Hi ...

I've decided to include my newly set up album @ ehiem-uk (thanks Tim!) in my signature. However, I've noticed that the new signature will only show up in the newer posts and not applied throughout (including the posts that have already been posted prior to the change in the signature).

Is that the way it's supposed to be? IF I'm not wrong, it should be applied throughout>?

cheers

You didn't check "Attach signature (signatures can be changed in profile)" on your old posts (or did you?).

Rusty

My signature do showed up on old post. Check the profile!

Attach signature checked, as in chosen.
(but there's no differenciation between new and old posts right?) when I first started out, didn't really have a signature I think

polkadot ... the only place that I looked was in the profile.

; (

nothing.

ok .... BEFORE I had a signature, all the post remain as it is.
AFTER I put in a signature, all the old post do not have the signature. But subsequent post will have the signature and reflect whatever changes that are made

.... hmmmm ... so I suppose it's as rusty said ... didn't check attach signature in old post so = old post no signature even though now I have a signature?

hehehe ....

philtre, dont know much about this pHp thing, but now you have a wonderful signature!!

Polkadot,

See my earlier post (The New Look) if you want to use the gifs. I think there are still some left over.

hehehe ... thank you ... heok hee the discoverer was the one (thanks, btw) .... I just got too excited by all the cuties!!!! the site was really really fun. Make sure you look around!

btw polkadot, you can also check out my pics. just click on my stash of corydoras!

The only way of attaching your signature to all your old posts is to go back through them and edit them to include your signature, should keep you busy for a while.

There is actually a mod to do just that (add sigs to old posts)... Another thing on the to do list.

Hi Tim

(nice pic btw,)
I did check it out. But the only way to do it is through the profile, unless you're suggesting that I put in the text manually? As in, have it as part of the post? Heheheh .... I'll PASS!!!

Hey Rusty,

ISn't there a way to configure that? Rather than to do it manually? I don't know but the experience I had from some other forums is that it is updated instantenously?!

If you have to do that manually .......

There is now a mod installed that allows you to retroactively attach your current sig to all of your previous posts



The checkbox circled in red is what you would check to apply your sigs to your old posts. The area circled in yellow isn't so new, but I don't think a lot of people are aware of it. It allows you to set the thresholds where pagination occurs on the forum and topic views and how many posts makes a topic "hot." This allows narrowband users to make pages load faster and broadband users to see bigger pages.

yo rusty!!!!

thanks ! got it!
