Forum update - test thread

[Barry Admin]

Sorry about the disruption there, I noticed an update which made the software final was out, so had to update it as soon as I saw it really. 

I'm amazed it's gone so smoothly so far, let me know of any issues.

Need to fix spoilers and stuff, be careful of that for the meantime.

[Famous Mortimer]

I like the slightly new look.

[Greg Torso]

I really like the bigger avatars.

[Ambient Sheep]

Yay, page numbers back at top AND bottom!!

Not sure about the extra spacing between threads on the forum listings but I expect I can get used to it.

[Icehaven]

Is it just me or has the funky Cook/Morris banner at the top of the page gone?

[Barry Admin]

This is just the default look! I'll be adding back the other theme I'm sure. And I'll be able to customise it more now as it won't get fucked up by new release candidates all the time

The forum is basically reset at the minute, it all needs to be customised again. 

[Mister Six]

"Mister Six and 0 guests are viewing" General Bullshit, apparently. Has the counter gone a bit odd?

[GoblinAhFuckScary]

fuck this looks so nice and tidy. minus the lovely banner ofc

missed the big avatars

[shoulders]

Think this update is a bit of an improvement so far!

[Barry Admin]

:-(

I mean it's kind of a shame as it's just the default lol, I will have to customise it so strap in

Edit: (Can always make this available as an alternate skin again I guess)

[The Mollusk]

Fuck yes big avatars, get in

[GoblinAhFuckScary]

Aw I like it however it is! The way it is now feels particularly clear though. I felt there was a problem with the way avatars were formatted before?

Edit: if it's possible to choose this as an alt I'd like that! Personally, my fave was the previous just because I found it easier to read. Obviously completely subjective xx

[Cold Meat Platter]

Very nippy compared to how it's been recently.

[Ambient Sheep]

I initially thought people were joking about the bigger avatars, because I can't see any at all on mobile; setting to Desktop Mode reveals them. :-)

[Small Potatoes]

Can't see any avatars on iPhone. Maybe that's by design? I do like the layout though and it feels faster.

That was the compromise that meant I could get them on mobile portrait mode, they had to be smaller overall on the theme that was used upto this afternoon.

Hopefully now I can fix that properly and add page numbers at the bottom etc. The whole responsive theme business is still new to me.

Try landscape.

[Small Potatoes]

Try landscape.

Ooh yes! There they are. Weird. Thanks for that :)

[Catalogue of ills]

Can't see any avatars (Android, Ecosia)

[madhair60]

Looks great!

[TrenterPercenter]

Is it just me or can anyone else remember what old CAB looked like? - it's been completely deleted from my mind now.  Weird.

Ignore these numbskulls BA, just get it back how you want it!

I get this whenever anyone I know has a haircut. Previous look deleted from memory.

[Ambient Sheep]

As mentioned above, I now have page numbers top and bottom (on mobile Android); no such work required!

Interesting... I'd already tried rotating to Landscape on my Android phone and still no avatars on the mobile theme.  Maybe it depends on the screen size (this is an old S7)?

Yes, yes it does, rotating to Landscape on my larger Android tablet gives me avatars.

Only on this default theme, it will presumably still require manual editing when I reinstall the other theme, as it's not included by default. Dunno why.

[Barry Admin]

Sadly can't see a tagging system yet, but I'd imagine it's imminent now that the software has moved to 2.1, fingers crossed. Haven't had a chance to see what new features or fixes there are yet, bear with me as I'll be tinkering.

[Norton Canes]

The font's gone a bit small, I guess it'll be back to its usual size soon

[Mr_Simnock]

spoilers gone

[Barry Admin]

Gonna install the other theme again now, then I can add spoilers and stuff back aye

[Dex Sawash]

I plan to moan about the PREVIOUS TOPIC/NEXT TOPIC controls missing from bottom of threads when it is appropriate to moan about those sorts of thngs.
