like the save draft option, but not tried it yet
 
just tried to save my previous post as a draft but pressed the post reply button. if you save as draft and go away. The message is there when you return - but I can't determine if only I can see it - my next message I'll save as draft, them post another message - can others see the draft message?
 
this is a drafto_O

Ah - if you save as draft, you can't add a new message to the thread until you delete it or post it - probably a good thing

I'll save another draft which will say 'this is another draft' - do others see it?

Admittedly I only have one person on my ignore list, I but have not received any emails for anything that they have posted.?

I have what some might think a rather extensive list (maybe 10 or so names) what with not being as tolerant or altruistic as some. If you were called out for cross posting on 2 or more forums and didn't bother to acknowledge it I figure you'll do it again so you'll likely make the list. I don't have time to waste on your future problems that will likely be posted elsewhere as well. If you were sarcastic or rude towards me, why should I help you next time? You're on the list. OK, so that explains something about me and my list. Never have I received an email from anyone I've black listed until the new forum launched. Now I get email from posts made by you know who. I agree that if you just have to look (like rubber-neckers passing by a highway roadside wreck) it's now better than having to go to the list and remove them just to see one post.
 
I wonder what the difference might be? :o
Have you tried removing and adding one member afresh? perhaps not all the settings transferred correctly.? Strange :o

I also like the prompt 'Messages have been posted since you loaded this page. View them? ' that appears.
The number of times I have tested something to go on to post and found someone beat me to it, are too many to count. :)

@Uncle Gizmo Maybe we need a proper code add-on. Perhaps we could test one.

the sql tags are OK Jon, but they don't color code at all, do they?
SQL: 
select * from table where field = criteria
regardless though, VBA tags color code very well and it makes it very easy to follow someone else's work.
 
What is the benefit of colour coding? Edit: Oops, just read your last bit.
 
Woah! Did you see that poll just magically appear in the right sidebar?
 
I did indeed. I want to ideally rotate or randomise the polls, but there isn't that feature. I am a great believer in asking people what they think and want, and then providing it!
 
I'd like to inject a bit of off-topic stuff here guys. This is probably the hottest thread on this forum! In 2 short days, we've managed to rack up 18 full pages of talk!
 
The preferences on Xenforo will be a different set to vBulletin. I advise to change the defaults that Xenforo sets if you want anything different.
 
Tony,
I do not think that is the case.? All mine are set, in fact I have not even touched them.
 
Ads all need tweaking and sorting. Bear with me, might take a few days.
 
TBH I never played around much with the options in the old software. I set a signature. a strapline as Colin calls it and then an avatar and that was as much as I can remember. Then I created my ignore list, just before we moved.
I can confirm however that all the notification checkboxes in this software for me are checked, but I do not get any emails if an ignored member posts.

Edit:

I would point out that in Privacy, the default to view your profile page is All Visitors, as it is for a couple of others.?
I've just changed all mine to Members Only
