NEW FORUM DISCUSSION

[KZ1000]

I Hate it!!! Cannot even find For Sale section, I click on New Posts and read up on them, I come back a short while later and go back to New Posts, (as its the only forum I can find) and it has several new posts, all the old ones and the one I am trying to respond to IS GONE, It was "accessories For Sale" by simpleman I believe, I looked it up by name and found it but it did not show up in recent posts, Wonder how many more posts I'm missing. I use to scan RatRods all day on my phone, Now its impossible to even get the page to open, the page opens to the new bike picture and thats it, won't go any further. Sorry but this guy just cannot manuever thru the site anymore. Back to the Cabe.

Thanks for your patience as we try to work out all the bugs. We launched the new site less than a week ago and it's just not possible to achieve perfection in that amount of time. I know that's not easy to understand these days, but you're looking at a one man show right now trying to make everyone happy.

What would be really helpful would be for folks to give technical details like browser type, version of browser, computer's operating system, etc. I get the emotion tied to interrupting people's sales transactions, but I'm really wanting constructive criticism if possible.

OK I just left and came back and this thread, NEW FORUM DISCUSSION is not on the Recent Posts list even thou CMAN responded. I had to go to My Content to find it. What I am saying is not ALL New Posts are showing up.

 

[KZ1000]

Sorry Steve, Didn't mean to ruffle feathers here Just frustrating not getting what I want when I want it. I'll relax and wait it out. I am a Diehard Ratrodder and am not going anywhere. I give you the utmost credit for doing what you do. Rick

Yeh, Doesn't show up for me either. There may be a setting that is off, I will check with Steve.

This new software operates differently, so there will be a learning curve and lots of patience needed.

I'm not totally familiar with the Android version, but on the iPhone version it seems that you can do quite a bit.

Some examples would be...

• Reply to threads/posts
• Share threads/posts
• Subscribe to threads
• Edit posts
• Delete posts
• View Subscribed Posts
• View Unread Posts
• Check your "Convos" (PMs)
• Send Messages (Conversations)
• View Participated threads
• View List of Forums
• Search
• View Member List
• Attach photos to posts

I also have quite a few moderating tools to use in it as well.

Not bad for a free app.

Here are the Android screen shots.

Does the "news feed" show up on tapatalk ? I'm just now getting the hang of it on the full site, works pretty much like facebook does with people you "follow"

 

[deorman]

Still miss the old system. Not as much as being a 30 yr old though.

 

[deorman]

Is there something like "who's online" anymore?

 

[user 135]

Off to the right is a list on the main page. Right below the ebay ads.

 

[Rat Rod]

Can someone running IE10 and IE11 tell me if the Ebay banners are wacky looking...i.e. scattered all over the screen?

 

[oldfart36]

Click on the persons username and then click "Start a Conversation"

Saw that, didn't know whether to pull that trigger or not. Thanks.
