Site upgrade announcement -latest info!

[NannyGreen]

OK, going to see if I have worked this out, apologies to Bren In Pots for using them as a guinea pig! It works, please ignore the previous question

[Snoop Puss]

NannyGreen that's a neat trick. I've been intrigued on reading your latest posts. Have I been able to do the same? I see it's shunted back to the beginning of my post. Never mind. You'll be able to tell me if it works.

It surely has Snoop Puss I got notified and everything Not really a soshil meedja person but since the crazy covid has me under house arrest I thought I would reach out in a safe, secure sort of way.

[NannyGreen]

Just out of interest Nicos is there any update on the 'seeing who liked your post' situation? People keep liking my posts and I wish I knew who they were.

[Snoop Puss]

^Patience seems to be essential, NannyGreen. We've been commenting on this and other things for a while now.

And thanks for confirming my shout-out worked.

It’s completely out of the mods hands NG...we are part way through an upgrade and all we can do is highlight any issues.

If anyone really wants to know about specific posts, I’d be happy to check for you and let you know.

Perhaps I'm impatient, but three months for an upgrade seems an awful long time for installation. I reckon what we've got is all we're getting now.

I didn't realise you were all going through a trauma of change mothhawk Nicos when I started asking questions so apologies.

Mostly asking out of curiosity and to get the best from this site so, at the risk of querying the new format, I am wondering why the members location does not show when they post? I would have thought that to be quite useful information when offering any gardening advice?

[Nicos]

At the moment NG if people put their location onto their profile page when they joined (and I think later...) then if you click on their name next to their replies( try clicking on mine) then their profile comes up and that info should show up.
I *think * you can access that and not just the mods????

Yes it is a loooong time.....and it's driving us mods bonkers!
Be assured we are highlighting problems as we come across them, but we're pretty sure more things can be tweaked.

[NannyGreen]

Thank you Nicos that does seem to work.

Une belle partie de la France, tu as beaucoup de chance!

Another skill learned

[Nicos]

Happy to help

It would be nice to have the locations on each post so that you can see it at a glance when giving soil related advice.

[Snoop Puss]

^A quick solution to the location issue is to include it in your signature.

Good call Snoop Puss now to persuade others to follow
