The 'Move' Thread

[Kevin]

Finally, we moved!

Please go to your control panel to check your profile/options, feel free to test them.

The avatars weren't transferred, if you use it in the old forum, you need to setup it again.

Maybe there are other things missing, please report any problems in this thread.

Thanks!

Kevin, it looks good!!!! thanks for all the hard work you have done. I think Im gonna like it here.... looks simple, actual alot like the old one, this will be great!

[Mad Scientest]

I like the big bold type! Much easier to read.

[Sally B.]

Wow, I love the big letters, too! Seems simple, too, for those of us who are not computer savvy!!!

[Janner]

Well I'm here after a few false starts - I forgot that I had recently changed my password!!
What Big letters?

[Xania]

I have to ask the same - why are people referring to big bold letters? Looks much the same as usual to me - am I missing something?

Kevin, congratulations on moving us, our posts, our membership, our PMs - good work!

I don't know if I forgot my password or what. But I had to do things all over again. Everything's fine now.

I notice that the font is a point or two bigger than the previous board. And line spacing is bigger, too. If anyone wishes it differently, I think they could adjust the zoom feature (view options) of their web browser.

Now I have to go back to a veterinary forum where I just mentioned the MMS thread giving the medscitalk URL. LOL

Good to see you here Gerry - thanks for the link.

[Janner]

That is handy to know who is online or off!!

In the User CP, I think the email notification setting is useful, if you would like to be notified immediately by email if your post has replies or you get private messages, you need to change the setting.

Select 'instant email notification' for 'default subscription mode", also check 'Receive Email Notification of New Private Messages' and 'Show New Private Message Notification Pop-up' on this page.

I would encourage everyone experiment with the User CP.

There is something wrong with the private messages, the displayed count is double that you have indeed. If you see some weird messages (no subject, no sender, can't click), just delete them.

Only the count is wrong, no messages lost.

[Xania]

In my Inbox there are pages of those no subject things, They are all dated 12am 01.01.1970.

[Kevin]

Just delete them. These were caused by the import, not your real messages. phpBB and vBulletin are two different forum system, it's expected to have some minor problems.

BTW, you can delete multiple messages one time, you don't' have to delete them one by one.
