New look for ClassicSeaCraft

Valiant_200 · #1 09-22-2011, 04:08 PM

Hi everyone. Welcome to the new look for the message board. Log in now and look around. Make some posts!

One of the things you will want to do fairly soon is correct your birthday info. (Sorry, everyone has to do this. I can't get the birthday data to transfer from the old board correctly.)

To do this, click: User CP> Edit Your Details> Date of Birth

You can edit other details on that page as you see fit. Don't forget to click [Save Changes] button at the bottom of the page when you are done.

The time is now to see if this thing will float!

Thank you J~.

As of 5 a.m., EDT, the new message board system is online and operational. I have tested it a little and everything seems to work.

Let's decorate the place and see how it looks. You can upload your avatars by going to your User CP> Settings and Options heading> Edit Avatar. Look in the column on the left to find the link. (See illustration below)

You can make other changes there as well. In addition to Edit Avatar, there is Edit Signature, Edit Email & Password, Edit Options, which controls a whole gamut of custom settings, and Edit Ignore List. Hopefully nobody will need to use that!

Small thing . . . Is the time stamp a user control? 9:45am here on east coast.

The PM capacities changed so everyone better get in and clear some room. I just was denied access to 2 members' pm because they are full, as was mine.

Yes, Bigshrimpin, that may be changed by going to UserCP> Edit Options> Scroll down to Date & Time Options.

What time does the board say it is without any tweaks?

Sorry about that. Custom avatars were turned off for Registered Users (another board default). I have turned them on now. Please check again and see if you can add images.

There are a million settings to change on a new board. Please be patient, keep reporting bugs, and everything will be ironed out.

OK, so, I'm finally able to get in the door, but, I think I screwed up on my PM settings. Anyone who sent me a PM to be a contact was deleted except for NoBones. Don't ask me how, it just happened. ( ID10T error) I apologize for the error and ask that anyone who sent me one, please resend it. I will play with this some more tonight and see if I can figure it out. (I'm kinda slow with computers, so, please be patient with me.) Thanks!
