Please let me know if you see bugs with the new upgrade. The biggest issue is "Cannot Connect to Server" when you try to do anything. Please report such issues here.

Oh, you may not be able to post here, but you might still be able to PM me about errors...feel free to do so.

Thank you!

Scott

Not an error, but a request. The thread post text is very light and low contrast now. It would be easier to read if it had more contrast or was darker text.

Being able to read the thread during replies is a real nice change! :)

Expermienting with changing text color to make it more readable. (bolded)

I think the blue works best. Bold font would work well too.

Yes. Darker text would be lovely. Also, the Multiquote and quote buttons look blurry.

I like the 'turn off signature' option.

I hate it when websites show their "new and improved" version as smaller print, lighter in color, with a more busy background and even more avatars scattered around. And now there is a doubled headed thing to the left of this reply box which seems to say I am a couple or a two headed turtle, and I am posed with a male borg-type creature, with no eyes, nose, or mouth. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

I couldn't get on the site all day and way into last night, so at least I've been reconnected to the Mother Ship. The icon "smiley faces" :unsure: selection is not as clear, crisp and sharp as it used to be. They could stand to be spread out, also. They look a bit smaller, but I'm not sure of that.

On the plus side, the text I am typing right now in this box is readable.

Looking at another page, it seems that the "member since" information under each avatar box on the left to each post is also missing.

I'll look into these. If you need the spell checker try using the Google Chrome browser (it is free), as the browser's spell check features are working in Chrome.S

When clicking on the box (with the pencil through it) to find new posts since my last view, there seems to be an exaggerated delay.

Spell check would be great option, that I depend upon. :wacko:

And I too would like a darker print image.

Not a bug . . . just an asthetic kinda thing . . . and I hope I can explain this . . .

The "box" that all these posts are in looks undersized. It looks like it should be the same size as the "box" that the header is in which would provide room for margins. The right justification/left justification in this "box" is right on the edge with no margin . . . did that make sense?

I agree on the blurry looking MultiQuote/Quote buttons . . . color change?

I like being able to see the previous posts (even when I'm quoting someone).

I like being able to see how many and who are following a thread . . . maybe that was around before and I just didn't know it ;)

I like that the search function can be confined to just a thread or just a forum.

really like the preview button. The tags are interesting too. Is that new? Or did no one ever use them before?

The tags are new. Not yet sure how to take advantage of the feature as a poster, or as a searcher.

The preview was there, but it was really hard to find--you had to hover your pointer over the topic title and then slide right where there were some dimmed icons, one of which was the preview. It is now easy to find.

For those of you who used the little green dot icon for information about the poster, or who wondered when they joined or were last active: hover your pointer over the poster's name at the top of the post (not the photo in the post). A pop-up will appear with (among other things) the member's join date and last active time, and a button to send a message.

I have been told that email board notifications will begin again once you have marked your watched topics as read (past tense). I assume that if you mark the entire board as read all email notifications will begin again.

Take care,

Scott

I just darkened the fonts, if you don't see this try the refresh key. Also, the lost password feature works should you want spell checking bad enough to switch browsers.

Much easier to read! Thank you!

I think I'll just stick with questionable spelling. It'll keep me from becoming too reliant on technology.

Sheesh! No! What I meant was that any question where the person did not know was not "dumb." Some answers are not helpful but that was a general observation and was not meant to e a reference to anything in this or any other topic here on the forum. I was a paraphrase of something I heard many times from one of my high school teachers.

I see darker print !!! I'm not really going blind after all. Just age related cranky. Thanks !

Safari seems to have spell checker wurking. For some wurds, not udders.

Somewhere there is a Password Valhalla, where old passwords go to the Summerlands. The password hints go to the meadows of Folkvanger which is ruled by the Norsk goddess Freyja, who keeps asking the new arrivals the maiden name of their browser. :lol:

      Covid caused reoccurrence of DH without eating gluten

      By Jacki Espo · Posted

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      My only proof

      By Mari · Posted

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
