A Test Post

[Bruce]

Hi, I am Bruce.

I really look forward to getting to know you.

This video really helps me get through the winter

This is the full version of my avatar photo (apparently I need to work on image uploads).

I really like the WYSIWYG editor, I hope you do too

Bruce,

I gave you a like to test that feature…

I am supposed to be able to drag and drop images, does it work?

It does, and it creates thumbnails automatically.

What happens if I insert full size?

What if I try the upload link?

That still has an error. Maybe it is a Mac Safari issue, could some else try the "Upload a File" link when posting.

Mel, the forum is not accessible at all without first using the Liberty / Freedom login. I want to leave it that way until we are ready to show it to the world. Without knowing that username and password outsiders can not see anything. I believe that also is causing the issue I am having with the upload a file link. But dragging and dropping pictures works just fine.

I wonder if I can drag and drop a Youtube video? Nope that did not work. But if you want to embed a video click the media logo above then copy and paste the URL from the you tube video and it will show up.

Very Very Very nice UI. Not clear to me how to turn on and off WYSIWYG controls on an IPAD. Seems to always want to have one of them turned on for some reason.

@Bruce user tagging is cool.



Photo insert is easy.

When I try to login the admin link, is says "Your account does not have admin privileges"

 

[Bruce]

@Julian I thought that adding you to the groups was enough. Apparently not. You should be able to login as administrator now.

This all looks real cool! I like it a lot.

I am going to need a little education as to how to access admin tools and how to use them it seems. It did let me log in as admin now and thanks...but explain tagging tool. Also, using the @ and a name to alert who your talking to? How? Just copying from their post profile doesn't seem to grab it or bring up a "copy" link. I was pretty familiar on the other forum...but these newer forums have features I haven't figured out and some I am not sure I like very well. Like a tab to take you to the top of the page. Is there another way to do that?

 

[Bruce]

To tag someone simply type @username . @txav8r

 

[txav8r]

@Bruce...can you do this with a copy/paste action? Some of these user names can be a little complicated!

 

[Bruce]

@txav8r When you start to type @username a box pops up with matching usernames after the first three characters. If you click on the name in the box it will complete your tag. For example

@Bruce Got it! You didn't know you were going to be a kindergarten teacher did you? I also see the "back to top" tab at the bottom now...just getting familiar.

 

[Bruce]

Mel, If I tried to do your job for a day, I am pretty sure I would make the national news if not international.

I added a "back to top" add-on this morning. Is it working for you? It is not working for me. I see it but clicking it does not work.

I plan to work it it more and add Julian's keyword tagging later today after some work.

@txav8r

The back to the top button doesn't work for me either.

 

[Julian]

Took some time at lunch to play in the admin area and began fiddling with things a little. I changed the default (non-member timezone to Eastern time from some strange default it had), removed .zip as an attachment type, and added a couple of custom fields and enabled their display under your profile name (Make and Year, need to add Model and ??)

Lots of stuff in there I'm not familiar with....but looks really cool at this point!

 

[txav8r]

Ok...the shadow box of "back to top" that hovers in the lower right, no matter where you are isn't working...but at the very bottom of each page, you have a "contact us", "help", "home", and "Top"...that will take you to the top of the page.
