[LUF Admin]

With the switch to the new forum software, some functions have changed, for example how new posts are written and published.

Here the most important changes. If you have questions or amendments, please comment below. I'll include them in this post.

New Editor

The new software brings a new editor, the option to use BBCode was dropped as this led to wrong formatted posts.

Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here…

The toolbar looks similar to the old bar, with two additions:

• On the right side you'll find a symbol (document with magnifier) to preview your post
• The smiley symbol offers a big range of all emojis available

Quotes

Quoting is now easier and has now more options:

• Quotes of single posts via the „Quote“ button below all posts
• Quotes of multiple posts via the „+“ symbol
• Quotes of marked text

Important: You can shorten quotes, quotes of complete posts including images make it difficult to read threads...

Including Images

Using images in your posts got much more convenient and easy!

You can include images from your computer via drag & drop or copy & paste. The image is automatically uploaded in the forum and included in your post.

Double clicking an image in your post gives you the option to change size, alignment, link and description of your image.

Any questions or tipps how to create posts?

I'll publish more tutorials over the next weeks, for example about the notifications, the forum start page and how to stay up-to-date...

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask but I'll try here first. Is there a limit to total number of posts (or total upload size of all images user posted on this forum)?

The reason I ask is that I've started getting message that I need to 'manage my content' before I can post again (somethign like that). But even when I tried to go to my history of attached images I don't see any way to delete any of them (I was assuming it is required to remove some images before it's possbile to post again because of hitting some type of limit).

Any explanation would be appreciated (there is a clear explanation about total allowed size when posting a single image, and difference between free and premium membership as far as that goes, but I can't find any info about this other question about total number of images and/or total allowed size).
