This is an example how the Word Cloud is supposed to appear-

http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com/wordcloud.php

I added this on to the board and it is dynamic, taking key words and phrases from each post and generating a "cloud" with the size of the words being how often they are used. Hover over any word and see how many times it is used.

The tags in the new version- if used generate this type of page.

http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com/tags.php

The post author can add 5 tags and everyone else can add 2. If this gets to be in the way, we can take it away until it is dynamic. Maybe I will remove the Tags, and we can simply use the Word Cloud.

I prefer dynamic as it more accurately portrays what the Cloud should contain. I have used this on other forums and it is helpful. It is being worked on and at the bottom of the forum is the word "Beta" meaning this version is kinda cutting edge and seeing improvements as the developers progress.

So Far, I like the Photo Albums, and except the first night I did the upgrade, losing the styles, no real hiccups. Look for Comments on photos inside photo albums later this week.

Other Enhancements are

Added Ways to view smilies. Click [More] and you will get a box with smilies. Instead of loading them all, there is a drop down at the top.

Added Notification Gif for Private Messanging

Welcome Message for Unregistered/Not logged in

Smilies to remind some of us to diet......

:boomm

Oh and the Post Thank You I was not sure if we wanted this or not, but being Thankful is a Positive thing, last I recall.....

Like I told you yesterday I do like it... I think it needs to be explained further for some who may not understand but I do indeed like it!

It's only on the first post of a thread. Look to the right of "quote" on BOOM's first post on this thread.

I have questions about how to do backgrounds and colors on my profile page. I see those little boxes and then the shadow boxes but have no clue how to do it. Is there an example somewhere to show us how do it?

Click the box and it opens a color palette.

Site to test colors and backgrounds (http://www.pagetutor.com/colorpicker/picker2/index.html)

Color combos to help you select prefilled colors (http://www.colorcombos.com/). ( I would have preferred this to have been part of this feature)

Just wondering... Why am I unable to "hover" over a thread title & see part of the text as I was able to do before?

Boom, can we have the green bar with the links (user CP, FAQ, Member List) back at the bottom of the page? Its useful (for us lazy folks) not to have to scroll back to the top. :running:

And for my wife who pestered me to find it....

It was an addon that is not fully coded to 3.7, so I need to code one myself!

I have another upgrade to install and then will bring it back. I used it a lot myself- easier to scroll down a few inches then go all the way to the top.
