New forum, new features.

Hello folks :wave:

Just a few heads up on a few things.

Notifications:
You may have noticed the new notification bell, and also noticed that those of you that have email notifications, haven't been receiving them, well there's a solution to correcting that, along with adjusting what notifications ring your bell.

Go into your profile, select Board Preferences, select Edit Notification Options, then tick or un-tick away to your hearts content.

As a side note to this, the Moderation Team can now receive notifications about reported PM's and posts, which is a very handy addition :thumbup:

While I'm here, we would appreciate members making posts about any other forum problems you may notice that us moderators may not see, and hence why some of you may have noticed a random "normal" member "Username" making random test posts.

Thank you for your patience.

Mick there is a small point, I notice everyone's avatar is the same as usual EXCEPT mine,
I have checked my profile and it shows it selected,
Any reason why the Forum HATES pictures of Panzer 4s.

Some of us "of a certain age" might find it tricky to click exactly on the little box to the right of the name of the last member who submitted to a thread. Might this box be made a bit bigger? Or have I missed something obvious for years?

(By the way, I see "Topic Tools" now---nice idea!)

Are you using your phone or pc/laptop to access the site?

And do you mean latest posts?

Also, do you mean on the Home or Index page?
