Upgrading the forum

[Admin]

I'm loving the new software, did some reading up and it's made by two ex developers of vBulletin which was always my favourite script to use a few years ago. I was wondering how long it would be until forums started using facebook style alerts and etc.

Admin one thing I just noticed is the textarea for posting doesn't seem to act responsively any more, maybe it does if I view this on a phone or a tablet but if you resize the window on a desktop the dreaded horizontal scrollbar appears.

Yea, vBulletin are trying to sue them now as well.

Resizing the text-editor doesn't quite work the same as with standard page elements. Resize then refresh the page and it slots into place.

Everything looks like a quote now :avbfacepalm:

I find this somewhat distracting, as well.

See the breadcrumbs at the top? Click the little icon on the right of them.

dropdown menus >>>> breadcrumbs

dropdown menus >>>> breadcrumbs

They're 2 different things. Or are you saying breadcrumbs should be a drop-down?

In terms of navigation, a drop-down menu would be easier to jump from forum to forum. Could it be at the top and bottom of the page? Love you. x

Breadcrumbs show you where you are in the site. They're not supposed to let you jump whole sections, that's what the little icon to the right of breadcrumbs does. I realise that actually involves clicking though. Exercise your trigger finger x

Me neither.

 

[Éperons]

where it says "Forums", it just doesnt sit right....it feels like forum is plural too, like sheep, and fish? Probably wrong

No, you're right. "Forums" is a slap in the face.

It should read "Fora".

I think the forum could use some yellow borders left and right of the posts.

Just saying

Éperons They released a new version of the tagging thing today so I updated it. How good of them to remove all the permissions.

Try now?

Makes no difference. maria already repped the Glee gif.

(er, I typed "(at)maria already" and the output was "(at) (link)(at)maria(/link)already", so it's a bit of a mess.)

Whatevs Éperons , seems to be fine.

Having someone on 'ignore' is really fucked up on the new forum as it doesn't even tell you you've ignored the post......a couple of threads make no sense whatsoever

(if no one replies to this I guess I'd better take the hint! lol)
