@burnout426 Just so you know, all the boilerplate is there for a reason:
I see the reason for the use of:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <meta name="x-apple-disable-message-reformatting">, the use of CSS (media queries and such) in STYLE, and the use of inline styles for clients that don't use (or strip out) STYLE tags. But, is it really necessary to use TABLE and CENTER to lay out everything, especially for a simple notification email?
I'm not really thinking Table vs. CSS (although the latter would be preferable). Just thinking all that table markup is a lot of noise for a simple notification email.
That's just all on the side though. The actual problem in NodeBB is the big image at the top of the email. Getting rid of the image and the black space above it would make things so much better.

Yes, as said earlier - we are in the process of writing our own, branded templates. The header is definitely going to be slimmer.
But I am sure our friends from NodeBB team are also interested in feedback about the default ones

Yes, that was my intent with the post.

The "black space" is actually where the headers are, black text on a black background, as you can see if you select it!

It's a rather ancient copy of Eudora!
I think in other clients the black band does not include the headers and is therefore not as wide.

@amatczak Yes, after testing for a while, the link in notification emails does indeed work correctly where it navigates to the correct post.

@amatczak I'm sure you're right, and it doesn't surprise me.
It is a very old program, not updated since 2006, and does struggle to display some modern e-mail formats properly.
Its one saving grace is that it's one of the few (possibly only) e-mail clients that allows you to edit and re-save received messages, so it's usually possible to correct the display problems.
I keep using it because I have an archive of messages stored in it going back to the 1990s, but I really should let it go now!

Hmm, I'm looking for a link to list all threads I'm watching. I'm not seeing one.

Nevermind. Found it. I had to go to my profile, click the 3 vertical dots and choose "watched".

Hmm, I don't think all/any of my starred threads from the old forum were automatically watched in the new forum. I'm guessing there wasn't an easy conversion for that.

There is no FAQ on Linux forums, nor on Mac's.
I don't use Linux nor Mac so it would be kinda complicated for me to create a FAQ for those systems.
There is no reference to Windows FAQ into *Nix / Mac forums for shared fixes
I'll probably try to create one general FAQ for Opera for desktops to cover things that aren't OS specific.
After looking at Profile's options, can not find any option to add a signature.
I was talking about the new forum.
As I've been seeing, you can:
-
Ask to Opera employees to help on this task.
-
Ask to @Sgunhouse (if I'm not wrong he's playing with Linux and Mac).
-
Take a look at those forums, right now they have the most common asked questions and most of the fixes found by the users themselves.
-
Open a thread asking for missing FAQ points.
Not a task just for you @LeoCG but for all Opera Employes - Opera's forums Moderators.

Talking about the FAQ, haven't seen it, and the "How to post about a problem" either.
Still repeating the same answers...

I would personally enjoy having a more rapid experience for "review post" period. I just recently posted two replies (over an hour ago) and none of my posts are published. I even refreshed the page, nothing. Deleted all history, and restarted opera and logged back into forums.opera.com..and still nothing. I am hoping the processing time it takes from clicking "post" to actually seeing the post publish is more speedy with the new forum. That would be a major improvement.
thanks...looking forward.

edit: it reads "queued for review"...I understand the need to filter unwanted or undesirable content, based on rules, but there is nothing within any of my posts that would be offensive or out of bounds. I am hoping the new forum will shorten the delay time.
