@meed18 said in Skin to make this look like FWF?:
Is there a way for someone to create a skin that makes this place look like FatWallet Forums? (light grey, dark grey, and white)
Yes there is.
We’re using https://bootswatch.com/spacelab/ right now.
If someone wanted to tweak it, we should be able to add it as a theme.
Last time they were offering free 1 day shipping for the kindle deal. I took it and of course LaserShip missed the deadline (for 3/4 kindles). At least I got the kindle I needed that day.
@pruhtp said in Retailer subforum:
@dangeruss So know the next question is why can’t you create pins just like in free stuff in YMMV?
Official Staples’s Clearance YMMV Master Thread
We can. You just need to ask a moderator to do it for you.
You can just flag your post and write a note asking us to pin it.
@uncamikey said in Welcome FatWallet Refugees:
@dangeruss Thanks for your work in setting this up. I really appreciate the efforts of you and others to quickly come up with a FWF alternative.
You’re welcome, but it’s you, the community that makes this place so great. So thank you for joining, and welcome!
I understand from your posts on FWF there are software/admin issues between the platforms. I hope that over time we all end up congregating in one place – right now I’m checking FWF, PhatWallet, and Fragiledeal. (I don’t see SD or Reddit as reasonable alternatives.) Strength in numbers!
I’m not sure what FWF is, but as far as Fragiledeal goes, they have picked an inferior platform. Although I’m a little jealous that it has the wiki functionality built in (which we need for quick summary), knowing Jeff it’s built in exactly the wrong way with no hope of changing it. I believe Jeff doesn’t believe in pagination either, a feature that we have (though he may have changed his mind in the last couple of years, but I doubt it).
Another big issue for the other platform was lack of scalability. It was always having weird, unexplained performance issues and crashes. When told that it doesn’t support large threads well, Jeff’s response was - “Don’t create large threads”.
The nodeBB dev team is much easier to deal with (as we shall soon see for ourselves, since it looks like we found a pagination bug).
@frugalfreak said in Welcome FatWallet Refugees:
@dangeruss yup went back to 20 for me, but seeing more than 20
Thanks can you post it in the bugs subforum? I’ll verify and reach out to the dev team.
@velociraptor said in Withdrawing From Roth:
To start, no, it does not matter which ROTH IRA account you are pulling from.
Assuming no conversions or rollovers within the past 5 years, and you set up any ROTH IRA for yourself more than 5 years ago, you should not have to worry about the 5-year language.
So you can’t pull the money out if you’ve been doing backdoor IRA?
@frugalfreak said in Welcome FatWallet Refugees:
@dangeruss changed mine to 50, it is working for me
@TheDiggler maybe it was a glitch, can you try again?

Looks like threads don’t have page numbers (yet). Hopefully that’ll be addressed as this site gets enhanced. In the meantime, just saying hello.
This forum has infiniscroll, but if you prefer pagination, you can enable it under your settings.
So it does… Doesn’t seem to let you configure beyond 20 Topics per page or 20 Posts per thread. I increased both to 50, SAVED SETTINGS, then refreshed the settings page. It reverted both values back to 20. Regardless, pagination is more FW-like. Thx!
Thanks, I’ll have to file it as a bug if true.

I have never heard any one saying they won the big prices.
I want to know who does. Every one is getting the $2 gift cards for sure.
My in-laws supposedly won the VR headset or whatever it was. Not exactly a big prize, but at least it’s something.
Obviously you need a T-Mobile account to take advantage of this.

Yes this area is just to play around so you can get familiar with the forum functionality.
@pruhtp said in Retailer subforum:
@dangeruss Yes. If you go over to SD and look up my posts they were simple. Store, Description, Price, B&M, YMMV.
Yes I understand that we should be putting that into the title, but I don’t think I’ve seen any forums (SD included) have a YMMV subforum.
If we do create one, what should be call it? Just “YMMV” and post it under deals?
@pruhtp said in Retailer subforum:
@dangeruss Under the heading of Deals, place a icon for YMMV deals as it’s not really a Hot Deal as it’s not everywhere and it doesn’t fit into deal discussions or expired deals. The major players from FW and SD will know exactly how and what to post in it
So like another subforum?
@pruhtp said in Retailer subforum:
@jaytrader Create a YMMV thread leader icon and let’s see where it goes. I have the Staples FW people on board ready to use it.
I don’t think subforums for every retailer makes sense, but we could use tags for that.
I’m not too clear on what you mean by YMMV thread leader icon, and how would we use it?

@mrsguin said in Forum Navigation:
@dangeruss I no sooner finished that post than you already had implemented what I was referring to.
I don’t think I implemented anything new today…
@mrsguin said in Forum Navigation:
Here I am, being a pest again. Knowing how much you all have to do I’m sorry, just want to mention how much harder it is to go through the posts when the entire post is what you see instead of the one line to click on to get to the entire post. I am sure you will get around to it eventually.
I’m not sure I’m following you. Can you elaborate a bit?
@rsuaver It will be enabled if/when spam becomes an issue.
Looks like all your links just go to target.com
Here’s the link to the offer:

I gave them a card with $1 on it and it went through.
