Forum tools

2 Fast 4 U · 10-23-2006

Up until today when I clicked on the button of the Forum Tools, a little sub menu came out and I could click on a certain item and voila it worked.
But now I'm directed to the bottom of the page to click the button needed,
my question: has something been changed??, if yes WHY?????? it was so easy like it was can it be changed back, please??
BTW the button works fine with IE

, but not with Opera

Nothing in the program has changed. What Forum were you in? Were any threads showing in an index? Only threads from the past 30 days are indexed. That number can be changed at the lower left.

There have been some Opera specific display issues though....

If you are in a Thread, Thread Tools will show. If you are in the Forum (with the threads indexed below) you will see Forum Tools.

It's in al the forums Gary I don't understand it either, everything worked great until monday. Even as I'm typing this I can't even place a Smily in this post or change letter typ, color ect. Even if I want more smilies not a thing happens, when I click [More]
As I mentioned in the PM to you with Windows IE I don't have any problems

Did Opera have an upgrade recently? BTW, I was using Opera and have switched to Firefox.

I will not have a chance to look into this until after next weekend. Moving day for mom....

Do you have a "pop-up" blocker for the site on?

2 Fast 4 U · 10-25-2006

Well I don't know what's going on

, but everything is working alright now, I think, hope!! I can put in a smiley change Fonts, color, and all.
Yes I do have the latest version of Opera about 2 or 3 weeks now and do have the pop ups blocked, but with a pop up that tells me if one is blocked, so I can open it if I want, but I've never seen any pop up on opelgt.com??
Maybe some halloween ghost came early

to haunt my PC

Thank you if somebody changed something!!!!
