    Some forum maintenance and update works. Don't be shocked by (hopefully brief) outages.

      Again, let me say thank you for all of your efforts.

        Looks like this coughs update put the "reply" button at the top of the thread, unless you're replying to a specific person.

        Twitter embed gone, again.

        YouTube seems to be OK.

        And yeah, what Jolly said.

          I see a Reply link at the bottom, but the button text is now

          Blue on White rather than White on Blue

          Edit: Actually the Blue on White is on every post. Has it always been like that?

            Embedding pics doesn't work, though drag 'n' drop does.

                Weird. Now it's working.

                Looks like it was just a hotlink from one website that didn't work. Others seem to be okay.

                  I need to go through a couple of updates. May take a while, with outages and times where plugins won't work.

                    OK, updates are finished.

                    We are now on NodeBB version 15.5, the latest version.

                    I see the design has changed a little.

                    Please let me know if anything doesn't work or has become worse.

                          Thanks, guys.

                          One new feature seems to be that posts can be "bookmarked". One can check the bookmarks of any user by going on his or her "profile" page (or can only I do that?).

                          Any other noticeable changes anyone notices?

                                  @klaus I rarely use emojis, but on a cursory look, they look better.

                                  I'll leave it to the emoji users to opine.
