I am not understanding which message reply box you refer to? On my screen the reply box in a thread is below the posts??

Wysiwyg reverses the order of posts in the thread (newest post first) and unfortunately this functionality is not part of the core Xenforo software so I had to install an add-on to do it, and the result is somewhat inelegant. You can give it a go yourself by selecting the option in "Preferences".
 

Thanks for the reply. Personally if I'm to post additional educational content then I'd prefer it to be available only to members. I see 10x more guests than members reading the forum. I know many of these guests are members. They don't log in because they can read the posts without doing so. I do it also.

Continuing as is will lead to stagnation. Respected members are posting less often. I miss them.
How does ASF plan to differentiate itself from the others?
 

Hi Peter, I'm not sure how members not choosing to log in to read posts will lead to stagnation. The advantages of logging in are being able to search the forums, view attachments, private message other members as well as accessing other forum features that those who remain unregistered are unable to take advantage of. There are definite advantages to registering and participating as a member.

I see your point about providing additional member benefits though and I am willing to open up a private members only forum as an experiment. In the past I have doubted that a private forum would see much activity but I am happy to be proven wrong. I will set it up this evening.

OK, well I just went ahead and created it. Can everyone see it?

Yep, can see it here

Great opportunity to add some extra content to ASF. My suggestion would be that it be trading/investment related content only. I have a few ideas but if it just becomes another general chat forum with the same intolerant postings in it then I'd lose interest very quickly. Just my 2c.
 
Joe i searched for ALL Aristocrat yesterday expecting the ALL thread to be in the first couple of results and was surprised to see it on page 2, also how do i do bullet points and how do i make an image display like on the old forums?

Thanks

1. Check the box that says, "Search titles only" and it will be in the #1 position.
2. For bullet points, click the "Unordered list" icon immediately to the right of "Alignment".
3. When you upload an image file you should be given the option of inserting it as a thumbnail or a full size image. Choose the full size image option if you'd like it to see more of it in the post.

Please let me know if you have any further questions or require any further clarification.

Yeah, that's one of the last few remaining bugs... well, of the ones that I already know about.

I'll get the designer onto it as soon as he's back from his Christmas/New Year break.
 
Anyone use Firefox and find they can't post since the upgrade? All Add-ons disabled, cache cleared, cookies, restart PC etc etc.

I'm posting this using Chrome but far prefer FF as a browser.
 
Hi GB,
I'm using Firefox exclusively; several add-ons, pop-up blocker, cookie restriction (authorised sites only) and many more. As you see, I can post and have uploaded heaps of files as well.

Platform is Windoze 10, kept updated; AVG (free version) and Malwarebytes (for control scans)
 
At last, you made some serious changes Joe. Job well was done.
I could not log in for a couple of days on and off. But the new look is sexier. The fonts are louder and 'like' is similar to Facebook but I dare say, that will reduce the ability to comment or know what it means. Traditionally human is lazy.
However, like any sex doll they appealing and their functionality depends on how much they are good at bed !!!
So as I use the new site I will share my experience. But at the moment, Happy New Year to Joe and all of my ASF colleagues. I am heading off to overseas for a three weeks holiday with family in cold front of the largest democracy of the world.
 
Joe, attempting to upload an image into a thread, I found that the Image button just asks for a URL, so I'm a bit lost on how to upload from computer as before.

Also, there doesn't seem to be Quote button, although posters can add their own tags. However when Replying to a post, there is an auto quote feature applied.
