  • New post testing forum and topic

    Following a great suggestion by @twbartender, I’ve created a new Testing Forum, and a new Test Topic, that you can use to see if your posts are going to look OK.

    There’s a link to the Testing Forum down at the bottom of the Forum list on the right side of the screen.

    And the Test Topic is the first topic in the forum.

    If you aren’t sure about the formatting of what you’re about to post, then post your new Topic in the Testing Forum, or your new reply in the Test Topic, and — if it turns out the way you want — copy the entry over to the “live” forums.

    Note that this is totally self-service. If your post looks good, the monkey’s still on your back to post it where it belongs.

    Anonymous posts are not suitable for the testing topic, as Anonymous posters cannot modify their own posts. Any anonymous test post is subject to trashing without review.
