Proboards Recent Upgrade

[Admin]

Proboards recently upgraded their system, I believe it was some time yesterday. I am still figuring out what changes were made. I have noticed a few right off.

We now have a youtube button which you will see along the second line of buttons that show when you are posting or replying. It looks as if you use this the same way you would use the image and quote buttons. Take the URL of the video you want in your post, highlight it and then click the youtube button. The members should then see it.

Also for some unknown reason you are now asked what your gender is when you log in. You can choose to hide it though.

I had nothing to do with these changes and any others that creep up so if you don't like them, sorry! I think the youtube one is great though. - Kelly

OK, that splains that! I thought it odd I was asked to update my profile but I thought I had already put my gender assignment.

I thought I did too! Not sure why they want to know gender. Weird! - Kelly

I thought it was a trick question.

Okay very strange, it didn' t ask me that. Do you mean the first time you log in or every time?
Maybe it's asking people who left that part blank in their profile?

I can see why they're asking, though. On one of the Support Boards for the Forum there are like 300 guys and ONE brave lady offering tech help. Her name is Todge and she's awesome. Bascially the first thing I do when I get there is look her up - she likes Forums to be pretty and fun like us, so she has lots of creative ideas - not like some of the boring boys. haha
