Thanks for the e-bots! But since the prize for a job well done is more jobs: put the reply on a copletely new page put the smilies on the page with the reply and make them clickable build in the ability to make individual threads read, not only the whole forum. Or fix the bug with the icon load. and fix the editor! It's probably the only editor that doesn't work with all the bigger browsers and you had to use it.

- You can click reply to go to a completely new page, or you can use the reply at the bottom of the page. After releasing, we had an overwhelming request for an additional reply box to be at the bottom, so there it will stay. 2) Smilies are a feature of ours, the reply box is an external resource, so the two cannot work together. Smilies cannot be clickable. They will remain the way they are. 3) Because of database performance and storage issues, we cannot physically make individual threads read. There are no bugs with the icon load. It's all working properly. 4) Again, as I have said in a dozen other threads (not being snappy here, just stating fact), the editor is an external resource. It is not something we wrote and any modifications have to come from the developers. It is written to perform as equally as possible on Firefox, IE, Netscape, and Mozilla. I'd say those are the bigger browsers. Support in the next version (hopefully out in August) will hopeully work with Opera and Safari. If you're referring to the "security settings" issue on FireFox, this is a problem with FireFox that the authors of the editor cannot work around.

Great that the ebots are finally fixed.
But the "Mark thread read" thing MUST be possible though since every other php based forum I've ever seen has it...
Personally, if I was planning to buy forum software, I wouldn't buy this when what I'd consider a key feature was missing.
But at least the ebots are fixed. Thanks for that :m_grin:

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
Using Poser since 2002. Currently at Version 11.1 - Win 10.
Opera 9 supposedly has a better support of RT editors. And still doesn't work with fck. It's like he intentionally sabotaged it. Also, afaik, it still doesn't work with IE 7, but I don't have it here to test it. I can understand the problem with individual threads, but the icons don't work properly. When you've read a thread, the icons should switch to the gray ones, like they do when you mark a forum read, right? Well, they don't. As to the smilies, that guy simply doesn't know what he's doing. It's a wonder why the vbulletin editor works (with clickable smilies!) and fck doesn't.

I second that, thanks for the ebot thing, but now please fix the mark when read.

Just open up the smilie window, and copy/paste the text under each smilie face into the editor you are typing in 
would look like : smile : {with no spaces}

No, no Adavyss. I didn't want to give you the impression that the management here is "pathetic". I think they're doing great things with Renderosity. But, unfortunately, we had already gone over budget on the forums. I didn't do them off the clock because I disagreed with not having permission. I did them off the clock because they were getting on my nerves too and I just wanted them fixed. But I completely understand why I was told that it wasn't a priority when we're also working on getting the galleries and a dozen other things converted and out for you to use.
-Nicholas
Nick, there are 2 ways to go over budget,
- employees are working badly
- the budget was wrong
In both cases, it's poor management.
When something is getting on clients nerves, it's poor management to refuse to listen and correct the problem.
When all the work force is mobilized on a new project before the previous one is fully operational, it's also poor management.
Fortunately, there are still people like you with common sense.
Thanks again for fixing the ebots

It's like it was with the old forum. You get one notification per thread unless you visit the thread again, at which time you reset the clock and will get another if someone else replies after that.
It's better than getting a reply notification for ever single post made in the thread.

One thing I forgot. How about we get the link as the text for the link instead of "here"? For instance, http://www.renderosity.com/ instead of "click here." That way those of us who try to protect themselves won't have to use HTML in their mail programs and open up to spammers and what not. Any mail program that I tried turns a link inserted into a mail clickable.

I like the new style and look of the forums. I am having problems with the speed on thrying to enter any of the threads, though. My one big complaint is the fact that I no longer get the newsletter. Did you discountinue it or is there a problem with it? And befor you ask, Yes, I have checked the box to recieve the newsletter. I even went into my profile and unchecked then saced the changes, then went back and changed it back. Is there some one I sould contact or something else I can do?
You'll probably have to talk to one of the staff about the newsletter, I got mine only a day or two ago.
Come visit us at RenderGods.
Ignore the shooty dog thing.
revric check to make sure your mail server hasn't changed sometimes they do and consider it spam,and check to make sure you accept mail from renderosity. If that isn't the problem get with Clint he can check it out on this end.

Has the default PHP style sheet been changed so that the active links and visited links on the forum lists are different colors? I fixed that for myself on my style sheet. It makes a huge difference. I am not confused about what threads I have read and which are the newer ones any more. I'm sure it would be an easy fix, and so many people would benefit.
Fractals will always amaze me!

After having our meeting last week, we have spent the last several days upgrading the forums. During times things have been ULTRA slow the last couple days, it's been while we were performing maintenance on the database tables. We have made the following changes:
We hope these changes make using the forums more pleasurable for our members. In the future, we will certainly add more features, such as searching within search results (this is a personal goal, but don't count on it until at least the community conversion is complete). If you have any problems or encounter any errors that you believe are a result of the new changes, please post those concerns HERE and we will address them as soon as possible. Thanks
