    Why does Aza have an open envelope next to their name, rather than a chat box? Is that just a settings thing? (not a problem, just curious!)

        That would have been because I approved it. BAD had something as well

        I haven't been able to find a solution to it but will keep plugging away at it.
        So the issue is known but the solution is not known at the moment

          All due respect GVGjr I don’t think so. I found the ultimate workaround !!

            A known unknown if you will.

              Sorry if this has been asked. Was wondering if there is an app to download?

                  Every time i come to the site it makes me log in twice in a row, doesn't matter if I have ''remember me'' ticked or not, I'll log in once, and it'll just flat out refresh and ask me to do it again.
                  Doesn't matter if I'm on my phone, ipad, work computer or home computer, every time it's a double log in. Not the biggest issue but thought you should know.

                    Try clearing the cache and the history for WOOF. It seems like it's trying to remember the older set-up.

                      I had the same issue early on but the recommendation above fixed if for me on the phone and laptop.

                        I only view WOOF on computer, but I just wanted to report that I very much enjoy this new format. I find it easy to use and, simple soul that I am, I find the colours and layout very attractive! Well done to GVGJr and all involved. A big thank you!

                          Hi all,

                          I'm currently working with a new IT guy about performing a major upgrade from the old version of vBulletin 4.2.5 to 6.0.7
                          While we are at the initial stages it should happen quickly enough.

                          Like any major changes there are things we will lose and but more importantly gain.
                          For example we will lose things like 'Likes' and 'Thanks' options which will be replaced with Reactions.
                          There are a few other features and add-ons we will lose as well.

                          The upside is that it will address the interface issue with iPhones and we shouldn't see all the ? and funny characters when content is copied over from media sites.
                          I've had a test of the latest vBulletin version and it appears to be better for loading pictures and video's into posts and it should be vastly better visually for members who only use mobile phones. That has been the main driver of the upgrade.
                          It should also be better at stopping those pesky bots for trying to join the site but that's normally just my problem.

                          In any system upgrade there are things that are gained and some features we will lose. Please be prepared to embrace some changes and probably a slightly annoying adjustment period.

                          Now that the draft is completed we typically go through a quieter period anyway except for those annoying Doggy-Bag Takeaway Training reports.

                          Fingers crossed and positive thoughts please
                          Gary a quick question please. When i post something and see an error and go to edit , it removes everything iv written so i can't edit because i can't see anything iv written and have to hit cancel and post the original , is that happening to anyone else , or is it just a glitch in the system ?.

                            Let me check that. Are you on a phone or laptop?
