• Issue Title: iCloud is blocking emails from Treeleaf

Closed Issues

• Issue Title: Youtube links are not natively embedded
• Description: This is working as expected. In vB4 (old forum version) a third-party plugin was used to convert Youtube URLs into BBCode. This isn't compatible with vB6. We should now use the video tag/button in the editor and paste Youtube links inside if we need them embedded into a post.

  Issue Title: Tapatalk Not Working
• Description: This is expected. There's no Tapatalk module within vB6, so it will not load within the application. After discussion, it was decided the mobile version of the site should be used, due to prior server issues with Tapatalk, privacy issues, etc.

Is it possible to reply to this thread and is the reply indexed for search?

Just dipping my toes in the water. It looks lovely. Will post any bugs I see. Thank you all for your hard work.

[Ryumon]

First thing I notice is that my signature isn't showing up on posts.

[Bion]

you have to turn it on in User Settings

Just a test to see how photos look...

If I choose medium, it's the above size. If I choose large, it's much wider than the window on my browser on a 13" MBA.

Looked pretty hard in Settings, did not come up with a field for signature.

[Kotei]

Hello,
in the top right menu with your name, there is "User Settings".
In there is "Account"
and there is "Show Signature" to check and "Edit Post Signature" in the "Conversation Detail Options" to change it.
Gassho,
Kotei sat/lah today

[Ryumon]

I did find it, but it’s not appending to posts.

[Kotei]

Hello,
two lines above the "Edit Post Signature" there is "Show Signature" to be checked.

edit: it looks like it is doing this not when replying / commenting? hmm

Gassho,
Kotei sat/lah today,

[Ryumon]

If I go to new topics at the top of the forum, it shows some new topics, but a lot of old ones. I also don’t see any way to mark all posts as read.

[Kotei]

There are some old "Articles" that slipped through our fingers. We were not aware of them, as we haven't been using Articles.
It is on our cleanup list. Thank you!
In the Channel (ex. sub-forums or forums) and also the main "Forum" view, there is all the way down on the page a "Mark Channels Read" or "Mark this Channel Read"
Gassho,
Kotei sat/lah today.

Not a big deal, but the logo takes up a lot of vertical space at the top of the page when you’re using a mobile device. It might be helpful if it was made a bit smaller for small screens.

I was going to upload a screenshot, but it said that the limit is 293K. The limit for photos when I try above was 2 MB. Maybe these limits should be increased a bit.

[Ryumon]

Out of curiosity, I tried loading the forum in Tapatalk. Nothing loaded. As I said this morning at the teahouse, the mobile view in a browser is fine, so I’m perfectly happy to not use it again, but there may be some people who expect to be able to use Tapatalk.

[Kotei]

I believe there is no Tapatalk module installed now. I am not sure where the discussion on that stands.
I understand that some would like to receive push notifications, which vbulletin (the forum software) does not support, but Tapatalk does.
VBulletin suggests using the subscribe and notify by email function, but that is probably not really a modern replacement.
On the other hand, Tapatalk requires a module in the core of the forum, which allows them access to a lot of private data. Imho a security nightmare.
We've also had issues in the past, which made our forum inaccessible when the Tapatalk servers, it needs to continuously talk to, are not available.
So yea... personally I think it should be really, really very much needed and wanted in order to install.
Hmm.

[Ryumon]

Should the Unsui's Corner be publicly accessible? Because it is.

[Bion]

That’s for dharma talks, for unsui to share something if they wish.

Sat and lah

[Ryumon]

Okay, I didn’t know if that was the private, top-secret, keys to enlightenment forum.

[Ryumon]

I don’t see how to make a threaded reply to the replies to my posts above. What am I missing? If I tap a reply, There’s no button that lets me reply to the reply.

[Administrator]

Use the "comment" button. Like this! ^_^

--Sekishi (pretending to be a big cheese)

[Koushi]

Also on mobile, “Comment” can be found in the three dots menu at the bottom of posts — along with the “Quote” option

[Sekishi]

Just a note to everyone - we have an issue queue for tracking issues / bugs / etc. So please know that things noted here will be added to the queue, discussed, etc. So just because one of the "Treeleaf Engineering" types doesn't respond right away doesn't mean we've not noted the feedback.

Deep bows,
Sekishi
