Any possible idea of how long it will take to fix? Some of us are going through major withdrawals

What are the problems? I hope it's nothing major.

Has anyone been able to apply BBcode for bold, underlining or italics because I haven't been able to do this. I always used to use CTRL B, CTRL U or CTRL U for these.

I can't find the smileys either.

I've noticed that some of our old posts are very strange in that every time an apostrophe was used you get a # with a string of numbers after it.

Yes. You just select B, I or U in the box above where you type

(Had to test it while I wrote this just in case it crapped out on me )

Smileys are above the posting box too. Just click the little smiley face.

Thank you, but I don't have a box above the box where I type. I can't see anything at all other than the Post Reply box!!!

Ooooh, now I see it. On our old version of WS I had to use compatibility mode in order to use almost everything. I just turned it off and now I see everything. Yippee.

RECOMMENDATION ---To help everyone who are logging in to see the new features for the first time, it would be nice if there was a large "Message Box" somewhere on the main page that would list One thread where people can list any issues or questions that they may be experiencing.

Im not sure if this is that thread or not. Ive been trying to find the place where everyone maybe discussing any issues they are having.

So far for me I LOVE the new look and feel to our new WS home. Nice Job Tricia.

Thanks AnaPisces. Much appreciated.

I see other people starting to list questions and issues in individual threads they have been part of so I think having some large MESSAGE somewhere to announce that would help everyone.

Most of us will have similar questions and directing us all to the right thread will be helpful.

Agreed. You make good points. @Tricia @WS Admin could this be possible?

 

[Angela_Beckett]

Tricia? Hello.Wondering if wouldn't be better to shift the items of the widget in the sidebar, placing "latest post" ahead of "new thread" and "Recent thread".
Love the redesign so far,

Can the help discussions be in one place or at least very visible on the site?

Most are being discussed in the Welcome to Websleuths thread.
