Latest Update May 2020

Dear ACC’ers,

today has seen a couple of updates to the forum:

  1. Core files updated to the latest version for stability and tweaks.
  2. DM coloured bubbles. To better distinguish between normal threads and DMs your private messages are now shown in coloured speech bubbles!
  3. Let’s post like it’s 1999 - you can now add signatures to the end of every post. Plain text or flashy gifs (hosted elsewhere!) can now be your signature! Go to your User page > Preferences > Profile and scroll down.

ACC keeps getting better - points, thoughts?

Cheers,

DJ

Ahhh, just like the old days when my signature block included my “Year 2 Dolphin Award swimming certificate”.

So how do we embed a Gif so that it automatically plays?

That one I uploaded (because I mashed the two together myself) instead of using a link.

Could that be it?

Thank god they don’t appear on mobile.

Oh, you also have to enable them I think?

Yes, you can enable and disable them in your preferences, and they also appear on mobile, That’s why you haven’t seen any pEp.

The downside I suppose is that Mods have to have them enabled so we can see them to moderate them.

Damn.

Let em check the settings/docs…

Yep. Same place you enter your sig you get the choice to enable or not.

The joys.

Edit: and now they’re gone again.

There we go - a quick compromise - When you turn on signatures to view they’re still not visible on mobile. No option to turn on on mobile which I think works nicely on the smaller screen!

How long until someone finishes a post with

Or slightly amend it… for comedy purposes

Surely that type would also be the “1234 Sqn RAF Air Cadets” type…
