This thread is for quick inquiries. Maybe someone could propose a thread to discuss Setterfield's ideas over at Proposed New Topics.

Re: Searching for a very old post
Hi Faith,
Click on "Search" to go to the search page and enter "grand canyon" (including the quotes), select "Geology and the Great Flood" (or whatever forum you think it was), and enter "Faith" in the author field. This will find threads going back to 2005.
Go to the first page of any thread, open the thread details, click on "Fetch" next to you name to list all your posts in that thread. Look at each page of your posts to see which ones have images. Repeat for each thread you think is a likely candidate.
But the images may no longer display because after 7 years wherever you put them or got them from may no longer exist. If you remember how the pathname for the images might have begun I may be able to dig out the pathnames for you, but that won't help you find the image.

Re: Polling Feature
AZPaul3 writes:
Actually, as a feature to Percy's eventual commercial product, that really is not a bad idea.
It's on the todo list. I don't know if other discussion board software implements polling the same way I envision, but when I do add polling I'll also be giving members the ability to identify themselves along a variety of different categories, the board software giving the webmaster the ability to define as many different categories as he needs. For example at this board I might allow members to define themselves along the creation/evolution axis (young Earth creationist, old Earth creationist, theological evolutionist, evolutionist, etc), and also on the gun control axis (for/against), and also on the political spectrum (Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, independent, etc.). Then during and after a poll the software would present reports broken down along board demographics.
If anyone has suggestions or has used polling at other boards and has come across features they'd like to see, please reply to this message and I'll keep them in mind when I do finally get around to design and implementation.

Re: Search
There's only one page of search results, if I remember correctly I set the limit to 200. Adding pages of search results is on the todo list.

Another question. I don't see my member rating anymore. What happened?
A member needs a minimum of 10 messages to have received a vote before the software displays a rating. When Adminnemooseus changed the amount of time the software looks back from 90 days to 30 days he made it more difficult to reach that minimum 10.
There was an earlier suggestion to make the software look back n messages instead of n days, and I've added that option to my todo list.

There's no Facebook video equivalent to the [youtube/utube] dBCode, but I could "easily" create a [facebook/fbook] dBCode. I'll try to squeeze it in when I need a break.

Re: Missing message
The image's website is either no longer permitting direct access to it, or it no longer exists and the website is trapping the missing reference.

Re: Latex Help
The forum's help for the [latex] dBCode can be found at Latex Help. It includes a link to NASA's Latex Help.

I took a photo of it, but for some reason this forum now refuses to display photos.
If you point me to an example I'll try to figure it out.

Re: What French Toast (Pain Perdu) is Called Elsewhere
I haven't been able to fix this but will continue to look at it. The image displays fine in Firefox, displays displaced to the right in Safari (will be fixed), but won't display in Chrome or Edge. Both Chrome and Edge display the image fine in a separate tab but get an error when they try to load the image for display in an EvC message.

Re: What French Toast (Pain Perdu) is Called Elsewhere
Just figured it out. It's a security issue. Chrome will not display http images on an https page. The problem should have begun for you as soon as I moved the website into the cloud, because I changed it from http to https at the same time. That would have been January of 2019.
I know how to work around this and should have it fixed soon.
If it's possible to flip your site into https mode, that would also fix the problem.
