Questions about IF's new layout

Hi everyone,

I had no idea that IF was changing its layout so when I came on, it took me by surprise at how different everything is. For some reason links are not working for me - when I try to put a link on text it doesn't seem to work. It says the page cannot be found or is deleted? Also, where have the emoticons gone?

Has anyone else been having troubles with the new layout or am I just technologically challenged?

LOL :D

let me know!

Unfortunately, some features have no issues, but, we don't know how to use them.

You can post your feed back at the following link. If you have time go through the comments, you will find answers to some of your questions

Forgot to tell you, since you are an author and need urgent response, you can directly message Vijay (the topic maker in the above link).

If you click on his name, you will see his profile and a tab to send him a message (PM).

Cheers.......

If you want to use IF emojis, you gotta drag and drop from older posts in desktop. 😆

An example of a link: Click here

To do the above, type a word, highlight it and click the link button and add the intended link in the 2nd tiny box they provide. I left it at _blank option.

Or just the plain link:

To do the above, paste the link and highlight it. Then click the link button.

Hey!! I'm sorry I don't know your name :-( can't see the desktop version on mobile. Do you have any idea? 🤔

@P and @N, I never realized there is a desktop version you can use on smart phone until yesterday. I have an android phone and I use Chrome.

When I saw these messages yesterday, I searched in Chrome on phone and found a Desktop site option in the Hamburger menu/Settings Menu. You can select and deselect that option to toggle between desktop version and phone version, I think.

I am learning lot of IT jargon. For the record, I am not a software person.

Hi.. no one technologically challenged.

Me 2 finding it very difficult to cope up! May be it will take its own time.

I’m having issues like pagekinks are not working, being kicked out from India forums and mostly the search option.
