We are discussing sig limits internally

I would like a physical size limit over number of characters.

Has the alert system got even worse?

On mobile in portrait and landscape the bottom of the badges is missing

I want my BLUE back!! This color of Blue is too sleepy!! We need the deeper blue back in the pallet!!

Pretty Please?!?!

I don't like the look of my headlines, in the WCG News posts, using this new, pale, Blue!

Edit:
#0011ff

That's the color I would like, added to the pallet.

The current idea is to just cut it off at 140 vertical pixels.

RejZoR · Mar 24, 2018

@W1zzard
I've noticed listed subforums are positioned under the "Sub-forums:" text/label. To lower the vertical footprint, I suggest placing them next to the text/label. There are never so many of subforums that you'll run out of horizontal space.

Like so:
Sub-forums: [AMD] [NVIDIA]

Instead of:
Sub-forums:
[AMD] [NVIDIA]

I did not know this was an option, thank you. Yes, I do it even though I don't think it should be allowed, same as my behavior when I attend strip clubs.

If it were minimized to a standard size format like other websites I would not have to hide everyones sigs though, including my own

edit: oh sweet mama, no sigs is wonderful. thank you so much LOL, website looks clean now 10/10

There's some kind of problem where you don't see the "rate" link, in some posts. Sometimes you see and don't see in the same topic, as seen in the pics below:

Both screenies are from this topic.

Some sort of bug?

Also, and unrelated: if you rate X post with ... say ... +1, but later change your opinion and rate it again to ... say ... +2, does it count as one rate (for the ranking)?

Has the XenForo site software been updated again recently? I'm no longer experiencing those terribly la input delays on my iPhone 5c

maybe its posts made from Before the rating was implemented?? i know likes in certain threads have been translated to ratings in some places.

meaning if you see a post from a while back that has no rating, t will also have no likes....im thinking that might be it

Look @ the post in question: https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...ing-you-download-your-data-file.242000/page-2

Huh, is the "Find Threads" feature new? Perhaps I will get blindest member of the year award, but I honestly never noticed this option. It's quite handy if you want to refer to something from the past.

W1zzard · Mar 26, 2018

HTC said:

there is a time limit how old the post can be until it can't be rated anymore

HTC said:

it counts as a single updated vote (so +2 in your case)

nope. there is a new version though which i'll update to later today or tomorrow

it's probably part of xenforo 2.0 which we've used since dec last year

W1zzard said:

Apparently, that's not accurate:

As can be seen in the pic, one post is from last year while the other is from today and yet, today's post also doesn't have the "rate" option.

Yup, I'm making some code changes, so I disabled the rating function, so you guys dont break everything

Edit: Rate links are now enabled again

How long is that time limit? I'm not seeing the rating option on any comments, including new ones(less than a day old).

EDIT; Nevermind. Just saw the new posts and it's back..

W1zzard · Mar 26, 2018

it's currently set to 1 week, just because i had to pick some value

HTC · Mar 26, 2018

W1zzard said:

That doesn't make much sense, IMO.

If i happen to find some post in a topic where i discover good information but just so happens is more then 1 week old, i can't rate it. Seems not too bad while the like system is still in place but, once that's gone, what then?

Unless ofc that one week value is temporary.

W1zzard said:

Can we keep the "Like" then? Sometimes we cross paths with a thread/post older than a week/month/year. If it deserves a "thanks" or "like" or whatnot, it would be nice to still be able to do so.

maybe 3 months? 6 months?

HTC · Mar 26, 2018

W1zzard said:

Would it not be best to have that period be the forum's inception date? That would make any and all posts rate-able.

Example: say i come across a post regarding networking that directly relates to the router i'm using. This post has some nice information but just so happens it's from ... 2016 ... should i not be able to rate it just because it's "too old"?

Valuable information should be rate-able regardless of how old it is, no?

W1zzard · Mar 26, 2018

My concern is with people downrating old content out of spite. But I guess this can be cleaned up by the mods when detected.

Likes are now synced with rates
