    Looks great overall! It was a little bit of an adjustment for the eyes and learning the new options and icons, but the changes are good!

    It seemed a bit washed out at work, but looks great at home on my Mac. Maybe it's my work monitor? I looked at the settings options but didn't see a way to change colors or background hue. Is there?

    The only other thing I was a bit picky about was that I tend to use the new posts option to catch up on the latest. Skimming through the threads here gives a somewhat abbreviated look at the subject column and doesn't always allow the user to see the full title. When routing direct through the main page of the forums it gives the titles more real estate and doesn't seem to be an issue there.

    Thanks for all the hard work and great new features. I'm looking forward to trying the mobile version!

    How about the website's "icon" which appears on the left of the address bar in IE, and also appears as the icon used on my "Favorites Bar" link to Intercot.

    It's currently a dark blue square with what appears to be a crossbreed between a check mark and the letter V in White. Didn't it used to be the "yin and yang" looking circles like is displayed at the very top-right corner of this page?

    Hey John, one other item I'm noticing is that the reply box is only limited to six lines displayed whereas I think the previous software gave you more of a view of your response. It's not a show-stopper, but it's great to proof your response in one glance.

    The new software overall is great, but it's the people and the content that keeps us coming back!

    If you want more than 6 lines - click on the Go Advanced button and from there - you get the old options including a bigger messaging interface window

    What's the mobile site called ? The only app I get when I type in Intercot is the podcast one.
    16 trips to "The World"

    Last trip - April 2018 - Polynesian
    Next trip to WDW - December 2018 - Beach club

    There is no dedicated mobile app at present (though you can use tapatalk to browse the forums thru an app). I am actually looking into doing an app for android and iphone for the forums. Need to get myself a developer account first though.

    For now, if you browse the boards in a mobile browser, you should be directed to the mobile versions of the boards automatically.

    WooHoo! The old icon is back! I didn't realize how much I disliked the other one until the old one was restored, it's my daily "Welcome Home".

    Thanks!

    More complicated than that - vBulletin has the availability for me to do an app that allows you to access the forum if you have a google and apple developer account. They don't offer it for windows phone - but you can do tapatalk on Windows Phone ad it works great.

    It's all good - I need to purchase that add on, if I do, it would give you the ability to take away something you clicked on by mistake.

    John,

    I'm getting used to the new forum. I am struggling a little bit with one area, though.

    When I use the boards, I access them through the "Discussion" tab, then "Quick Links", then "Today's Posts". What I have noticed with the change is that on the thread titles on "Today's Posts", some of them are longer and they get cut off, where as before you could see the thread title in its entirety. If there is a simple way to adjust that where the whole thread title is in view or a fix to where you can see it without opening the whole thread, that would be so helpful. This is just something I have noticed with the change - not sure if there is a fix for it, but I thought I'd mention it.

    If the problem is with this user, please advise.

    Thank you so much for all that you do. You are the BEST!!!
    Carrie

    Unfortunately, the way it's designed, it has to fit in one line - and that's why it truncates at a certain number of characters.

    The what's new tab shows longer titles - but that shows posts in the order they were made instead of topics - so maybe using a combination of both will get you what you are looking for.

    Sorry, in general, I think the positives of the upgrade outweigh the negatives - but I understand your frustration...
