Current Status of SDMB Upgrade

Just a test. Thank you, IvoryTowerDenizen. That’s how it works. Thank you for this addition, Jerry. Replying to multiple posts has always been tedious. And thank you for working on a Saturday.

Hmm. Must check this out.

ETA: test?

ETA2: Well, then. Nevermind…

**jdavis **, I noticed that the signatures are now defaulted as on. I wasn’t sure if you were aware of this.

Perhaps more importantly, “Preview Post” now displays your signature as well. That should save some “Sig Test” threads, at least.

Seconded! Jerry, you’re awesome!

So that’s what it does! Supercool!

The only problem is that it puts the quotes in reverse order. Or does it? Maybe it’s the order you click the multi-quote buttons. I’ll have to see.

Anyway, big props for Jerry, the mightiest of the tech gods!:cool:

Hm, mine showed up in the order in which I clicked them, but that was also their order in the thread. What if I attempt to quote posts that aren’t in order?

OK, it looks like you have to click them in the order in which you want them to appear.

This is very cool.

Aww, search still doesn’t like me. It says:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in /home/straightdope/boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/search.php on line 1156

sniff :slight_smile:

Awesome on keeping the original version that can be compared to the edited version of a post!

What happened to the tags?

And now it’s gone. :smiley: New plan for me, when something new and cool gets turned on, don’t say anything until it is in place for a month. I seem to be jinxing everything. :smack:

Someone would have seen it, said something and we all would start playing with the new toy. And then Jerry would have to come in and clean up the mess.:smiley:

Is it just me, or are visited links not changing colour?

No, I’d noticed that too.

What was tagging? Sheesh, I miss everything.

Ah, fixed again. Yay!

Oh crud, wither dig tags go? Those were potentially damn useful and could save on searches. Please turn them back on.

Wow. . . this multiquote thing is cool!

– No reason to worry. I just saw the multiquote button and figured I’d give it a try.

Tripler
. . . and now my official sig below (automatically):

Thanks, Jerry!

Not sure how, but before the upgrade you guys did something to Quick Reply to make it so you didn’t have to click any buttons before you started typing in the box.

If possible, it would be very cool to make that change again.
