Tried my site nothing and tried on the admin panel still nothing, and online you get some "sign in to some mystery account that l cannot find".

Help!

You are checking a wrong place (global forums settings). I refer to the forums listing:

Each forum is configured separately:

Note that Categories do not have the option and you need to expand them and check normal (Sub)forums.

Ok, finally found it, (kept clicking on Categories instead of sub categories).

Thanks Luuuk  appreciate it.

Nope, last part with giving the admin, etc permissions to see them is fine, but for the life of me l cannot find the button you mentioned.

It doesn't seem to exist on my platform?

Thanks guys l will try it out asap.

How did you mess up with the permissions? If they are set up correctly you should be able to achieve what you are asking for.

Ok, tried it, but it just gave me an error message, or an Opps not allowed as a member so it didn't seem to work?

I want each member to be able post something but other members cannot see it.

I mean l want to be able to post something but no one else can read it, or a member can post several things and no one can see it except mod/admin of course.

Messed about with permissions but that doesn't do it. help!

This is a test section, l want private for anyone who uses it.

Are you referring to the default colour of text that has been posted and therefore is being viewed, or the text that is displayed in the Editor as you are typing?

No, the text that can be viewed on my forum or its color which isn't true black and as black as it gets is easier to read, but unfortunately the default color option is a grayish black.

I will add one more thing. I went to your forum linked in your profile and my rule added temporarily via browser's inspector works fine. But note that in some topics like this one not all text is changed to red:

That is because that specific part of the text has been either repasted from other source (preserving different color definition) or manually "colored" by the poster. Those can't be changed via CSS, the only "solution" is to edit the post to remove extra colors.

To prevent colors being copied you can configure "Paste as Plain text".

No that is fine, l am only taking about making the text color from "this" to "this"!
 

So l am not that fussed about a text link more about the forums overall text color.

Or if you click on the "A" here it does the same thing, default is a grayish black and l want the black one which is down the bottom.

Forgot to say, the code is for changing text in posts. If you like to change the text somewhere else then be more specific.

Yes l want the default text in posts to be darker, and can pretty much change all the other fonts using the theme editor, except the default color.

And tried to input this into CSS as a new CSS file and tried to save it, but nothing on my forum changed?

So l am asking do l need to put this in a specific area in order for the script to work?

Try this in custom.css:

div[data-role="commentContent"] {
	color: #FF0000;
}

[Replace red with your choice]

Any idea where?

Thanks Luuuk l will try it soon.

Is there any way to change this, tried everything but cannot find any way to change it.

My forum has a light gray background so l prefer a dark default color for the text instead of its present lighter color which is harder to read, thanks.

1. Maybe utilise merging of concurrent posts? (if the 'work' required is to manually merge those concurrent posts)

I do use that and sure it is fairly quick, but if l get a lot of new members not sure?

1. Maybe advise the user on how to use the functionality correctly?

Already advised and put step by step text and images in the "Newbies start here" section up top, but l think he prefers to quote one person in one post then the next ones in the same way.

He is posting a lot and could help kickstart my forum after two years of trying, so probably best l merge when l can and grin and bear it.

New members who care about my forum may become moderators eventually.

I have a new member that has repeatedly quoted on several occasions but used each post for one quote.

Or it is most likely he is unaware of the multi quote option, since the + quote bit looks like +quote, instead of + multi quote option and quote option.

I know that you want to keep it minimal, (as l do) but new members tend to miss it and give the mods and admin more work.

The Contact Us form, if you have forcing guests to fill out a CAPTCHA on ACP -> Members -> Spam Prevention -> CAPTCHA, will force the user to fill out a CAPTCHA.

In 4.7, we are implementing a new CAPTCHA system, hCAPTCHA into our arsenal. If you are finding Google's CAPTCHA systems are getting bypassed, you can try hCAPTCHA. I, personally, have been having success with it on my personal community.

If you want to simply turn the contact us form off for guests, you can do that in ACP -> System -> Contact Us -> Show Contact Us to.

Thanks for that info, Jim but before l go ahead is there a reason for this form of communication? It just seems to be a loophole for forum owners to get spammed by cretins who have found a work around.

How do l turn these clowns off?

I have marked them as spam in my email account but they just come back for more on the same method.

Help!

I suspect this is an issue local to you or your computer. I just navigated around your site for several minutes (as a Guest) and every page is loading very quickly.

Have you tried a different browser, on the same computer which is slow with Firefox?

No, and good to know it is fine on your end. It only seems to happen late at night here, so probably too many people using broadband at that time, and thanks for the confirmation.

Firefox, windows 7, but l have tried another Envito site with no probs, but my site is running really slow?

Created my account, (as far as l can tell since it says the secret thing is active, but not much else) and inputed it into my envision site, but it keeps saying that it cannot verify it.

The Client ID and Secret should be fine, since they are a cut and paste, but the Name?

Which name, the name of the account or the sandbox account, (which is a worry sine it says example in the url)?

But either way l have tried both, and the same error occurs.

Currently tried it in another bwoser but same error, impossible to tell if it is active, and it never works on my forum.

I would really appreciate some help from others who figured this out, thanks.

I try sending but it spins its wheels but never says, "message sent" although when l tried it on my mod, party account, no probs?

Anyone else having this issue?

Ok, figured out where to turn all sig, on, and it works on FF, and Brave, but not Chrome.

I admin can see it, but no one else, and have updated the area, tried to find a master switch, but it won't show, for anyone else, member or not, and also won't show in three browsers including FF.

All l can think of is an update nobbled it?

Also gone through the dashboard, but cannot find any reference, help.

I have also added text but that won't show either, ( usually have an amazon graphic, which is loaded onto the forum server, with a link).

I have done a search, but found nothing.

So the output is a picture of an Excel spreadsheet? For stock analysis software?

 

I think it was used to compress illustrator files, so they could be saved on a mini floppy disk, (as l said ancient).

But the software did say "Do you want to save this as a millennium file".

I know Google search is useless.

Maybe its this @tmcom:

https://filext.com/file-extension/MIL

Thanks, but it didn't work, and l have already tried the software mentioned.

You probably need to get more information about this "mil" thing. I do lots of conversion between formats and have never heard of it. I'm doubting it's a graphics file.

What tool wants the mil file? Is it a specially formatted text file (will it open in a text editor)?

Micro Illustrator Uncompressed Graphic, to my knowledge, or some ancient file format from when Illustrator was in its dinosaur stage, or l believe the late 90's.

What is 'Mil'?

Beats me, but l need it in order to have all of the tools operational for stock analysis.
