I am getting notification for thread updates that I never used to get, nor requested. (1/2 A & 1/8 A; Hitec/MultiPlex), but not the threads I used to get (Hanger-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread; Yellow Aircraft AT-6). Perhaps there have been no updates to those though.

Still wondering why no members locations shown beside their name/avatar, real pain when you wasted your time giving details about something and then discover where they are it dosnt apply or they cant get it?

Now that the log in issue and the inbox full of RCU subscriptions has been resolved I think the change will be for the better.

I like the way the pictures load, but they are still a bit too slow to enlarge the first time you click on them.

I also like the way the videos can be viewed full screen with out having to go to U-tube.

I still think the fonts could be bigger. I know, I know, I can do that thru my Browser, but why should I have to, then read every thing elsewhere on the web as if they are shouting at me?????? LOL

Maybe just use the Bold as default????
Please.................Pretty Please.............

I don't necessarily mind that feature, it helps me remember if I've answered a question or asked the OP a question and they answer, BUT, I would like to see a big "unsuscribe" button at the top of the forum I get subscribed to so I can smash that sucker when I'm done with answering questions or getting replies in that thread.

What happens when we want to highlight something to enhance a certain point if it is already in bold mode?

Sorry Terry, but I've got to vote to keep the text as is. If I ever need to enlarge it, all I have to do is hold the Ctrl key and roll the mouse wheel. Try it! You might like it!

Hello. I'm getting notifications in my e-mail about my subscribed threads, but NONE of them (except this one) are checked to receive notifications! Stop the e-mails!

[QUOTE=Airplanes400;11592945]Here's another bug ...

Suddenly, (with this new software) everyone seems to be listed as a BASIC MEMBER.

I'll make sure this gets attended to, I do recall there being (on the old system) a separate link specifically for AOL users.

Hi,
In the single content advanced search dialog if I choose "forums" for the sort by function when I hit search I get an error that says "......'forum' attribute not found.

It would be great to get this working as its a work around for no longer having the "my forums" ability to see new posts just from the forum you are interested in.

You can say in the advanced search subscribed forums and posts since last visit and if the sort worked I think you get the same result as the old forum.

- Joe.

Small improvement in "new threads":

You are now able to quickly "View New Threads" for specific categories - such as RC JETS by clicking a drop-down option in the "New Posts" option in the top-left area of the forum navigation menu, just under the big "What's New" tab. In simpler words - just above your avatar icon on top, you will see "New Posts" with a dropdown arrow icon, this drop-down can help you view activity in an area that's of more interest.

kewl, on that and getting the location info displayed again.

now, if yall can just get the who is looking at this forum list to the top of each forum, instead of the bottom of the page, things will be getting closer to what we want.

Have you already edited your USER OPTION / SETTING for the subscribed threads?
Please review your subscription options via this URL: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/prof...do=editoptions to see if anything has changed, and see if you are still subscribed and has modified it to the setting you want.

Remember you'll only get one notification from a forum saying you have new posts until you check it so that it doesn't fill your inbox with the notifications for same forums every single time someone makes a comment.

Please keep us updated. Thank you.

Are you still having this problem? My Quick Reply seems to be working fine and does not give me any notifications or pop ups.

Please keep us dated! Thank you.

Remember that you won't get an e-mail for EVERY posts that are being made from one forum until the site detects that you have check them. Once they notify you once, it should stop emailing you about the same forum...so that it doesn't flood your inbox. Therefore, unless all 300 forums that you are subscribed to has new posts, you shouldn't be getting 300 per day.

That being said, are you not receiving ANY notifications from the forums that you are subscribed to that have new posts? You shouldn't be receiving 2-3 from the same forum but at least one to notify you that there are new posts being made. Is this the problem that you are running into?

Are you still having this issue? It should lead directly to a page where you can message him once you click on "Send Private Message" that's located on the left side of their profile page.

It works fine with mine, please double check to make sure if this problem is still occurring for you and keep me updated! Thank you!

is there a way to directly upload VIDEO specifically? (without first uploading to you tube / external URL) ?
I've got a couple members in the kit building forum who are SURE they used to be able to upload a video directly (as you would with a photo)
the only option I've been able to find is to add a video URL, but nothing to upload directly.

I've looked around the site for a link/button/menu to do this.
We have a new auto-subscription setting where if you have ever visited or made a comment on a forum, it automatically subscribes you without you manually subscribe to them.


To change the auto-subscription setting, go to your SETTINGS, GENERAL SETTINGS, Messaging & Notification, and change Default Thread Subscription Mode to DO NOT SUBSCRIBE, and click SAVE CHANGES at the bottom.

To the ones that you are already subscribed to, you'll have to go in that forum and just unsubscribe.

Let me know if this works for you.

You guys had a good looking site before, for what insane reason did you decide to do THIS to it ?!?

Thank you, your suggestions are noted. We will keep you updated if there are going to be any changes on the appearance of the site.
