This should be a fully responsive design, so you can increase font sizes through the browser itself. https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000779.htm

This should be the correct answer.

The folder was moved by mistake when I moved all of the Xenforo files. I restored the archive and it appears to be back online.

I get it. I can technically rename the button in the language file if it really bothers everyone. But it would not actually change what happens on the back end. As far as the public is concerned, the post is “deleted” when hidden. No one actually sees it anymore except for the moderating team. My guess was if someone was harassing others and deleting the posts as a way to avoid moderation, I could see why this setting was the way it is. I was not subject to the explanation on why things were done like this. I simply carried the action over.

If you’re on mobile, it’s inside of the mega menu. Click the button with 3 lines on the top right of the screen. Then choose Mark Site Read. Otherwise there is a link to mark content read to the right of the screen

The old site did not have a “delete” function. It simply hid the post. Admins/mods could always see the posts deleted by someone. That logic was applied here as well.

In a community of almost 10,000 people, I would not expect everyone to like the changes. Hopefully as you get a chance to use the site more, you'll find some features you'll like more and that the new software will grow on you over time. I appreciate the feedback. If there is something that would be especially more useful to have back, feel free to share. I obviously can't promise anything, but I'm happy to look into it.

It's set to the default value of 5 minutes. This value is set per member group, so I can change it pretty easily. I'm open to some suggestions on what to change it to.

This SHOULD make it easier to manage going forward. Just literally tap the Quote button whenever you want it to insert that post's text into your message. You can do it anytime in the reply... before you've typed it, as you're typing it, or literally after you're done.

When you click the "Quote" button, it will insert it wherever your cursor is at in the reply window. For example, I'm going to quote Luv2play's post AFTER typing these first couple of sentences. I'm now also typing some more text and then going to quote 7829... You can do it opposite of that however... you can type your reply, then just put your cursor where you want the quote to be and simply press the Quote button on the post you want to insert.

Close, but the answer is "C, None of the above." I had to adjust a permission setting. I went though all of the permissions already in the Member Group settings. It's what says Members can do X, but Moderators can do Y. There is another permissions area in the Profile section that covers viewing birthdays. The default value was set to allow anyone to view the date of birth. I changed it to allow members to view their own birthdays and for moderators to view any.

The storage cost for Wasabi is actually pretty cheap. It comes out to $6 per month per TB of storage. That means we spend $72 per year for each TB of storage long term. This is MUCH MUCH cheaper than trying to scale the cost of the server's built-in storage.

Yes and no. Yes - You CAN attach files. No - Our server itself is not hosting them. We're using a file storage company called Wasabi to host images. This provides us with 1TB of storage and no bandwidth limits. It basically uploads the images there and automatically embeds the link into the post for you.

Yes. Click on the mega menu button first, then click on the mailbox icon. In my screenshot below, it's the three lines to the right of the logo. For mobile devices, you have the extra step because there is not enough screen "real estate" to have the extra buttons on the main display.

Yes. Below the search box is an option to display unread content. Just click that link. As a reminder, the search system is still not 100% yet as the indexes are still being rebuilt. "New" content is automatically being indexed as posted, but all older posts are still being worked on.

No. There has not been a change in policy. However that section is new and not fully "developed" yet.

Yes, it is.

I’m the first to admit it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. This is a big overall change to ask from the community and I get it. If there is anything I can do to make it a little easier, I’ll do it. My goal is to give members as many options as possible to handle our many and varying preferences.

The topic index/rebuild will occur after the post index/rebuild occurs. We need the posts finished before we rebuild topics themselves to prevent problems.

Or ask the guy who can dig into the database itself. 🤪

This is a copy/paste straight from the admin section... I have not created rank badges (graphics) yet. That will eventually (tm) be done.
