I tried refresh, still doing it.

wow that is super strange, those are hotlink graphics that should only appear if the graphics are on another site using our url.

I'm trying to upload another one, but it's too large. That "physicsforums.com" is interspersed all over the website.

Weird. I don't see any of that, thank goodness!

Danger, has your problem resolved itself yet? I've had that happen to me before the upgrade too, so I don't think it's an upgrade issue, and it seems to eventually self-correct itself, but is nonetheless really frustrating when you can't see the last page of a thread for a while and it's one you're interested in following.

Edit: I think the problem is fixed. For some reason, this problem happens when there is only one post on the last page (I've even sometimes had 16 posts show up on a page instead of 15...something about that one extra post seems to confuse something somewhere). I posted just a filler reply, and the last page with your post appeared.

I love the new Prime skin! :approve:

I apologise if this question has already been answered, but is LATEX-preview in the works?

Thanks for noticing the skin changes, just a few tweaks, but I think it makes a difference. Hopefully smoother and easier to read. I'll prolly keep tinkering a bit.

It's up to chroot whether or not to add latex preview, go bother him :biggrin:

Great Job, Greg! :approve: :-p

I agree with Monique, the new Skin is very nice and smooth.

Am I the first one to notice the Turkey Forums? :biggrin:
 
  • #47
I love the turkey! :biggrin:

Okay, I needed to clear the cache again to see the green shading (it doesn't look gooey at all! ) and the turkey! Nice touches. :smile:

I guess I'm going to have to remember to clear the cache more regularly as changes appear.

Okay, it doesn't look gooey; the colour resembles (to my eyes) that of the usual gooey stuff. :D Still I prefer the new Prime without the green.

On the homepage in the Prime skin, do the times of the last posts appear? All I seem to get are the days only (like Today and Yesterday).

They're still missing and it's hard to tell if there are new posts since you can't see the time.

If the symbol on the left is white, there are no new posts. If it's green, there are new posts since you last read that forum. You can also double click on the symbol to mark it as read if it doesn't change automatically so you'll know there are new posts when it turns back to green again.

Why not just post the time? :frown: I don't watch colors. <grumble>

I don't know, I prefer seeing the time too, but have been getting used to watching colors in the absence of the time being posted on the index page.

I prefer the time stamp as well.

Zz.

We are aware of the quote problem, it is due to some edits we did for the homework template
