boleyd Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 When I look at my site options under my name (upper right) the Settings item had a grey bar over it and is not available. I wanted to see if I could change the spacing and font size to get more messages per page, more like the old system. I seems that everyone rushing to follow the Microsoft Windows "new art". I preferred the way the old forum displayed info. It was visually more concise with less scrolling and mouse activity required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Museumkeeper Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Hi boleyd If you look again, you will see that there are two main headings, Content and Settings and under each are sub headings, Profile and My attachments under Content and Manage followed content, Account settings and Ignored users. The section that I think you want is Settings/Account Settings. This section will allow you to adjust your signature, etc. Kind regards Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penzoil3 Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 No, the main settings is grayed out, and doesn't work He's right. I'd like to adjust some things too, but can't. Acount settings is not what we want. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petfy Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Content and Settings are only headings (Note that they are bold font). Its the items underneath that can be accessed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Kae Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 JFS is completely correct , the settings is just a header, same as the content in the top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianT Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Again.. Account settings is not what we're looking for, it's the ability to change how the forum is displayed Font's/size etc, not signatures and profiles. It may well be that this feature hasn't been or won't be enabled yet as the upgrade is ongoing. I do agree with the OP though I prefered the old display, and before the "oh you just don't like chage" brigade jump on the bandwagon I have no probem with change when it works and therefore makes things easier to achieve....even with a change to workflow.

Jay Kae Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 messages per page now set to 40 as per old forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boleyd Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 Change for the sake of change - I would like an option to reduce the font size and the amount of space wasted between items. The older system was more consolidated and use screen space well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
