Look of the forum

i use OCUK black from stlylish. so i have no idea what you are talking about op.

It doesn't work perfectly on a mobile device, the search box often had issues on Chrome on Android, plus zooming all the time isn't a good UX. I wish the interface would be easier to mod on the move too but simply having a mobile theme will make me much happier.

OK, I'll clarify and I'll add the fact that I'm not trying to be smug or playing the Apple/Android thing (you know me better than that) but it works perfectly on all iOS devices I've tried. I've not tried it on any other smartphones/tablets.

So for me, there's still no need for any changes.

(except perhaps the option in the control panel to set a default font )

I think we need a button for pointing out glaring spelling mistakes. Or you know, we could carry on doing that in the posts below it.

No. I changed the logo at the top once 3 years ago and I still have to live off my fake ID's after I went into witness protection.

We will find you!

And I wasn't even on here 3 years ago, but that doesn't mean I can't try to fit in by being resistant to change!

I've not had any issues with the forums on my Android system. It's a bit fiddly and because of that I don't mod from my phone but the same can be said for any app when you've got fat fingers..

There are some moderating features in phpBB that aren't in vBulletin which I'd like to see but conversely it's a better product than phpBB.

I'd like a youtube plugin which allows full screen!

No

 

[TwoSaints]

I went black and never went back.





On phone and PC.

How do you do it on your phone (assuming android)?

 

[chief barker]

It should be more like mumsnet.

 

[Lethagized]

What i would like the most on these forums is

1. A recently posted images section on the top right like AVS forums have.
2. Built in youtube tags
3. Smartphone friendly layout. Zooming in/out to press page 2, post reply etc is dreadful, and for a tech website to refuse an update to allow this simple feature is bizarre and just wrong IMO. It's like the owners actually want it's members to do more work to enjoy the forum.

I love the Blue simplicity of OCUK forums but do you think it would benefit with an upgrade?

Yes.

 

[easyrider]

Yes.

What like?

 

[Something Else]

I think personalisation for the user would be good.

You could select in the user CP what colour theme you want or something like that.

 

[ThundyCat]

Forums look great as they are. Yes the hamster is on his last legs...bet hey ho you never know what Santa may bring this Christmas.
