    Are the Archives Gone For Good?

     

    It's been a few days, and neither have the older threads reappeared, nor have I seen any announcements about whether they will or not, so I thought I'd ask.

     

    Are the old threads gone for good, or is it just a facet of the update that's taking a while to finish?

     

    While I'm here, I notice that we can no longer preview how our comment will look before posting it.

    Re: Are the Archives Gone For Good?

    Achives? Are you talking about the ones from years ago? Or did some disappear recently?  If they did disappear over the last couple days, are you sure its not just a matter of changing your forum options to display older posts? 

    As far as previewing your posts, there is a tab near the top of your post that says "Preview".

    So, to recap for everyone.

    If you want to see older posts, click on the Forum Options down at the bottom, it should display a date filter which defaults to "New than 2 months".  Change that to whatever.

    Second, to preview posts, click on the preview tab near the top.

    Now my question, anyone know what the related tab does?  It shows me random posts...  ?

    Is there any way to make the the older posts appear to everyone by default? Or else people are going to keep asking this question, plus I keep having to change the settings constantly..

    ..and what related tab are you talking about?

    Ok, in the administrative settings, under date time, I found a setting, I changed it to Show All.  If that proves to be a problem, we can change it to Newer than 1 year or 6 months or whatever. 

    As to the related tab, when I post a reply, I see at the top of the post window "Compose, Options, Related, Preview"  What is related?

    Thanks for the "show all" default setting, Richard & Prince Karo!

    And if it happens again next update, I'll know to look for "options."

    Thanks for telling me where the "preview" is, too!

    You're welcome, it resulted in improvements for everyone, so it was a good request. :)
