| ADMIN NEW FEATURE: Improvements and additions to adding videos and images to your post (along with new editing features.)

[TerryP]

Here's another "Have You Seen" addition to the new features we've added during the latest upgrade.

Two things to point out I'll do over the next two posts:

One, how to upload videos from your phone or computer directly to the site without having to upload to a third party host (IE: YouTube, Vimeo, et. al.)
Two, improvements added to uploading and inserting images within your post.

For more of our latest features follow the link and see "Have You Seen!"

VIDEO UPLOADS ADDITIONS:

This is nothing new. It's working on the same principles as uploading images you have saved on your computer.

​

It's very simple with videos. Whether you have them saved on your phone (IE: videos taken at sporting events or anything you're doing) or videos you've saved on your computer, it's just a matter of clicking the "Insert Video" and following instructions from that point on.

​

It's an easy drag and drop or you have the option to click the box, then upload directly from your documents, videos, pictures, etc.

IMAGING EDITING ADDITIONS:

If you'd like you're more than welcomed to test out these features within this thread or on the FAQ/Site help section here on RTB.

After you have uploaded the image(s) all that's needed is to click on the picture for the image editor functions to appear. Here's a brief diagram of the improvements to the image options.

I love the new site. It's faster and more smartphone friendly. Please add the food channel to the filters at the top. Just saying. It is 11:30 pm and I'm hungry

We got the up arrow, will we get the down arrow? Asking for a friend!

I have started looking for it yet.

I'm glad you're enjoying the new upgrades as we're still working on adding even more.

As to your request about adding the food channel to the filters at the top. It's there, on the "Our Lives" forum. I honestly don't know how I could make it any easier or simpler--whether it be from a PC or if members are mobile using the responsive design. It's three clicks no matter where you are and it's all food threads.

Now, the "food" section/prefix filtering is available only on the non-sports node. I'm not going to add it here to the Bama sports side.

I'm wondering if I need to add a quick "How to" to describe how the Prefix filtering works. Do you think so? It's no big deal if you do...be glad to walk through it again.

I gave it a five up!

I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer by any stretch when it comes to most technology. Hopefully soon, I will be able to put an image on here for the very first time.
