Jimboxy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Posted August 28, 2020 Just to add to this, I worked back through the introduction thread to try and pick up any other users with insecure signatures as that is where most people land first. One of the other things that causes it is when we post gifs or images that are hosted somewhere else and the link is not https. There might be a setting we can enable to either adds in the S, or we might be able to prevent link posting from insecure sites, I'm not sure yet. If you are posting an image from somewhere else, if you click on the source button in the top left, you will see the HTML for your post, just check that any links have https, not http. (If you want to, if you don't it's no biggie.) 1
one-armed dwarf Posted August 28, 2020 Posted August 28, 2020 The site compresses direct uploads though. For instance in the flight sim thread I direct uploaded some screenshots and they're pretty blurry, did hosting in the high res screen thread and they look sharper
Jimboxy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Posted August 28, 2020 You can only really tell if you are using a monitor.
Jimboxy Posted August 28, 2020 Author Posted August 28, 2020 Me again. I've added a wildcard in the back end that filters any links that aren't https (ie esecure). If you post a link from a none secure site, it will just post the link text but not make it a live link. If you are trying to add an image from a none secure site, again it will just put in the plain text where the image was from and not the image. If the image is hosted on a secure site (https) it should still display without issue. If you are inserting a link to another site that is secure, it should make it into a clickable hyperlink. Again, if you run it to issues with any of this, let me know. 2
radiofloyd Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 I’ve had signatures disabled since I joined lol. I forgot people even had them.
Jimboxy Posted September 9, 2020 Author Posted September 9, 2020 I'm sure you've already noticed, but we've had an update to the forum software. It's very.. bright.. I'm not sure I like the style of it personally, I'll have a look at themes if I get a chance.
Maryokutai Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 I'm not a fan of the info block right next to the threads to be honest.

I've only tried it on mobile so far. It's a bit like someone turned off the CSS. I suspect they've made the default theme shit to force you to buy a better one. 16 minutes ago, Nag said: Fucking hell... this'll take some getting used to.? Yep.

I believe this is an option, but it's at a site level, so everyone would get it, so for the moment I'll leave it off. I had a look in the theme store, the decent ones are $40 plus $15 every 6 months to keep it updated. So we'll be having this theme for the foreseeable future.
one-armed dwarf Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 What we could all just do to save money is write our own CSS themes in the <source> tab on our posts. Watch I will make my text turn upside down, that's my theme. I think it's cool Weeeee... (the new theme looks fine to me)
mfnick Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Think it looks fine. A redesign I immediately like. However, don’t know if it’s possible or easy enough but is there any chance the “mark as read” button can be put back to the top of each forum instead of having to scroll all way down? Simple thing but would be nice if it’s easy to do ?
DANGERMAN Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 from the Gaming Purchases thread firstly, nice, secondly, I expected better@retroed
OCH Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Had to check now... From the comic book thread: The number of replies is comforting. Meanwhile I think we’re in the lead @Maf
Snaggletooth Posted September 9, 2020 Posted September 9, 2020 Just wondered if you could put the Avatars on the right hand side, I miss the old GTM layout ??
