​Can you give me an example of the text that you're finding difficult to read?  If I know exactly what text to adjust, I can darken it a bit.

I've noticed that too.  And I always find something to edit just as soon as I hit the button.  I'll check it out.

Glad you got it sorted, I don't think I would have thought of that.

Just in case others are looking for it.

​It's there, but it won't allow you to delete attachments that have been included in a post. It provides a link to the posts that you have included the attachments in... if you go to those posts, edit them to remove the attachments, you then have an option to delete from My Attachments.  It's kind of a pain, but it's a feature to help keep broken links/images to a minimum.

Members list has been removed, and functionality moved to the search. If you miss the tab at the top, I can create one that brings you right to a members search. You can manage your attachments by clicking your name at the top-right, and choosing My Attachments from the list... I'll also increase the limit to 20mb. I worry about increasing it too much because we have a lot of members and SSD drive space isn't cheap I might also suggest dropbox for sharing docs publicly?

Feel free to bring up any features/items that you miss from the old forum and I'll look to see if they have been removed or simply disabled by default in the new software.  I'll check out the Members list soon. I have a feeling that the member you're talking about registered, but hasn't yet validated their account by clicking the link in their email.  There may be issues with email deliverability, but I'm not going to troubleshoot them on the existing server with a move happening very soon.

I typed that from my phone.  That was exhausting. So, I know nobody is looking forward to another period of downtime, but I think the wait will be worth it.  All of your donations around the end of tax season made the upgrade possible, so I'd like to take advantage of it right away. You might not notice a huge difference, but I measure website performance in milliseconds, and the new software is measurably slower on the existing hardware.

I was a little worried about how the new software would run, and things just don't feel as snappy as they used to. I imagine it'd get even worse around tax season when the site is under heavy load. I have a new server being built this very moment with much beefier hardware including a RAID 10 array of SSD drives.  I'll most likely do the migration this week, but the downtime should only last a few hours.  I'm going to try to get it done in the evening. 

I agree, but now I'm tempted to re-crop the image to center the spiral ​ ​ ​I couldn't believe the hate the circles were getting on the software vendor's forum. Anyone who feels that strongly about circles has deeper issues than we can help with, so I think the circles are here to stay. Glad the small style changes helped... it's amazing the difference a few very subtle changes can make. I agree that everything kind of blended together before.

Same here... and I also like that there's a tab on that same popup to view the latest post too.

Profiles photos are back, as I'm sure you folks have noticed. Let me know what you think about the circular images.  I feel neutral about them, but I've seen both positive and negative feedback about them on the vendor's company forum... so if a bunch of people strongly dislike the circles, I can modify the stylesheets to make them square.

Likes are back to the way they used to be, but I'm going to have to look into the notifications thing. Messages work differently too... you don't delete a message, you leave the conversation, and once everyone participating in a conversation leaves it, the server deletes it automatically.

Jump to first unread should still be there... the little dark circle to the left of the thread should do it. ​ Also, when you hover over the thread title, a card will pop up giving you a glimpse of the first post. There's also a tab on that card to get a look at the latest post. See attached screenshot. ​In the Forum List, General Chat, ACA, etc, the icons on the left show whether there are threads with unread posts in them. In the Topic List, all threads with unread posts should be bold. See attached screenshot.

I've changed the MyATX link for now, and I'll wait for a little more feedback to see if it should stay that way.  I'm wondering if people have their logins "remembered" on MyATX, they my not need to go to the login page every time. I've fixed signatures, no need to change anything on your end.

​I don't have a backup of the old code, so I'm not sure what the old url is.  Is this right? https://support.atxinc.com/User/Login.aspx Sorry, I don't have an answer for the second question... I can suggest another shortcut though, F5 on your keyboard will refresh any page.

Is https://support.atxinc.com/ the correct url for the MyATX link, or is there something more direct?

​Refresh the page and let me know what you think.  I tried to make the changes are subtle, but hopefully enough to visually separate things a bit.

Does it say something about a gateway timeout? The problem is only from your iPad? If so, could you try shutting off the iPad and turning it back on?

Ahh, I see what's going on.  Check it now.

I got it, it just took me a minute.  I'm a little slow.  Check the settings again?

​Notification settings: http://www.atxcommunity.com/notifications/options/ Is that what you're looking for? I'm a little surprised that your settings aren't the same as they were before. Oh, I see what you mean about the notifications.  I'll take a look. About the email addresses, I didn't notice a change because I've always seen them there.  I believe moderators see them now also because logging in with an email address is an option.  Nobody else sees them.   ​I'll see what I can do to increase the contrast of the color scheme. You don't need to reload your profile picture.  I find all of the broken images to be extremely distracting, but I'm going to find a way to fix all of them for everyone all at once.  I've had to fix a few things that went wrong with the conversion process already, but I felt like this was minor enough so that I could make the site go live before figuring it out.  That said, I think you can go ahead and load your profile picture again if you want to, I just can't guarantee that you won't have to do it again once I apply the fix.

The MyATX link is on my list of things to add.  We're kind of starting from scratch with the new version, so there are some things that will have to be re-done. As for the white space, I thought you might mention it.  I wish there were some easy solution, but the design isn't my doing, it's just how the software looks now.  More white space, larger text, larger buttons... that seems to be the the trend these days.  As it becomes more important to support mobile devices, you see websites optimize for big fingers on little screens.

This is a major version upgrade, everything looks different.  Don't freak out!  This is the second major upgrade we've had since the ATX Community went online. First, before anyone brings it up, of course I noticed that everyone's profile pictures are broken.  I've fixed a whole pile of issues over the past couple days, but this one is mostly cosmetic.  I'll take care of it as soon as I figure out the best way to go about fixing the issue. A couple notes: There used to be a username and a Display Name for each account.  The username was used to log in, and the Display Name was shown next to your posts.  Username has been removed in this new version of the forum software, and you will need to log in with your Display Name or email address along with your password. I have a feeling this is going to cause a lot of confusion at first.  The forgot password feature should get you sorted out, but if you're still having issues, you can email me directly: [email protected]  In the new forum software, the Friends feature has been replaced with a Following feature.  Members can no longer add other members as friends. However members can follow other members and receive notifications when the members they are following post.I can't even begin to highlight all of the changes, but I have no doubt that there are other little bugs that I haven't squashed yet, so feel free to send me an email (see above) or PM if you run into problems.

I'm going to start preparing for the upgrade tonight, and the site will most likely be down tomorrow or the next day for the actual upgrade.
