Will it be the same set up as it is on here and the same mods.




Yes Marge, the Mods will be the same.
They say the forum will look similar to the pages of the wall pages. I'm not sure.
There's a link somewhere to a test Forum and it seems to have bigger text boxes and the colours are nicer. Big Grin
They're working on the glitches at the moment.
Tayto.
in answer to the OP this is what the Gaga forums will look like and the format that will be used instead of the current one when they move us over.. http://support.livecloud.com/

The links for this place will automatically redirect to the new home and new format. .Wink

the main difference is that this and the old C4 used forums powered by Eve Communities. . the move over means they will be using forums powered by Groupee instead..

Spongebob.

I think this is what they mean about the quote thingy.
If you look at my last post to Katyee there are loads of quotes in it and sometimes they spread the page if too many are used.
By highlighting one of your sentences and clicking reply it just copied that line and not the whole post.
I didn't have to copy and paste.

I hope that makes sense.


yes it did.........thankyou tayto xx..... Thumbs Up

How do you reply with quote though Olly?
squiggle
Avalon they don't have the ignore over there... not yet anyway.. I don't use it but I know a lot do Ninja

**goes to pop the idea in feedback and suggestions thread over there**

squigs to reply with a quote you can do one of two things

1) Highlight the text (left click and hold the button down as you move mouse over the words ) on the post you want to quote , including the posters name if you want to. .then just open the reply box and the text will be there as a 'Reference',,,. if you don't include the name when Highlighting you will have to type it in yourself if you haven't highlighted it in the original post.. or leave it with no name... it won't be as clear looking as the quotes are in here tho...

2) Do the above first, or highlight the text then right click and select copy. . Open a reply box and either paste what your copied into the box.. and type [quote ] at the beginning and [/quote ] at the end (both without any spaces)

then you type your response underneath either option..

apologies if you know how to Highlight .. am never sure exactly who knows how to do what so try to simplify if I can.... Red Face

Well I AM getting a bit worried han Frowner Because I can see them swooshing us towards this wonderful new format and throwing the baby out with the bathwater along the way. OK Live Cloud is all different and exciting but I don't get along with Facebook and its looking a lot like Facebook to me.


Nod or Twitter, l posted a reply to a blog, and today got 4 e mails telling me about all the other posts.

Are we going to be given a forum format the same or is it going to be this horrible highlighting and post a reply thing. I just tried to do that and after I highlighted the text in the post I was replying to it would not then post!


I hope it is going to be simple to use. I doubt I will use the blogs and walls and those things. One reason why I don't use FB anymore is because it is way too complicated Red Face I just want a forum to post with you guys, that's all. Disappointed

Thanks for helping Olly. I clicked on your link and practiced highlighting etc but I just hope I get used to it because it feels a bit clunky Frowner

I suppose this is the stage where we have to suggest things we want. Can we all scratch our heads and think of things that will make it feel user friendly for ALL of the FM's on here?

I think they're just a bit overwhelmed with all the new blogs/posts/whatever but the more I read the more welcoming they seem to be Smiler Think they just felt like a bus full of foreigners broke down at their school Laugh
