Recent Features/Improvements

[Ray]

1)Enhanced Calendar shows previous , current, and next months in small form on the left. Also there is a weekly view. Also there is a  moon phase block on the right when you view the calendar as well.

2)Registration is made easier now for new members. The form displays immediate feedback instead of waiting until users hit the submit button. Green is good, Red is bad.

3)Topics started by a user link is now available under a user's profile "Show Posts Started" and also on the board under their username on one of the icons

4)A "New Topic" Button now exists when you are viewing a topic. In the past you had to go back to the board and then create a new topic. This is a covenient feature. Some people might not even noticed that it has been there for a couple of days now...


5)FlashChat installed and working. Known problems exist that it sometimes shows a user logged in when nobody is in there. It's beyond my ability to fix. Otherwise it serves it's purpose... More docs on flashchat

A few new features-

1) New private message flash
2) Improved Who's Online - Separated Guests, Users and search programs (spiders, bots)
3) Ignore users - It is in your profile options. You can specify a list of users to ignore.
4) Search within a topic - For very long topics someone may be searching for a simple piece of information and it can be helpful instead of reading every page.
5) Notify Move Topic -  Moderators and Admins now have an option to send a private message to the person who started a topic when they move it to another board.
6) Click to Expand "..." to show all pages. Good on multi-page topics.

You've been a busy little beaver.

Another addition that I should have added a long time ago.

Now when you are viewing the actual photos in the gallery you can see that there will be a yellow highlighted area which has the bulletin board code to link images here. See attached image.

Just copy this text and paste it into a post to display images.

[bgcolor=#ffff00]1) Unsend Private Message[/bgcolor]

This feature is only available if you setup your Personal Messages Options to save a copy in your outbox. See image below. Once that is done you can take advantage of this feature.

If you inadvertently send a message or make some errors or want to recall a message for whatever reason it's there in your Personal Messages Outbox as a button and text "Unsend". Keep in mind that this feature does not unsend if someone reads the message before you try to unsend it. Also it does not delete the message from your outbox. That is what the delete feature is for.

[bgcolor=#ffff00]2) Color Bar[/bgcolor]

I also added a color bar to the message reply pages... Set background color or color of text in messages easier...

One more feature I added the other day.

A paperclip shows topics which have attached files.  See attached image. Keep in mind that attachments are different than linking images.

[bgcolor=#ffff00]Media Center[/bgcolor]

I just added a Media Center Link in the "Quick Links" section. This will show attachments on posts. Of course it is not meant to replace the Gallery which is a much more comprehensive and featured program.

Media Center

[bgcolor=#ffff00]Unread Posts by Category[/bgcolor]
On the top of each category you can view unread posts by category by clicking on the links now...

[bgcolor=#ffff00]Reason For Edit[/bgcolor]
Optional. If you don't fill it out then it doesn't give a reason. If you want to edit more than once you will have to fill it out each time....

Ray, I want to say thank you for all your time, work and thought processing in getting this site up and running.

[Ray]

No big deal. Just burning some time that's all...

I second Sisu's comments...  This site is really well put together and organized.  A lot of work goes into putting up a site and keeping it going.

I redesigned the front page over the last couple of days.

If you know of a local business which is interested in advertising space we have some available in order to help pay the bills.

Thanks

Not sure if this the right place to post this, but is it possible to add someone's location when they make a post? Under their name and user status?

 Great web site.

[Ray]

Done. You might want to update your profile since it doesn't seem to be there
