NYCat Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 I hate the feature that forces me to click to expand in order to see an entire post. Wasted effort. So much easier to just scroll if needed for a long post. It is really, really annoying if I am going back and looking for a post I want to check again and if there are images I can't see them properly unless I expand each one. Am I missing some setting that would let me eliminate all need to expand? Paulette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could at least have left it active for a short time after posting to make any corrections. Quite a few forums I use give that option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of apps have those three dots, so it was easy for me to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I actually don't mind the expand feature as it keeps the chain of posts more compact and manageable. I do miss the Edit button (or whatever it was), but I figured out the three dots fairly quickly. Curiously, it seems that not all posted images need to be expanded. Or perhaps I'm missing something too... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert M Estall Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Yeh, there were times when a few of the images were linked and there was hardly any room for dialogue. I suppose the three dots takes up a little less space as well, but I don't really see much advantage. It wasn't broke so why fix? What did unsettle was the system demanded I log in with ID and password. I did that meticulously and it said I was wrong. Checked it and was 100% sure I had it right. It then blocked me and reported via email that someone in Pebmarsh Essex had been trying to access my account. It all went away the next day. I don't know anyone in Pebmarsh (photographers or otherwise) but it's not that far away. Strange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange! this happened on the change day for me, but the lockout was only temporary. by the time i actually read the email, i was already back in.

Can't remember a thing about them. However, it was the late 60's, so I have a good excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
