We're trying to give our tech folks a full list of any bugs / errors with the new forum software.  If you've noticed anything that doesn't see to work right, please let us know.

We're aware of the lack of an option to choose your time zone.  That issue is being passed along.

The other 3 things i've noticed -- but can live without, they were just nice luxuries --

1. I don't get the pop-up window when i have NEW Personal Message (and i know others in the CBDraft have mentioned this too).

2. the Quick reply box at the bottom of the page works but it used to be that when you hit "QUOTE" next to a post it woudl populate that box -- so as not having to leave the page -- now if you want to quote someting it takes you to the REPLY page.

3. the QUICK EDIT icon/link on the bottom right hand area of the post doesn't work -- you have to use the MODIFY link at the top.

I wouldn't call this a bug but it's a good suggestion if it can be implemented somehow. Notifications for when your post or something you quoted was replied to.

It seems to be the norm and is used in lots of forums. I mentioned it before but don't remember getting a response.

Can you explain this in more detail?  (I never used the option, so I don't know what has changed.)

sorry i was testing as I wrote  ;D

does this make more sense?

it works if you use it to post a new post, but not to quote an existing one (which you used to be able to)

in either case (then and now) i think you have to have it turned on as a preference on your profile... which I only recently did and really liked it.

If you go to Profile -> Modify Profile -> Notifications, does that provide what you're looking for?

Same here. Sounds nice, looking forward to seeing this.

And like Who, no puedo underlinar.

If it's helpful, I use Firefox 13.0.1.

I don't think so but going to give it a shot. I think this would only notify me on specific boards of replies to a topic I created or one that I enable notifications for. It would notify me of ALL replies to a topic, and not if my specific post was quoted.

e.g if you quoted and replied to me I'd get a notification letting me know and it'd bring me here not sure if we can do this maybe I didn't enable it correctly

What do you mean by "messages look way old"?

The email issue has been noted, as has the pop-up notification.  Hopefully support can get it sorted out soon.
