Ok just checked my Thinking day thread and after every post appears the following; "this post has been deleted by the poster or
administration" then underneath it says thread invalid.
Anyone else getting this?

Yes Helen, getting this on Dizzi's thread
But look at heading across top of page, the line that starts Home/Family Tree. Look like GR are making changes

Ah I see, it's appearing after every post added. Sheeesh!


Mel, if you're still getting the jumping box, have a look at your old thread, the solution is on there.

oops, I posted and it went daft.

Morning Helen, GR have changed the out lay of the site (well mine has changed) so obviously a few blipps in the system. I'll email GR incase they're not aware that a "delete" comment is coming up as soon as anyone posts...

Ok, they've added drop-down menu's to the button at the top, just hover your cursor over, say, messages, and a menu pops up.

Site improvements huh? PMSL

I've let them know.

Yes We are talking about it on General. If you try to delete that stupid message you will lose the whole of the thread. I have done it twice.

DO NOT DELETE THE INVALID THREAD MESSAGE.

I wonder if they have put the dropdown menus on the top buttons so they can remove the Board Summary box on the left to make room for more annoying flash adverts?


*ducks* OK don't shoot the messenger????? PMSL

Ifr this is the finished layout it looks a little amatuerish to me. Why not have community and help on the same line as the others?

This should resolve your jumping text

I had this problem until quite recently. I was using Internet Explorer 7 at the time but the problem persisted in IE8. I tried using the Compatibility Button on the top of Internet Explorer and that resolved the problem for me.

Have you lot also noticed that next to the purple submit button there is now a Preview button.

Wonder if everyone has one or just us norty people who need to read our posts before we send them!!

TeresaW

TeresaW Report 22 Feb 2010 11:42

Janet all my buttons are in line, all on the same line. It is probably your screen settings doing that.

What I don't get is the preview button. What are we previewing? Only the text, and we can see and edit it in the reply box before sending, DERRRR!!! LOL
