New Forum Layout

[TheRam]

Hey @TheRam - if everything was going to be made to look like it used to be, why bother with the upgrade at all?

You will get used to the differences soon enough.

I once bought a car with electric windows and Ford refused to put winders in... go figure.

And by the way, what's this @TheRam biz? Adding an @ sign doesn't make you cool and savvy you know.

Any thoughts of using Tapatalk to access on smartphones?

It can be done, just not turned on as yet.

I'll follow this up for you.

So far, not the biggest fan.

My three gripes:

• There doesn't seem a natural, easy way to see which threads have new posts in them (although I get the feeling this has been covered somewhere else and I just haven't found the answer yet);
• The little drop-down menu that allowed you to easily jump between forums from any page is gone;
• I don't like all the copying of social media crap - "Likes", @s etc - but this is a personal preference thing, not really a functionality thing.

EDIT: Looks like after I marked all forums as read that the little green dots indicate new posts. Is this right? If so, scratch the first point above.

• They have a green indicator beside that indicates that you have read that particular thread
• Yes there is, next your name click on the little box with the arrow, we will soon have this at the bottom of the age as well
  
• Tough shit.

Adding the @ sign before a posters name puts gives you an alert that you have been mentioned in a post and besides, nothing make me cool and savvy dude. I am way past those features.

@emjaycee ... made you look

 

[Twizzle]

@TheRam its done for a reason, you will have just received an alert saying you were mentioned in a post

 

[emjaycee]

@emjaycee ... made you look

• Cool;
• Cool (when it goes to the bottom of the page. The box at the top is, to be honest, shit and with poor functionality);
• Yeah, I know. I'm not to worried about it. Just thought I'd mention it. I can see that it has functionality but it's just not my cup of tea, which is sweet. Your forum, so you can add whatever wankery you want. @Hollywood Jesus will continue to use the forum.

The new layout etc. doesn't phase me. A month from now I won't even notice it. It's just the functionality of a few things, which I am sure is sweet but will just take some time to figure out/learn etc. So, @Hollywood Jesus is pretty chilled about the whole thing.

[Hollywood Jesus]
