I already know I am gonna be one that is gonna be forced to move over more so cause I have been to lazy to update my bookmark button

Cat Mommy ThisIsME ⋅ November 21, 2016

Hehehehe, I was too lazy to change my bookmark for the first couple of days too. Glad I wasn't the only one!

crystal butterfly Cat Mommy ⋅ November 21, 2016

What are we supposed to be fixing on our bookmark button?

ThisIsME crystal butterfly ⋅ November 21, 2016

No (just making a joke) just mine still goes to prosebox.net I have not changed if to .com yet (and probably never will)

Cat Mommy crystal butterfly ⋅ November 21, 2016

You don't need to fix anything. We are talking about the link to this website. Bookmark as in your saved websites not the bookmarks here.

Naiad November 21, 2016

You're making it pretty darn awesome! I love the On This Day feature, but I'm particularly pumped for a possible future calendar. I used it constantly on the Motherland site. ;) lol

Deleted user November 21, 2016

Would it be really awkward to ask to have the option to remove the on this day feature? 😅

simple mind Deleted user ⋅ November 23, 2016

I think someone else mentioned this. I assume you don't mind seeing your own On This Day stuff, it's having visitors see it? I could probably add some setting like that - when I can get to it.

Deleted user simple mind ⋅ November 23, 2016

It's a bit of both really. I find looking at what I wrote on this day previously to be cringeworthy and embarrassing to myself let alone anyone else bahaha! I would appreciate the option in the future :)

TellTaleHeart November 21, 2016

Calendar, woot!

Cat Mommy November 21, 2016

Everything sounds awesome!

Lobbastah November 21, 2016

Please tell me how to make those check box thingies.

Teflon Superhero Lobbastah ⋅ November 21, 2016

Font Awesome, although I'm not sure which version he's using :)

Leanne 🌈 November 21, 2016

👍

Firebabe November 21, 2016

HOW DID YOU MAKE THE CHECKBOXES?!? SORCERY!!?

simple mind Firebabe ⋅ November 21, 2016

Font Awesome! Maybe I should add a little toolbar with some of those people might use in entries.

Cat Mommy simple mind ⋅ November 21, 2016

That would be excellent! I love Font Awesome but don't use it as much as I could because it's an extra site to go to and get the codes.

Deleted user simple mind ⋅ November 22, 2016

Yesssss

Jane Says November 21, 2016

Don't forget a beer fridge!

simple mind Jane Says ⋅ November 22, 2016

And the fully stocked wet bar. :)

raynedrop November 21, 2016

I totally dig the On This Day feature. I've reflected so hard because of it ;)
Thank you!

simple mind raynedrop ⋅ November 22, 2016

Yeah, it's particularly interesting when someone has a birthday or anniversary or something. :)

Deleted user simple mind ⋅ November 23, 2016

I like the On This Day feature too. Nothing shows yet because I haven't been here a full year but will be soon. Can't wait!

MageB November 21, 2016

Following your suggestions, I'm over at the .com. Smooth so far. Thanks.

Deleted user November 22, 2016

Just noticed the 'previous' and 'next' at the top of entries. Not sure if they've been there long but I've missed that simple nav option!

Deleted user November 23, 2016

Hi Simple Mind. Above Previous, there are three icons, Author, Book, and Bookmarks. Mine doesn't seem to work. Also, I am able to view my books by going to my front page but when I try to go backward and forward within the book it doesn't reflect just that book's entries. Hey, I hope you and yours have a great Thanksgiving! Gobble. Gobble.

simple mind Deleted user ⋅ November 23, 2016

Thanks WildRose. It should work but there is one thing that may be throwing you off. Every time you jump to the next entry, the tab switches back to Author. I'm going to fix that. But if you are currently careful to select the Book tab each time before hitting Previous/Next, it should stay in the same book. Works that way when I test it.

Deleted user simple mind ⋅ November 23, 2016

Problem solved! I did as you said and made sure to select the Book tab before going forward or back. Perfect. :) Thank you so much for the great tip. Wow! You got back to me right away. Thanks! That's very kind of you. I just love my books. It's great to have subjects separated. For example, I went to Hawaii in June (yeah Hawaii!) and I have all of my Hawaii entries together in a book. I'm able to go through them from beginning to end and it's so cool!. I also love my sister's dogs Vinny and Sparky and I have a book dedicated to those two stinkers. Like I said, I love having books! Well, thanks again. I really do hope you have a great Thanksgiving with your wife and two kids. I love Prosebox dot com!

Duke November 23, 2016

I am running both sites side by side (the luxury of dual 17" monitors) to get ready for the transition. Slowly getting used to the .com side. Any chance that times new roman would be available as a font?

simple mind Duke ⋅ November 24, 2016

Yeah, I'm the guy with dual 27" monitors next to his laptop screen. I'm all about luxury. ;)

So I take it you don't care for the current serif font? Lora, I think it's called. I don't know, maybe. Got too much stuff on my list right now. :)

Timmy™ November 27, 2016

I don't have a nickname for you. It's not that I disliked Bruce, but his abandonment of OD, well. I joked he became a gay porn star named Bang Bang Bruce. I actually had his home address at some point, as he lives near me. Yet, I couldn't bring myself to knock on his door.

Where was I going with this?

Oh. If I give you a nickname, I mean well. After all, you have yet to cause that squatter fiasco because he couldn't get his billing right. (I digress. I didn't mind buying a lifetime membership, as I stayed long enough where it paid for itself.)

simple mind Timmy™ ⋅ November 27, 2016

Heheh. Well I'm generally not offended by nicknames so I'm not too worried. Though to be fair, I did go off on somebody who recently complained on my journal about having problems logging in. He started out his comment, "Hey asshole". But that's not terribly clever, now is it?

Timmy™ simple mind ⋅ November 28, 2016

I would have gone with "Simplehole". Duh.

Ophidia November 29, 2016

I LOVE the "On This Day" feature! Thank you for adding it!
