I too appear to only have read access to the squad forums, and the Axis forums.I'm betting it is a forum setting where the moderator of your forum has to go in and allow replies and such.
as for the email... I am showing it "hidden" for Skuzzy, Hub, JanneK, republic, but others are showing. I went in and did choose "hide" for my account too.

JB -- I'm not seeing your email icon any more after a cntl-f5 (complete refresh of my browser window). Are you seeing mine?I am still seeing my own F5 and ctrl-f5 but I am in firefox
You're not seeing any of the contact garbage for me now? I can send myself ICQ, IM, email, PMs... maybe it just shows the user all of the stuff they would never need, while hiding it from the other users.All I have ever seen in your posts are AOL, Yahoo, view profile, your website is urbandictionary.com and the option to PM
I can't seem to hide my e-mail address either. I chose hide in preferences.I don't see your email available to me
Yes, you will always see your own email address, regardless of the settings. Others cannot see it.
Squad baords should be functioning normally now.

Hide Email Addresses doesn't seem to work. Curious, why the changes?your e-mail address is reflected as "hidden"
Skuzzy that link doesn't display a list of forums for me to select just a white page.You should see the login. Once you login, are you just getting a blank page?
Not a big deal though. I guess the moderation part needs to be worked on.
http://forums.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=93266The reason we did not move the name is this is only a temporary home for the forums until I get the server updated. Then this will all be moved.

Smileys are updated and added to post form now. You can also choose from 4 different themes in your profile.
The private forum manager is completely broken for me. I don't see anything to moderate although I have moderator powers... :cry
You should see the login. Once you login, are you just getting a blank page?good to hear! thanks!
Yes, I had to rewrite the private forum manager.

The moderator link should now be working for all the private forum folks.
In all seriousness, why the new bbs, and what was that about selectable themes? Was that just for admins, or is there something to change the layout/appearance?Profile>look and layout> current theme >>>(change)
Moderator tool is still broken for me - but not completely.:cry
Not workin right (http://members.shaw.ca/mr.fork/canmoderate.jpg)
also when i make a post it doesnt go to the post, but goes to the main forum???Sounds like...
Question...Basic moderator has the permission set of moderator for the forum, minus the add user power?Basic moderator has the ability to add and remove members to that particular forum - but nothing else (I believe). The main moderator has the ability to add basic moderators and members to the forum, plus sticky, edit, and delete topics.
Still the same and basic moderators do not see anything. Did you want me to call you so we can troubleshoot more quickly?Ok Mister Fork. I think the "Basic Moderator" should be working now. But you will need to remove any you have and than re-add them. See if it works.
I'm not able to start a new topic in the AH2 bugs forum. Is that a temporarily thing or is it an issue?Odd, but it should be fixed now.
Odd, but it should be fixed now.This is what I noticed:
Whenever i try to upload my signature it sais "error hacking attempt......"You are trying to do something in the signature that is not available.
I cannot duplicate that Mister Fork. I have tried and tried. The only button that disappears when I use the page is the "Delete" button, and that is only done when there are no more basic moderators left.Since I have a work-around, lets put this in the weird and unusual section. :D
Yes, moderators also have to be listed as users. You cannot remove the user if he/she is a moderator.

We killed off all the dead forums when we made the move.NP thanks sir.
And JB73, there is also a line feed limit of 5. So no one can SPAM the sig.
I'll consider upping the amount. Let's see how this works out first. Signatures are not supposed to be some type of novelette.
How do we moderate our own squad forums? I cant find the link.
Skuzzy it looks like PNGs still have their PNG tag after you unban em.That was intentional.
http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,228840.0.html
The links are fixed until they've been viewed; the "already clicked links" have no underline.Fixed.
I can't seem to figure out how to delete threads in private forums, I really need this in the forum I moderate.I will add delete privs to private forums today. Hmmm,..I had not noticed the 'LIST' code not being available. I'll see what I can do about that one and I will be reviewing the sig count, but it will not go much higher. Sigs got severely abused in the old board. They are not meant to be used for social commentary.
It would be nice to be able to create numbers lists as well, the [list=1] thing doesn't work anymore.
More characters for sigs would be nice. Mine were mostly links.
Hiya Skuzzy,Fixed
Cannot reply to posts in AH2 Bug Reports Forum.
Any news on not automatically loading pictures in threads? The old board had it so it just showed the links instead.
The following post, "*** " by *** has been reported by *** on a board you moderate:

There currently is no option to allow the user to set the page (number of posts per forum) size.
Well, that is unacceptable. So we have turned off the marquee feature.that must have been it, page loads fine now...

but now I'm gonna get lynched for pointing this out I bet :O :rofl
You killed my Brewster! :furious :furious
We had an ad run on History channel and it seems to have drawn a crowd.
Well, that is unacceptable. So we have turned off the marquee feature.
Skuzzy - is there a language filter? If so, is it turned on?
As a follow-up, the forums are "perky" again. Seems to have been temporary.
Interesting changeover...I thought you guys were a vBulletin system? No upgrade option available via them? They've been pretty good for my needs. The db I had to convert over from was a scripting nightmare for them :cool:
Any chance of reducing the size of the header in the future?
on the home page of the BBS there is a link (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php?action=recent) to have the most recent post
I find this a bit to cluttered is it possible to have like in the former BBS the threads having the most recent activity ?
http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/pm/index.php is the admin page for you to add/remove members of your private forum.
I am working on the integration into the new board.
All I get is this:
Which forum? Odd, I thought I had that bug fixed yeseterday.
My one irk about the new forum is that they no longer have a link to the hompage.
with all these new forum goodies and stuff, sure would be nice to implement that all Forum Users are required to include
their in game gameid. and make it where the user can not register or post without it.
As a side note, if someone edits their reply in a thread and it was the last reply, it shows as 'new'.
My one irk about the new forum is that they no longer have a link to the hompage.
All I get is this:
Basic moderators should now be functional.
In your Profile->Look and Layout Preferences, you can now set the posts per page limits.:rock :salute :aok
I mistakenly double posted today. I dont see the "delete this post" button anymore. Maybe I am just missing it?
You are not missing anything. If you double post, just edit the post and say so.
I don't either, :lol
That is going to get REAL interesting.
No option to delete your own post, 5 minutes later, when you decide you should not have said that........ :eek:
Not that I have ever been guilty. :D
We evaluated many options for a bulletin board and this one came the closet to meeting all the requirements we had.
Next to the date in the header is an ICON for reducing the size. You can do this to categories in the forum listing as well. The board will remember those settings.
Straffo, try clocking on the "Show most recent posts" in the header of the board. I think it is what you are looking for.
The "HOME" button takes you back to the HTC home page.
Skuzzy,
I love this green theme and would like to use it on
my squad's web site with this SMF Forum software.
Can you tell me where to get it and what its called?
Thanks

alot of posts I look at have all words like this, the entire post... not the whole thread, just some posts.
Is there any plan on increasing the sig char limit?
I removed thestrke-through code as it the <S> (salute) was being mis-intepreted by the board.

I did not know the option for sorting most recent was borked. I';; look into this today.
The following errors occurred when trying to save your profile:
* The following BBC is not allowed within your signature: code, ftp, flash, html, move, php, s, shadow.
Which line? I cannot see anything wrong with the sig either.

No file size limit on member avatars. Some upwards of 400KB. Old limit was 32kb or so. I don't mind decent sized animations (40-50kb) but a few are excessive.
how do i get to a higher member rank( gold,silver,copper, etc.)The more posts you have, the higher your member rank is on the bulletin board. Just like in-game rank, it doesn't mean a thing.
If this is your first visit since we changed the board, at some point, you will want to hit the "Mark All Read" button at the top or bottom of the main forum listings.
This forum does a much better job of tracking what you have actually read. Any posts added to a thread after you read them will have a "new" icon attached to the thread, and cleared after you read the thread.
The old board used a simply timer. Once it expired, all the threads in a forum got marked read, whether you read them or not.
Well if you mark all the post as "read", then the only ones that have updates will be the ones with the "new" icon on them. Seems pretty easy to me. The main title icons (the HTC symbol) are lite after an update to that section is made, but I only look at a few of the mains and a couple of private sections so its pretty easy to keep track.
At that time, I will do a mass update of the locally embedded links to change them so they will all work. At least, that is the plan.Skuzzy can you include the old syntax too, before the forums moved to forums.hitechcreations.com from hitechcreations.com/forums ?

You could subscribe to the threads you read, there should be a list where only the threads you've subscribed to appear.
You have got to be kidding me. You guys are going to start picking at each other on a thread that Skuzzy started, in order for people to talk about "New Bulletin Board Questions or Issues". :lol
So basically any question or issue, regarding the new BB system, is what this thread is for right?
I guess the O'club is a little slow?
I'm aware of the 'Mark All Read' option and as far as the cutsey little "New" icon,
that is of absolutely NO use when I'm trying to find threads I have been following.
One USED to be able to simply visually scan the headers and those threads that
you had read would have a different hue that those that you haven't read and
could care less about regardless of how many "New" thingies there are.
The only way I can ID the threads I have been following now is to figuratively
'lift my leg' and 'mark' them by cluttering up the thread with a useless post
so that the little folder thingy shows I've been there....
The 'old way' was, IMO, a far better method, as is generally the case with most
things these days. Newer and flashier and more whiz-bang widgets isn't necessarily
the best way to go....
=GB=
I don't know, where I come from a request is phased more like.... "Skuzzy, would it be possible to set up the boards so that a person would be able to follow a thread they were following by an identifying icon?" Instead we get the bolded comments above, not a real "request", but some snide comments and and a backhand knock on the new boards. You can get more flies with honey, but you can work the "vinegar" route.
Good luck with that! :aok
