Welcome to the new Miller Welding Forums! As you navigate your way around, we want to call out some specific areas, changes and enhancements to keep in mind:
Thank you,

- ‘Like’ and easily quote another user’s post.
- Easy photo upload with the ability to upload multiple photos and add captions.
- When uploading photos, you have the option to choose from photos you've already uploaded to the site that are now saved in your profile photo gallery.
- New Forums Interface – you can now go back and forth between forums, latest activity, subscriptions without leaving the page.
- View who is online and what they are looking at - see what other forum members are reading.
- Customize your profile to look and feel – even allowing you to update a status.
- See your private messages (called “Messages” now, not Notifications) at the top next to your username and profile option in right hand corner.
- Advanced search options - search specific boards and types of content to find information on your specific question or topic.
- Tag cloud – You can use this Tag cloud to see what the popular topics users are discussing on the forums, and click on one to see all posts tagged with that subject.
- Groups – use this space to create your own smaller groups to talk about specific topics, projects or processes.
- To edit your profile, click on your user icon on the top right side of the forum, choose “My Profile” and click “Edit Settings” on the left hand side of the page.
- To create a signature, click on your user icon on the top right corner and select “User Settings.” Click on the “Account” tab and scroll down until you see “Conversation Detail Options.” You’ll can select if you want to show signatures, Avatars and images, and underneath those is a small pen icon with the words “Edit Post Signature.” Click there to edit your signature
- Signatures will now show up on the side of your post (Under Topic View setting) under your profile image and next to the icon that displays if you’re online. By clicking on the pen icon, you can view a user’s signature.
- Viewing posts - Topic View vs. Stream View: In your User Settings (found under your user icon in the top right corner) you can change the way you view posts by clicking on Account and scrolling down under “Conversation Detail Options.” You can then choose how you would like to view posts. Selecting Stream View will default to displaying threads as you are used to seeing them.
Thank you,
