Yay, "My Content" is updating again for me too, and it's even listing all the threads I had posted in since the forum upgrade. I don't know how much manual labor that required of you, Albert, but whatever it was, it's appreciated. Thank you!

Invision did most of the work, and the main reason it wasn't working was something I inadvertently screwed up.

Well, at least it was inadvertent.

We should thank you for providing so much to sustain him, then.

I really like the new upgrade, but when we click on our name at the top of the screen there is a subscreen that opens. I wish it had an option to see everyone's posts from that subscreen. If I click on anyones small icon pictures I would like to have that linked to their posts instead of having to go to their profile and then searching through their posts that way....less clicks equals more pleasure!

Biggest issue in my opinion is the attachments icon that you can click to view all attachments in the thread... is that missing? I'm not seeing it anywhere.

Fortunately someone wrote a hook that adds this functionality back. I've installed it and it seems to work fine, although I need to replace the actual paperclip icon with the one from the old skin, and put some space between the clip and the title. I'll do that tonight.

Now that things are getting ironed out i'm liking the new upgrade!

What happened to save on pictures? If I click on the image in this post, for example :-

There is no longer a "Save" option on the bottom right.

Well to be honest.. "Content I follow" still works better than "My content" link. Case in point.

As of 1 minute ago, this is "My content"


And this is "Content I follow"


The "Content I follow" link correctly shows there's a reply from 1:09 this morning on the "Apple 2 users" thread. And it shows all the threads I participated in and sorts it by time/date.

Using "My Content", that "Apple 2 users" thread is sorted to the 2nd page for some reason, behind many threads that haven't had a post in days. Go figure.

I'm pretty sure this has been fixed in the next version currently in beta testing (3.2.3).

Still having a lot of issues trying to make posts. It will say it's saving the post but nothing ever shows up, forcing you to reload and try again.

Yeah, this is happening to me quite a bit too.

Has anyone figured out how to block or ignore forums? I haven't been able to find that feature since the 'upgrade.'

I explained how to do that here earlier in this thread:

I assume that's what you're looking for?

Yep, that's it. Thanks.

So now we select what we want to see instead of selecting what we want to block.

Yes, that is correct. The previous "Block Forums" functionality was a third-party modification, not something built into the software. Invision apparently decided to go the other way when adding this feature to the forum.

I noticed something last night. When using the mobile interface (on an iPhone) the threads will say 'Last updated on 12459023429' or some other long string of numbers.

Looks like this bug has already been reported and fixed--I'll try to fix it here so we don't have to wait for the next release of the software (I've already asked Invision to supply the fix (which is surely trivial), but I may have to dig it up myself..)

Do you know what happened to the extra padding or margin below quoted posts? There used to be a nice chunk of white space between the bottom of the quote and text, but now text is hugging the bottom of quotes. Example:

I like pizza-flavored cotton candy.

That's disgusting!

Dates in the mobile skin should now be displayed properly in "View New Content" and search results.

The problem with the forum sometimes taking a long time to load when you click on an individual forum (such as "Atari 2600" from the main forum index) has been resolved. Much faster now. With Invision's help we've identified some other slow queries and I'm going to investigate them to see what I can do.

I noticed that the stars indicating that there was a thread I had commented in and had new content are missing.

Yes, showing which threads you participated in is what was slowing that particular query down, so I disabled that feature for now.

Ok I've got another one for you. When using the mobile site, is it possible to make it go to the newest unread post when you click on the topic? The regular AA forums do this, but it doesn't happen when using the mobile site for some reason.
