If this new format eliminates the occasional situations where the photos are too large and the text too wide, leading to going back and forth with the slide bar, that's a big improvement.

I think the font for the text is too light and should have more of a contrast with the gray background. 

A minor annoyance is having to reply, "OK" to confirm that I want to mark a section (General Discussion, Technical, Cars For Sale, etc.) as read.

I just tried bolding the font on a sentence (while using the quick message feature) and got a bracket with a small b at each end of what I tried to highlight.

All in all, a great job was done to update to a newer system!  Thank you, Stefan!

Sorry, can't help you there yet. I am going to be busy getting things ready for the BOD at the Grand Nationals, so it will be a while before I can research this question

To upload a photo from mobile:

User Action (under thread title on the right) -> Reply

Under the text box there is a down arrow to the left of "Attachments and other options". If you tap the arrow and choose file you can upload a photo from your phone.

Attached should be a photo of my car at the Greenwich Concours today uploaded from my phone.

The problem with the screens frequently and at random not completing has been identified by the SMF developers. A resolution will be provided in the next 'bug fix' update. In the meanwhile, please use the 'Refresh' button in your browser, Ctrl+R or the F5 key (for some browsers).

Sorry, folks for getting your hopes up, the resolution that is coming is for a different issue. Still working on 'incomplete screens'.

Quote from: sbartelski on May 31, 2022, 11:57:28 AMI am pleased to announce that the update of the Forum software seems to be successful. Instead of just a security patch update I was able to upgrade to the latest version of the software. This does include some changes, including a new look.

Please contact me immediately via PM or email (webmaster@cadillaclasalleclub.org) if you encounter any issues or have any questions.

Stefan Bartelski  I am okay with the new update of the Forum;  just a little practice here and there will get all of us back on line. Good job Stefan!  EAM

Thank you Stefan.  I posted a question today  June 15th under Corleones on the discussion forum and was wondering why all the posts from today say "new" except for my post? Just curious . Thanks

That would be because it is your own post, and the way the Forum is set up is to show New Posts as posts that are new to you.

As you placed the post, it is not New to you, but, when someone replies to your post, then it will come up as a New one, indicating that you haven't seen it when you look the next time.

Trust this explains it?

I don't know what it is about the picture upload button.  But every time ime I hit it my phone thinks I am trying to look up that word.

Any ideas on the forum button formating on why it might be doing this.

This is why I am so disappointed. Supposedly posted on July 15 from Detroit. No tracking or insurance.
It may be still in the mail... but I've bought a few other eBay items that have all turned up in a couple of weeks.
