Official Bells and Whistles Thread

With the new upgrade, we got some more "toys" to play with :banana:

Can you tell I love toys?

So, if you want to test out things like the new multi-quote button, here's the place to do it!

Oh, and if you haven't given anyone a "hug" (pos rep hit) lately, give it a try here with the thread participants and see what happens! (I likey!)

So, have fun here!

That's cute!! I like what happens too!!! :)

er??? So you had me curious, but nothing happened.

You didn't get a pop-up after you left someone a pos rep hit?

Nope, I didn't get a pop-up . . . .

Hrmmmm, maybe you guys have a pop-up blocker enabled? Turn it off and go hug someone else! :D

You know, I didn't get the pop up the next time that I tried it either.....hmmmmm

Although my smilies and stuff that were working a little while ago are no longer working....maybe that has something to do with it??? I just cleared out all my cookies and temp internet folders also, after I found it wasn't working again.

(Maybe I should have put this in the other thread???)

But I did get the pop up the first the first time I tried it.

I have BP.net as an "allowed" pop-up site in my browser. I cleared my cache and cookies...and I'm still not getting a pop-up after leaving Rep :) Don't know what the problem is!

EDIT-- Found that if I click "Add to this User's Reputation" and it brings me to a separate page to comment, no pop-up. If I do it with the drop-down menu and do the Rep right on the same screen, THEN I get the pop-up :)

EDIT x2-- I don't know if it did this in the old system, 'cause it's the first time I've tried it, but if you click on the "Add to Rep" under your OWN name, it tells you whether or not you've received rep for that post, and what your Rep points are total in a pop-up :D

Multi-Quote, eh? ;)

EDIT-- Oooh, cool! It leaves an arrow next to your name, so that when you click it, it brings you back to the quoted text--very neat!

It's cool when you give a person good rep a thingy pop-ups and says:

Thanks for adding Reputation to this user. May you be lucky enough to recieve the same Reputation back in return.

there should be like a little smiley at the end. :)
:hug:

Have you enabled javascript? Also check your security levels as well. If it's set too high, it may not allow certain functions to run in within your browser.

Well i just gave a positive rep point and it worked for me this time lol.:P

Hehe! The pop-up's cute. ^-^ I like it!!!

I've always liked the multi-quote feature, thanks for getting that up and running. :)

thanks for the info Kim.....but I've tried 2x and haven't gotten any sort of pull-down...it sent me to a different/separate page altogether for BOTH times. Is there something you're doing differently that is providing a pulldown ????

no hug yet :(

It allows you to quote multiple posts. So click multi quote one time in each post in the thread that you want to quote (it quotes the entire message, so you may still need to delete out parts you don't want). It will turn red when you've quoted that particular post.

When you're done choosing the posts you want to quote, hit reply, and it will put all the quotes into your reply box. Pretty cool!

I posted this on another thread - hope that helps!

8000 posts.. jeez. Thats like, 12 posts every day for the last 2 years. We need more people as dedicated as you!

Btw, very sexy new features, I'm lovin it! I tested the feedback on like 10 people to make sure it worked "properly" ;D

Gosh....nobody tested any feedback on me. :P

Glad y'all are enjoying the new look and feel of the site. I certainly am. And I'd just like to send a huge THANKS to Raj one more time. He really put in a LOT of hours on this in his spare time...and managed to pull off a virtually seamless transfer. It just doesn't get much better or more dedicated than that! :clap: :salute:

Dang ive made over a thousand post's....:O

Raj, it seems a bit difficult to reproduce this, but if you're browsing as a guest, on some threads it will say there are 3 members and 1 guest (or something like that) browsing the thread, but it will show a list of every member that's online, rather than the members that are browsing the thread.

Cmon where is my LUBBS!!!! :devilish::devilish::love::love:

I just realized that you can Multi-quote accross threads.

If you're in one thread, you can click the Multi-Quote button, go into another thread, and in your reply - just below the text area - there's a string of text that says something like:
"You have selected 3 post(s) that are not part of this thread. Quote these posts as well, or deselect these posts."

Very useful if you're rounding up a bunch of quotes from different threads for your reply. These forums just keep on getting smarter :)

IE 6.0.2 and Java is enabled, yes...I can do the jigsaw puzzles online and they use Java (nice little teacup icon, too. ;) ) Security is set at medium.

LOL....actually, it hasn't. You could look it up in the member's profile, but it didn't show out in the open forums. That had been intentionally turned off because people (in the way back) had been acting weird about +1 posts and putting far more weight on that number than on any value of content.
