Topic: Forum software updated

[CharlesTurner]

It has been working fine for me the last few days however starting today every time I come to the forum it makes me log in again even though I click on the keep logged in forever icon. Not a big problem because autofill does the work but kind of a nuisance having a extra step every time.

I'm staying logged in ok.

I will keep my fingers crossed because I didn't have to log on this time . I will clear cookies as you suggested for good measure. Thanks

Yes, sorry, was working on it quite a bit earlier.  Should be ok for now, just trying to figure out adding back a few mods like the image viewer and other things.

Charles when I click on a photo often it does not come up and when it does it is too large to be seen fully on the screen. Do I need to do something? I have logged out and back in.

[CharlesTurner]

That is one of the last items that is giving problems.  There's a mod (add-on) to the forum which does the image resizing and next/back buttons which won't install without errors.  Will try again from the beginning when I can.

Any progress on the image resizing issue?  I'm now at the point where it is useless to expand a picture as I have to scroll down to scroll right then scroll up to see if I can see the particular feature in question.

And then let the SAAC forum know!

I open the picture in a new window (my browser allows that). It opens filling the screen. If I "click" it, goes to almost useless size.
When I post a picture, it has been edited in an Adobe Photoshop app (I got a couple others as well) to a usable size, 6 x 8 inches and 150dpi. Let's see if that is still true.

I found the unedited original, from July 2015 to use as a comparison.

i can open with windows photo viewer. about 3/4 screen. then mouse wheel will enlarge pic to whatever i want.

There are all sorts of work-arounds.
That's not the point.
It used to work well and now we have to kludge together solutions that require multiple mouse clicks per picture.

Are you still using Windows 95?   

[CharlesTurner]

Sorry guys.  I put in a couple dozen hours on this and will have to work back up my motivation to go round 2.  I got everything updated and looking like it did last time, but when I try to install the image mod, it fails.  I?ll definitely look into it at some point though.

Some of us are still using Bob.   
Thanks for the tip of opening the picture in a new tab: works great!  Less Filling!  Works Great!
