Well, many LabVIEW users (such as yourself) are wondering how much work it will be to upgrade their projects to 8.5. What better way to find out?

Yes, you are right. This must be one of the meanest pranks NI has played on us. "Hey look, I can assign shortcut keys"... "oh, wait, they're gone" HaHaHa, fooled ya suckas!

Just want to let you all know that I've been fine tuning the LAVA Search page so that it returns more accurate and relevant results. I hope you can confirm this. I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I know there are still people out there that want more, but this is all I can do for now. Please note that the search form on the LAVA site is NOT the same as the generic Google search form with the site:lavag.org modifier. It is better because it is scoped with a back end exclusion\inclusion list which allows me to narrow the results to real and useful content.
This post reminded me that we still don't have a good repository of tips and tricks. So... I decide to create one on the Wiki. Our initial goal should be to weed through this thread and pull out the gems from there. Eventually that thread will redirect to the article. I've already started by adding the first tip. I think this will be awesome and should be a good article to point to for newbies or all of us in general.

Attention all church of LAVA worshipers. The LAVA site has now been cleansed of the evil daemon. Please continue practicing your normal rituals.
This is where we pass the collection plate around...

No, Premium Members should not see any Google ads. You probably caught it as I was editing. Please check again.
I screwed up my project with this feature so I think I should warn everyone. I'll be reporting to NI soon. Steps to reproduce:
open a blank project
Create and save 2 blank VI's
Place them in the following locations:
Right click on the subfolder and select "move on disk"
Create a new folder next to the subfolder, navigate into it and select "current folder"
Watch LabVIEW go "bye bye"
The fun part is going back into your files on the hard drive and seeing the mess. I spent a while cleaning this up after i did it on a real project.

Didn't you read http://forums.lavag.org/How-to-Quote-multiple-posts-t2780.html' target="_blank">the tutorial?
This is not a bug.
The initial upgrades are complete. Thank you for your patience. There are some minor glitches but all will be fixed over time.
Upgraded the forums to the latest release: Mostly bug fixes and theme\skin\style changes.
Upgraded the Gallery to the latest release: Some usability improvements. The noticable changes are a nicer quicker photostrip scrolling, now images popup in a thickbox when clicking the image to enlarge it and there are convenient URL boxes to the right of the image when you need to insert on another website or places where image attachments aren't allowed.
Also, I think you can now upload a zip file with multiple images and they will be decompressed and added to the gallery automatically.
There is also better navigation between currently viewed images:
Everyone, the LAVA Forums will be going through upgrades, fixes, tweaks and a face lift. So please please please be patient as I work through this. The consequence will be that the forums and the other areas of the site will be mostly offline for Sept. 8 and 9 this weekend. The site may not be down for the entire weekend but there are no guarantees. In other words, you can try visiting the site at various times because you might get lucky and the upgrades may be done.
I know this is not a bug and I'm not talking about child classes. I just want to create a VI and when I save it in the defined AP folder the class will include it. Is that so bad?
