Helpful Hints: New Board Features, CLEAR Cookies and Password

[SCPrepTalk]

Because the site was updated to newer software, posters will need to CLEAR your Cookies and Password.
Once that has been CLEARED, then just LOG back into the site and you will be able to post again.
If you still can't get LOGGED IN,
You might have to clear your Cache and History as well.

2. ZOOM IN- New version of the board was more streamlined for phones. PC users will notice that the site is not quite as large on the screen as the previous version. You may need to simply ZOOM IN on the board to enlarge the text. I typically read the board on 110% using Mozilla Firefox.
(CTRL key and +) to enlarge on most browsers.

Google Chrome- MENU, Zoom+
Mozilla Firefox- MENU, Zoom+
Microsoft Edge- MENU, Zoom+
Microsoft Internet Explorer- MENU, Zoom and Custom
Vivaldi- MENU, View, Page Zoom In

3. NOTIFICATIONS- Choose what notifications that you would like to receive.

New "MEDIA" extension has been added to the board.
-gives the ability to display the video on the site (not just simply post links)

How to the use the MEDIA extension.
You can COPY and PASTE the web address(URL) of a video from a site like YouTube.
Many other media sites also work.

For example the Summerville vs. Wando game from August of 2019.

Code: Select all

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ltQKWtjqcI

Copy that URL into a post. Highlight the entire address. Then press the media button located here.


CODE should look like this...

Code: Select all

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ltQKWtjqcI[/media]

Once you click "SUBMIT" the post should look like this.
