It is just difficult for us at the moment because we are so used to using a different interface. But I know you will not agree with this and I'm not willing to continue going to and fro over an opinion. No, it isn't! Do you own or have stock in the new platform?

Forget everything you know about the old way of doing things. Then examine the new system. I think an honest appraisal will suggest I am not wrong. Regardless, you are welcome to your opinion but suggesting that I have an ulterior motive for my opinion is needlessly insulting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_sobe Posted October 21, 2018 #203 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I am getting used to it now. A few more weeks and I will probably think its fine. My bank changed their online bank account/bill pay a few years ago. I hated it but eventually learned to like it. I also felt the same way when NCL changed their website several years ago. I am still not crazy about that one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when Cruise Critic updated/changed their system some years ago and everyone hated the changes and now they want it back to that. In a short time everyone will be fine with this one, just like they were eventually fine the last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachosupreme Posted October 21, 2018 #206 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I hate that when you click on a particular ship name, it brings all kinds of results. Before if I clicked on the getaway, it only gave me posts about the getaway. The search feature also seems out of whack, trying to find people’s reviews has been a nightmare. I’m really hoping this is all just transition bumps and it will work smoothly again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithop Posted October 21, 2018 #207 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Sucks. Should have archived some of the old messages, nobody bother to search and read them, it would be faster to upgrade without all the old threads going back years. Tapatalk isnt working for me, error log in. Web view is slow as molasses on this FLL free wifi. Maybe I’ll try again in a month when it sttles down and if Tapatalk works, but for me, i’m already gone, cue the Eagles! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PhillyTravelBug Posted October 21, 2018 #208 Share Posted October 21, 2018 The color scheme and layout doesn’t bother me, but what is going on when you click on a specific ship? I barely get any topics for that specific ship...it’s almost like a keyword search. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see any checkmarks or selections in what you posted. But it doesn't matter that much. I suspect the settings you want are below what you posted. Below the Save button is another part of the form that allows you to enable an email notification for various things. The setting I think you probably want to enable is New content for things I follow. Don't forget to click the Save button below these settings.

Yes. In the post/reply editor you should see a paperclip on the left of a shaded area at the bottom. Click choose files to pop your Windows File Explorer. Pick the picture you want. It will upload and a thumbnail will appear in the shaded area. Position the edit cursor where you want the picture inserted then click the + on the bottom left of the thumbnail to insert the picture into the post. If you got the wrong picture, you can click the garbage can button on the bottom right of the thumbnail.

OceansMotion Posted October 21, 2018 #216 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I changed my settings to one email per day with new posts/forums that I follow. So far, zero email notifications not even weekly. And yes I hit the save changes button. I think an app is the way to go for us that don’t sit in front of a computer all day and night. I could sit on my couch and read or post easily on either IPhone or iPad. I really don’t like the bookmarking of every forum to find it faster.

I too am baffled by this. Hope, as you say, that they eventually sort it out. Another thing is, can anyone help as to how you go to the "last unread" on a roll call? There doesn't seem to be any buttons etc. Also, how do you preview your posts? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
