New and changed features - Praefectusclassis - 10-26-2015 This new forum system has many new features already built-in, and I'll be adding some in the near future. Any new and changed features sufficiently interesting to mention, will be listed here:
RE: New and changed features - Renatus - 10-28-2015 (10-26-2015, 12:01 PM)Praefectusclassis Wrote: Birthdays! In your profile you can now add your birthday and select whether only your age or your entire date of birth should be shown.Also, if you do not want to reveal your full date of birth and do not fancy changing your age each year, it will let you enter just your year of birth, which the old system would not do. Incidentally, is there a way of accessing one's profile without going to the Members List or finding a post and clicking on one's avatar? RE: New and changed features - Praefectusclassis - 10-28-2015 At the top left, it should say 'User CP'. Try that.

That leads to 'Account Summary' and on the left, at the bottom of the section headed 'Miscellaneous', it has 'View Profile'. Thanks, I'd missed that. It's a bit more involved than under the old system, when you could just click on 'Profile', but certainly easier than the other two methods I mentioned. RE: New and changed features - Renatus - 10-28-2015 Even easier: on the Index page, scroll down to 'Who's Online'. If your name is there, click on it and you go straight to your profile. RE: New and changed features - Flavivs Aetivs - 10-29-2015 IMO we should change the moderator color from Silver to possibly something like blue or something. The silver is too hard to see/read against the background. Also, I highly recommend everyone go to their options and click "display posts in classic mode." That way it does it like the old RAT and it's more fluent and less cluttered. RE: New and changed features - Renatus - 11-01-2015 I see that some members have in their details a flag showing the country that they are from but others do not. Is there a way of adding this? I can't see one. RE: New and changed features - Praefectusclassis - 11-01-2015 There should be, but for some reason the option isn't showing in the member profile edit-screen. I can do it by hand via the admin section, but wouldn't enjoy having to do so for everyone. :-) RE: New and changed features - Nathan Ross - 11-01-2015 (10-29-2015, 11:59 AM)Flavivs Aetivs Wrote: I highly recommend everyone go to their options and click "display posts in classic mode." That way it does it like the old RAT and it's more fluent and less cluttered. That is a good idea - looks a lot neater. Took me a few moments to work out how to do it though! To get there, go to 'User CP' (top left corner of main page), then 'Edit Options' in the 'Your Profile' section on the left. Tick the box for 'classic mode'.

If I can't do it myself, I shall have to do without it. It won't kill me. RE: New and changed features - Vindex - 11-05-2015 Just noticed this as my status Tribunus Angusticlavius Any chance the spelling could be changed, please? RE: New and changed features - Praefectusclassis - 11-05-2015 Is there a typo? I must be blind RE: New and changed features - Vindex - 11-07-2015 (11-05-2015, 06:37 PM)Praefectusclassis Wrote: Is there a typo? I must be blind Aug not Ang? RE: New and changed features - Praefectusclassis - 11-09-2015 Nope. It's tribunus angusticlavius -> narrow-stripe tribune, the equestrian ranked tribune.
