I agree that would be irritating. I thought it was set to only show up once per day. I will look into it.

The program we use for that form doesn’t know that you’re already signed up for the Tip of the Week. If you sign up for the tip again, using that form, you will not get two emails and the form will go away. I know, that isn’t a solution…but it will make it stop for now.

Thanks, Jim. It’s good to see you back here.

No, that is something else. I’ll figure out where in your profile to put a quote.

Tags are like hashtags in other programs. Say you are talking about tuning your bow, you could put a tag like shooting, or tuning and someone would find the post if they search for that term. They would likely find the post because of the conversation too, so I think I will look for a way to remove that Tag field.

Okay, it’s coming along. We are showing voices and views. You will see the number of views under the topic title and author.

You might also notice a blue line next to topics that you haven’t read or that have new replies.

Hi Grumpy! Glad to see you here.

If you click on your name or your generic image, and then select Edit, you should see a section where you can upload an image for your avatar. Let me know if you need help.

Duh! Why would I PM myself? Sometimes I get this stuff, and sometimes my blonde is showing. 😜

in reply to: Welcome #92682

Great idea! I agree that number of views is a better measure of interest. I’ll see what I can do.

I’m also looking for a way to show “unread posts”, but you would have to be logged in to see that. Are you guys seeing that the site keeps you logged in?

David, I think your photo was lost when the conversion copied over changes that were made during that week. If you click on your name or your generic image, and then select Edit, you should see a section where you can upload an image for your avatar. Let me know if you need help.

The private message thing might be in your profile. Weird that you can’t PM me. I’ll look into that. My guess is that many of the members who posted in the forums over the years are not really “active” on this new site, they were just transferred. That could also be why the message link doesn’t show for them. Hmmm… more research is needed.

Tags is like hashtags (#) on other programs. If you want your post to be searchable by certain words, like whitetail hunting or kids bows you can put those phrases in the tags section. (You don’t need a hashtag.) I haven’t really played with the search function much.

Hi Bo. Welcome to the new site! I’m sure the guys will be along soon to chat with you about your string question. We are all still trying to get used to this new system.

In the Classified section of the magazine there are two custom string builders; the first ad and the last ad. I’ll post an image here. If you have trouble reading it let me know and I can send you the actual image.

YES!!! 👏 We now have a navigation sidebar on all pages.

Emojis seem to be an individual thing within your keyboard now. Phones and mobile devices generally have them built in; look for the little smilie face near the space bar when you’re typing.

Here is a document that explains it for all devices; mobile and desktop/laptop computers. This probably isn’t the answer you were hoping for, but I am really having a hard time finding something that works on our site. I found that a quick keystroke combo gives me tons of choices.

Keep it “G” please. My grandson’s favorite emoji is the poop. 😂

Yep, that is still high on my list of things to do. I added it to the Members>Forums menu so we’d have something, but I’m still not happy with that, either. On the page that shows all the forums, you’ll see a sidebar to login/logout, go to different forums, see the latest replies, etc. I’d like that to show on all pages.

On that note, I’d also like to be able to tell which post/replies I haven’t read yet, and who’s online. And those danged emojis… So if you are bombing around here and you see weird changes, it might be me just trying different things.

Okay, the converter folks tell me the photo problem is fixed. (Where is that clapping emoji?) I see images in Steve’s post, Shadow Hunter. I don’t know what other photos were directly uploaded (rather than linked to Photobucket) so if you guys see that anything else that is missing, please let me know. I really appreciate getting feedback to make this forum usable/enjoyable for all of you.

Aw, crap! It looks like Photobucket images came through, but not direct uploads. Let me see what I can do. 🙁

Steve brought up another good point. Private Messages did not transfer over. If you have messages you want to save, please go to the old site and save those in the next few days.

Here’s a link, even though it says not to log in: https://www.tradbow.com/members/login.cfm
