It seems that the software won't allow an entire word to be capitalized in a thread title.

SENS became Sens in this title:

OK.. that was a "stop shouting" feature tried for a bit... have gone back to regular now.

[Lazarus Long]

I just noticed this post
http://www.imminst.o...o...st&p=212178

Is the elusive quote bug haunting us again?

[Lazarus Long]

I think lucid just typed a command wrong now that I look more closely. He has [href=http in front and [*/quote] at the end. Or is that a reference command I am simply unfamiliar with?

My understanding is that the command should be consistent to open AND close it to work.

[Bruce Klein]

That's right... should look like:

[quote]quoted text[/quote]

[Brainbox]

The topic rating is not visible anymore in the active topic list or in any other overview.
It maybe a good tool to increase quality consciousness if it is visible in topic overviews.

[Bruce Klein]

OK... i changed the visibility to be only when there were more than at least 2 ratings... but have changed back for now, until members b/c more familiar/use it more.

[Liquidus]

Is it just me, or are all the graphics (quote/reply/top/fastreply/etc...) and emoticons 'dimmed' out. It almost looks like the transparency for these graphics were cut in half (almost to suggest that they are disabled, but are not). Just thought I'd point it out.

ps. once all requests/bugs are addressed, a shoutbox on the main forum page would be cool.

Thanks, G Snake... buttons were deemphasized to allow more focus on post content.

[AdamSummerfield]

I cannot seem to change my avatar. I have tried changing it to an image of Albus Dumbledore, but it will not change from the image of my own shadowed face. If you can see my avatar as Albus Dumbledore, please say.

Also, all the 'buttons' e.g. "+QUOTE" ""REPLY" "^ TOP" "FAST REPLY" "ADD REPLY" "NEW TOPIC" are all faded as if the topic is closed, yet I can still use the buttons. It's just annoying.

Is there any way anyone can aid me with my avatar problem? With it being on my own control board and all...
Thanks.

OK, I'm not getting the selection box in the screen shot when I click on Selective. Is there something else I should do to get the box, or is this a curious bug? I'm running IE/WinXP. (very cutting edge, I know...)

[Bruce Klein]

AdamS, looks like your avatar is working... and thanks for the feedback on the buttons.

Niner, javascript for "Selective" doesn't work w/ IE.

[niner]

Niner, javascript for "Selective" doesn't work w/ IE.

Any chance it will be fixed for IE, or should I break down and install FF? (Isn't IE far and away the most common browser?)

[Bruce Klein]

Niner... no time soon to fix for IE. Howver, we will have a a few standard Active Toipcs Selective links avail, planned by yrs end.

Btw, just installed a Gallery (avail to ImmInst Full Members).

[Athanasios]

Am I missing something? Is the constitution and user agreement no longer displayed?

Currently it appears to be missing. Thanks for pointing it out. Hopefully it will be up soon along with other parts of the site (front page, etc). If you have any questions on the the user acreement feel free to PM me or another member of leadership.

[eternaltraveler]

I've made a topic with imminst's constitution for viewing in the meantime

This is the link I've had in my bookmarks for a while now. Now it says 404 not found. Is it me or was there something changed about the site and I need to change how I access the page?

Hopefully just me, cause then it's trivial to change how I access the site.

[Bruce Klein]

Not just you... that's a new bug i need to fix. Thanks for pointing this out Traclo.

A feature I liked in the old forum was that if you edited a post you made immediately after posting it (within like 10 minutes) and before someone else responded then there would be no editing text at the bottom of your page.

Reason to do so:
*Makes posts cleaner by removing editing info which results from fixing a typo etc...

Not a big deal, but maybe not a bad thing to put on the to-do list. Cheers.

[eldar]

Going to http://www.imminst.org returns a 404 not found error.
I guess this is the same as previous one, since it forwards to http://www.imminst.o....html&blogid=9

If it's hard to fix, maybe temporarily forward straight to forum, else people might not figure out that the forum is still working.

[modelcadet]

Added Active Topics link back to top link bar.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned, but is it possible to have the active topics be a stable link? Until there's the potential for an RSS feed, that link is gonna remain in my bookmarks so I can compulsively check these forums

[Bruce Klein]

Hi Modelcadet... yes, the aim is to keep the Active Topics link stable for all ImmInst topics going forward.

Btw, here's also the RSS...

http://www.imminst.o...act=rssout&id=1 ImmInst Active Topics

[Bruce Klein]

We can also create RSS feeds of individual forums, or a combinations of forums... let me know.

Added to the list of mods to be added... sad, this was not part of new forums sys.

[eternaltraveler]

allow users to delete their accounts
http://mods.invision...ndex.php/f/7490

bad idea.

[Bruce Klein]

I think this just allows the deletion of the member profile (not posts/topics), which has been a requested feature from a number of members in the past... something that admins could do, but this would give the power closer to members.

[eternaltraveler]

i still think it's a bad idea.

everything else looks good though.

[forever freedom]

Sorry for hitting the same button again, but i haven't seen the post per day count go back to 2 (3 preferentially) digits. Is it that hard to do it?
