Bradleyfans update

[Da Coach]

We are still working on correcting the problems with the updated format. Thanks for being patient.

Thank you for the update.... I'll come back in a few days because so many functions do not work.

[Da Coach]

Most of the problems and error messages have now been fixed. If anyone is still experiencing problems, post them here so we can look into them.
We are still working on a few issues, including improving the appearance of the board.

The search feature doesn't seem to be able to find anything

[Da Coach]

Working on the search feature.

If any new members signed up since last Monday, when we began this update process, your registration was wiped out by the update. So please re-register.

And one other thing that members who post messages might notice. The reply window at bottom of each thread is set to a simplified text window by default. To change it to a more advanced text editing window, click on the capital A just above the window on the right side. That will give you an advanced text editor.
Unfortunately, this version of the vBulletin message board software does not give the administrator the ability to set that as a default for everyone.

And here is another thing some users may need to do. It appears that if your had an avatar picture on the old board, it is not working on this new board.
You will have to reload an avatar picture. Click on your screen name in the far upper right of the page, and go to "My Profile".
Then place your cursor over the avatar image, and click to Edit Avatar. You can choose to upload an image from your computer, or select an image off the internet.
Remember that we have rules governing what kinds of avatars are not allowed, so please read the forum rules.
Board rules-
https://www.bradleyfans.com/vb/forum...es-for-posting
Here are some that apply to avatars:
- Individual avatars are allowed, but must not contain anything inappropriate and should be different from previously registered posters.
- Avatars must not contain nudity or sexual suggestions or implied sexual themes.
- Screen names, avatars, web links and signatures are also subject to the same rules of appropriateness as the content of the posts.
- Screen names, avatars, web links, signatures, or any posted material are subject to the approval of the moderators.
- Commercial advertising or other forms of SPAM, or links to advertising sites are not allowed. This applies to messages, avatars, and member's signatures,
- Anything lewd, or remotely resembling pornography or issues of questionable taste are not allowed. This also applies to avatar pictures.

The Bradley Fans website is working a lot better - Thank you.... A quick question - I attempted to post a picture and the response is that I do not have permission to post attachment / pictures. Is this the standard permission level for a new Bradley Fans member? Is there a method to request permission to add attachments / pictures ? Thanks again.

Thanks for working so hard and for getting us up and running again Da Coach. Saturday I couldn’t even get on the site. It kept saying I wasn’t authorized to be on the website and kept showing a pop up of an error code...

In the past, the standard default setting was that we allowed images to be posted only by uploading them to a separate image hosting website (like www.imgbb.com) then posting the link here with an [img] code preceding the link, and [/img] code following the link.

There is a shortcut that can be used by clicking on the large A icon just above the posting window, then clicking on the image icon (the tiny rectangle with a sun & mountain).

But I have changed the settings to allow all members to post an image directly from their computer or from any image on the internet. Try it now and let me know if it is working.

Try cut and paste the internet address for the picture
then manually insert [img] in front of the internet address then [/img] behind it

then you should get the picture but I wouldn't know how you'd post a picture from your own computer files

The new message posting window has a button to add a photo or attachment. Posters can use those buttons, and now it will open a second window that allows the user to upload a photo.
The other way is to click on the button on the right that has an Aon it. That opens a new set of options. Click on the small icon about 2/3 of the way to the right that looks like a drawing of a sun & mountain. It will open a new window that allows multiple options for posting images by uploading or linking to them.
