New Forum Software Tips and Tricks

[12ring]

W/o reading through all this, HtH I do a search?
And do I need to change something/format something on my phone?
I didcsee a post showing a "go to top" button, but I don't have that. I have to hit a drop down menu to get that option.

how can we look up other members now?

how can we look up other members now?

The only way I have seen to do this now is by going to the Home page and scroll to the bottom and click on the "users online". But you will only see who is online now, and a bunch of guests.

Or you can click on the Search option at the upper right of webpages and select Advanced Search. Then if you know how the members name starts, you can start typing it in and it will show member names similar.

I think when the new site first came on there was an option to display all members. But that may have been turned off.

As I recall, you have to be in one of the forums (fora?) to find the member list. Try there.

From the top like shown. PC and my Samsung phone shots, respectively.

With this, you would also be able to start typing the member name and be able to find them.

How do you turn off the predictive text/auto correct? It is driving me INSANE.

Still looking for resolution here……..

Latest example: type in the pound sign/number sign and then put a number right behind it. See what posts.

still changing other typed words as well.

I really don't think you will find the solution here since you said the settings in the phone are correct. Maybe an administrator will happen to see this and confirm that the forum software doesn't do that. You may want to go to your phone store and get their take on it. Would be a start.

Like I said before, not the devices. Also, doesn’t t happen on other forums I frequent. Even posted an example you a pan try your self (can, not pan, yet another example. I type ‘can’ and ‘a pan’ is what posted).

and, yes, the question was directed to the staff as a heads up and hopeful resolution.

I can no longer easily find old threads or posts. What's the tip/ trick here?

[Artos]

Gary, try using google / duckgo with your search words & texasbowhunter in the search bar...it won't work for the classifieds where it won't have access.

Advanced search feature.

Anyone else getting email notifications days after they should be?

^^ I'm getting email notifications, but late, like 5 days after the fact.

In the last two weeks, I have noticed that I am no longer getting any email notifications from thread subscriptions. I've checked my settings, and I have the spot checked for "email notification" and I re-saved those settings just in case. I still have the Notification Alert showing at the top of my screen, but the emails have completely stopped. Same for private messages also.

Mine had stopped, too. I’ve noticed that this phenomenon coincides with the on-again-off-again toggling of TaT. As of yesterday, my email began receiving TBH updates again.
