It seems it is no longer possible to start a new thread in the "LabVIEW fans of Lego" forum:

Confirmed : I'm the second victim !

Unfortunately the start time of the first post is still bad: 46 seconds.
Could it be possible to have the post-code on several servers? I am no web guru but something like that might be possible.

Laura,

Where can we found now the user status (on/off line) and his last connection date ?

These were informations I used sometimes to see if an user had the opportunity to read a reply. They were semi-private informations -infos that the user could hide - that most of us decided to keep public.

At least, now , the situation is the same for PC and Mac users. 😄 For years, on my mac, I have been obliged to click the "actualize" button to find out what were the messages I had already read. I hope that while solving this bug on PC's, some time will be devoted to solve it also on Macs ? Or will it be another NI decision to maintain the Windows advantage ? ;):(

Do we have any delete option to delete the threads created by us?

Also, when we post our resume in NI Discussion forums, it appears as google search results for some keywords that match. Is there any way to stop this? If we have delete option, users can login to NI Discussion forumns and can delete by themselves.

Apart not reading other's posts, do you ever open your mail box ?

Hi CC,

I had to fix the mailbox situation.  I was blocking everyone who were not listed in my contacts.  I only realized it when NI was sending course confirmation that I was never receiving.  Sorry about that.

BTW:  "you got mail"  😉

PS: Thanks for writing..  😄

[Laura F.]

Thank you all for your thorough testing of the new upgrade!  Please be patient as I sort through all the issues and report them to Lithium.  I will reply to you posts here as I do that.

Regards,
Laura

I have a problem with the upgrade. I have used to turn off the "Sort Threads by Newest Message Time" setting in the "General Settings" section. However, now it always turns back on when I visit the board.

I have the same problem. In had this problem previously. It had been fixed previously. Apparently somebody forgot a regression test.

Hi Laura,

The issue with the forum not remebering what I looked at is shaping up to be a big pain.

It can't tell if I have seen a thread or not.

It affects usability to such an extent I am concidering calling for a "roll-back" to the previous version of forums.
