8-19-2015 Forum Upgrade Help and How To

One thing I noticed - posting pics into a reply. Later, make another reply to something completely different, and it automatically attached the same pic onto that new reply, from a previous, unrelated post. I had to go back in there and edit it out. Working from a desktop.

It did that 3 different times, so it's a glitch in the software somewhere...

Is this all part of Obama's fundamentally changing America?

That's on the desktop version. Still hoping there's a way to switch to that on the phone. I hate the dumbed down mobile versions of anything.

I posted elsewhere but Ill repeat. The old forum required two different themes. One for desktop and one for mobile. This version is whats called "responsive". This means it uses the same theme but reconfigures based upon device. Im hoping we gain more control either through updates or 3rd party theme.

Thanks Tom.

In relation to that Drew, I left this part out - when I was composing the new, unrelated post, it wouldn't show the attachment of the old pic in my draft - it would appear there after posting it. That's when I'd go back and edit the old pic out. I guess what I'm trying to say - there wasn't a watch to catch it doing that, when composing the message - it attached itself once the post was made.

I had the same experiance with posting images. Once it posted the same image twice in one post. this one ...and no preview.
