Ou7shined Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1316865345' post='1383798'] My picture is squashed! Ive tried putting a smaller one up, but it didnt help. What size do they need to be? [/quote] I had to resize my gif to 100x100 pixels to get it to fit. It's a shame it has to be square like. Quote
dave_bass5 Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 I can't get the mobile version working on my iPhone. When i select the hyperlink to use it I just get taken back to the page im already on. Anyone else seeing this? Quote
dave_bass5 Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 Does anyone know how to cancel a post (before its posted) from the Quick reply box? At the moment the only way i can see to do it is to go in to More Reply Options and cancel from there. I know i can leave the page but i might find im replying to the wrong post/quote etc and so want to start over. Im probably missing something very obvious. Quote

I often get stuff out of my system in the quick reply box then don't bother clicking reply. I wonder if I have been posting too much of my inner grumpy old man recently? Quote
Ou7shined Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 I'm still seeing lots of IE8 compatability issues and I'm just wondering if this is one of them or is any one else experiencing this since the change... When I click on links or pics in posts rather than opening a new tab (as is my browser's default setting) on BC it just opens the link in the same page. I have the habbit of closing windows when I'm done with them rather than navigating backwards and 9 times out of 10 I loose my page and have to try and find it again from my emails or whatever. Can this be switched back to the way it was? - eg. links open in new window/tab. Quote
BigRedX Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Links within the Basschat site no longer open in a new window or tab on Mac browsers too. Is that your problem or is IE8 opening all links (including those to other sites) in the same window/tab. I too would prefer all links to open in a new Window or Tab. Quote

BigRedX Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) Ok... Does [url=http://www.dickvenom.com]this link to an external site[/url] open in a new window/tab? How about [url=http://basschat.co.uk/topic/151799-dick-venom-the-terrortones/]this link to another basschat page[/url]? For me the first always opens up in a new window or tab irrespective of the browser used. The second always opens in the same window/tab. Edit: Looks like something to do with the way that the forum handles links because the link to the external site no longer announces the fact in the status bar that it will open a new window or tab even though it does.

dave_bass5 Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 Ped, Are we going to get the fact that email notifications are showing code rather than symbols (like £, %, & etc) fixed? Quote
ped Posted September 29, 2011 Author Posted September 29, 2011 I hope so, the whole notification thing has been raised and we're waiting on an answer at the moment. I think they're ususally quite responsive so fingers crossed. Quote
Netballman Posted September 29, 2011 Posted September 29, 2011 How do you change your password? I went to my settings but can't find anything in there...? Quote

Clarky Posted October 26, 2011 Posted October 26, 2011 Don't know if anyone else has highlighted this but, if I try to send a PM on my iPad, the message box pops up but is cut off on the top left hand side ... so you cannot click in it or type in it Quote
