Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

And while you're at it, can we control the way the sizes of pictures are displayed? Some of these photos recently have com in so big you have to scroll back and forth across the screen to see them all and it takes the width of the text along for the ride.

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

I attempted to resize them using my previous code. It did not work as the images seem to be handled differently now. I will however look into it more.

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

i will add, that I don't like them automatically scaled tiny either. Maybe we can find a happy medium? I try to keep mine down to 700 pixels wide at the most.

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

The resizing method of joice actually pertains to the images enclosed in the:

URL tags

When the smaller image is clicked, the full size version opens in a new window.

I am hoping I will be able to get my old method working again so they don't break the frame anymore.

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

This weekends upgrade also includes the blogs now. I have some bug fixes that will be applied to them too. In addition, I am also going to upgrade the server. This means we will be doubling our disk space and increasing the bandwith by 100gb per month.

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

Two things:
#1 I love the 'top' button that is on the posts

#2 I know this was like this before the upgrade, but having the 'from' line on my emails about subscribed threads be "Reptile Forums - The HC Network" makes my computer angry because it doesn't all fit. If we are members of the site i'm sure we know that it is a reptile forum, maybe we could just say "The hc network" or "herpcenter"?

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

I will look into changing the mail handler stuff. It says that though because it is automagically inserting the 'title" of the site. I will need to change the phrase for that variable and all should be good. (Pending I can find it. lol)

Re: Upgrade Coming - Downtime

When I hit the 'top' button on anyones post it takes me to the top of the page, if I hit it on a reply I just posted it takes me to the homepage. Just a heads up.

I just tried it myself and got the same result as Lacey.
