    Serial Number Registry Users (please read)

    If you have your tractor(s) in the Serial Number registry, please modify your entry when you have time to change whatever handle you used in there, to your actual handle in the forums. I'm putting in a completely new Serial Number registry in the next couple of weeks. The new version links to...

    Photo Ad Questions

    I noticed that a user had asked my old YTSupport username via profile post a question about Photo Ads. Unfortunately, I don't use that username any longer because it had problems with it's admin functions. Please direct questions to this forum or to the Contact form at the bottom of every page.

    Site Running Slow

    The site seems to be running slowly. It is possibly the search process that creates the indexes that allow you to search but I am not sure. I have notified the team and network expert that works with us. We will find a resolution.

    Breadcrumb moved

    Glad to announce that Justin, (@jkane, the fellow who is taking care of the forum user interface along with many other behind the scenes tasks), has managed to move the breadcrumb link (that little link that gets you back to the forums thread list when reading a post) up above the Similar...

    Visual Similarities

    What would be a rough visual similarity between the AC D-15 Series II and Kubota L3400 tractors. Hint, they both have 4 tires, but the answer might be in the color. @Brown David

    The new forums have a capability that can be used by those who provide feature threads. A feature thread is one where someone puts effort to provide interesting content on a daily weekly or recurring basis, always on the same topic.

    D19 Gas Specs

    I have a local farmer who emailed me with a problem. He has a D19 Gas that won't start. He's in a world of hurt because it's his only loader tractor and he's hauling his feed by wheel barrow right now and it's not a small operation for this area. He knew I had a D19 so thought I could help him...

    Filter First message Installed

    Though a week late, the filter by First message is now a setting in preferences. Those of you who want this option know why you want it and so it is available. It locks your view of the Forum/Thread List to always sort by the latest thread, and not permit it to be ordered by any other sort...

    Filter settings that stay set

    The filter settings are the filter option you see to the upper right on the forum/thread list page. It was requested that this be made so that once set to First message, it would stay set to that as you move from forum to forum. This is complete but it is not implemented for use yet. We are...

    Serious Tales Problem (now fixed)

    We put in a new addon into the forums this morning to answer the complaint about old threads being revived. It appears it's doing something we never intended. As it goes through and locks each topic, it posts a notification post that the thread is being closed, which brings that up to the top...

    Closing old Off-topic threads

    More than a couple of people here were bothered old posts coming being revived. The team (jmiller specifically) has installed a method of closing posts older than 30 days if they are known to be off-topic. This is better than the old way we did it, which was to delete posts older than a certain...

    Emails versus Conversations

    I've noticed people saying things like "Send me an email", when the conversation reaches a point where forum communication isn't wanted. For example, a poster was asking about a different drawbar for his tractor, two people had one and both said to email. This was the way we handled this in...

    Request for filters change

    It has been requested by several people that they would like the thread list order (shown as "Filters" on the page) of a forum to remain at "First message". I have determined how to do that on a per-user basis, but it will have to wait until our team meets this next week because the change...

    Deepest Apologies about unread posts

    Many people have been confused because they would read a thread and upon returning to the forum thread list, it was showing as New. I had seen this a couple of times but it wasn't clear why it was happening, and I thought it was infrequent. As it turns out, it happened in any thread where...

    Bug causing threads not to show as read

    This is of course a massive deal to people reading the forums. The changes I put in to try and meet the "who is replying to who" issue that classic was known for, also called the "Threaded View" on here, is causing this. No new post that doesn't appear at the bottom of a thread, will mark the...
