After changing my email address I don't get any emails from the forum even after changing it back to what it was.

Problem with lack of Cancel button.
Once you hit reply it stays in the cache and deleting doesn't get rid of it and it pops up whenever you go back to that thread and reply to another post.

Same here. I was refering to Cance button in my earlier post, but the admin must have misinterpreted what I was saying.

Kind regards,
Tang

Here is the quick answer from the programmer

Hello Steve

I've posted under my name, and save out the post. Then went back and deleted the post by using the delete button. Works fine. I don’t see a problem.

If during setting up a post, the member then changes their mind, as long as they haven’t clicked post, they can just close the wondow or hit the back button on the browser.

If they post it, then they can imediately edit the text, or delete the entire post.

All good I think?

It's unclear that covers the condition reported which was about a deleted post's content still being in cache - which is different than it being on the screen.

Tima and ddk et al. FWIW Iagree with you all and don't like the feature. We are awaiting suggestions regarding a work around. Please be patient as each day we are finding little things that either need fixing or to be done better. IMO this is clearly one of them

To do this is not a small task a so if you are an existing member who has changed your email address we need to be notified of this as all email addresses will have to be exported manually from the data base

I assume you checked your spam folder as I had some going there. Also I hit "watch" on top of the thread if I want to receive messages, unwatch to unsubscribe

I have found that if I fully delete all the content and try to post it - that results in an error and does not post anything - the content is eliminated from cache.

Try it now. I drilled down to your personal preferences, and somehow you had extras in their. I have deactivated changing your custom title. Should be good now.

For a cone owner, you sure can think out of the box

I have been looking at the Preview Post / Or Not function.

1. You click POST REPLY
2. You add some text
3. You click PREVIEW
4. You can edit the text in the ears above, and see the preview in the area below
5. You can now click POST REPLY or the browser back button to cancel the action
6. If you POST REPLY you can then Edit, or Delete the whole post.

IMO this works for me. I haven't seen a Delete button in the Preview area in Xenforo in other website. Maybe vBulletin had it? I never used it though.

Using Safari as the browser, I am having intermittent but continuing problems accessing the site. I frequently get this message, 'server has not responded'.
Is this something that others are experiencing as well?

Works for me in Chrome on a Mac, and Safari (Sierra OS).
Have you set Chrome to remember history? And click the remember password if it comes up.
Go to Chrome and Prefs and sign in with Google then check you passwords.

Have done that.Although the problem persists even without logging in....I don't get to the landing page---just times out with the server??

I had the same problem Davey a few days ago. Everything was fine until I suddenly couldn't sign in and the server ground to a halt. It was fixed immediately by updating the caching which resulted when the site was moved from one server to another last Wednesday

Because of this we were going to do site update of the caching

I'll make sure we look into yours specifically

I have set 'Force HTTPS' on the server. I think that might be the issue. Chrome sometimes doesn't load the page if not https or mixed content. Try it now and get back.
