Click on "My Forums" and it should bring up a listings of Subscribed threads with new posts. Scroll down below this and you should see the list of all the forums you are subscribed to.

Try this and let me know if you've found them.

How do I get the pics to show without having to click on a link? I just want the pics to be visible in the threads?

Nevermind, RCU is amazing, I keep forgetting personal opinion is only allowed here if it meets the masses regardless of if things work or not. Cya RCU......

Any software guy will tell you that he'd rather start with a clean sheet than deal with someone else's rats nest. Think of that Hawk that you were trying to paint and no matter what you did to the surface prep, the paint finish just came up crap. There ya go....

You can't see who is online now or see who is viewing a certain thread. I used to like that. Is this going to be available again? Also the ease of use of the pictures and being able to see the pictures without having to click on a link was one of the best things on RCU.

What a performance to eventually get logged in. It's too much to bother with.
I think more work is needed on this new version. Either that or return to the old one.

This is an upgrade???????
It took 6 attempts to get logged in. Every time I tried to log in it showed I was logged in. But I was unable to post replies, because it said I wasn't logged in. It finally started working on it's own.
The My Forums function does not work at all.
Where did my avatar go?

Hi Gary,

Clear your cache or reset safari if you are using a mac then it should work. I had the same problem and reset safari fixed the problem (cleared cookies and cache)

Please tell me this is not the new improved version of RCU.......it is a shocker! Layout is way too spaced and it seems a lot of the old good features are not on here. The old version is a lot more compact and easy to read. Please bring back the old version!!!!!!!

I am unable to clear my cache on this machine at work.

Come on RCU. Old version was heaps better.

I'm having big problems to log in. Has taken me more than 10 attempts. The if I get out of the page, I have to go through the whole process again. I have deleted all cookies and history to see if this helps....... but it hasn't made a difference.

I hated the new format till I read this. If everybody read this I think it would cut down on the sniveling.

PS. I still hate the new format but at least I understand why now.

It seems like rcKen has something against me. I posted yesterday and this moderator
apparently deleted my post, although I was trying to throw the towel for rcuniverse.
If this is some kind of discrimination, you must have the GUTS to tell it to me.
I'm a 64 year old hobbyist and surgeon. I've been in this hobby more time than you.
So come out and express yourself.
Most probably I'll cancel my account.

My forums still not working.

All of these are on the list to be taken care of. The issues with the images is being worked on and should be taken care of before too long. We will change the settings today that will allow you to see who is viewing a forum/thread.

Thanks Ken. Im sure you will work out all the creases soon. Paul

What features in the old system are you looking for that you say aren't here?? I understand that things are a bit different on this new software, but most of the features from the old software are here in this new software but may just be in a different place. This new software has features that the old RCU didn't have and never would.

I know you guys are a bit frustrated with this upgrade. And trust me, nobody is more frustrated than I am. I have had to deal with just about every problem that you all have as well. So I do feel your pain. But in the long run I'm sure this is going to be a good thing for RCU. Going back to the "old RCU software" would be the worst of all possible solutions. And here's why. The software system that RCU used to be on was not supported at all. In fact, the company that initially wrote the software went out of business years ago. By the time they went out of business Marc had modified the software so much that he was able to maintain the software himself. And in the long run this was actually a problem, as the software got to be so patched, customized, and modified that it was very fragile. When IB purchased RCU they found out just how fragile the software was as whenever they would try to do something in the software somewhere else in the software would "break" and things would quit working. So going back really isn't an option right now.

As far as the way things look, we can tweak that along the way. Fielding a software of this magnitude is an ongoing process and we'll work to get things optimized so they are the best that they can be.

The staff of IB is working as hard as they can to get all the bugs worked out of the system and get everything working. I understand these are frustrating for everybody. I am going to send a new message to them and let them know that the login issues need to be fixed first. Trust me, I know the problem as it took me a bit to get logged in on this laptop.

Ken

The question still remains.. What is going on with the Log In ??? Everytime I come back I have to log in.. So I click on " Log IN " and it takes me to my profile page where it says I am logged in. If I click " Log out " it goes to a page that says " Page not found " I go back and try to post on threads and it says I have to log in... I then click on " Register " and enter my User/Password there and I finally get on. I do not understand this at all.. Please help me understand this. How can it recognize me and go to MY profile page and yet I'm not logged on ??? How do it know ????


Danno

Yep login issues going on with me too. I think the pics not being able to be seen in the threads without clicking on a link is the most annoying part of this so far. Also, I used to do a google search for images then would click on the google link to to the thread on RCU. That doesn't work any more. I just get a page not found error.

yes, they are working on fixing the login issues. I just got an email from the programmer telling me that he is working on this issue now.

Ken

Paul, this function is enabled and is not working. However, instead of being at the top of the page like it was in the old system it's now down below the thread/forum listing. If you scroll down you should see who's viewing the thread or forum.

Log in issues
 

I am having horrendous issues logging in. I tried to clear my cookies and cache but it still does not work. I will be logged in on one page, then not on another. When I click on the log in buttom, it takes me to my profile page and says that I am logged in.

I also access RCU from multiple computers. Some of them I do not have access to clear the cookies or cache.

If I need to clear cookies and cache it also affects all other sites that I visit. Many of those I do not wish to clear.

Is there a better solution to this log in problem?
