Works with Mac/Firefox.
Also: Here's a cleaner way to copy/paste images from the internet:
Right-click and choose "Copy Image URL". Then, click the "Insert/edit image" icon on the toolbar, and paste the image URL.
And one more: I can drag and drop an image from one window to the posting window without problem. Have you tried that?
Lori has reported the issue ti the developers with not being able to post pictures in Chrome or Safari. It works for IE & Firefox.

Yay!
I'm really happy with this new forum, the only thing that was annoying me was the fact I could get two threads on my phone screen at once.... That's now up to four. It's so much easier to use on my phone.

Haven't we always been able to? Or did that disappear for a while and I've not noticed?
Is this page called the Front page, it's the one I come to but I can't see any changes.

It did disappear - was originally not in 2.0. We put it back.

In MY mind, the front page is the Home page (click Home up at the top). Is that what you are calling the front page, too?
Hi Lori, I have this page in Favourites so I come straight here
Lori posted:
Ah! I should have said the Big Brother Forum, the second link
I was hoping so!
The only thing that changed on that page (I think) is that I was able to tighten things up a bit so that more topics show on the page than earlier.

There's certainly lots of topics lol, the changes haven't stopped people from chatting

I think most of us call the main BB page the front page
One improvement is, there's no longer a message below a post saying you edited it. So I can correct my frequent typos... without everyone knowing!

You could access them but unless you had bookmarked them, it was more complicated than it was under 1.0 or until it was revised in the last day on 2.0.

Me too Rosie I have liked the changes from the word go.....although I do miss not having an immediate notification that I might have a PM.....but I am gradually getting used to remembering to check

Me either Rosie And I can't send any cos I'm not VIP ....it's just at this time of year there are a few addresses etc. Flying around

As far as I am aware there are TWO places that link to the Forums. In the dark menu bar at the top and at the top/bottom bar of each page.
Initially (I remember now) after version 2 was launched they both linked to a single list of forum titles which you scrolled down to get to the forum you wanted. Now the one in the dark bar at the top has sub-mebues to get to other forum choices. as we had in version 1

It was the dark bar I was using EFFT ...the one with the * ladder * in the top left .....is that the one you mean ? TBH I forgot about the other one ....I've been doing everything via the little ladder

I've not visited other sections for some time
Hi Baz, my post there related to how it appears on a pc. The 'ladder' in top left is how you access things using a tablet or phone. The sub-menus referred to will have no relevance to phone and tablet users.
Helloooooo peeps out there is there any chance of when you look at a PM it automatically goes to the last page rather than the first page please
Sprout, I did report the PM last page to Lori. If there's a blue bell by the title of a PM that means there's an unread reply and clicking on the bell does take you to that reply. However at present, if there's no blue bell, you have to navigate to the last page, I'm hoping that will get changed.
FWIW I think the new forum is fine except (there's always an except!), when I press First Unread Post why doesn't it take me to the first unread post? Sometimes it does, but most times it takes me to way back up the page.
I might just call in the Trading Standards people!

I've found the same as you and reported that to Lori.

We've all just experienced difficulty posting/logging on. Has someone been tinkering?
