    new members is that they are being referred to as Ex Member in some places:
    Noticed that. I would assume that some part of YaBB hasnt caught up or there is a deliberate lag in recognizing status.

    I have just set up email RSS via Outlook and I notice that some posts are sent with members email addresses, but mostly as

    "Author: 25 most Recent Topics - coffeesnobs.com.au"

      odd thing that I have noticed a couple of times since the upgrade for posts from new members is that they are being referred to as
      Ex Member
      Strange. Ill see what I can find.

      Ill turn the author tag back on too, if people have public viewable email addresses in the forum it will showtheir email address in the RSS too.
      Their choice to have public viewable emails. It also means that any member of the public can click on their email button under their post to send them an email.

      ...I can only assume
      a. They dont mind.
      b. They love spam.

      :-?

          Andy
          How can I embed a google docks slide presentation to a post ??

          This should come up similar to a media player but as a slide presentation player ??

          <iframe src=http://docs.google.com/EmbedSlideshow?docid=dc5qt26s_0c97xkwgg frameborder=0 width=410 height=342></iframe>

            You dont is the short answer!

            If you could (and you cant) it would be...

            Code:
            [media]http://docs.google.com/EmbedSlideshow?docid=dc5qt26s_0c97xkwgg[/media]
            The media tags only work on a few media types (for security reasons mostly)

            The list might grow over time but at the moment we get what we have.

            Oh, if you could embed <iframe tags then every spammer site in the world would embeded here in posts!

            :

            Your options are:

            1. make it a PPT powerpoint file that people could download
            2. Turn it into a PDF which more people can read
            3. just post the link to google.

            I would go for #2.

              [media] Tried that and did not work as you said not available

              Just have to rely on links for now

              I think I have that option 2 PDF ? I am sure I have seen it
              Might just do that

              Thanks

                Andy. Excuse me if this is the wrong place to post this.
                I have tried to update my profile to change my email address. But when I go to User CP, then Profile, then Edit Profile I am required to enter my password. This password is unchanged [by me, anyway] since I joined CS. When I enter the password, click on Confirm Password I get the response that the password is incorrect.
                Can you assist please.
                Another matter is that I thought perhaps I could return to the default position by logging out then log in again. But I find I can not log out. Clicking on the log out button has no effect. This may be worrisome because I am thus always logged in and I am always on line.

                Thanks

                  No real idea!

                  ...but I think its at your end as no one else appears to have that problem. Try and clear the cookies in your browser first (that will force a logout) and then log back in.

                  Just remember that the password and login are case sensitive now.

                    Seems to be a Safari thing. I find that I have to reset Safari to log out...

                      All OK now. Yes, cookies the problem. Feel quite embarrassed now for such a minor thing.

                      Thanks

                        Can someone speak english in this thread, I have no idea what anyone is talking about.  I think it all means I can read the forum?

                          Nothing to see here, move along fishinglizard, move along.

                          ;-)

                          We did an upgrade and (as computers do) we had a little grief along the way. Mostly its fixed now with a few quirks on the backburner.
