Recent Changes to Free Republic

[John Robinson]

What do you think? Suggestions, comments, complaints?

[irishtenor]

Doesn’t work for me, the selections do not highlight.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Use your own browser bookmark...for search,/...post etc....that would remain constant....

[luvie]

I have sidebars, and only have RSS in the user post mode.
I have no idea what to DO with the RSS. :D

Didn't help

But I'm not into those flowery pretty easter egg type internet thingies anyway...lol

Actually, the rss thingie I don't really need to use

Thanks for your help though, I'm glad it is a good feature."

Aww, gee, that's not good. I don't know what else to recommend.

[ican'tbelieveit]

thanks fnord.

John this is the problem I have right now. The articles on the sidebar do not show when they have been visited.

Otherwise, very slick looking design.

OH yeah, the search button.

We are blessed; Raegan is absolutely a delight, thank you for asking! Here is a kinda-recent pic of her from Christmas-time.

I liked the way it was in 1953.

[50cal Smokepole]

Perhaps you could filter out the smarta$$ posts from what is clearly meant to be a serious... [ZOT!]

[Lorianne]

Can you find the search feature from Latest Articles or only from the home page?

[cgk]

Yes, and for me, it’s preferred so I can weed out all the stuff I don’t care about. ;)

I think it would be nice if every page (even inside of threads like this one) had the nav bar on the right side, because that way we wouldn’t have to navigate to get to articles. It would foreshorten lines a little bit and they would end up being about the width of an average book column, which (to me, anyway) would be nice - more readable.

Otherwise, and even without those changes, everything is great!

Thank you!

Good grief Charlie Brown! I’ve been around so long I’ve been through half a dozen “changes” and I’ve managed to adapt. I’m getting old now Jim. Have pity.

[Syncro]

Just go to pings, and click on “full” instead of “brief” on the right hand side. All your latest posts will be in their fullness

[La Enchiladita]

Thank you. Happy and sweet as can be is she. Congratulations on your blue eyed Angel:):)

[dixiechick2000]

Well!

There have been a lot of changes.
Can hope be far behind? ;o)

Thanks for the ping, potlatch.
I’m enjoying the challenge.

I’ve been playing with the search feature.
I finally figured out how to find a user’s posts, but don’t know if I remember how to do it again. lol

John, I like what you’ve done with the place.
One needs to rearrange the furniture every now and then.
I haven’t read the thread, but I’m sure you’ve heard some grumblings.
Just chalk those up to having a bunch of conservatives in the joint.
We don’t cotton to change very easily. ;o)

[nutmeg]

My first, knee-jerk reaction: Yikes! Put it back the was it used to be!

But it does look cleaner... I'll give it a chance. :o)

So far I really like the "Comments" at the top left. I like to see what threads are "hot" at any given moment, rather than just a bunch of posted articles.

Thanks for all you do for FR, John.

[Quix]

True. true.

Thx.

New fonts on right side column of items is too small for my aged eyes-—oh wel, I can live without reading them-—you pay the bill, you can do as you wish

[Syncro]

LOL, no it IS good.

I have lived this long with out rss, and can find everything I want with out it. Plus I kinda like opening it once in a while and looking at nerd language.

Clears my cerebreal vortex cash...

McCain is the nominee. Coulter’s endorsing Hillary. Free Republic becomes uncomfortable to use.

The world is ending.
