In these early minutes of the new forum, give me a little bit of grace to squash bugs and implement things that are obviously needed. There will probably be a few things that I need to fix over the next few days, but it's my hope that we get everything set up by draft day. Thanks for your patience, I appreciate it!

Long threads no longer have page numbers, just one long scroll?

if you go into your settings there is a place to set the number of threads per pages on the forums, as well as the number of replies per thread on a page. IIRC the threads are defaulted to 30 and the replies is 20 before a new page is created for your viewing pleasure. Want shorter scrolls, lower those numbers, want longer scrolls per page, increase them.

One thing I am noticing is spacing in a post...

The spacing between paragraphs or sentences appears different when the post is being written vs when the post is actually posted.

Is that something in the settings?

Actually it looks cleaner than when the place first opened up...You may have fixed already? Only thing is paragraph spacing is really wide..Nit picking??

===================================================

Chuckles were shared recently between a certain old sportswriter and the winningest football coach in Big Ten history when one particular scouting ding against former Iowa center and current NFL draft prospect Logan Jones was read aloud over the phone.

Despite starting 50 games, earning unanimous first-team All-America honors, winning the Rimington Trophy as the nation’s best center, and anchoring the finest line in college football per the Joe Moore Award, it seems Jones’ arms are too short.

The OG sportswriter and Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz go back to 1993, when Ferentz was hired as Bill Belichick’s offensive line coach in Cleveland, so Ferentz was asked, tongue in cheek, if perhaps Jones was part turtle, or if the young man has ever needed any help getting off his back or paying for drinks with arms so dreadfully short.

PF can you go into that last post, edit it, set it how you want to see it and repost it? I think I fixed it.

I think its fixed Mike...I'm looking at the example in the Ferentz thread I just posted and that was well spaced right from the get go. THX!
