Hello,

As you can see, we have put the new bulletin boards live.

The migration went smoothly, though it look at little longer than I expected it to!

If you notice any problems on the boards, please post below.

J.

Oh it is TJ - which is niiice.
But my profile's disappeared into the ether, which is probably not a bad thing ;)

oh, yes, everything reset during the data migration. :(

Aha! I have now got to grips with how to use the 'chain link' tool.

1. Paste the URL of the pertinent web page into the posting.
2. Highlight it with a mouse swipe.
3. Click on the chain icon.

et 'Voila!'

Sorted!

DocProc,

That is indeed one of the ways the chain link work :)

JT,

In the old format, threads which were important or had reason to be held at the top of the list, had an identifying mark, any chance of restoring it please?
Also how does one identify which posts are mirrored and which are duplicated or single side?
While on that subject, the profile now appears on both sides when entered, was this intentional?

SC

JT,

Any chance of a cancel button from the send e-mail page, to take you back to the position you came from....please

tset test

easy

I'm all confused !

Stormcaller,

I'll look at adding a marker for the blessed threads!

Does it matter which threads are on both boards? do they really need to be identified specifically?

And yes, it's intentional that the profile appears on both sides. Having it uniform makes it easier for everyone :)

I'll see if a cancel button is possible too (surely just clicking 'back' works?)

J.

jimmy b,

what are you confused about?

J.

Oh don't worry i'm just a stick in the mud ,don't like change,,i'm sure i'll get used to it..Cheers JB..

Jon
You are in serious trouble!
You have messed up the numbering on Pilchards Plaice thread.
Years of dedicated posting down the drain.

Martini,

Opps :)

any chance you could increase the size of the `T`button on the Stockwatch list, unless I hit it dead centre it doesn`t play, what a grim world we live in eh?

Sequestor,

There's no 'T' button on this bulletin board. What do you mean?

If it's nothing to do with this new BB, you may want to add the comment in the right place?

J.

JT,

Re profile, I suspect that depends on if you ask the individuals who had a seperate profile on each board, or only on one by choice.

Re cancel, just trying to re-introduce consistency of layout and "flavour"

re Top Threads, hadn't realised there was a religious significance.

Re Mirrors, I do data, so such questions are natural, also some posters only sit on one side, and may not be comfortable on both, so won't post.

Re Mirrors, it may be significant to those who subscribe.

TJ - there's nothing else for it - oops doesn't cut it.
You'll just have to go back and renumber them all :)
What've you been doing all day?

I like 90% of the changes, especially the icons next to the name etc, but the blue text on the main page of topics is just awful, like having a bentley in yellow!

StormCaller,

The problem users have had with profiles only being set on one board is that a free user will maybe get contacted by a user who has set up a profile on the Traders' Room but not the Investors' Room and therefore won't be able to reply.

There's no need to put in personal details into the profile, and the email address used in MoneyAM Messenger is kept private so we don't think there's an issue there.

I'm going to try and add a cancel button :)

Regarding 'mirrored' threads (they're not mirrored in the DB, just some threads are set to display on both boards: the IDs for the remain the same on both sides): a thread can only be set to be displayed on both boards by MoneyAM staff, and only threads that are relevant to both boards will be set that way (maintenace threads, beta threads, champ invest stuff, bugs threads), so there shouldn't be any real 'dilution' of worth to the paying subscribers.

I hope this answers your questions.

J.
