Not only has he given us all good info, he has gone out of his way to help me make the Future Cruise Listing pretty again.

 

I have lost track how many times he has helped with this as every time CC changes the format, the FCL gets messed up.

 

From here on in, we will be using Wordpress to produce (thanks to POA1for giving me space of his Institute of Cheer website).

 

I am so appreciative to Brian for helping me one more time ❤️ 

 

And look, after some playing and testing, the FCL is as nice as it ever was:

 

I'll put this in a second post so if anyone quotes me it won't be too onerous.

It's a miracle.  Look!  The FCL is back as it should be.

 

doing a happy dance 😉 😄 

 

Thanks so much POA1 ❤️ 

 

 

HAL FUTURE CRUISERS' LIST

Updated October 19th, 2018

 

We all love to hear what cruises you are booked on.
 
I post the Bon Voyage threads 7 days before sailing so, to be included in this, you need to post your details here to allow sufficient time to be on the updated Future Cruise Listing.  It’s better to post earlier than later but if it is later please post THREE weeks in advance to make sure it doesn’t get missed.
           
We would also be interested to know if this is your first cruise, your first HAL cruise or if you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary.  Details needed are in the 2nd post of this thread. 
 
Please use REPLY and not QUOTE when posting to this thread. Using 'Quote' makes a very long thread and difficult for others to read.
 
While this list is a lot of fun, please don't mistake it for a Roll Call thread.
You can go to the Roll Call Section here on Cruise Critic and find your cruise to sign up there too.
That's where your Meet & Greet planning, tour sharing, and other activities specific to your cruise will be happening.       
 
This week’s additions and changes are in BOLD and Underlined

It takes a lot of time and work to put together all those how-to’s, so POA1 definitely deserves kudos for helping those in need.  Most of the people on the HAL board are very generous with their time and knowledge.  It really is a nice place to spend some time so a big shout-out to everyone, including you Kazu!  🏆

Happy to help! It's a lot work to keep up with the Future Cruise Listings and the Bon Voyage posts - and I know everyone appreciates the time and effort you put in on it. Those and the sail away threads are some of the really nice user-created features of the Holland America board. It would be a shame to lose something that so many of us use, just because it was too hard to maintain on the new version of the site.

 

Also, it will give KK at least one post without eyestrain each week. :classic_biggrin:

 

BTW - Someone posted to the test we were playing around with over on the Testing board. Here's a link if you want to pick up her FCL request.

Another new tip:  When you post certain links now, it doesn't just put a link in. The site adds a preview box.  To launch the link, you click on the sort of grayish arrow in the upper right corner.

Did some developer, or should I just say programmer, think that displaying a link that way and what to do with it was just going to be intuitive to us???  If POA1 hadn’t explained it to me at least I’d have had no idea. 

😲  Hate, just hate, all the gray stuff too.

Good Grief!  I go away for two weeks and look what you all have done to the forum.

I feel like my brain has been scrambled using liquid egg. :classic_huh:

 

Looks like there are lots of changes to the format of the forum and it is harder to read and follow, however, based on Kazu's thanks to POA1 for his assistance, am I going to have problems with the Groups and Charter thread?  

I have been using a word document (word 2013), W10, and then copy/paste the details to a new thread.  Will I have any problems?

Thanks!

Thanks POA1 for all the help you give on this forum.  I certainly appreciate it, and I am sure many other do too.  You are a real gentleman, and a funny one too. 

Ditto!!!!

Brian is wonderful and always is there to help.

Just wait for the HOLIDAYS COMMING he is a master of lyrics and songs too!

If your in FLL doing a cruise we always wave to the beautiful condos to him some where there😉

Thanks Brian especially to our Jacqui for helping so much

I did a bunch of tests using MS Word. Copy and paste from a native Word document brings a lot of formatting forward, but not all of it. For example, font faces really don't work at all. Bold, italic and underline do. Center, left and right work, kinda sorta. Lists (bullets, numbers, letters) work surprisingly well. 

 

My advice is to make use of the test forum (main forum list > Test) and see what works. It's mostly LBFA (learning by... um... fooling around.)

To be honest, I didn’t discover the gray, upwards facing arrow. I saw it posted in a thread. It's not even remotely intuitive. And I do this web nonsense for a living.

Thanks very much Brian 😄  I'll get them added.

I had problems with my bolding Vmax.  (underline did work if that helps)  It showed fine on preview but reverted to plain text on the forum.

 

Other than that the word worked ok.  Definitely use the test site to see how it looks and if you like it as is.

 

This may be something that gets fixed in time, but with the issues I have had with the FCL in the past, POA1's solution should work well for me in th future even with other changes.  😉

 

He is very kind with all of his helpfulness 🙂

I've always found POA1 to be helpful and full of lots of good info and advice.  And he shares it in a friendly non condescending way.  

Kazu, could you please add Daisyloo to the December 5 sailing of the Nieuw Statendam.  Thanks for all your hard work!

Glad I saw this.  I'll add you to the Future Cruise listing Daisyloo.

 

I'm assuming this is for the 14 day Premier and not the Collectors?

I am about ready to give up on this site.

 

Seems like the techies aren't doing too much to address our concerns.

Thank you, POA
Your help is greatly appreciated.
 
 
 

 

 

I wish we could have the old format back.   Is here anyone here who thinks this is an improvement in any way?
