I'm not seeing any of the older threads when I visit each category (Kernel and Modules, Networking, Technical, etc...)
Nevermind, I got it :)
The current colour scheme makes some text in the front page difficult to read.
Edited-------------------------
Front page OK now but the row for "edit post/Reply/Replay with Quote" still difficult to make out
I agree with some of the text being hard to make out. My first view of this new scheme I didn't realize there was black text in the dark gray bars.
Also, I don't see the timestamp for the posts.
Just uploaded an image, but don't see it anywhere. OK, nevermind. It just showed up.
How do I find all of the posts I have made in the past? I forget the html code to to give an inserted link a readable name.
In my signature I had Folding Is Fun. I changed the link that I want there, but forget how to 'label' it as Folding Is Fun. I had a thread about that sometime in the past, but I can't seem to find any of my posts older than this one.
Yeah, the timestamps are completely unreadable to me unless I highlight them. Reply etc. is not much better.
Also, the quick moderation links don't seem to work anymore. It looks like there is a thread awaiting moderation but clicking the link gives me a 404.
Ah.. now I see the invisible timestamps in the white bar just above the poster's name. That's probably just a minor tweak for the forum tinkerers. ;-)
Try something like: [ url=http://biguglylongurlthatyoudon'twanttodisplay.com]Pretty name[/url]Quote:

Thanks Cybertron. That fixes the Signature. Still like to know about findind my posts. There's probably a link somewhere in my profile that says 'find all my posts', or something like that. I'll look deeper when I get home tonight.
I've noticed some problems searching for older posts too. Seems like maybe anything posted before the upgrade isn't in the search index.Quote:

True. The search function is a known issue and will be addressed shortly.Quote:

Are there. You just can see em very well due to the White text on White background. The MOD link should take you to the control panel where you "should" be able to moderate threads and posts... But all of these issues should get fixed soon.
EDIT: The links got fixed while I was typing;)
Moderators - the Quick Mod link has been fixed.
The line at the bottom of thread with Edit Post- Reply - Reply With Quotes -> Color was changed to make it easier to read.
OK... I just now figured out what you guys meant about the "timestamp." Will ask that they fix that.
The white text on the dark background looks good.
The timestamps seem to be white text on a white background just above your name. Just need to make that text some other color besides white. That will show the post # also, which is white on white all the way over to the right.
Thanks . . .
The timestamp line color was changed today.
Looking good.
Can we get a 'Latest Topics' back, say under the LinuxToday box? Since this forum isn't as lively as years past, I put more time between coming back here. That box was great for catching up.
Have you tried the "What's New" tab or the New Posts link?
Yes, but it only shows you replies to post you have made an entry to since the last time you logged in. If I come back after 2 weeks I'd like to see all the post that have had activity in that span - like the Latest Topics used too. It kept x amount of most recent, even if the last few were months old on slow points. Exact behavior doesn't need to be mimic, but being able to quickly see which post are active and how many responses were nice. Easy way to try and help people when you see a topic you know and 0 responses vs having to go through every header.
I'll ask the IT people about it... I always click the "Mark Forums Read" link as I'm leaving. Then when I come back I can easily see which forums have new posts/threads.
On Chrome. Unless I highlight it. It's a dark gray background with just a slightly lighter text.
This one...

Good catch...That's a pretty important page that people need to be able to read..

Steve,
It can be frustrating to lose the work during the time limit imposed by the forum for posting. This can happen to a long post or a slow typing member.
A minimum arrangement, as provided by some others, is to allow the user to click the "Go Advance" and re-log in against. Thereafter by clicking the back arrow to re-capture the previous page and re-submit the post successfully.
I notice the "auto saved" warning flashed up 4 to 5 times during my reply so may be this has been put right.

Yes. It works OK now, as far as I can tell.
