Forums 101 | Posting Help, Account and Forum Basics

First how to post pictures on site. Second, best way to block heat\sun in windows. Have heard silver reflective stuff bad for window seals??? Thanks!

Your first question's answer depends on your interface. On the desktop version, you can either use the paper clip icon which will probably allow you limited space only, or you can use a third party platform like Imgur to create a photo stash from which you can then embed photo frames (I do the latter). I don't use a mobile app for this forum so I can't comment on its function.

You'd get a better traffic pattern if you'd post your second question in a topical portion of the forum, probably in the General Discussion Area. Although with a quick glance, I didn't see a thread devoted to it.

We certainly have a detailed thread about blocking heat on Air Forums (Airstream Class Bs, but the heat blocking predicament is common to all Class Bs irrespective of brand). It discusses window coverings both exterior and interior, as well as insulation, reflective roof coatings, tints, and other topics. You can see that info here.
 
Not sure if anything has changed on the forum, but I can't seem to stay logged in anymore when I access the forum via the Chrome Browser (Version 71.0.3578.98 (Official Build) (64-bit)). Right after I log in, the site immediately goes back to a non-logged in state. I am able to stay logged on when using Microsoft Edge (version 42.17134.1.0).

Maybe something was recently changed with cookies? Any suggestions?

Thanks

As you login, check the remember me box. That should allow the login cookie to be saved on your system unless you have set up your security settings (on your system) to purge cookies at page changes.
 
Unfortunately, this was not helpful. Still don't know how to post. Guess I'll just have to read posts of interest. Disappointing that I can't post! The site would be more helpful if I was able to initiate a post.

But you just posted... which suggests that you can post comments on any other thread you wish to post to... just as you did on this one.

Do you mean initiate a new thread or add a post to an existing thread? Were you trying to include a link?
 
How to post a new question (thread)

Questions or a new topic thread can be started in the section of the forum that best fits the topic you have in mind. Once you have posted your question you can edit that post for a brief period of time.
  • Log into the forums.
  • Click on the "forums" tab at the top of the page. You may see a list of subforum/topic areas.
  • Click on the subforum that best suits your intended post. Once it opens you will see a list of threads already in that subforum. At the top of the list, over toward the left, you should see a "new thread" button.
  • Click on the new thread button and follow the prompts.
  • Once you have crafted your post, click on the submit reply button below the text editor to submit your post to the board.
I don't see a 'New thread' button on any page. Can you clarify where I should look?
 
I assume the person that posted this was trying to add a new thread. I cannot add a new thread either. How is it done?
 
To start a thread:

1) Click on "FORUM" at upper left.
2) Scroll down and select the forum into which you would like to post
3) A "New Thread" button will appear on the left near the top of the screen.

In case it is helpful to others... For me, I realized that on my PC, the 'New Post' option only showed up in some browsers. It did not show up for me in Chrome. So if you do not see it, try a different browser.
 
I'm using a Chrome Box browser at the moment. The new thread and more shows up in the bottom left area.

I would like to change my username from ckill to GoldenEra. How do I do that? Thanks

Use the "Contact us" link at the bottom of any page. I cannot do that, but somebody who can should be able to help you.

the "user experience" and ads seen will vary greatly depending on the browser and computer you use - and your browser settings


I see some ads but none are distracting, and i have no popup windows or anything like that


cheers, Mike
