  1. Not as such, they seem to have dispensed with the concept of pages in that view but I am investigating if there's any way some useful information can be indicated. Is there not a Status option in the +Create dropdown at the top?
  2. It is not anything that has struck me before given normal viewing distances and angles but the side-on view of Silver Link on an ECS working jumped out. Having thrown that grenade in I wonder how many figures would be required to populate Tony's ample roster of coaching stock? Please note; I'm not volunteering, just stirring the pot.
  3. Sadly, it was abused by people who were generally disruptive and they were more likely use it to needle someone than to give a valid balance. Its removal meant they either had to qualify their position or shut up.
  4. Martin's quite correct, what's good for the web is completely different to what's needed for print. I have been looking at what the settings are and what's happening server-side and tinkering with alternatives. Originally it was set to re-size and item down to 1200 x 1200 (max dims) and display at 1500 x 1500 (max dims) and in that form I uploaded a 6.09MB image (good enough for a double page spread in the mag) and the resultant displayed attachment came out at 456KB, I've adjusted it to 1500 x 1500 (resize and display) and it's a reasonable 683KB. I did try 1920 max width so that there was a full-page lightbox (equiv to HD) but can then see that the upload/resize/compression takes longer to process. On that basis I'm tempted to reduce the 10MB limit downwards to reduce server load rather than anything to do with size and display. Not much wrong with this for a 683KB image for web use.
  5. Judging by the number of PMs I'm getting it seems to be an isolated issue! It could be a poor error message that shows if the recipient has disabled their messages - who were you trying to send it to and I'll investigate further?
  6. Come and see me at the weekend; I'll have something for you.
  7. Send me a PM with a temporary password and I'll change it then.
  8. I can see more people are responding to blog entries thanks to the way the Activity Streams work.

      Quite agree! It was one of the reasons why I posted less often on here as I'd liked; I love the blog format, but found the lack of integration meant views were a fraction of what layout topics would achieve. I'm excited to start posting now! Thanks again for all your hard work Andy - it really is appreciated by most!

      Blogs were always a bit difficult to see up till now. Having new blog content shown in the activity list means that I will now get to notice all the good things that I would have missed on the old software.

      You cannot check your own work, and if blog entries receive more views then they should get more comments too, and this can only encourage collaborative working. Good.

  9. Disqualified from the next round I think you'll find. I've removed the link from below the text box so they don't get used accidentally.
  10. He has staff for that sort of thing. I've adjusted it.
  11. It won't have been changed. Sorry Bob, even I can't access passwords as they're all encrypted. Go to the ID dropdown at the top right, select Account Settings and change it to one you can remember in there.
  12. I hadn't noticed that, I'll have a look at it. They should still be able to post one via the + Create dropdown.
  13. Not sure about the case behaviour to be honest Matt; I have been telling people to make sure they do use the right cases but the problem is probably in other things rather than that. It has been trying at times, I don't mind helping folk who have specific issues but I really can't abide doom-mongers heckling from the sidelines. Cantona had the right idea.
  14. You can recover this by clicking on your ID dropdown and go to Account Settings. In the right hand Other Settings panel select Ignored Users and you'l be able to undo any elements from anyone you are ignoring.
  15. I need to take a look at that, I noticed it yesterday; definitely something which falls into the PITA category of fixes. I did make them a little larger and clearer yesterday and coloured to match the theme.
  16. Not sure on that yet - I have seen bizarre behaviour where I don't get any notification for a while if I've picked up the content from an inline notification whereas I've had near immediate email notification if I've not been active in the other account. Maybe it's just cleverer than we are?
  17. Ooh, it's got a recount button in the admin area - I did yours individually and it came up with the correct figure. It's got an option to recount everyone so I shall set that running now.
  18. A nice psychological insight of you there Wurzel; you take more than you give and you don't think other people are very funny. Perhaps it's taken your location into account? I think what it has done is take the number of Likes or the total of Like + Agree etc from the previous version and lumped them together and the other categories are only counted since Friday. But the 3,322 is wrong (should be 13,513) - I could manually adjust that figure and then it would count on from that.
  19. It looks like the indexing has completed so all attachments and quotes should now be formatted correctly. I need to cast an eye over post counts and reputation scores etc.
  20. The blue notification bar saying that indexing was in process seems to have disappeared from the top of the Activity pages now and checking back to some old topics that haven't been touched since 2009 they all seem to have their pics so I think we're there in terms of pics and quote formatting etc. I need to have a look at post counts and reputation scores etc and see if there's any black holes.
  21. Would you have a link to a pic of a mini-Tony please?
  22. I've not observed that when I was testing (I did use to have that problem in the Admin area on the old software which I used to get around with a long press on the top of the menu and then the list used to stay up) but will try and investigate further.
  23. No they don't, they get the DVD and they may have preferential rates and/or an initial gift.
