• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Not sure if this has been brought up yet, but it seems like we lost the ability to post scripture reference that links to the scripture like it did previously. Any chance is this coming back? I really liked that feature. Thanks

Sure.

Previously if we posted scripture reference for example 1 John 1:9 it would be highlighted, and one could click on it to see the scripture text.

Also, it would be great to get the underline option back too!

Thank you!

The Bible used to be integrated into the forum, where you could access it via the forum menu and it would also auto hyperlink any scriptural reference in your post, so that a reader could click on it and go to a page (within the forum) with the scripture. It appears to have been some sort of mod that disappeared when you upgraded.

Example: John 3:16

Any reference in your post would be hyperlinked by the forum to point to the forum's built-in Bible, and go to a separate page with the quoted scripture via the link. This link (above) is going to Bible Gateway, because I inserted a hyperlink manually.

If you add it back in, it was set for NKJV.

If also would show other posts that quoted the same scripture. Pretty cool!

For a long time I've been manually linking my scriptural references to Bible Gateway out of habit. Occasionally I would forget to and it was nice to have the forum auto-link for me in those cases.
