    Much better now. Say Thanks works as well. I believe I've fixed those two issues. For anyone not seeing changes and such, would you please clear browser cache. If you post any issues, would you please let us know the browser, browser version, and OS you use? That would be super awesome!

    Dark Contrast: Here's a screen shot of the buttons and forum categories.  We need to change the text color on the buttons and categories.  I'll look around other places

    Need a good smilie pack too! Suggestions??

    I have some beautiful retro and classic smilies, however, most of them are animated.  I'm not opposed to plucking in the non-animated, but it would literally be one by one

    I used to get mine from emoticon central but I don't know if they are still up. I also like the animated ones lol. I would suggest just find low file size emoticons/smilies as it's not worth issues with page load if using big ones.

    Can someone please check the forum in dark mode and let me know if I missed anything? Hopefully, it's all fixed. RE: buttons and menus were not able to be seen due to the font and background being the same color in dark mode.

    I tried to "like" two separate comments this morning from a member and I got an error message.  I've seen this type of message before, but it's been a really long time ago.  I just checked my error log errors.

     

     

    If anyone else has any issues, please share and I'll consult with a tech-guru too.

    It's usually better to start a new thread for new issues.This helps keep track of an issue and to keep threads easy to read and follow.

    For your issue above, have the user "save" their privacy settings. This sometimes happens and involves the privacy settings just needing a kick.

    Ok I see. The threads are showing in the feed and people are commenting on that. Those comments do not make it into the thread as they are not supposed to be there. As you see your thread is now barren of the discussion. so you are losing your discussions.

    Thank you for taking a look @Techi Jedi.  I'll be sure to start a new thread on new issues next time too, good point! You're the BEST!

    Taking a look at the new editor.  I have a question, because I'm not sure if it's me and I'm doing something wrong, so here is my question.

    If I type a phrase and I want to copy/paste it in the editor as a duplicate phrase, I get a pop-up for adding a link.๐Ÿคจ

    Phrase example:

    I would like to copy/paste this phrase 

    I've included two screen shots. You will see when I go to copy the above phrase I get link info.  If I click on link info, I get a module box to add a link.  I just want to repeat the above phrase.  What am I doing wrong?๐Ÿ™ƒ

    Pop-up to add a link?

    I'll try this on my site and let you know how I get on, but looking at your screenshot I see you have the "Indent Right" button highlighted in blue, so do I on my site for some reason? ๐Ÿ˜‘

    Is the Copy/Paste something to do with the TinyMCE Editor Settings, Auto Link? ๐Ÿง

    Actually, I think Paste is Control V only?

    K, first check, the indent right button seems to be set as a default.  It's automatically highlighted before starting writing in the editor.

    Testing copying this text on a second line.

    Testing copying this text on a second line.

     

    *I was able to copy/paste by using editor and control C and control V.

     

    Allrighty, here's what this new editor allows me to do....I have to click on "edit" above and chose copy then I can paste. I'm used to highlighting the text, but in this editor, if you highlight, you get that insert link thing.  Maybe I'm just old school on copy/paste, but it's quicker in this editor to use control C and control V.  I'll do that from now on, thanks @Mark Ransome! ๐Ÿ˜‡

    Going to go hide now....lol๐Ÿ˜

    Oh, and the super nice thing about this editor is it finally preserved the paragraphs I wrote.  ๐Ÿ˜ It's about time. ๐Ÿ˜
