Previously it was a ~10 min window to edit posts, now it seems to have been cut down to ~2 mins which I can't say is an improvement given my poor spelling and typing skills, but there you go! The edit timescale has been added to the snagging list, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Ballinger Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I was getting on quite well exploring the search option and had tried various types of searches , probably > 20 when it refused to undertake another search, just kept the previous results. Bit odd. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Cotsford Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 It's just a learning curve. When I first used the old forum I thought it was a complete nightmare too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Manuel Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 On multi-page threads (such as this one), I can't navigate between pages. None of the 4 available methods (in screen dump below) are working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Bowlan Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I thought it was just me Gary as I am unable to select page one or the previous page. Would nice to be able to read the OP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i12fly Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) Have set up for a latest post page, it goes back 58mins to the bottom of the page. Below this it says 'load more' -it says 'loading' but doesn't load anything Also on this thread at the bottom of the page and I try to go to 'previous' or '1' nothing happens. Is it me or the system? Sorry but I don't like the new forum, it isn't working for me. Edited February 11, 2021 by i12fly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 If I select all activity and click on a thread I can page backwards and forwards but with Unread Posts paging isn't working, does it depend on how you listed posts maybe?

Phil McCavity Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) The 'Load more activity' button at the bottom of 'Unread Content' also appears not to work, it just sits there "Loading". Edit- Looks like the same problem i12fly has described.

Nigel R Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I get the 'failure to go to another page' thing, on and off. I have seen it also when navigating between pages of topics within a subforum - not just on a thread. Dropdown boxes don't always work. Sometimes the dropdown appears, but when you try and choose something (or type in a box) the dropdown disappears again, without accepting your new selection or text.

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 The tech team are making changes based on some of the observations we've forwarded so some of the difficulties may be temporary. We'll wait for them to report back and see where we are after they've finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piers Bowlan Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I found my photos but I can't click between pages 1, 2 and 3 of the photos so I can only access page 1. Just for information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Garsden Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Hi. I cannot find the different albums of photographs (one for each forum) which I presumed had been transferred from the old site? Are "Albums" now "Gallery". As far as I couldn't find categories of photographs, they all seem to have been jumbled up together. Also I did not understand the reply concerning bookmarks. I have looked and can't find them. Have they gone? Also I used to upload photographs by choosing camera as my method of recording photos. This avoided clogging up my phone memory. Has it been removed?

Peter Garsden Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Have albums been transferred across from the old site? I had several, one for each topic. When I opened Gallery which I presume is the new term for albums, I tried to find existing albums and got this window with the vital choice greyed out?

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted February 11, 2021 Author Share Posted February 11, 2021 Existing albums went (this had been publicised before the move) but your photos should all have come over. The primary purpose of the albums was for uploading pictures to be used in posts - in fact the need for this was probably the most complained about feature of the old forum! Consequently, there is no functional reason to retain the album facility but it's recognised that many have been used to it so we are working with the developers to try to allow users to move pictures into and between albums - hopefully this will be resolved soon.

Mike Blandford Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Short term workaround to move between pages or switch condensed/expanded, right click on the item and select open in new tab(or page). Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lone_Wolf Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I have had various issues since go live including log on issues, next page button not working and more. Think I'll just abandon the site for a while it's too much effort fighting it at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Manuel Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 (edited) Woooh. My navigation buttons have just started working again. Edit. Condensed / Expanded view also working again. Edited February 11, 2021 by Gary Manuel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
