The "system messages" box doesn't format properly for mobile. You have to weird scroll sideways inside of the box to see the link or the complete notification.

So what do we have to do to disable the adds, turning them off wasnt an option after all. If its add to the database, then how do I do that. Just got a daylily catalog, and so I know those are not in there.
I like garden pictures, but Ill do what ever is the drill. Where do you go to do that.

Dave, it's nice that we could add rows and columns...but I would also like to be able to eliminate columns within a row. This way we could have wider columns in a particular area where we want the pictures/data to go.

Calif_Sue said:@RickM, one option you may find handy is set those pages you want to access more often to your Custom Menu bar, you can then click on it from the top (between the bell and your profile icons).
Go to your profile and then 'change your site preferences', it's near the bottom, 'Manage your custom menubar'.


Ah yes, that's were you can add the link to the LA.... Rolling on the floor laughing

It took me a while to understand what you mean, but it looks like this:
go to your profile at the right top of the page

Question ... with the new changes are we not able to move photos from a thread to the database anymore? I just tried to move a couple of pic's for another member but nothing showed up allowing it to be done.

Add rows and columns where.
What are all those little blank boxes that say customize your home page. ALL I want, is to not have to scroll down to find my sites. Thats it.

Yes, I have less white now too. Thumbs up

Pam,

When you're on the customize page, you should see a list of sections on the left.

For row and column, think of it as laying out a veggie plot... you have multiple rows, each with 1 to 4 groups (columns) of plant or seed. Before you can plant anything, you need to decide how many groups you'll have in the row and then create it (dug a trench or bunch of holes)

Once you have your row, you drag things from the left column and drop or 'plant' them in the boxes in your new row.

I hope this helps.

may I please have a link to the inspiration...I'm not seeing it - thank you.

I noticed on @Trish post that the bottom half of her tag line is only showing half of her tag line. Not an issue - and maybe it's my monitor.

Just want to add that the functionality of the mobile site is SO much better! Now when I click on an emoji to add it to my reply, it immediately places it, instead of having to click it multiple times. The pages are formatted better for scrolling through (no more "pinching" to zoom in or out to read things). Those are just a few examples. Much more modern/user friendly for us people that are always "on the go". Thumbs up
