Want to thank
@TwitchisMental for designing us a new theme and all the assistance to get our forum back. He has been a tremendous part of getting the look and feel back after the big crash. :worship: :bravo:
Everyone please take a look around and get a feel for the new theme. Let us know if you find any big issues. Somethings we might be able to fix and somethings we had to live without. But overall we now have a super fast forum and no more "slow site" issues. We will be adding some new features as we go too!
Thank you to everyone that stuck with me during this process and a HUGE thanks to
@MoparDave for sponsoring this forum which allowed us to make the jump to our very own dedicated server. :banana: PLEASE consider buying your Mopar parts from https://www.rosevillemoparts.com/ or call Dave direct at 586-859-2575 or Dradcliffe@mikeriehls.com. If we support him he can support us! :grouphug:
We can't thank you enough,
@TwitchisMental, for bringing your expertise to the Forum when we needed it!!
Also, thank you to our amazing Members who tolerated a slow response time and patiently waited for the site to return. Without you, there would be no community, no Forum. You are the BEST!! :bradsthumb:
Thank you Cody and all who worked on this effort
It's all because of you my friend !
Would like to add that if anyone likes the stock theme you can change your own theme view in your profile under "Look and Layout". Click on your user name to get to that area. And you also have the option to go with a "dark" version of the new theme to! :lookatthat:
Bravo! :bravo: looks great! I'm sure I have no idea how much work that was!
Might as well get rid of the "GALLERY" tab on the Home page since "An error has occurred
Sorry, this section isn't available at this time."
And yes, I promote Roseville Moparts on other forums as well. When anyone's looking for a part I add a Roseville link of that part in the thread.

Quick question which may have been asked and answered - is there a way to set the thread to show the most recent post rather than the first post which could be years old?

Yes that is actually a built in feature of SMF that you can enable. Profile/UCP > Look and Layout > and check "Show most recent posts at the top in topic view" . :)
Everything is looking great! Nice work everyone! :clapping:
Another couple quick questions - that I probably know the answer to.
1) Am I the only one that sees my "Envelope" in all the threads?
2) After clicking on my "Nickname" am I the only one that sees my email hyperlink?

Quick question which may have been asked and answered - is there a way to set the thread to show the most recent post rather than the first post which could be years old?
I always used the "NEW" button that is by the thread title. It brings you to the first post in the thread that you haven't seen yet.
Does the Mopar 'E' no longer show Topics that have new threads or are read? The previous one had bold E's for topics with new posts, and 'faded' ones that do not...
Or is it just my imagination?
Also, not trying to be fussy or anything, but is there a way to turn off the confirmation asking if you are sure you want to mark topics or posts as 'read'? Mine always has that second step required to mark a topic or post as read, even if just having read it, or if I am just not interested in that particular post, and want to mark it as read?

Is this it?
@Jay Bee No, that just filters all the posts if read or not...
I am talking about the big E at the start of each topic... It used to be bold if there were new posts in that section, then faded when all read...

If you mean within the message index(topic view), then no you are not crazy.
With SMF 2.1 there are many possible icon options for a post. Anything from a paperclip indicating that it has attachments to user select-able options like a winky face.
Trying to change this overall behavior would be a pain to say the least.. it would also take the customization possibilities out of it.

Mine always has that second step required to mark a topic or post as read, even if just having read it, or if I am just not interested in that particular post, and want to mark it as read?
This is another intentional behavior by the SMF 2.1 software. I can understand the confirmation being annoying, but it is basically to help prevent marking things as read on accident.(Amongst other things) Infact this was such a common requested feature back in 2.0, a mod was made for it haha.
So it was included with 2.1 by default.
@TwitchisMental Thanks for the information! The confirmation to mark as read is no biggie!
The Bold/Faded Board Captions I am talking about are these... (I switched back to default theme to show them)

Ahh if you mean the checkboxes, that is from the recent posts mod that is installed. It is basically to filter where you get the recent posts from.
Unfortunately the mod doesn't really have any options to remove those entirely.
No, the bold 'chat' window icons in that picture, compared to the faded ones in the lower topics...
Thanks to all involved for keeping this forum alive!

I believe I am lost with that one. What is it about them that you are not liking and/or wanting changed.?
Originally, the 'E' next to section topics was bold if unread posts were in topic, and would dim when all posts were read and you went back to main board listing. That no longer works, and the Engine section on mine is always dim, even with new posts in that topic. Here is the comparison showing the difference I see.
I can key in on topics I am most interested in that have new posts much more quickly by using the bold vs dim method, and I believe the theme is supposed to do that, but isn't, per 'New' screen shot shown below? :notsure:
Okay. I see what he's talking about. The really light yellow behind them is hard to see. This is what we had before. Dark blue with a yellow glow if it was unread and a light non lit blue for read.
Since we only have 1 sub board, we would either need to take it out so we don't have sub boards or come up with a 3rd logo or color to show a sub board new topic.
I see the issue. Basically 2.0 only had on off and redirect. 2.1 has on on2 off and redirect. The on2 is a more translucent version of the on.
I will get that resolved.
Edit: Give it a hard refresh(control + f5) and you should be good to go now.
Is there a way to make the unread lit E darker like this?
Also, do we need a 3rd design / color for the "on2"? Something like this?
Alright how does that look :)?
If the sub board highlights the main board one, that suffices for me. That is the way the old one worked.
The reset did the trick for me, and I can tell read and unread sections like used to be!
Kudos to both of you! Thanks for all you do for all of us!
:ohyeah: :ohyeah: :ohyeah:

That would be correct. It hides on smaller screens.
Any chance of getting the "Similar Topics" feature back? If it's too much hassle to re-introduce that, then don't bother. I'm guessing only a small percentage of members/guests referenced it - but I could be wrong.
I can't remember where exactly it was at the bottom, either below the last post in a thread OR below the Quick Reply box.

Is it possible to add a feature to allow hovering over a post's title/subject and have a preview pop-up showing the first paragraph of the post?
A preview is helpful if the title/subject is something ambiguous like "Need Help".

This works for me on my PC desktop. I've noticed you need to click on the reply tab , the one in dark blue near the bottom.( not just the window tab that automatically open) Then type text if you want . Then notice the " click or drag files here to attach them" in heavy black font at the bottom of the reply window. When you do that a window to your files/pictures opens, then you click and drag on the desired picture and drag it over the " click or drag files here to attach them" heavy font, when you do that a dotted outline appears and you simply drag it in the dotted box and let go and it loads.
Works for me, sorry I'm not a big computer whiz, hope that helps?
I am very glad that the new photo attachments will allow more than one photo at a time to be attached.
The old way, opening one attachment window per picture was very time consuming.
This makes loading pictures much easier and will result in more pictures being posted in general.
Thanks yal!!

Ok, I have one beef. Same as I had on the last forum set up.
On all the other forums, when I click on a thread that I have read already it takes me to where I left off or where the new post is.
This forum I have to hit the "new" tab. I tend to forget about the "new" tab and have to reverse out of the thread to hit the new tab instead of scrolling to find the new post.
I know, it's just a few extra clicks but the convenience of the site remembering where I was and taking me there is quite nice.
I don't suppose there is anyway to achieve that is there.
The new forum looks fantastic! :ohyeah: Thanks to everyone involved! :worship:

When I first log in and go to a thread, the back button takes me all the way back to the log in page and not the last page so similar issue. Once I go back to the forum, doesn't do this again. I'm using my laptop with Chrome. No big deal but similar to Blown Motor's issue.
I really like that now when you hover over a posting , that you get a look at the actual text similar to what other sites do.
This is great as it is very easy to skim quickly over all the posts to see what is inside with out actually going to the post totally. Also I noticed now that posting pictures is as simple as going to the bottom and clicking on the " add files " at the bottom. This did not do this before and is a very good improvement. Thanks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another note, some of the requested features or behaviors are actually enabled by using going into profile > look and layout. I do suggest checking those features ;). One option under POSTING is "Return to topics after posting by default" which I believe will solve some of the reported "issues".

Is anyone else seeing this?
When I first log in and go to a thread, the back button takes me all the way back to the log in page and not the last page so similar issue. Once I go back to the forum, doesn't do this again. I'm using my laptop with Chrome. No big deal but similar to Blown Motor's issue.
If you are going to a thread by clicking one of the recent posts at the top and then clicking back... that is the correct behavior.
Quote from: MoparLeo on December 20, 2023, 12:50:54 PMI really like that now when you hover over a posting , that you get a look at the actual text similar to what other sites do.
This is great as it is very easy to skim quickly over all the posts to see what is inside with out actually going to the post totally.
Which is a built in feature of SMF that just needed to be enabled. :)
Quote from: MoparLeo on December 20, 2023, 12:50:54 PM Also I noticed now that posting pictures is as simple as going to the bottom and clicking on the " add files " at the bottom. This did not do this before and is a very good improvement. Thanks.
Yep that is due to a handy plugin made by the SMF Lead Dev Sesquipedalian. I simply installed it :).

@TwitchisMental is the programmer who helped us update the forum. He's the one that came up with the new design and does all the features for us. He's like what @Chryco Psycho is to tuning a car but TwitchisMental is for tuning the forum. :D
Quote from: RzeroB on December 19, 2023, 03:04:45 PMHey Cody @Cuda Cody ... who's your new assistant administrator "TwitchisMental"??
I appreciate the kind words and happy to be of assistance. However just to clarify I am not a full stack programmer.(Although I am learning)
I am merely a web designer/front end coder. I am also very familiar with how web software(especially SMF) and web hosting works :).

I first click on General Topics then a thread under that. Back takes me to the log in, just the first time. All other times goes up a page. Again no big deal.

Hummm that shouldn't happen. I am unable to reproduce too.
Which Operating System and Browser are you using?
Have you tried clearing your cache and cookies?
Do you have any plugins/extensions installed in your browser?
I'm unable to reproduce it. Wondering if it has something to do with the ads since that's about the timing that an ad would pop up? :thinking:

First thing I would try is disabling all extensions and then try to replicate the issue again.
Is there anyway to have a "like" counter?
I know on some of the other sites folks can be "like" whores but I really like it as it kind of validates some folks contributions.
No biggie, just pointing out what I do like about the "competitors".
Wow what an update to the site :banana:
Does the original poster have the option to lock a thread, once started?
I looked for that option on my thread in the Your Restoration project (ROSEVILLE MOPARTS) section - it had gone well over 360 days since last responded to though.

That is a permission that can certainly be enabled.
@Cuda Cody Do you want this enabled?
Thank you
@TwitchisMental That is a good idea
@RusTy/SE It has been enabled and owners of topics can lock them if they choose now.
My add to this thread is that the new forum is light-years ahead of previous.
Thank you Cody and Twitchismental...

@Cuda Cody @TwitchisMental Thanks guys!
Love the new site, can only dream of how work and effort it must have been . If I could ask one thing, it would be that the site sponsor be at the top of the first page. Sometimes it is not easy finding a link to Roseville Moparts . awesome job everybody thankyou
Yes, this site rebuild is now at a pinnacle of perfection and still climbing, yet just as this site is king, the old home (cuda-challenger.com) forum has died.
Any old members could pay there respects and say a little prayer for the old site. Or not??
And it has truly died. Very unfortunate that all the information there has now been lost.
I was going to talk about that in a new thread, but I guess mention here is good enough. Real shame, lots of good info within that forum is now lost. I wonder if some of its sponsors would like to support here and lessen the financial burden on Roseville.
Edit: added the word "support".
Quote from: TwitchisMental on December 12, 2023, 03:55:53 PMWith that said some resources are infact not loading and we are trying to get the source of the issue. There seems to be something wrong with the plugin and have contacted the plugin maker about it.
Just my :alan2cents: re: the "H0W-TO-VIDEOS"
They are all like that unfortunately. Error 404.
Those sure are (were) a valuable resource.
@Jay Bee Can you post the link to the 404 error you're getting.
@Cuda Cody Like cuda hunter said, it's all the videos. This is the link to the first one: Tips and Tricks painting ORGANOSOL

The remaining 10 links (videos) going in order from left to right then down to the next row.
