The Big Site change

[Dmitri]

Sorry, I'm being lazy. Too many pages to read through.

As my soul purpose here is to get thanks, what happened to them? Have them been replaced by Likes? Will the old thanks be new likes?

I'm doing my part to re-establish the species!!

Ok...anyone something I can't figure out.

One thing I used to do on the old site was go check my list of posts. In this list, I would see if any of the threads I posted it had any replies after my post. Was easy to see that I dont miss someone potentially replying to me, without having to remember of subscribe or whatever to any threads.

Anyone have any idea how I can do that here I havent been able to figure it out...

I dunno if you're talking about what I think you're talking about... but you can see your posts by going to the top and clicking "My Profile". On the left hand side you will then see "Find all posts" and that will show you anything you've ever posted...... is that what you mean?

Also, unless you changed the default settings, you're automatically subscribed to any thread you post in. So if you just click on "Settings" you'll see a list of any of your subscribed threads that have new posts.

Thanks ekool. What happens now with the size thing? I guess I could post something and see, eh?

If this preview is accurate, the size may be what was linked!

 

[johngpt]

Figured I'd test this. The image I'm posting is 900 x 600.

So is this one, but linked back to the flickr exif page.

 

[johngpt]

Looks like the ability to click on the first one to get the larger size has been terminated, so it will only be at the skin's default smaller size.

The second one links back to the flickr exif page.

ekool, I'll PM you.

That takes me to 'all sizes'.

If you want the picture to be a clickable link, just use the 'share' function on Flickr...

When you look at a picture, there is an 'actions' button and a 'share' button above it. Click the share button , select BBCode and the size you want, then just copy & paste.

I like the new theme a lot, but find it a bit too space consuming, at least on the 17" screen I am currently on. For example it would be nice to have an ability to quick collapse/expand signatures, as they are often longer than posts and viewing a thread involves a lot of unnecessary scrolling. I know you can disable the signature in the settings panel, but on occasion it would be nice to have a quick access to them while reading a thread, for various reasons. I guess that's not something most members need though.

On top of all, it's great TPF will finally support Tapatalk. Can't wait!

 

[ekool]

We are going to come up with a solution similar to the old way for posting photos that are lage/with links, etc... the method now is just temporary. Hang tight guys.

 

[johngpt]

Thanks ekool for changing my settings back to TPF default.

Josh, I'll look into your suggestion. For years I've just copied the photo's link from the 'All Sizes' size I want, and pasted into TPF's 'Insert Image.' I hadn't thought the BBCode from the 'Share' menu would work here.

I think it's a relatively new thing on Flickr. If it's not new, it's at least more visible now. Before that, I always did what you did - go to all sizes and copy the address...

Just make sure you select BBCode - it defaults to HTML, which won't work here.

It appears if you post in this thread you get a like, hmm... example of how much better it would be to have thanks!

 

[johngpt]

LOL, we probably need both Likes and Thanks, this way if I Like something, you can Thank me!
