Please ask questions about changes in the new software here.

[TheJoker]

All the editing options in either quick reply or when using the full editor are grayed out and inoperable.

[cnm]

By that do you mean the BB Code icons?

The icon at the top left corner of the editing frame - bubble says Toggle editing mode - toggles you between BB Code mode, which gives you the buttons, and WYSIWYG.

[TheJoker]

That was partially it. It seems you can no longer edit in BB code mode though. If it's toggled with BB code visible, none of the BB code editing buttons will work.

That's true. The buttons only work if BB Code tags are not showing. (Did I tell you backwards?)

Hhmmm, there seems to be a problem with the Unicode support now - when writing a PM or creating a post, I get a gibberish instead of Polish letters

An example, I copy & pasted one paragraph from the Wikipedia article here: Złośliwe oprogramowanie

Złośliwe oprogramowanie, malware (z ang. malicious software) – wszelkie aplikacje, skrypty itp. mające szkodliwe, przestępcze lub złośliwe działanie w stosunku do użytkownika komputera.

Strange characters instead of Polish letters there...

snemelk, I see in the Invision bug tracker that language issues are fixed in "3.3.5" which I guess is 3.4. I've asked in their forum if there is something I can do to fix it in our 3.3.4.

cnm,

There is a patch posted in this bug report:

http://community.inv...-working-r38210

Look at composite.php in the first post.

[cnm]

However that topic says (last post)

As far as I know this file is also already included in the 3.3.4 package, at least I have just compared the 3.3.5 file with the 3.3.4 package I have and they're the same.

If you upgraded to 3.3.4 before Matt's reply then re-download the package, if you're still having issues after that submit a ticket please.

That was back in July-August...I'll have a look at it though.

[cnm]

In fact the composite.php is very different from the one we have. I uploaded the new one and promptly gave the board a fatal error. So we are back to the composite.php that came with 3.3.4. I will enter a ticket.

I found out how to fix Firwfox's spll cheker:

How to Fix Firefox Spellcheck

• Start by opening any forum, and either "Start A New Topic" or "Reply to an Existing Topic" as if you wished to actually post.
• Type any word in the body of your message... preferably a misspelled word.
• RIGHT CLICK on that word, and from the popup menu select the "Languages >" flyout at the bottom.
• Select the language you wish to use - probably English.

Confirm your selection by right clicking on a word again, going to the Language menu, and verify that there is now a bullet/dot next to the language you selected. A bullet/dot means that dictionary language is selected.

Oddly, I didn't do that, but I have my spell check back anyway... I don't know when or how that happened...

snemelk - will you please post some Polish in a topic in the Test forum? Invision support says, "Can you provide me with an example topic on your forum I can take a look at?"

[cnm]

snemelk - Please verify that this is now fixed.

[picasso]

I can confirm this is fixed. I edited one of my PM's and the Polish fonts are preserved.

Thanks.

As picasso says - działa jak należy!! (works as it should now!)

Hello everyone! I hope that all had a great holiday and the start of the New Year.

 

I really like the new software. However, I have a question regarding the Avatars. Is there a policy regarding type, appropriateness, etc. ?

 

On the previous software, there were "canned" avatars that could be chosen. Is there a selection that can be used?

 

I just went and downloaded a classic Snoopy picture. If that is not OK, please let me know.

[Budfred]

I am not aware of any policy changes with avatars and I haven't looked for our canned ones, so I don't know if there is a change with that...  Given all the other changes, it wouldn't be surprising...

Ok, Thanks Budfred.
