Forum upgrade complete

I dig the sticky header! :toast:
 
It's just too simple, but i can get used to it. At least there is a big forum that changes once in a while the theme other big companies don't even take the time for that xD so yeah!!
 
This new layout is quite nice I think. I prefer this layout :)

The one thing i would sell my soul for is a dark theme, though :)
 
I like that we can now "like" in a conversation.
Not sure how I feel about the lack of a dialog box when clicking on an individual post's number. I liked the click-copy-paste of the way it was.
 
It's fine i think.
But i prefer the former news section
 
I cant find the " Warnings youve received" thing. As you dont always get a notification of points its handy to have somewhere you can click to keep up to date as the tally ebbs and flows.

I liked Recent Posts a lot, too, but it seems they removed it. I think on the right side (search filters) you can change the default setting, not sure if that works.

It does work. Thanks, that makes New Posts work like the Recent Posts of the old forum. It makes sense to do it this way, since it removes clutter and lets the user decide how they want their New Posts displayed. Thanks, I didn't see the option to the right before you pointed it out!

Click you username at the top right, then click your username again right under that.

I think you can also click on your username in any of your posts, then click the little gear icon.

Like you....uuuuuuuummmmm, i mean Thankyou

Fuck it, old traditions die hard with me
hhhhh.PNG
 
testing

EDIT: test complete. me likey.
 
I don't suppose there's anyway to change the "Like" to "Thanks"? It really doesn't matter, technically speaking, but I prefer "Thank"ing someone for a useful post over "Like"ing.....

** edit

  • I do like the new edit functions greatly.....
  • Would love the ability to darken a theme.....
  • I did lose a PM during the shift, I assume it had something to do with it not working at all.. I must have sent in the old forums right at the changeover :)
  • I like the locked "What's New" at the top :)

Like last time, my main request is to get the box back at the top of the forum with the most recent posts.
 
The more I use it, the more I wish the sections list, and any time there is a thread list, that the background was alternating between light and dark. So that it was easier for you eye to pick a thread/topic, then look to the right and see the replies and views and when the last message was.

Something like this:

I've just realized that our two forum leaderboards are gone. Are they coming back?
 
Where’s the news section
 
some parts are nice but between each post there isn't a bar or some kinda divider and it looks just a jumbled mess :( the rest are fine

However a bug with using any kinda font changers the glyphs are just boxes.

The data tables in my benchmark results threads are broken. Is there a way to fix that?

EDIT: I just realized I've lost the ability to edit my OPs in said threads(links in sig) too. So if I could get that restored too, that would be great. Thanks!

@MrGenius ...............Yeah also my ability to allow you to edit posts has gone too.

i started a thread less than 3 days ago and i cant edit the title or OP.
 
Any chance we could get a darker skin? All the white at least for me is giving me a headache pretty quickly but I may just have sensitive eyes nowadays.
 
I didn't get an alert that I'd been mentioned by @Tatty_One in a post. The box for it is checked under my alert preferences.

I'm not seeing this either. Windows 8/8.1/10 have the "Edgy", sharp angled flat look that a 5 year old with crayons could do better than. This look is a more rounded, 3D look that has a very classy appearance.

well it looks like weirdness on the mobile interface and for everyone else that is looking for the edit button there are three dots which is called an ellipsis click on that and a Edit oPTION should come up

@W1zzard
Problem to report, on mobile interface the "Home" link in the main "hamburger" by the Forum pulldown/chevron menu does not work at all. Also where did the option of page numbers go to?

That will be added in the coming days (another custom addon I have to code)
