I've just rated a post with a 'Like' and wanted to also give it a 'Funny' but we are not allowed more than 1 rate it seems. A retrograde step, methinks

15.29hrs and the forum is slow to load then announces 'High stress' and refuses to load.

Also, clicking on my pics always used to enlarge them but now that doesn't work

Country flags now installed. The slow period and then fast noted. We are going to nip it in the bud at some point.

I wonder if it defaults to (or is set to) unread since last visit? It only showed 3 this time (including this one). Browser/device doesn't change it. Shame if that's the case, all unread is far more useful IMO.

I wonder if anyone can help.  I was looking for my draft posts and they are not there.  But I noticed a notice that drafts will be deleted automatically after seven days.  This is a new feature.  Does this mean that my draft posts have all gone?  I had a good few of these because I often work on a post for several weeks (or months!).

With many thanks and all good wishes.

Sorry John, I am pretty sure that these have gone.  I only turned 'drafts' on this morning.

Still having trouble loading photos add image to post upload to gallery.  Having to obtain jpeg thing and cut copy paste when asked much easier before. Annoyingly have to take photos and save then use whatever bb code , cut paste. Might be a secondary thing we can figure out one day. Also annoying having to save to a photos folder and follow a way Chris at dawlish Warren told me thankfully . Appreciate the help and hard work Chris and Jean aka tank and ngf tech are doing

I have to agree with @Newportnobby there are a few times recently I have wanted to do the same, definitely a backward step

I wonder what it is you're doing differently?  It works fine for me every time, exactly the same as it did on the old version of the forum.

That should be fixed now.   :thumbsup:

I think I've found a way. Just takes time and getting used to this. New forum new era. Not technical and need step by step guide. Takes time

I think, the 'Updated Topics' button is just for those threads that you're subscribed to.  So for me, that's any thread that I write it, as I automatically ask for notifications of replies.

The 'Unread Posts' seems to be any new posts that you haven't read.

Totally agree although I've never been happy using a phone for the forum as constantly enlarging the content is a real PITA

As I've said about 5 times to you, I'm working on a new feature to make it easier.  I'm sorry you're having trouble, but I only need telling once.  ;)
