This bug (undocumented feature?) may (or may not) be related to the new DP, since I have also switched to using a much newer iPad (and related IOS), but I am now experiencing the (rather random) capitalization of the first letter of words when composing replies.

This is a test from my newer iPad with new iOS.

i am not seeing it. Does anyone else on iOS get the capitalization issue ttwtt is reporting?
 
I'm getting basement threads in my search results. Not sure if that's an intended change or a bug.

Unfortunatly, we are unable to remove that place from results. For now, if you have access, you will see search results.

Try editing (inserting) a new word between two others. It seems to make it happen more often (yet still randomly).

This is still another iPad test.

I still cannot replicate it, which does not mean a whole lot.

edit: the W in whole did try to capitalize, so I did kinda replicate it.

Thank You. My girlfriend, who is very tech savvy, suspects that it is the iOS trying to “help” me.
 
Here's an issue with Shades of Blue, at least ón the mobile browser version of the site.

When composing a reply, if new comments are added, you get a little popdown letting you know, with an option to view them. On shades of blue, the "view them" text is invisible, so you have to blindly tap around the whole box looking for the button. The "view them" text isn't always in the same place, otherwise it wouldn't bother me very much.

Is anyone else getting Email notifications of threads that you haven't subscribed to?
 
Did you guys tweak the backgrounds or have I just gone crazy? Either I'm getting more used to the styles or somebody made some very subtle, but pretty effective, adjustments to their shades of whatever color!

That's probably an iPad thing. I have the same issue on my phone because, sometimes, I end up with a period instead of a comma. I figure that the other times it capitalizes something are my fault too because my typing skills are bad enough but when it's just thumbs....

There was a change that made the quote boxes in sigs stand out more. Thanks Schweddy!

Right now I'd have never known you were online unless you said something.

Yesterday I could paste images into posts. Today I can't. BUT it seems some users still can? Any idea what is going on?

We have made no changes to the copy/paste image system since launch. What does it do when you attempt?

Nothing.

I just attempted to paste a cartoon above, no response to the CTRL+V

I can paste into word with no issue, so it's getting on the clipboard.

I also note that all text controls are greyed out, hmm let me try and bold this.. Okay, I seem to be in a text mode.

BINGO, you're a genius, it apparently can be toggled to text only.

When you say thread do you maybe mean site? I got "poached" years ago from DP by another site (pretty good one too) then everyone started fighting and got kicked including the Mod. that did the poaching.LOL. It was just when you used subscribed that I wondered.

Ok, so this is an alert to a new thread in a forum, in this case the basement. Why is that thread not showing up in my watched threads list? Sorry about being so confused about this.

It didn't start there, it was in the Feedback forum when it started. It was moved to the Basement.

You can watch a forum as a whole but you have to watch threads individually.
