• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Lamont...is this a new server issue..

When someone writes a post/thread and it reaches the end of the number of characters allowed, the last word is repeated on the next line.

Here's an example (look at post 14 and 15): http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/...lease-somebody-make-this.&p=370860#post370860

Dochands,

Don't get upset. I was just trying to show Lamont an example. I noticed it happening to me first. In post 14 it shows as- station. station. and post 15- than than.

Of course there is always the possiblity that it shows that way on my PC only.

I just checked my Imac and it doesn't show there. I guess it may only be my PC.

I don't see any repeated words on that thread.

I found the problem. It's on my PC only. I was at 100% zoom and when I go above or below, the double wording is gone.

Should I delete the thread?

I have also witnessed words doubling up at the end of a line and beginning the next line. Don't think this is a server issue. The same error does not repeat itself when going back through the threads.:dontknow: Maybe it's just how the ones and zeros decide they want to play at that particular point in time.:hun:
 
I'm actually now liking the new version of the board software...... with one exception. Only one.

When you post a new thread, reply, etc. The controls are VERY rich. Lots of options to center text, left/right justify, blah blah.

However if you have to go back an edit that post after the fact (VERY normal happening for me), not all of the tools are there. Hummmmmm..
Might be worth bringing up to the vBulletin folks?

Hmm.
That is odd Phil. When editing, I can go to "open advanced options" on both tapatalk and using IE9.0. But I don't have the rich text options or emoticons on tapatalk. Both are there in advanced with IE9.0??

I've never seen any way in Tapatalk to enhance the text either. That's why there are times I like to use IE9 or Firefox (my default) to answer and edit. I LIKE to enhance text to make it more readable with bullets, indents, justification, etc. Like this!!

I'm now editing my posted reply, and I have no way to turn off Centering. I'm attaching the screen shots of the Post Reply, then the Edit controls to show the difference.
AGAIN!!!! Not a problem, only an observation.

Phil,
I just checked again and I do have all the formatting such as bold, center, left, bullets etc. (see screenshots below). I know we have had some problems with functionality in my website that I manage here at work, and it has all come back to IE9.0 and enabling "compatibility view" settings for all websites. You may already have that enabled, but if not, I included a screenshot of that also.

If you want to try this, just click on
  • Tools,
  • Compatibility View Settings
  • and then check "display all websites in compatiblity view"

Hope that helps! (edited to be BOLD and Bright Red after posting..... LOL. Take care my friend!)
