Re: Forums have been updated - post here with problems
Generally looks good, but one thing I'm noticing, the "Help and Support" forum has so many stickies that on my screen, I don't see the regular posts until I scroll down. You might want to consider if some of those stickies could be combined. I will also play with font sizes...
EDIT: A compromise, I played with font sizes both changing the use larger font preference and the ctrl-minus/ctrl-plus browser font control. I ended up turning on the "larger fonts" preference at the default 110% along with one ctrl-minus. I needed to turn on the "larger fonts" because the ctrl-minus with normal sized fonts was a bit too small for me to read easily.
It would be cool if the font size preference allowed selection of percentages LESS than 100% as well as greater than 100%...

The font setting is nice, at least for me. I thought out of the box the fonts were too small, so I set mine to 105%. And I've had my chrome settings at 110% for a couple years now. It's a good combination for me.
I don't see a way to change the font settings to a negative value.

I did a quick search on this and found this:ybn1197 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 13, 2020 2:15 pm The forums look great! I have run into one issue though. When deleting a PM from the inbox (not the message page), after I "Delete Marked" and press "GO", I am taken to a page with this error: "The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again." If I go back to my Inbox, the message is NOT deleted. Deleting the message from within the message window works fine.
Be sure not to clear all of your cookies, as that might be a pain in the ass for other sites you visit. I haven't tried this yet as I haven't had time today. But I was able to recreate the error.Clear forum cookies and browser cache, close browser and try again

Tried that. Logged back in and attempted to delete 2 messages. Same error. I don't mind deleting ALL cookies but I can't do that at the moment. I have some work projects open and I can't close out of them at this time. I will try it later to see if that fixes the problem.

ok so silly question where is the edit button for editing your own post? Or did I miss this somewhere?

I hover the mouse over each of the funky little picture icons (on the top right of your post) so that I can see what they do. 

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

definitely like a new car takes some adjusting but eventually we will all get it down to a routine of knowing where what is again. Avatars on the right now instead of the left lol and yeah i see the pencil now.

Re: Forums have been updated - post here with problems
I just noticed that I can no longer access the dice roller from the forum on my iPad. Tried a relog, but that didn’t restore it.
Re: Forums have been updated - post here with problems
Is the graphic at the top right of every page (when you're on a computer) that takes you to the roller not visible on the ipad?

Huh. I don’t see it on my iPhone either. :/
There’s also no option to view as website and not mobile.

Re: Forums have been updated - post here with problems
I'm looking into what I can do about this but it might not be an easy fix.

I have an android phone and I do not see It either.
On November 2nd I will be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Re: Forums have been updated - post here with problems
Yeah it's not going to show on mobile devices because the updated forum software is 'responsive' and changes with screen size. I think it's a small price for the fact that besides that, the forums look great on a phone or tablet.
If there is any fix for this, it will be a link to the roller in the quick links menu at the top left. Or something similar. But that means code modification.

There’s no ability to add the “desktop version” vs. “mobile version” toggle on mobile?

No, as far as I can tell, there is not.

Hi Greg,
Two more, please:
Two more, please:
- Any use of the "list" function now adds a bullet point to the first item of that list, and no other. Like at the beginning of this line. There's no way to get rid of that bullet point.
And when I had attached a link to a quote's author, like in this post , the formatting has now come undone.
