Try tapatalk. Seriously.

I have tapatalk also but it doesn't work as well and I don't like the feed. I want to see everything that has been posted not just what they think I want to see

On the left side- click the menu button on the forums tab until you see a list options. Click "unread" it'll show you everything you have not yet seen..

Not sure what you mean by "changing". It's an, I forget the terminology, an absolute link, it will show you all posts since the last time you visited. If you're logged in.

Yes you're right, I was just having a dumb moment! I copied the URL after clicking on it, and not copying it directly - shameful for an IT guy. Even more shameful is that I didn't consider doing that directly from the Active Topics link. :BangHead:

Although it would still be great if things went back to the way they were.. :angry:

When someone quotes someone else and I want to quote all of that I can't. I can just quote the person's post I pressed "quote" on...

Sorry if it sounds confusing but I really can't say it nicer.

f.e. the post above. When I press "quote" it gives me just Raj's post, not Snerd's also.

oh, now I understand

How did you choose your status to be "offline"? I have that box unchecked but apparently my status is still "online"

How do I see what threads I've started ??

I didn't, I went offline.. :lol:

I just go to and fro every few minutes between doing my job and browsing TPF.

Disappointed that you chose to drop support for the IOS app. While it might have been lighter in weight then the website, that's an advantage because it would load quickly where 3g/4g or wifi service was spotty.

What happened to the "My photos are OK to Edit" or not to edit under your avatar stuff ?

I wish I knew. I've asked that at least twice now and not even gotten a response. It's annoying as all get out, though, to have to either "watch" your own threads or dig through all the comments you or your friends made in your news feed trying to find your own thread. And it's nigh unto impossible to find any of threads I started before the upgrade. I suppose I could search for them, but I don't understand why something that was SO very easy before is so NOT easy now.

And I also don't quite understand why no mod or administrator has even bothered to respond to my questions about it. Maybe they'll respond to yours.

I just joined this. Haven't figured out how to work everything. Some places that I tried to get into and post it says I have to sign in or joy and it tells me to use a different credential as my normal one that I sign into Tapatalk with. When I put in my username that I picked for that topic and the password I choose and hit enter is says processing and just spins around in the middle of my screen and does nothing more. I created the topic in here called outdoor photography it's in the introduction section. I don't know if that was really where I should have put it but that's the only way I could figure out how to do it. Any suggestions ?

I still don't like the Change, and to be honest if I didn't spend this much time here and meet a few people, I would certainly leave....
But.... what annoys me the most these days, has nothing to do with the Change issues that we all encounter, it's normal, and it's ok I guess. It takes time to sort out everything.
It's just the fact that we had a good support for a couple of days, asking and getting responses. That's why transition was easier.

Where are admins/mods now?

They don't care anymore. They did the main job and left... THAT bothers me the most. They have lots of visitors and for sure lots of new members, so that matters to them. Why should they care about our "minor" issues?

And I hate those emoticons! You could at least delete duplicates!
