New fixes since the last round of testing

This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (a host of the DU4 Bug Reports forum).

Below are the most important issues which were brought to our attention during the last round of testing. We believe that these have been fixed or otherwise addressed. Please let us know if you have any issues with the fixes below.

ISSUES WITH THE "MY STUFF" BUTTON

During the last round of testing we had a number of requests to improve the "My Stuff" button notifications. To address this, we have added some new options in My Stuff >> Account Settings -- scroll down to the section called "My Stuff" notifications.

You can now select from a few different styles when the button notifies you -- Default, Pulse, Subtle, Fade, Badge, and Solid. Feel free to test these out and select the one you prefer.

In addition, there are now options to select specifically which notifications will cause the My Stuff button to trigger.

ISSUE WITH FORCING MEMBERS TO PREVIEW BEFORE POSTING

By popular demand, we have put the "Post" button back on the first post page, so you are no longer forced to preview before posting. This also applies when sending DU Mail messages -- you are not forced to preview.

ISSUE WITH THE SELF-DELETE OPTION NOT APPEARING

When looking at one of your own posts, you can now click the "Powers" button at the bottom to see the "Self-delete" option. You should also see the Add to Journal/Remove from Journal option appear in this location.

The latter includes any number of options that work much better for me. Kudos!

Love the highlighting feature too!

I had a feeling that the flashing "My stuff" might be a bit much for some DUers. Will try out some of the notification types.
