Quote from: Solar on May 13, 2021, 02:51:26 PMI think you first have to set the time on the forum, default Pacific Time.
We had this issue last time, then everyone can set their own time after that.

They're set to UTC...

Nice!  Looks great on my iPhone 10.  Now I can really spam.   :biggrin:

Quote from: taxed on May 13, 2021, 12:54:35 AMSorry it took so long, but I kept getting pulled away all damn week.  Better late than never.

A very big thank you to @IAmGrammy for working on the new CPF logo.  I really love it.

I'll be tidying things up, so if you get any errors or something doesn't look right, please PM them to me.  The PMs should be at the very top of the page in that top menu bar.  Besides getting used to looking at the very top for PMs and profile settings, things are still where they were before from what I can tell.

You'll need to re-upload your avatar if you had one.

We're now on https, so we have a little more security.

I'll be integrating Rumble, GabTV, BitChute, and any other social media embedding for alt-social media.  Tweets and YouTube may or may not work yet, but I'll get those working ASAP.

One option I really like is the mentions option.  Like Twitter and other social media, if you '@' somebody, they'll get notified that you mentioned them in a post.

I think that's it.  If anyone has any complicated questions, Walks is available 24x7.

We now have post drafts.

If you are writing something and need to save it for later, you'll see a "Save Draft" button next to "Preview" and "Post".

I like the color & contrast, it's easy on the eyes!
Text size is also better, but the Font isn't as crisp...?

This is Arial, it just jumps right out at ya. - I use this mostly at work, so I'm biased.
This is Verdana, also pretty clear. - this font looks really easy to read.

Is the font selectable to the reader, like a default setting?

...and one other thing... WZ has this up/down vote thing, didn't like it at first, but do now.  It's a way of saying, "Yeah, I agree!", without posting a note, just click and the counter goes up.  If you hover over it, the names pop out.  a nice feature, if it's just a soft-switch.

That's the very reason we don't do it.

understandable -   Still playing around, looking it all over, the posting Youtube/image/links/email is a nice improvement.   

Does the "insert a table" for keeping the same original format, tabs, spacing, etc...? or would something like that fall under "preformatted text"?   The "float" thing ... looks really interesting too!

You guys/gals did a LOT of work on this, nice work that took a pretty good layout to a higher/better level.
I'm really impressed - the wait was worth it.  With my luck... I'll wind up getting really busy with work, and hardly have the time to enjoy your handiwork!   :sad: 

Congratulations!  I think you've got a winner - without all the "clutter", and best of all, the ease & simplicity of navigating still shines!   Few, and I mean this, very few places are laid out intuitively, so navigating feels so "natural".  This has a really *nice* feel - speaking as a former BBS SYSOP who wrote his own software - getting that *right* is difficult, and you guys hit a homerun with this!

A cool feature I discovered that I like: when you're making a post, check out the green four "leafs" at the top right on your editor icon bar...
