new iboats site

[iboats_tim]

AllDodge , when you're on the site, do you see your username in the top right corner of your screen or does it say "log in?" The issues you're having were consistent with this issue and I believed we had fixed it for everyone today.

 

[alldodge]

I see my name and can get to messages link. Will try again to see if I can do a pic and change my email

 

[alldodge]

Viewing is better but still unable to change anything on my profile.

Tried to upload a pic again and screed went a shade of gray and never came back, had to refresh and it took me back to message box. When it was at this state the bottom of the screen showed link address

AllDodge, I am almost certain I know how to fix your account. We somehow got some wires crossed and have two different emails for you in two different places. Would you like your account to be associated to your gmail address or yahoo? I would send you a PM about this but I know you will at least be able to see it here.

Once I get you updated things should be much better! Please tag me in your response when you see that so I can get you fixed ASAP! I'm terribly sorry for all the trouble.

iboats_tim use the gmail account
Also the wide area is back, unable to see anything to the right of the PREVIOUS button. No page numbers nor writing.

I am getting PM's and have responded, but I'm not getting any notifications, just logging in and finding them

 

[iboats_tim]

Hey AllDodge, for whatever reason I could only get one side of my system to update so I had to use your yahoo one for now (I'll get it updated to your gmail when I can but I wanted to make sure I got your account fully working in the interim).

Let me know if everything is working better for you now. I would recommend logging out, logging back in, and resetting your cache (let me know what type of device you're using and I can explain how to refresh your cache if you need help).

I ran into a couple other users where email addresses weren't synced and getting them synced again did the trick. I'm going to try and do an export of our databases to see if there are other accounts being effected by this.

Hoping functionality will be much better for you now!

My username no longer shows up. It did before I fixed my password problem.

 

[alldodge]

iboats_tim I logged out/in and afterwards I was able to change my email to the gmail one. Screen looks better and I'm able to see the hole page, hope it stays that way

Tried to upload a pic and it said unknown error but least it didn't lock up. Will try again in a bot

 

[alldodge]

Use a windows laptop, win 7 and Explorer 11

Still getting message of "Unknown Error" with attempting pic upload

Woohoo! The drop-down header issue is fixed! THANKS!! :rockon:

I disappeared for me too so you're not alone. Looks like one thing we were fixing broke this...we're looking at it. If you click where your avatar is supposed to be or visit any part of the site outside of the forums everything shows up as normal. Hoping to be able to fix this tonight

You can refresh your cache by hitting control + F5. Let me know if that helps any. Which button are you using to try and upload with?

 

[alldodge]

Unable to see if there area messages until I click the image in the top right corner, then I show up and it shows messages

When done image goes blank has if I'm not logged in but I still am.

Selected another page and get nothing but a white screen, the next pages never comes back. I'm not hung up, because I can go back to the forum and find the pages. Only seems to happen if there was more then one post on a thread, and I go to the thread using the message link.

Have done that several times, and it goes back to the forum page, not the page I was on. Also nothing is posted, I just select to restore and then post without pic

I'm using attach function

 

[alldodge]

Select clip board
Select upload attachments
Select pic in computer folder - then get unknown error

New Page Tech Issues.-

Don't use tablets nor smartphones due to its reduced size, don't plan going to the optometrist any time soon to use them, to access Iboats nicely without having eye fatigue nor force the vision have united the best of the old and new world computer technology till all the tech issues regarding font size, color, page size, other tech issues have been corrected to please most forum members if not all.

Have hooked an old 10 inch Notebook to a 34 inch LED TV with via their HDMI ports, can scroll up or down and write text via an attaced wireless keyboard and mouse at a distance of around 10 feet. Using Google Chrome with Win 7 Pro software can enlarge or reduce text to my desire size. One thing found right away was not being possible to login in as couldn't find the upper round figure to log in, reducing the page to 90% solved the issue.

​

Find the font usedt is reduced, narrower and much lighter compared to Iboat's Logo or previous page update specially at the main forum page no matter if using a 34 inch TV screen as a monitor.

​

The more you enlarge the page say 110-125 ot bit larger the more the write someting window will shrink horizontally and vertically accodingly.

​

Seems will take long to get used to this new page, patience is mandatory..

Happy Boating

I've heard the feedback on font sizes on the topics list and we're going to get those fixed so they are easier to read. We will also be making some tweaks on the mobile view to make those easier on the eyes as well.

Pleasing all forum members is absolutely the goal here. While we've had plenty of unforeseen issues with this new launch, we're committed to getting this right. What you see today is far from the finished product. We're in the process of securing additional resources to get things fixed here more quickly.

I really appreciate yours and everyone's patience with this whole process. Rest assured that I have read every piece of feedback this week and we have a whole queue of tasks for our developers to fix.

I very much regret how frustrating we've made this experience for everyone thus far and I'm sorry how much disruption it has caused. Having seen firsthand how passionate and dedicated this community is you all deserve the best possible experience and I'm committed to delivering that.

I appreciate the forum no matter how it looks .. Strange thing though when I tried to log in after resetting my pw it would not except the new pw again .. I had to change my pw again to get logged in ..Hope i don't have to do that every time ... Idk maybe I did something wrong ...

 

[iboats_tim]

We got that issue fixed from earlier where you were no longer seeing your name and notifications in the upper right hand corner of the screen so everything should be back to normal there.

sphelps that's strange and shouldn't have happened. If you run into that again let me know so I can look into it for you. Thanks for your support!

Yes, that is working again.

I had the same issue. Resetting the password again fixed it, so far, so good. I was able to reuse the first reset password.
