Announcement Welcome to the RPF's Forum Upgrade Support Thread

[Johnnyfl]

We have had some issues with this properly placing members. I am manually moving you up.

Just to let you know I received the same message and all on my likes have also disappeared.

 

[Johnnyfl]

Premium membership removes all of the ads.

I am getting all of the ads everywhere when using my PC. I have not tried mobile yet.

Width for desktop has been adjusted to a max of 1300px which should help readability and should not make the site feel so "bright."

Hey thanks for doing this, it makes using the site on desktop a lot better.

I will be honest I haven’t read all the above posts so may have missed this.

Does the junkyard now only show the avatar for the person posting because on my phone I don’t see the item photo as I used to when scrolling through the list but instead the OP avatar.

 

[Johnnyfl]

Also just noticed I am no longer a premium member. Paid my subscription renewal only days ago so hoping this is a glitch!

 

[DrkSideTndncies]

Oh and I see all the html formatting in the item post links AND still have ads as a premium member.

The menu bar is still there, and I just noticed that it's at the bottom of every page as well. I've been able to navigate the site pretty much the same as before. But those of you who don't like the color of the band aid can just stand there and bleed.

New Here is a pic from the bottom of the page and it opened at the top of the page:

I just tested that exact post in Firefox v51.0.1 & Firefox v62.0.2 (Quantum) and it works correctly in both. Do you have any addons or extensions installed that deal with page layout or formatting?

As a Premium Member, you should no longer see the adblocker notice.

With regard to pictures; if you click the image link in the top bar of the reply box, you will ONLY be able to link. To upload, you need to click "Upload a File" in the lower right (below the text box). It seems counter-intuitive at first because we are so used to the other way, but this becomes second-nature very quicklyu.

I still see ads FYI

Conversation sent... wow... that is so much more tedious than PM SENT!

I need to steal this quote... for the rest of my life.

Can you send a screencap of where you are seeing ads? As a PM, you shouldn't see any!

 

[jhusel]

Thanks bud!

Will send you a conversation in a bit and get it straightened out.

 

[DrkSideTndncies]

The ads seem to be gone and ive narrowed the other issues to only the “junkyard (deprecated)” area. So no item pic and the html formatting.

Thanks for the efforts, Art and moderators (and anyone else doing this). You knew it would be a bear and a ton of work, with a healthy side of bitching, but think of it this way:

The bitching and non-stop picking of seemingly third-tier minutae by my fellow members is only because of how important this place (that you all have built and keep running) is in our lives, and for us to go without or to not have back immediately even the finest of details, is soul-wrenching torture to us. Or at least we will make it seem that way.

Thank you all for the thankless efforts this week and before. Please don’t get fed up and just “pull the plug”.

And one more time, sincerely, thanks for the effort.

Not sure how much it's been mentioned, but I'm getting some pretty obnoxious ad block popups, even though I disabled it for the site. It varies. Some times it's a small box on the left of the screen, sometimes a banner at the top of the page, but most annoyingly, a full screen cover pop up, which blocks interaction with the rest of the page, and cant be closed. Using Firefox

Here's my forty dollers worth. Friend's are friend's. I don't consider my self following them are them following me. They are my friend's. Quite a few have helped me and visa versa. They are my friend's. And trophies. Sounds kinda underage high school. If we got rid of Rep points for a reson. Why have trophies. And I found it difficult to contact a meber through his avatar. Going to miss that. I feel something warm and friendly has been made into somthing cold and distant. Thats my opinion. Take it with a grain of salt

I noticed that photo floating issue today. Using mobile.. When I clicked the photo it opened. Up higher, then scrolling to see it closes the photo. I basically had to have the picture 80%off the bottom. Then click to see it properly.

And it cannot be my phones resolution etc it's a galaxy note 9
