This function was getting removed due to the amount of space it uses up. Maybe been done now.

yes me aswell mate

 

[Andy Campbell]

how do you post a picture then ?

 

[GavCo]

Use Adblock to block Avatars and the FF banner for a nice clean layout!

Bit gutted with that as even I found that method piss easy. Do you know what its getting replaced with mate?

 

[Roger Smith Loyal]

Do this:

Click on your username on the blue bar at the top. From the drop-down menu click on 'Prefernces'. Should get a pop- up that lets you de-select the top two items regarding 'watching' threads and 'receiving alerts on watched threads'.

All sorted mate. I had already posted in threads before I fixed the preferences option so I was still getting emails from the threads that I had posted in as they were watched.

How do you embed twitter posts using the BB coding?

 

[Potnbear]

I never even got to use it mate just read it getting discussed last night... I'm guessing you just need to use photobucket or tinypic like on the old board now.

Don't know tried to post a pic and it just gives you an error message. Can't see an option to do it any other way.

 

[Kathmandu]

Works for me on my iPad.

How are you doing it, are you using the upload file function or pasting the link

 

[Jimmy Mac]

Anyone else having to unwatch a thread after posting on it every time to avoid emails?

I've unticked every box in alert preferences and I'm still getting them.

Go to preferences rather than alert preferences mate, and untick the email one.

That's on iPad.

How do you change your user name?

You joking?

 

[CaptainObjective]

I know it takes time but we need a lounge section asap. The place is a disorganised mess.

 

[CupidStunt]

Segregation of the topics is quite badly needed, thats for sure. I expect we'll see everything a bit clearer come the weekend.

[borderbluenose]

How do you atart a thread?

 

[williewoodburn]

As much as I enjoy dipping into the Lounge from time to time, my real interest is the football side.

Hopefully we can have a bit of segregation of the two....its a bit of a nightmare at the moment.

No the skins responsive so it should set itself to suit whatever you use, be it iPad, desktop, mobile whatever.
