New House Rules Forum

Cool, thx

@CWO:

Since we switched to the new forum software, I haven’t been able to post any picture attachments successfully.  The system gives me the attachment option, but when I use it the system gets hung up and what gets posted is a faulty file that doesn’t open.   I’ve tried using two different browsers (I.E. and Chrome) and it failed to work in both cases.  Has anybody else run into this problem?

It’s not new software. It’s a new server. Well, I did also upgrade the version of the forums software, which could be causing these issues.

SMF is a terrible platform and I will be making it go away soon enough. I plan on working on this project starting tomorrow.

@Imperious:

I sent a PM to Djensen a looog time ago for that.

It is really no big deal. Anybody who looks into more than a few threads in GCNL and BOTB and still needs to see a badge to show that I know what I’m talking about… well… I don’t think the badge will convince them either.

It may be more important in the global game threads though since those are typically more active than the battle games.

Next year will mark the 15th Anniversary of this website so I hope to hold an Axis & Allies event in San Francisco to celebrate the occasion.

SF can be expensive to stay but so can GenCon Indy. In fact, this year, GenCon lodging might be worse than the average SF prices.

I’m going to spend time over the next year finding a venue and a date time. I’m thinking it will be in the “June-uary” time frame, which is Jan - Feb in San Francisco, when the weather is 62 - 72 degrees F during the day with little or no fog.

Stay tuned.

Yes!

@aarules:

Can we have an Angels 20 forum in the miniatures section? We need it for when it comes out in a few months.

Yes i suggest they need to contact a moderator first before the first post…just to make sure these are humans and not spamming machines, then we access their account and toggle “enable” so they can post.

In the Forum Help there are examples of the various BB codes there.  I noticed the samples for table cells shows boxes/borders around the cells, but when I try to use it it puts things in rows and columns, but not with borders (see example below).

| col1 | column 2 | #3 |
| Text 1.1 | t-1.2 | row 1 col 3 |
| a | b | c |
| x | y | z |

Is there something I can do to get the cell borders to show up on the forum-tables, or is there some sort of site configuration that does not allow this?  I was experimenting with some table-based things for the forum and I think the borders would make it much more readable.

I have not seen this “problem” but your explanation makes sense.
