Supporters Gepard Posted March 18, 2018 Supporters Posted March 18, 2018 I haven't had a chance to look at it on a computer yet however on mobile I'm liking the new layout. I think the new user icons could do with reverting back. I don't think the colours fit in with the rest of the forum. I'm also not really a fan of the new 'like' emote and preferred the old style. It would be good if we could get some sort of dialog going between the forum and @Devastator. Whilst it's nice I don't think this is a change any of us particularly needed and there's certainly more pressing things we'd like to see implented.
Moderators djben9 Posted March 18, 2018 Moderators Posted March 18, 2018 yeah noticed last night on my phone, seems ok, nothing to serious....members who have no avatar are displayed as the letter their name starts with.... 'like' option look a bit weird, prefer the like or unlike option ,no need for tho 'mojis'
Supporters Samurai Posted March 18, 2018 Supporters Posted March 18, 2018 For me it's the new popup dialog when marking a forum read. I click the link, close the tab, then realize there was a popup, reopen the tab, reclick the link, OK the dialog, close the tab. Every. Single. Time. Probably I'll get used to it. Thanks for the upgrade though!
Root Admin proffrink Posted March 18, 2018 Root Admin Posted March 18, 2018 @Gepard This 'theme' update is almost certainly directly related to an IPB (Invision Power Board) update and likely never saw Devastator do anything except click a couple of things whilst applying a general update. I also don't like the emotes, but that's again IPB trying to Facebook-erize their forum software. We saw a big change with the status updates and the like when we moved from 3.x to 4.x just over a year back. This is the same deal, but again it's not Devastator doing it specifically.

Ah, my mistake then. From what other users said I was under the impression it was a feature that was manually changed. As Dev's last login was yesterday it tied in with the theory. Good to clear that up though!
Root Admin proffrink Posted March 18, 2018 Root Admin Posted March 18, 2018 I mean it's possible that it can be manually switched back, but in my experience the IPB team like to force these updates down ones neck so it's likely he had no idea and was just updating it as he usually does every couple of months :S

It happens to me sometimes and that fixes it. Often times it creates a duplicate post which a mod has to delete.
Guyver1 Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 its a firefox/mozilla thing. Just posted into the thread i was interested in using Edge. FF is normally my goto browser never had any issues with it. All very strange.
Root Admin proffrink Posted March 18, 2018 Root Admin Posted March 18, 2018 Check your adblocker too (if you're using one). Could be blocking the element.
Guyver1 Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 i'll square this up. It was me, had made some changes to my firewall and messed up the outbound routing . Sorted out my mess and all working fine now.
Guest pierce09 Posted March 25, 2018 Posted March 25, 2018 any idea how to stop the pop up dialogue box from opening every time I open a thread?
Root Admin proffrink Posted March 26, 2018 Root Admin Posted March 26, 2018 Is this still happening for you @pierce09?
Guest pierce09 Posted March 28, 2018 Posted March 28, 2018 I’m in Friday on the desktop and I’ll check

xWebster Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Just now, Gepard said: Literally just read it haha I like the blue
Moderators djben9 Posted April 10, 2018 Moderators Posted April 10, 2018 I’m not sure as only just seen it on phone......I’ll look tomorrow when on laptop....
MisterG Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 I'm fine with this layout, reliabilty over looks. Cheers G
Root Admin proffrink Posted April 11, 2018 Root Admin Posted April 11, 2018 Blue is gone. We like a nice shade of grey to reflect our moods. Also 80% width is back so that we're not all wasting monitor space.

Supporters Samurai Posted April 11, 2018 Supporters Posted April 11, 2018 While you are at it can you please make the link icon not so similar to the unread topics icon? Cheers
Root Admin proffrink Posted April 11, 2018 Root Admin Posted April 11, 2018 How else do we get people to click it though?
Supporters Gepard Posted April 11, 2018 Author Supporters Posted April 11, 2018 Blue - Unread Purple - Read That's usually how results appear for me on Google. I can still see the difference with the current format, but they are pretty similar.
Root Admin proffrink Posted April 15, 2018 Root Admin Posted April 15, 2018 Was joking, soz. I know it's misleading but hopefully it won't be there too long. If it stays then I'll change it.
