We now have a graphical indicator on how full your pm box is. Pointless, but a bit cool.

Added some stats as well. Quite pointless but because I installed collapsable forums you can just hit the minus and make them go away.

Member info will now tell you how long someone has been a member of board for, some system info available and some time zones so you can see where other are. There should be a new notification of a pm and you can now use google search direct from the board. Oh and in case you haven't noticed, a scrolling news bar so I can pester you with pointless notices :shifty:

I've only been accessing the forum via mobile recently, everything looks good so far. Can't say I've noticed anything that I don't like but fear not I'll soon let you know when I do ;)

Newshound now up and running again. Seems to be working fine just now. Should update news on an hourly basis. Any issues, let me know.
All posts are in the new Newshound RSS feed forum.

Looking good Alez, our canine friend seems to be doing the job well.
That's on that basis that I'm not checking all the sites to see if they've posted any updates ;)

New version of vse abbc3 advanced BB code installed. Not sure whether it will make tables work or not, but any other issues, when posting, then please let me know.

under the hood it is still this for the menu on my side:

</select>
<input type="button" class="abbc3_button" name="copybbcode" value=" " style="background-image:url('./ext/vse/abbc3/images/icons/copy.gif');" onclick="bbspecial('abbc3_copy')" title="Copy selected text">
<input type="button" class="abbc3_button" name="pastebbcode" value=" " style="background-image:url('./ext/vse/abbc3/images/icons/paste.gif');" onclick="bbspecial('abbc3_paste')" title="Paste copied text">
<input type="button" class="abbc3_button" name="plainbbcode" value=" " style="background-image:url('./ext/vse/abbc3/images/icons/plain.gif');" onclick="bbspecial('abbc3_plain')" title="Remove all BBCode tags from the selected text">

This is the extra code your missing for tables.

<button id="tables-button-switch" type="button" class="icon abbc3_button responsive-hide" onclick="document.getElementById('tables-button-selections').style.display = 'block';document.getElementById('tables-button-switch').title = 'Select a Table';" title="Show Table Selections"><i class="icon fa-table fa-fw icon-blue" aria-hidden="true"></i></button>

If that's missing then no graphical table. No idea why but it doesn't stop you posting tables, you just have to use the raw bbcode which I've made human friendly in your tables on GPU's. Still have no idea why only myself and scole have it as I can find no permission based reason. It's a mystery. I can always tabulate data for you if you give me it in a readable list.Not ideal, but until I figure it out, best I can do.

Good to hear. I guess you had to edit the code ? I don't think the change in bb code made the table button visable.

Forgot about that table. It's so good I've copied it as a seperate post in Linux forum.
I've rebuilt the tables for GPU Crunching on a budget: AMD in the hardware forum.

Woooo Hooooo :text-woo:

Issue had nothing to do with permissions. There was an error in the CSS coding which meant that the button was not displaying for non admins. Can finally strike this one off my list. :happy-cheerleadersmileyguy:
