Since we have not had an answer yet to the large fonts of the headers - Are you going to change this to a more reasonable size - or at least make it customizable? It really looks horrible on a 4K screen - zoom in/out is not an option since the text font will reduce as well and worse - it affects all other websites which have normal fontsize

The "Report Abuse" button (orange with an exclamation mark in a circle) doesn't have any helpful little pop-up hint to tell what it is (all the other buttons do)

I will have them add that pop-up - good point. Thanks

We usually give it 30 days with the Community before we make any changes there has only been a few to dislike the font size .

...still waiting for the ephemeral "Link To This Post" button to reappear...

I'm still getting just a dark grey square (Firefox 33.0.2, all plugins and addons disabled)

This might have something to do with Flash. Copying to a clipboard is actually extremely complicated and most libraries that handle this use some sort of flash/javascript mixins. I'd make sure flash is installed through your browser. Note: The flash plugin must be installed on the browser in use.

On a side note: AdBlocker will block .swf files if set to do so and sadly a .swf actually replaces the button behind the scenes. You can see this if you right click the button, it will actually give you an Adobe Flash Player menu instead of basic browser menu like the buttons beside it.

Why are you using flash to do this? I'm probably not the only person who browses with all plug-ins (including Flash) disabled... ...or maybe I am !?!?

A simple link in each post that link's to that post is simple HTML (e.g. the number at the top right corner of the post here http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthread/40538/P30/#709239 or http://forum.runtimedna.com/showthread.php?94377-November-2014-Theme-Vote&p=856787&viewfull=1#post856787 - yeah, they probably use PHP or some such to create the link; but I get served plain HTML).

The user just clicks on the post number and then cuts-and-pastes the URL from the browser's address bar.

Using flash purely to put the URL into the clipboard seems akin to using a sledgehammer to crack a nutshell.

Additionally - why don't you test for the dependency before rendering the button,  Both iOS and Android do not support Flash, as an example. So the button fails to render, it's a broken box.

With flash enabled I see the 'Copy Link' button and it works fine, even with AdBlock. So this is no longer a problem for me  - at least it's quicker than opening the page source and searching for the anchor (even taking into account the time to check the Flash plugin's up-to-date before enabling it).

(and I get the added bonus of a good laugh every time I want to link to a post - and laughter is the best medicine!)

But I still think a flash-free solution would be better

And I'd still love to see a way to bookmark/link to a specific post

Not a bad idea. I'll look into making this easier for you guys. Try to get it later today. It is possible now but you have to kinda know the anchor tags.  UPDATE: I added a 'Copy Link' button that will allow you to copy the link to that specific post. Then you can use that for whatever.

This was implemented by request, we will be more efficient next time placing changes into a later release at a later date. Sorry for any inconvenience. 

To answer WHY FLASH? Without flash, it's simply not possible in most browsers. The user's clipboard is a security-relevant resource since it could contain things like passwords or credit card numbers. Thus, browsers rightly don't allow Javascript access to it (some allow it with a warning shown that the user has confirm, or with signed Javascript code, but none of that is cross-browser).

Checking for dependency is not that easy either haha. We will revisit this at a later date giving us time to way the options. Thanks, again for the patience.

Are we not supposed to see (or navigate to) all the pages in the thread from the main forum section anymore?

This thread has two pages at the time of this post, but I have to go into the thread to be able to navigate to the second one.

In the Poser forum, the thread "Possible Poser 10/PP2014 Bugs" has navigation for the first 2 pages in the forum section, and is actually 8 pages long.

Kind of makes navigating more difficult, and flies in the face of the ideal of "ease of use."

Checking for dependency is not that easy either haha. 

I disagree, a quick Google search yielded this link, which seems to work correctly (Tested IE11, FF33, Chrome 38, Android Chrome, iOS 8 Phone, iOS tablet). Also, I really dislike the new wysiwg editor. It's silly I have to open dev tools and modify the HTML in the editable div to get the formating like I want it.

@Fenier thank you again for your patience and helpful feedback. As I said before, we will revisit at a later date. We have it documented for next release.

Haven't been around in a while due to personal reasons, so I'm just now seeing this. It looks pretty bad on a smartphone. The main forum and sub-forums are like this. The actual posts seem fine.

Samsung Galaxy S5 running Chrome.

Other than this, pretty much the same issues as everyone else, namely the font size. It's overwhelmingly huge on 1920x1080.

I don't like the massive font size for the titles either, but that's probably a matter of personal taste.

However, I have two major issues with the forums as they are now, which are so serious that they significantly reduce the usefulness of the forums to me: 

1. All references to Renderosity forum threads that were posted elsewhere don't work anymore. If you try to follow those links you end up at the forum topic list.

2. The search is completely broken. Just recently I tried to search for threads on Poser materials, using the search terms "gold" and later "water", and ended up with a long list of completely irrelevant threads, and the ones I was looking for didn't turn up. 

Hi esha,

We are aware of issue number 1 and our techs are looking into it but we are also not sure if that functionality will return.   As for issue 2 did you try selecting the Poser forum first and then search the specific words?  I tried it that way and did  receive results.

I recently deleted a double-post* to this forum page http://www.renderosity.com/mod/forumpro/?thread_id=2886654&page_number=2

Now every time I go to that page I see this:

Please DON'T suggest that I clear the browser cache -  I'm viewing other sites on other tabs and don't want to get logged out

(I'm using Firefox 34.0)

*I say double post but it's far more complicated than that and it got me really infuriated! I wrote a new post, posted it, got the green "successfully posted" banner at the top, but still had the 'edit post' screen with my text in the edit box, and no sign of the new post being there. Even when I did a normal page reload, or opened the page in a new tab. I tried to post several times with the same effect. Then I did a forced page refresh (F5) and saw that my post had been posted three or four times. When I tried to delete the spurios posts I had a similar problem - had to hit F5 after deleting to actually see the result.

There is also something really, really screwy going on with the post editing - but I can't get to the bottom of it, and can't give a sensible summary of it here - it might be related to having different pages of the same thread open in tabs ?...

Hello, I hope it's ok to ask something about the Holiday Contest here!

Is it possible to submit in more than one category? Could I submit in photography, writing and 3D?

Thank you!

(hermio - I think you can enter as many categories as you want, but just one entry in each category)

Back on topic for this thread - (edit: posting this post worked fine, so I haven't really got to the bottom of the criteria for the problem...)

I now enter a reply to a forum thread (using the 'Quote' option from an existing post), hit 'Post', but I don't get a green 'post submitted successfully' message and my post doesn't show up. At least not until I do a hard refresh (F5) - Firefox 34.0 , all plugins disabled (no flash).

Thank you ! :)

Can someone help with searching the forum? 

I'd like to search for a specific phrase (such as the words an app uses to describe a feature).  If I use quotes (like google search allows), that breaks the search. 

When I search for the phrase (without quotes), I get a bunch of individual posts that have no relation to the phrase since (I believe) the search is looking at each specific word in the search for a match.

I really rely on the search function so that I don't annoy people with a question that may have already been answered.

Thanks!

I use Google to search the forums. For example, using site:http://www.renderosity.com/mod/forumpro "poser rigging" in Google will give me all of the Rendo forum threads that contain the phrase 'poser rigging'.

I'm a bit hesitant to complain but if that's the only solution, I'll need to reconcile that the forum has limited search ability.

I appreciate the fast response with a solution, thanks Vaskania!

Don't know how I got this when I was replying to a thread - I was just typing text and moving the mouse, so I guess it was an inadvertant mouse-click or key combination. Can't get rid of it (I guess dragging an image would do it, but I don't want to add any image to this post).  Windows 7, Firefox 34.0, all plugins disabled, a couple of extensions enabled.
