Welcome to the new forums! This is a post to make sure they work in the most basic fashion before I release them to you. I suppose if this works, I'll be opening the floodgates.

DW, fyi...I noticed that posts from today aren't present. It's no big deal, just thought I'd let you know.

exciting stuff.

Yah, I knew about that. I started the conversion yesterday and it finished today. I didn't want to turn off the old forums until I was sure the conversion would be successful. So unfortunately we lost a handful of posts. I am sorry to those of you whose posts were lost! But hopefully these forums will be better and the inconvenience will be worth it.

DW, I can't seem to locate an option for posting a picture/image. I tried the Insert/edit image icon but that didn't seem to be the right path.

Daryl.

You were on the right track. You press the button that has a mountain and a sun on it. Then a little window opens up and you should have an upload option at the top of that window. If it's not there it could be a configuration setting on my end. There is a lot of new stuff in this forum that was not available in the last version.

dw, I'm not posting this to complain, but rather just to let you know what users might see when trying to post a pic, and hopefully will help you work the bugs out. In the mean time after I post this I'll keep trying to try stuff out on my end and maybe get lucky.

OK, I'm testing this pic thing out...here are my results. I'm not a technowizard, but I can find my way around a PC pretty good, but I'm a bit stumped on this picture thing.

I get a box with a few pics, but can't seem to access any of the pics that we used to. There's a message in the box to the right that, for all I know, is some sort of latin message giving me instructions on how to find the meaning of life . I tried reading it in a monotone voice and my coworkers started to file in a single line at my door waiting for me to give them the next message, LOL. Then, if I click on Link, then click on browse server, then click on file, I can get to some paths but I don't see one for my user name, and I can't seem to find the gallery, and if I click on those nothing comes up under file name. Oh yeah, the header on that window is kinda creepy, like it's mad at me, LOL...combined with the ancient lingo, I got skeert into clicking any more!!!!!

If I click on Advanced, well, my head just sits and spins for a minute...

So, either we'd probably need some guidance, or there are some kinks to work out, or I'm more PC challenged than I thought.

I guess it looks like it's pointing to the wrong folder, or maybe we should see more folders????

None of the problems are ya'lls fault. there are a bunch of configuration changes in this version and I'm trying to figure them all out. thanks for letting me know what you see! I'll get it all worked out soon.

No problem dw, we understand it's growing pains. Thanks for all you do.

Here's something else weird and thought you might want to know: when I use the login and click remember password, BRF forgets. I thought it might have been something on our end, a cache being cleaned or something on our server, but I'm thinking that it's not because all my other cached stuff is still there.

Again, we appreciate BRF and you!
