Site set up

[Tripps]

rocketfrvb is there a button or some way that when I click on a thread that it takes me to the last post I have read? I am flustered when I have to scroll for those few extra seconds to find where I left off. TIA

No, not that I figured out yet. My friend Dave said he could get us a new post button or function, hopefully that will do that, when he gets a chance.

I'll still change the site default settings,I but there's also a setting in your browser. I use Google Chrome., I just discovered this.

Go to Google home page, or search page, hit the buttons in the upper right corner.



Then choose settings



Then choose accessibility



There's a slider, I first tried 120%, last pic is 140%

Seems like most of the posts at the other site are 2500 Rockets, I fear we've been made redundant, boys.

That’s why we have this place.🤩

Just so WE NEVER HAVE TO MENTION IT EVER AGAIN.

There are those among us who prefer a "DARK" theme. If you run any reasonably new browser of note there is an "add-on" that will do it all for you called "DARK READER".

Available for Firefox based browsers and Chromium Based browsers. Firefox, Waterfox, Chrome, Brave to mention but a few.

Great thing is it works pretty much everywhere with no hassles at all.

So, Uncle Joe can relax.

Can we get a new post button on the bottom of the page?

That and font are on my list, I didn't want to bug him, but I'll call Dave this weekend. barbagris Do you mean just a dark theme or background

Dark Themed.

But that's the joy of the browser add on - You can also customize it to your own eyes. It also tones down wildly garishly colored fonts etc.
See no point in making work for anybody if the solution is already there and free.
The closer you leave a product to standard as an ADMIN - the less hassle it is when it's time to upgrade. Only change what is essential.
Themes are on the whole personal. Depends on one's eyes. I spent well over 25% of my professional IT life with Blacks screens and Green letters.

I don't own a cellphone - I HATE THEM - but I do have a work phone (under duress) - I'll see if the addon works there too.

barbagris if you're in IT, any idea why Clint posted 10 posts in politics and religion, I see nothing there on cell phone, neither does he, but he says he can see them on his laptop, which he used to post them. I never encountered anything like that.

[EasTexOutlaw]

That’s on my PC at work that I posted them on, and can see them on

[barbagris]

Try a different browser. Brave or Firefox Focus. If that fails - try using WiFi at home rather than the SIM DATA line. Does your Phone provider have a content filter? - be surprised, but you murcans!!! -

PM me the links and I'll look here from PC and on work phone.

I KNOW FROM BITTER EXPERIENCE that some stuff on APPLE DEVICES does not show on anything else and visa versa - Also it can depend on the Apple device model/version.

They do not appear on IPad

Maybe it has something to do with his work computer 🤔

They probably have a porn block on it.

[EasTexOutlaw]

Well none of the posts were porn and I’ve posted pics from that computer many times. It may have something to do with the fact I copied n pasted those from an email? But don’t know why they showed up on that one

At a guess - browser cache.

I asked Dave if he could look at increasing the font size and getting us a new post button, so if you can't log on in the next few days, I would assume he's working on it. He had some stuff going on in his personal life, so I've let it slide for a while, hopefully he can fix us up.
