I've no idea Mr E, like how they vanished now!

Bit like 40 of my post count - yesterday afternoon then. I also still can't use any of the top smileys too.

Not sure if this is just me or what, but ive posted a new thread in the 'home cinema' section, but cant edit the post?

Yep, i am pretty sure there is no edit option anymore, which can be abit of a worry.

Well, i thought the option had gone, but i have just gone back to confirm that on one of my previous posts and the edit option did work, so perhaps it is just you.

Some observations -

I can edit my posts, even the ones replied to.

The logged in/out blobs have disappeared.

I find it irritating that unless a post has been replied to since I last went in, I cannot go straight to the last post.

If I post at the bottom of a page (as in it will be the last post on that page) whn I post the message I get taken to the next page (which has no posts) and have to go back a page to see mine.
 
Seems to work fine, the 'Vote' button appears no problem. Are you using an iPad 1 or 2? And assume you've logged in...

Austin/JD/Mr E:

Please bring back the little 'red/green' blob.

1. Austin is on holiday
2. JD is no longer with us
3. Mr E has no idea why it vanished, and thus even less idea how to restore it
4. It's hardly the end of the world
 
Yup, aware it's gone, not sure why, tech team has been notified but a bit under-staffed this week. Will get it restored when we can.
 
I can't change my avatar. I've tried several times but the current pic keeps popping back or deletes altogether. I've also uploaded my new pic (which is a jpeg 85 x 68 px, 2.1 KB) to photobucket but can't see a way of using any link from that. I also tried deleting all the whathifi cookies, logged back in but still no joy.

JD's long term plan to get brought back as a highly paid consultant on a day rate has started then, with the slow acting virus initiated when his admin account was disabled finally kicking in and starting to corrupt the forums 😉

OK, I'll stick with the one I've got. 🙁

Quite enough of that John! Shouldn't you be spending more time with your Naim Uniti?

Just emailing you because I can still only post with Rich Text Disabled...is this a problem with the new forum using explorer 8?

I cant actually post post copied pictures into the forums...i.e. what are you listening to.

There is a problem in Explorer 8 - see here for details. And you can only post pictures hosted elsewhere: see here for more on that.

Guess we'll have to!

The annoying thing is that a new avatar shows up fine in your account settings but doesn't transfer on to the forum page.

To be more accurate, there's a problem *with* IE8/9, in that Microsoft are still incapable of building a browser that works... Turn on compatibility mode (as in 'compatibility with the real world') and it works fine. Alternatively, resizing the text window makes it editable.
