Annarchy Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 All, I’m letting everyone know, I will be doing the next update, probably tomorrow morning, which is the time that we have the slowest activity. We got the notice the day I went to TX, so, I waited until I got back home, JIC... I’m apprehensive about it, because, 1. It’s a beta, and 2. It says “new features & a new look”. As usual, after the update, if any of you run into glitches, hitches, or strange stuff, please let me know. Thank you all for your understanding & patience. 4 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted August 26, 2020 Author Share Posted August 26, 2020 I just got a bit more info, I’m going to test the beta, first, then, if it’s ok, I will install it. 1 5 Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Thank you for all of your hard work Annie! Take your time. OR.... You could let Mt. Rider and I work on it. 2 Quote Link to comment

That’s definitely not acceptable, IMHO. 2 3 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 InvisionCommunity has now moved the upgrade out of Beta into a regular upgrade. It includes a lot of “bug” fixes. Word of warning, for ALL of us that don’t like change... it will change. A new front page design, more View options, better format on mobile devices, a new overall font, just to mention a few things. I am a bit nervous about installing it, however, to get the fixes we need, it is probably worth installing. That said, I will try to get the upgrade installed, early in the morning, MST. In case there are any issues with the installation, I will still have business operating hours to take care of it. Again, thank you all for your patience. 1 3 Quote Link to comment
out_of_the_ordinary Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Thank you for all your hard work and dedication, Ann! Thank you also for the acknowledgement of my disdain for change. 2 Quote Link to comment
kappydell Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 does this mean I won't keep getting locked out of the site on my first try to enter it anymore? Last night it would not let me on at all....kept telling me I was locked out and to wait 15 min and try again. Afteer 6 tries I gave up. Today I got the locked out message, then got in right away. Hmmmm. 2 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Hopefully, kappydell. Done..... 1 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Thanks for the well wishes. It seemed to install without any issues. Please let me know if you find something odd. 2 Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Looks good. Only thing I noticed so far is there isnt an 'edit' button and the other one that I can't remember what it is, beside it. Only a quote button. Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 I noticed that too. Quote Link to comment

Ok, if you press the quote word, it automatically puts it in the reply box. Back space seemed to remove it. On my iPad, pressing the plus sign, next to the word Quote, popped up a box saying, Quote 1, with an “x” to delete it. IDK. Redundant IMHO. Note to self.... ToDo.... find the “Edit” button...... 1 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Found it... On the far right of the post, are three dots, press on them and it gives you (me) the option to edit. Need to check that on my Windows machine.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 Edit is there on my Windows too. 1 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 The Plus sign is for Multi-Quote. 1 Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Got it on the Kindle. Thanks. Quote Quote The quote boxes still won't delete on a Kindle but that's nothing new because there is no delete button on a Kindle. 1 Quote Link to comment
Midnightmom Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Is there any way to hide the chat box (?) column on the right side of the page? It squishes the threads over to only 2/3 or so of the page and I find it to be annoying. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

The "share" selection allows a post in here to be directly "shared" to outside sources - such as FaceBook, Instagram, Pinterest, etc. Sounds to me like it can be an issue of compromised security. Most people still post here because of the PRIVACY that this site has afforded for all of these years. 2 2 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 MM, I will check on the Share, it was disabled previously. Now days, everyone seems to want to share everything on the net. Not me. I thought the chat box was disabled too. I’ll check into that. Moving the side bar will put those boxes near the bottom of the page. I’ll check into that also. Thanks. Jeepers, you don’t have a “back” button on your Kindle, like when you misspell something when you are typing? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 "Share" now only lets you copy the URL to the post. I disabled all the rest. Side bar boxes are now at the bottom of our Home page. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
snapshotmiki Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Hi! When I am in "unread content" the sidebar is still at the side taking up room. If I go directly from home page, it isn't. Not sure if there is a fix for that or not. Thought I would ask. Thanks again for all you do, Ann!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment
