Feedback Welcome Back! Post your issues and errors here please.

With any move of this nature there will be issues and errors where the two pieces of software do not intersect well.

Post here if you notice anything odd or are homesick for some of our old features.

I will post updates in ONE thread so they do not get lost. Check what we're working on, your question may have already been answered:

In before: OMG this theme is bland.

Don't worry. We'll have it looking like a lime-green Holden ute before you know it...

Forum jump?

 

[Caesar]

Forum jump is now a little icon in the bottom RH corner. Click on it and it brings up the drop menu.

First impressions:

It's all pretty confusing-looking for now. The old look was a lot cleaner. But might just be a "gotta get used to it" thing.

Don't really like the fact that extra pages aren't displayed on a thread unless the mouse is hovering over it.

Quick navigation takes a while to load. Once it loads it's pretty dandy, but the drop-down box was a lot quicker.

EDIT: I miss the colour coding of "News" "Injury" that sorta thing. There's also a lot of small fonts that are hard to read. I'm not sure I'm a fan of this font in general.

Will post positives as well! (when I find them )

EDIT 2: Okay, I officially hate the fact that a poster's avatar displays next to a thread they've created. I don't need to see their avatar.. that's probably my most hated change at the moment.

Ads are everywhere. Hope this will change.

Despite already doing it 5 times I'm still being told the website wants to install the Adobe Flash Player add-on.

It's like the Queen rolled out for the Diamond Jubilee with a mohawk.

I'm scared, someone hold me!

People with smaller avatars now look really blurry. But besides that, I can't see too many. Will just take some getting used to.

What's the equivalent of the User Control Panel? I use that the most.

Any tips on how to go to the "first unread" message in a thread?

 

[vonn]

not a fan. how do you differentiate gold, vets etc. & i paid for membership to remove these stupid ads.

 

[joshhem]

never mind, found it...

 

[richolovesgoal]

It no longer shows the AFL team, and other sporting clubs supported, by the poster. I go for Richmond and in a discussion I'd like to know whether the people involved go for Richmond or another club, etc. If that makes sense.

 

[Caesar]

Couple of quick items, you probably know about them already:

- Edit time limit is zero (i.e. editing posts is disabled)
- I can't see the mod forum, or any of the other private forums I'm supposed to have access to
- My global mod tools don't work (currently I can only mod in the forums I'm assigned to0)

Any tips on how to go to the "first unread" message in a thread?

There is a blue dot that you can click that should take you to the first unread post.

 

[Lensen]

The mouseover to read the first couple of lines of an OP in a thread appears to be gone?

 

[Mr Eagle]

Is there any way to take more advantage of a larger screen? I've got so much screen real estate to give yet all the forum listings seem to have to stay so teeny weeny....

The bullet to the left of the thread title.

 

[grimlock]

Don't like:

it only shows how many pages a thread has when you hover over the title

 

[Caesar]

Relax. It'll be fixed.

 

[Bluish]

Posts per page is at 20 for me, is there a way back to the old 30?

Watched Threads:

User CP was useful for listing the subset of the forums I was interested in, not just my watched threads (which was available in VB too).

E.g. I want a quick link to the Media & Entertainment subforum, without User CP I would have to browse a few pages down from the top level forum page.

And it makes it even weirder when your own av appears beside it to show that you've posted in that thread. Really draws your eye away from the thread titles and categories.

Could posts take up more space? BF is now a scroll-a-thon.
