    It goes to the no file chosen thing. Not sure if it's an issue with the image, my WiFi, or what

    What makes a notification pop up? I post in the video game thread and then shortly after I get many notifications that someone posted in there. If I check it several hours later, there's new posts, but no notifications. Is there a time limit or something?
     
  6. Yes. So you don't get spammed with a million notifications. It resets when you visit the thread. So you know if someone replies soon after you.

    @Jason Tate I'm just curious how you like using WordPress? I personally don't do a whole lot of blogging, but I always found myself doing more when not using WordPress. I feel like the author interface actually discouraged me from wanting to write posts, while using other more cleaner UI like on Tumblr or Ghost / Medium actually motivated me to post more.
     
  8. If I'm ever writing anything more long-form, I don't write in the browser no matter what platform I'd be using ... I'd be writing in, probably, Textmate since it's set up exactly how I want for writing. I almost always write longer pieces in text files and then publish once I've gotten it to the spot I want. As for quick news posts, WordPress is really great and very customizable.

    @Jason Tate any chance of making the text formatting options (bold, italics, etc) being visible on mobile while holding your device in portrait mode, particularly during a quick reply? It's a very minor gripe (says something that it's my only complaint about using this forum lol), but I hate having to turn my iPhone to the side just to format one word, you know? Not sure if that's by design or whatnot, just asking.
     
  10. Highlight a word and you can use the pop-up to make things bold or italic.

    Hi, I'm looking for an old AP article that was a track by track interview with Phil Bozeman of Whitechapel. Would really love to read it, any chance there's a way to find it? It was June of 2012.

    @Jason Tate, I quoted someone in another thread, and started out writing a reply. I decided not to post my reply, but now I can't remove it from the reply box. It is there any time I visit that particular thread. I've tried deleting it and leaving the page, I've tried some other things...nothing has worked. Aside from logging out and logging back in, which I would assume would fix the issue, is there any way for me to discard my reply? Are there plans for a Discard or Cancel Reply button?
     
  15. Delete it, wait about 30 seconds.

    Is there a way to expand tweets/images in a quote box?

    Google Chrome doesn't like this site's security. I don't have any issue accessing through Firefox, but Chrome has the read cross through the "Https" in the web address says "This site has a weak security configuration" - Probably just a Chrome thing, but just thought I'd bring it to your attention.

    Yeah, only just started happening over the last day or two. It started after I cleared my cache.
     
  21. You must have tweaked something on your end. Nothing is wrong with our certificate or setup, I double checked. Clear the cache again and refresh.
