Tom Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 If the forum is more mobile friendly wouldn't it eliminate the need for the app? Mysterio Ka and David B 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Tapatalk will hopefully work now. As Tommy said the forums are more mobile friendly now so may mean you prefer to use it this way now. David B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pognoi Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 The new site looks awesome, but I too have a couple points. 1. Are you gonna slap a theme on here at some point? 2. The user history doesn't seem to be working. I went to look at someones post history and it loaded nothing... Might this be because they haven't yet posted on the new site? If so would it be possible to load data from the old site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for user history - I beleve this will start to work soon - at the moment the forums are doing all sorts of things in the background with caches so hopefully once that's done that will reappear!

RobF Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Marc is it possible to get a better contrast between read and unread topics ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Send a screenshot of where on the forums you mean and we can look into it. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Dimensions Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Would be nice to have the option to change to the older style, this one looks way too modern and clean for my liking. (I'm a member on the Muse boards where you can change themes, even to those back when their forums started). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't the final skin for the forum - will look into how possible it is to use older skins as an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celia Mae Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 The mobile site no longer skips to your oldest unread post when you enter a thread, it just takes you to the beginning if you click on the topic title or the end if you click on the last number like the desktop site Olistjj and RobF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam T Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!.. Just kidding, looking good & refreshed guys! Will look better once the new skin is on and everything is a little cleaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieN Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I like it. It's clean, fresh, simple and modern. Not the most practical but you can't have it all! And after 10Hrs, I've finally figured out how to post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always had that experience on the old desktop site too On another note noticed a thing with the new desktop site, not sure what I make of all the personal information about a person that gets shown under the avatars now. Firstly the way it's displayed makes it difficult to differentiate the facts from each other and looks quite messy. Secondly it is just quite a lot of information. As well as all the info we used to have like post count, title, what group they're in and their username (which imo was all you need to know about a person when just reading a post) we now see people's gender, where they live, interests, favourite ride AND favourite park, and depending on how much they have written on their own profiles it's a lot of text and makes the posts take up a lot of space. Also just not really sure how I feel about all that about me being put out there every single time I post. People want to know what I'm interested in, they can click on my profile. pognoi, pluk, Ryan and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roodie Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I click on the blue dot next to the topic and it takes me to my last post I have read. I am using the desktop version. Ian-S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roodie Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 The blue button works from the new content and the sub-forum lists. If I click on the last topic from a forum on the main page it still takes me to the last post. I'm using firefox if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieN Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 I've also end up reporting everything because I touch a post. So sorry if I've reported you, it was unintentional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can confirm if you click the blue dot on the main page or next to a sub forum it acts like 'mark forum as read' for that section like on the old desktop site, and if you press the blue dot/star (depending if you've posted in it before) next to a topic link it will take you to the oldest unread post in that topic Ian-S 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Just a small point, it now requires you to log in with your display name rather than user name (not sure if this was intentional or not). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point - this is a change, display names are no more in this version and everything is based from your username. Coaster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also something funky going on with the quickreply which causes random edits to the quote (as you can see above) and seems to prevent you deleting text you've just typed, but this might be my ancient tablet related rather than the forum itself.
