XenForo 2.1 update

[PeopleAreStrange]

Thank you for changes 1 & 2, Magnethead.

The option for "Signature" used to be where you say it is, but it's no longer there for me.

I'm sticking with Whisper 2 --- it's easier on my eyes.

Me too. I've tried all the others

Trying the shades of grey

@fury Anything you know of? I'm at a loss...

This is definitely something I want to figure out.

Couldn't color the pin, but they are now separated from general content. It looks different on each theme, but there is a separator.

@fury I used this guide: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/making-pinned-content-stand-out-in-the-forum-view.166248/

I checked your permissions, i dont even see anything that would block signature.

Out of curiosity, what happens if you go there manually? https://racing-forums.com/account/signature

I wasn't able to edit my signature either. Found it, fixed it. I guess XenForo 2.x had some new permissions for them and they default to off

 

[donthaveanickname]

Would it be possible to reduce the size of the signatures?

 

[Reck]

@Magnethead @fury Is it possible to make edits permanent and not just up to x amount of minutes?

Sometimes I’d like to add to my posts or edit them hours later. Don’t ask me why. Lol

I remember we had them set to like 15 minutes, because people were arguing then changing their posts or something like that...i dont remember exactly.

I think what I did worked. Please verify.

I remember that at first the time limit was long. Members would change their post to prove they didn't say whatever the day before. Led to
huge blow-ups among members.

I can't see any signatures now.

 

[Magnethead]

I can't see any signatures now.

This is really wierd. I can see some but not others.

All I did is set a 200x300px maximum on sigpics

@fury are we imagining things?

Thank you both. I'm able to access my signature now.

I’d love to see a screen shot of this board back in 2001 when Paul started it.

Back then, Queen @TexasRaceLady "only" had 4,005 posts! Now she has 30,500 and counting.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Oh, dear Lord, do those bring memories. LOL

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Wasn’t here for the fist shot but I was for the second one. Forgot about all the categories we had.

I find I have to view the pages in landscape instead of portrait (On my iPhone) or I can’t access all the features that used to be available in both.

Also - The color scheme adjust is an improvement.

Which features specifically? Everything should still be there, albeit hidden in context menus.

 

[StandOnIt]

This place is working really slick for me. Thanks for the improvements.
