This isn’t really a big issue, but, why can’t we edit our blog titles?

We can, but there is an extra step involved. Once you go in to edit mode on the first post of the thread, you have to click on “go advanced” to be able to change the title. This didn’t work at first, but Sheldon fixed it quickly. ![]()

This isn’t a bug, but I’m missing the “view your posts” link at top of forum home page. It always helps me to get back to a recent thread which I have been in.
Sheldon –
I keep getting the following error message in various threads.
FYI: I’m running on a Apple iBook w/ Mac OS/X 10.3.9, and I’m using Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3.
Thanks, Sheldon!! 
I’m not receiving emails with replies to posts. Is it coming form a different email address, other than forum@knittinghelp.com? If so, my spamblocker may have bounced them.
Arielluria, your subscriptions were probably reset in the migration…if you go into your Control Panel you can make sure you are set to receive emails.
Hey Sheldon, I’m having problems with posts not staying marked read (from both clicking on them and reading them, and from using the “mark forum read” tool), and with the main page telling me that a forum has new posts on it, when it doesn’t. Is this possibly a browser issue? (IE 6 on Windows XP) or a cookies/cache/etc issue?
[COLOR=Red]That is true. Subscribed threads from the old forum do not carry over to the new forum. While we were able to import most of the things from the old forum, so things were impossible.
As for marked as read forums, etc. There was some quirkiness earlier today with the forum that could be the culprit. It could also be a cookie issue, if your computer still has cookies stored from the old forum.

I was actually just coming to say the same thing. i just marked the general forum read, went out of the site, came back, and they were all listed as new messages again. The other forum used to do that once or twice a day but so far it doesn’t seeeem to be doing any good to mark them as read. :shrug:
Where is the button to mark posts as read?
Michelle
Okay. Cleared cookies and temp files. Closed all browsers. clicked “mark read” closed browser again, came back… all forums showing as unread again. 
where are the url buttons?
ohh, its “insert link” isnt it? that is soo cool!:cheering:
when viewing a thread, I find if I click the “back” button the thread is still listed as “unread” in that forum. But if I view the thread and click directly on the forum name at the top of the page… “general knitting” or whatever forum I am in, then it registers what I have and haven’t read.
it’s a bit frustrating tho. At first I was like WHYYY!
I really should leave this to Sheldon to answer, but this is the way that I understand it. When you use the back button you are literally going back to where you were and not reloading the page. Since the page is not reloading it is not updating with the new information of you having seen the thread.
Clear as mud?:shock:
Hi Sheldon,
I was just cleaning out old messages in my “Private Messages” inbox, and noticed that every message I have received from [B]brownishcoat[/B] is posted twice in my inbox.
Hi… this isn’t a glitch as such but I have to admit for my eyes I find the ‘red’ of the unclicked on titles to threads or forums really bright and worrying to my eyes. I gave it a couple of days thinking I would get used to it but I tend to be a little colour sensitive so is there a way to remove the red on my browser (or tone it down) OR must I simply click down all the titles to get rid of the red? (assuming a new thread in a forum will ‘light up’ the red again).
Love the new upgrade–thanks!
Knitaholic:heart:
it seems like the “mark forum read” thing seems to be working now! Woo hoo!
I have to say that I agree with Susan though. I knew there was something that was making it hard for me to look at the site and wasn’t sure what it was until she pointed out the thing with the Red. Not sure what would be a better color choice though
