Welcome Back APUGers! Please take a moment to read this post.

In the forum list the graphic arrow to goto last post is very faint. Could do with being darker so its more obvious.

The same for collapse and expand category arrows

backgrounds need to be dark like the new button.

They are basically forums, that I hope to migrate to the groups area soon. You can click "Forum" in the main menu and scroll down to see them all. Thanks

Perhaps I should be waiting for the migration, but I tried with Firefox Mozilla/5.0 Intel Max OSX 10.4 and found Regional there as you say.

I wanted to reply to an Oz post and as I don't use Firefox much I was asked for a password. My post was accepted after this and I can find it in Safari from "My Posts".

However when I returned to Forum 13 in Firefox "Regional" had disappeared.

It seems that if I'm logged in I can't see "Regional" in either Firefox or Safari 3.0.4

Please understand that I am not complaining, but trying to help with what seems to be a bug.

Regards - Ross

Hi Ross, if you click this: (there was a url link here which no longer exists) do you see it? Thanks

I want to exclude some of the Forums, and there is a place in General Settings which discusses this. There is a blank area there, and it may/may not be the place where all the Forums are listed and I can choose which to exclude, but it is empty. It discusses using the Control key to select which you wnt to exclude, but on my Mac, that doesn't do anything (even when I go to Forums, and try to highlight the forum I want to exclude by using the Control key. Is there something else to do on the Mac? And where do I perform this operation?

The Forums I see in Forum view are English, which is what I want. What I am trying to do is exclude non-English posts, and non-English Forums are not among the choices in the English-only Forum view. There are probably a few things to be done, but the search function has not led me to them.

Thanks.

Has the ability to only choose English forums been fixed yet? Just wondering if I missed it or the request got deleted.

 

[jamesgignac]

I had been gone for quite a while and just came back to this site a few minutes ago - definitely lots of changes. Looks great and glad to hear it's now ready to carry on long into the future!

Great work!

As a temporary measure, would it be possible to add the Forum Tools/Mark this Forum Read functions to the Parent forums for each of the German, Dutch and French fora?

I see probably most fora, but not regional in the list. The regional link used to be in the dark header, but is not there.
The URL appears in my browser as you posted "forum13"

Highlighted in the dark header is "Forum", below that "Forum APUG English Forums"

I use the "Remember me" login facility (one less password to enter)

As I posted being logged in seemed to make Regions not there (but this could be a red herring)

 

[Pumal]

Thanks. It looks great. I would be glad to send a Donation if I could do it through Weastern Union

I had a momentary idea to delete my APUG cookies, but no change after doing so I'm afraid. Tried deleting my APUG bookmark by re Googling APUG: no change.

Correct. The Regional groups are now a category toward the bottom of that page. The link is not in the header anymore.

 

[Black Dog]

Thanks a lot for all the hard work...keep on keeping on!

Has anyone else had problems with the site loading on a Macintosh computer? APUG always seems to be up and running while at work and I have not problem accessing via "Tapatalk" on my Droid. However, I get messages that say "Failed to open" while on Mac. Firefox and Safari have both been tried.

Thank You,
Jody

No problems with loading on my MacBook Pro and latest Safari/OS

No problems at all on my iMac.

I have exhaustively checked each and every link, several times. It does not appear in Firefox nor Safari in the forum list from top to bottom.

Except when I am logged out; then it does appear, as you say, near the bottom of the list of fora.

So I logged out, found it, logged in and it was gone. Somewhat of a nuisance if one wants to keep up with the locals, or post a reply to any forum.

It's a "work around" but not a very good one.

Sorry Sean, but I don't appreciate the implication that I'm dumb.

Hi Ross, something seems out of whack with your user permissions. Can you email me your password apug.org@gmail.com I'll sign on as you so I can see what's up. Thanks!

I'm not sure what happened in the last 24 hours, but this site is now viewable on my Mac for the 1st time since the upgrade. I'm very happy and it has put a good start to my day.

Thanks to all

 

[Black Dog]

Likewise!

I'm on a Mac and had no problems from the start. Thank goodness 'cause I needed my fix!

This may have been discussed earlier, but I seem to be constantly signing in. If I come back to APUG after viewing a non-APUG tab open on my computer, or even go to view pictures, I get a request for sign-in and password.
