Do you happen to know if Guest posting will be allowed again in the (near) future?

[MasterFocus]

@faqbot: I don't know. Will add it to the list.

[maul.esel]

Will email notification for replys be enabled? Currently, it shows the checkbox but you can't select it.

[MasterFocus]

@maul.esel: I had already reported this issue, but forgot to mention it here. Added to the list.

Here's another problem(not sure if I can explain it correctly)
If Editing mode is enabled,if you right click somewhere in the edit box where you didn't write anything yet,the editing menus(cut,copy,paste and so on)wont appear

For example,make 3 rows with some text and try right clicking below that third row.

[just me]

What about lost "AHK" attachments? Will they be restored?

[Joefiesta]

I don't get it. I can't figure this new forum format at all.

I can't figure out how to display topics i started.

I can't figure out how to display a topic, given it's number.

I can't figure out anything.... and where is it documented?

The last forum format was very intuitive. This one is hopeless.

The following users cannot use the messaging system:

im getting that msg on pm's to users im having an on going conversation with! how come?

[jballi]

WYSIWYG post editor shows font size in pixel increments (8, 10, 12, 14, 18, 24, 36, 48) yet the underlying BBCode shows font sizes in what appears to be HTML increments (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8).

Any way to fix this so that BBCode matches the WYSIWYG editor (or vise versa)? If given a preference, I vote for pixel increments.

Thank you for your consideration.

[jballi]

When posting code within a "code" block, the forum generously converts (sarcasm level 7) multiple space characters within the block to tab character(s). For example...

gui Add,Button,xm gInstructions,%A_Space%	Instructions	%A_Space%

The characters immediately before and after "Instructions" were 4 space characters and the forum converted them to a single tab character. In code, tab characters are not the same thing as multiple space characters.

Thank you for your consideration.

[guest3456]

1. jballi, spaces to tabs is HORRIBLE. if thats true def needs to be fixed


2. and i'm reposting this bug:

also, theres some type of bug in regards to link shortening, see my post here and look at the IfExpression link
http://www.autohotke..._15#entry549064

3. another suggestion:

code boxes could have the collapse/expand links so that they dont take up huge portions of the page

4. chinese subforum:
http://www.autohotke...inese-subforum/

[QuantumApocalypse]

BBCode inside code boxes doesn't get formatted, as if the code box acts as noparse. A lot of threads have chunks of code with colouring BBCode in them, which is a pain to edit out

[Lexikos]

It seems that [size] tags in existing posts were not converted, and are now invalid. For instance, Lex' Mouse Gestures has a size=150 (probably in %) at the top and size=75 at the bottom of the first post. These were valid in phpBB v3, but now they just show at default size. Firefox's DOM inspector shows HTML like this:

<span style="font-size: px;">...</span>
