New site flows smooth as light thus far.

Hey there,

Here are a few tips on finding stuff - and this place is filled with stuff - but I'll show you the main ones for now..

1 - When you click on your username on the top right corner, you will get this:



This is where you get to your UserCP, or directly change your avatar (maximum dimensions are 150px X 150px), change your signature, see if you have alerts (white means no, red means yes and then clicking on it will get a window to pop up) and finally, one of the places where you can log out.

2 - Home



This is where you will find the Shoutbox and Recent Threads.

3 - Portal



The Portal is where - on your right hand side - you will find New Posts, Today's Posts and if you got any PMs but trust me, if you get a PM, you won't miss it LOL

New Posts - Today's Posts and PMs:



.

If you are on mobile (cell phone or tablet) and are getting an authorization code mismatch while trying to log in..

Go to the Portal - on Cell & Tablets, that would be the second icon from the left, beside the Home icon.

Logging in there will let you in.

This isn't a site issue, it's a platform issue which will be resolved in the next upgrade.

This is in case you have questions and can't log in..

Or if you want to inquire about something without logging in..

Or if you want to have an idea of what the Forum looks like..

It's funny how I discover stuff by mistake, meaning I'm not actually looking for that but then I go "Hey...now, that's cool !!!"

Exactly how I found THIS feature.

To see ALL threads, hover over the Recent Threads on the index page, like this:




It says 'Show More Threads'... now click on   ~ Recent Threads ~


BAM !!!!


What do I have a feeling that there is a LOT of thingies like this that we're not even aware of...

Marc.
