Forum Software Update Question

[Flight Now]

[Lex Talionis]

All of this IT stuff is way above my pay grade but I thought I would just toss this one thing out. Some of the websites and at least one forum I used to be on had this annoying thing that every time you logged on-- or even changed pages, it would ask if you wanted to "share you location".

Now I don't know if that was a bug, or just a means of a website monetizing--- or sharing data for the purpose of monetizing, but it was annoying.

If that is a feature standard on a version I would say I don't like that. If it is only just a feature that can be turned off and not used then fine.

That's all I got.

How about the one that makes coffee and does dishes??





Don't ask me, I know zip about forum software However, smitting was very cool! One that allows smitting!

I guess "Handguns and Ammunition" changed their software recently, because I've started getting "Schannel" errors for the last couple of months.

Could be my MS Internet Explorer too, because the error pops up on a couple of other sites.

I'm not sure what they upgraded to.

XenForo also had great mobile support for themes that is mostly automatic. So using phones and tablets does not require Tapatalk.

That's huge in my book.

Not sure what's going on but recently my page switched to the iphone version. I can't seem to get it to go back to the version I prefer. The blue one. I'm not tech savvy. Can someone help me?

All the way to the bottom of the page there will be a thick blue bar.

Left side, there is a drop-down menu.

Pick 'Calguns 1.0'. That's what I do.

Thank you for the info librarian. It is not working though I am using a samsung s9+ to browse. Generally bottom left corner would allow me to switch formats. Although a few days ago I was automatically switched to the iphone format. Nothing I try will allow me to switch back. I've discussed issue with another senior member and he has the same issue using a mobile device. I do not own a computer, so this is my only way in. This iphone version doesn't allow me to do many of my normal functions.( i.e. read sent messages, give itrader rating.etc) I do not like this format. Help get me out of it please.

So what's happening with the update?

It's still going to happen but I've run in to a few snags one being time to deal with the aftermath.

But a big one is I have yet to figure out a way to carry over the iTrader ratings.
Almost everything else can be handled and what can't is more mild loss of 'backstage' functionality that I can live with but the iTrader everyone likes so much is a problem.

I get it, some people have a lot of feedback showing their integrity, and I want to find a way to let them keep it.

Cool. I was just wondering.

I've never taken on a project like this so I have no idea what you have to do. I can only imagine how much work it will take.

And, because I know that I'd like to say thank you for what you've done in creating and keeping this community going.

Does the new forum software have a market / user rating version? If so, could an assessment be made to custom import a users history from iTrade?
