I wondered what the little number on the tab meant.

Turns out it's to let you know you have a Private Message to check.

This system has a feature to have a little heart on each post, so you can "like" it kinda like Facebook, if Chris should want to enable it.
Then the number beside the notification will indicate "likes" you receive also...

At least you can be pretty sure most of them are still alive.

There's a part of me that would prefer to keep "likes" off of this forum....makes it less like Facebook.
I've refused to activate it on the phpBB board that I manage.

It would have been nice to have a forum use for dummies prior to turning it on. Some of us are not as computer each as others. Change for the sake of change is not always the right answer. Don't t know what all the buttons / icons do and don't want to waste time trying to figure out on my own. I need a do this then this type of instruction. Chris should have one.

Tmodelt,
At the top of every page on the left side in the light blue bar is a FAQ (frequently Asked Questions) I am not sure if Chris has had time to update it
to address concerns with the new format or not, but it would be a great place to start!
God Bless
Bill
