sad.gif I wish I was more computer savy JB!

    Pet store directory is fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

    Sponge: I don't know why the member directory is limiting the results to the first 146 records. I think it is a bug in the software that I'll have to report. In the mean time, i would suggest using the search feature at the top of that page.
