Thank you for your input but it is almost identical to the other site except for the sidebar. If you have any suggestions that would be more helpful.

Yes you can see how many people viewed a thread by looking at the list of threads on the right said. It shows the amount of views.

Sorry, this is leading nowhere. 4th post same subject. As for your recent reply you could have pointed out that the number of views will NOT show when using a cell phone. When using the PC only rounded up Numbers such as 13K are given. WHO wants that?

I managed to change the view so it is exact now but I cannot get that to display on mobile because there isn't room.

Thanks!
I really believe that over time, you will all see how much better this new system is. It is the latest and greatest available. You will all keep finding little features that make life easier.
Thanks for the positivity.

Did anyone install as an app on the iPhone? All you do is click the little arrow in the address bar and then click Add to Homescreen. This will basically save the site as an app on your iPhone.

Can't see posted pictures. Some I can some I can't. For example Andy's K&C July releases. I see the video but all the other pictures for individual sets on the July thread are links that I have to download.

Nevermind, I see the issue. Those images are hot linked from his site and they arent working.
For example:
Looks like his site is down.

No apps. No iPhone. I think it's the luddite in me. But the new Forum has several benefits. Hope some old Forum things show up in updates.
Anyway, Thanks so much Julie. You are a champion of our Hobby.

No, that, I have not done. But I'm an outlier among today's users-I don't do very much on my phone (Samsung Galazy A10e), except communicate and stream podcasts. The screen is just too small for my taste; I prefer a laptop or desktop monitor. It's what I came up on, nearly 30 years ago now, and what I'm most used to.
Prost!

By the way, another cool thing you can do on this new system is tag other members! @Julie

I have always found tagging helpful especially if you want to point something out to another member.

Hi, Rich, here's another box with the default contrast of black text color on the dark background:
It caught my eye because of the label "Security measure". It's just a direct link to a vendor, from this thread:
It could use better contrast.
Full disclosure: I am not reporting a post or a comment in a post, neither do I think the author of that comment did anything wrong. He innocently added a comment to a thread. This post is simply to report how the forum user interface behaves, so support can take a look at it.
Prost!

Amazed at some items sold on ebay
As a Russian collector and long time collector, I am amazed at some of the items that sell on ebay. As an example (And I am not linking items here, this is more of a theoretical comment), I just saw a Napoleonic Hussar (Arsenyev copy) sold for $200. It is a copy and not even well painted. I...

Ah, OK! I just realized where I've seen this user interface and format before. The Scale Model Addict forum, https://www.scalemodeladdict.com/, is built with XenForo, too. I knew one of the other forums I visit used the same platform, but I couldn't remember which one.
Prost!
