The changes I made were implemented in that post anyway (see Last edited by Al Gebra; 10-25-2017 at 01:28 AM...).

Just a temporary forum hiccup?

Yes, I've seen it happen before.

Do you have an idea what caused this error message? Did I do anything wrong?

No it wasn't you. It's caused by a temporary sync error in the multiple VBulletin servers we use.

Could we have a thumbs up icon that's actually a thumb (since it already exists) rather than a demented worm and also go back to the old quote button (rather than a thumbs up icon)?

Thanks.

Thanks.

The quote button does not have a "thumbs up" on it from what I see. The Thanks button does.

Nothing has been changed as far as buttons and icons here since this version of VB was installed.

OK, something must not be displaying correctly for me for some reason. All I see is a thumb with no button for "reply with quote".

It's probably one of two issues. If you use AdBlockPlus, Easylist blocks some of the scripts used here. If you use NoScript, you have to allow yahooapis.com for the buttons to display correctly.

**gordian_knot** · October 27th, 2017, 09:27 PM

yahooapis.com is allowed, but it probably is a browser/script issue. I use uBlock Origin and NoScript. Allowing all scripts didn't help. Switching to another browser may fix it. Otherwise I'll live with it.

Yep, it looks like that for me as well now. It's corrected itself.

I temporarily allowed all scripts, then when it didn't have any affect, revoked temporary permissions. I didn't notice any changes but now it's OK.

If Jenny hasn't done something then I have no explanation

. We need a shrug smilie
