developer (ChrisB) started the topic FYI, we're moving the forum to new hosting, but nothing should change in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 6 years, 10 months ago
We’re moving the forum to a new hosting company. We’re doing this to get a higher level of customer support for our ‘backend’ wordpress needs.
In a perfect world, this change will be ‘invisible’ to forum users; everything should look and work exactly the same.
But… It’s more likely we’ll hit a couple of glitches, which we’ll work quickly to…[Read more]

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Spam problem (1/11) in the forum Forum Usability Notes and Requests 6 years, 11 months ago
As a quick followup, I want to say thanks to people for using the new REPORT button, this has helped us quickly eliminate some spam posts.
And for background info, it’s going to be tough (impossible?) to completely prevent spam. The spammers who’re making it in now (hi guys) are apparently willing to put in the effort to sign up manually, as I…[Read more]

Hi Josh, I wish I knew the correct answer, but I don’t. I’d say this is one to place a call to the support line, Toll Free: (877) 616-9911.

Like all of you, I’ve been struggling to accept the news and kept hoping it would turn out to be a miscommunication. I also had many forum conversations with Mark and found him to be a good friend, and very smart and patient with his advice. His passing leaves a big gap in the forum, and he’ll be missed.

Hi All, just a quick note that we are once again dealing with spammers making their way into the forum.
I’m working right now to try and eliminate it. I know that a spammer sent a bunch of PMs – apologies for that.

You’ll notice a new gray row at the bottom of each reply, with a ‘Report’ button at the far right. Please use this button to notify Moderators of any spam posts.
I think we may move the Report button up to the top row with the other links, I’ll see how that looks. Currently, it’s pretty subtle, i.e. hard to notice. Also, clicking it still…[Read more]

I’ll see if I can open up the ‘Spam’ button to additional users (like you) to help us detect and eliminate spam. There is a Spam button that’s currently just available to Moderators, but I think it makes sense to provide it to additional users.

developer (ChrisB) replied to the topic Blade alignment in the clamp: sweet spot & constant bevel angle/width in the forum Advanced Techniques and Sharpening Strategies 6 years, 11 months ago
@MarcH @graphite I’ve fixed the issue where the earlier replies were stuck at the bottom, as if they were always the newest. The explanation is kind of technical, and I’m not yet sure exactly how it happened. In short, each reply to a topic receives an ID, as well as an optional reference to another reply. If a reply doesn’t refer to a previous…[Read more]
