    Happy to post up any info from headers for sure - but have to be latter heading out to pregame for the cubs game tonight ;) Its Grateful Dead night at Wrigley... heheeh

    What exactly would you want this rss link to show you? The lastest posts in each sub section? Not going to be very useful since those will change all the time and then be gone from the rss feed.

    You should use the rss feeds for the specific sub categories - firewall, nat, etc.

    Yeah prob - I took it from jimp answer that prob just some tweaking that needs to be done because that sections permissions are different.

    I would think being able to edit your reply should be allowed yes.

    Probably yes, because the last part after the "." is more than 3 character long. I don't have that problem with a lot of sites, but some big company like one of my old cell phone member portal didn't like the .info

    So when I tried to register to the forum and I got an invalid email address I didn't look further and used my .com alias instead.

    Could be a time zone issue, but it's hard to say. I don't think anything changed on this server, though we were verifying NTP on a bunch of servers yesterday, so it's possible the system clock was off on this box. All of the timestamps appeared correct to me, though.

    The default for everyone, logged in or not, is to put topics in order newest to oldest. I opened up a different browser and hit the forum and I spot checked a few categories but did not see any that were sorted oldest to newest.

    If you are seeing "old" topics they are likely stickies and not recent posts. Look for the pushpin icon next to the topic title. If you can link to a specific example of a category showing old non-sticky posts first when logged out, I can look into seeing what is different about that one.

    Hit the 3 small dots at the bottom right of your post (just next to reply and quote) and "edit" your post. Or/And add the tag "solved" to it.

    There are still a few times when the new setup is straining to keep up. We still have some tuning ideas we haven't implemented yet though. Any errors like that should be temporary.

    @ar15usr We had lawyers take a look at our public facing services. If things could have been done differently, we would have done it.

    Locking this thread now, everything necessary was said.

    So if someone fiddles around with the colors it’s probably not getting any better…

    As I understand the Skins/Themes, one would only fiddle around in the default skin for that. Others would have to be manually added. But as those probably use some CSS classing (I hope!) that should be possible.

    I'd also like something like a dark-default theme but perhaps not so dark as slate. But something along the lines of Solarized/Solarized Dark. So that one has the option to have a light and a dark version without the light one being "white only".

    Something like this palette: http://ethanschoonover.com/solarized

    @ramosel said in Help! Can't find old personal /private messages after forum upgrade:

    I had a lot of really good information in my PMs from the devs and from package writers… gone! with no warning.

    And where did you ever get the impression that data on some public forum is safe, secure? How much are you paying for this forum access that you believe that netgate/pfsense and you formed some sort of contract that your PM would be there day to day?

    Lets get real here! ;)

    I also have multiple appliances, gold member and tester - and very active on the forums for 10 some years. I can tell you for sure I never had impression that my PMs were going to be there tmrw.

    I don't pay google for gmail either - so i have no impression that gmail is going to be there tmrw either.

    I can understand your visual problems. Then I would suggest you nicely bring up that the current themes are not very user friendly for people with visual problems - I am quite sure you will get not only support from the netgate/pfsense side in working on a theme that is easier to read, but also suggestions from other users with the same sort of issues and what they use on their end to help. There many tools to rework a websites visual themes for different reasons regardless of what the site owners layout is.

    Calling staff Bozo's is not going to get you any help that is for sure.
