Strong vote for going back to white background of the past.

Bottom left of the page and you can change it

@VaBeach_Eagle Is there a way where if people post Youtube videos, it doesn't take up the whole screen? That posted on the board is smaller and if you want to view it large you click on it and have it take you to Youtube.

@VaBeach_Eagle : I checked the admin console and it's currently set to 600. To test it out, I reduced it to 400 and tried to post a youtube video. Same thing: stretched to fill the screen.

Something is overriding the setting, perhaps the stylesheet the board is using?

They're manually re-sizable once they embed. A small square at the bottom of the video is where you can re-size it. Same with pasted images. See the square in the image below? That's where you can drag it to re-size it.

Dark Mode has been a thing for the past couple of years, so that's not new. You can change from dark mode to light mode down at the bottom of the board:

Still have the firewall issue with some articles from bleedinggreennation and si.com - they embedded but were blocked.

Also, some articles aren't embedding. For instance, go see recent Delaware Online article in 411 that was posted manually.

Just me or is the embedding process really slow? When I post a link it'll take some time to actually embed

I've had a lot going on for a few days, but I was hoping the upgrade would fix this issue. Hoping, but I was also thinking that it's a GoDaddy issue that I'll have to address, So when I can, I'll see if I can whitelist... something... to fix that. Am I correct that this issue is only in The 411? Try posting an article in TATE that would normally go into The 411 (one that won't work for you there), and if it works in TATE, it can be moved into The 411 so that it's in the right place. But that will demonstrate to me that it's forum specific problem.

I haven't noticed, but I'll try embedding something soon and see how it goes.

It has come up on other websites when I tried to post on CVON as well. Haven't tracked everything. I understand this is a work in progress.

A bleedinggreennation article successfully embedded and posted in TATE. The si.com articles have been hit or miss in 411.

It is also possible that the screen width is less than 400 and the software is right sizing it. Try using 100 and see what happens

I was looking through release notes and it may be related to the upgrade itself given what I’ve seen about the newest patch.

When I have some time I’m going to look through the style sheets and see if we can force a work around.

Still getting that Go Daddy error screen when trying to edit a post when posting articles in 411.

this one?

Just me but the bigger size is nice

I haven't read through this thread much, so I'm sorry if it's already been said a bunch, but is everyone seeing a big white image in place of an embedded tweet for like 5+ seconds before it eventually/sometimes loads?

I can't post on the mobile version with my iphone using edge or safari, i type in the reply and click submit, then it says this field is required and it does not post

Did the board crash fir anybody in the last 1/2 hour?

The site on mobile will randomly display all the tweets on the page and you can’t see the board until you back through all of the embedded tweets.

Edwiiiiiinnnnnnnn!!!!!!!

No clue but it shows on PC

I’ll check on my Mac. Mostly I’m on my phone these days.

Clearing cache is an IT cliche but it does work for things. Might be worth trying on any browser you're using to see if it helps the issues.
