rebuilt forums

[Sinque]

I think we should give this at least a week before hammering the layout, people don't like change. After that you can slate it to Mordor and back.

The change wasn't deliberate, why are people complimenting the change as if the guys worked hard at making the new amazing layout. The "changes" are blatantly poxy.

They're not. If anything they're complimenting fixing the little issues which will improve it. Which don't have to be done.

Yep, same here. And this:

That's because the custom style sheet sets all the text to white. Nothing to do with the forum update. If you hover over the menu items you can read them.

Nice to see the search and forums running better, btw.

To fix some of the formatting on the forum listings page (forum home page):-

VB Options -> Forum Listings Display Options -> Show Moderator Column -> No

To show the list of moderators under each forum description:-

1. Add a new custom phrase called forum_led_by_x with the following properties:-

2. In forumhome_forumbit_level1_post and forumhome_forumbit_level2_post find:-

<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>

Change (in both templates) to:

<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]<br />(<phrase 1="$forum[moderators]">$vbphrase[forum_led_by_x]</phrase>)</div></if>

I just want to test out this thang!

You can still create new threads, reply to threads, quote and now search.

It works still, result.

You don't look at the mantlepiece when your poking the fire.

That will be a simple tweak, i'm sure it'll be back soon.

 

[Tute]

Front page of the forums looks perfect now.

 

[riddler]

aye looking good!

I only just noticed that for some odd reason, the "path" to where you currently are navigated to is weird.

For example:

Overclockers UK Forums > Life > General Discussion > rebuilt forums

Why is "Overclockers UK Forums" no longer in bold... looks odd.

Great job on getting rid of bold thread titles though

 

[bigmouse64]

I think it's a step forward, looks a lot fresher!

I agree, looked far better when they were all in bold .

Apart from that and the fact that usernames are no longer in bold, looks good .

I like the new look, job well done guys.

yeh, but if you look directly into the fire you might get a burning ember in your eye

I'd imagine its because the bold attribute was removed from nearly everything in the style in the frustration to find the attribute that related to the forum listing.

Or a rogue hair.

 

[Things change I've changed]

I'm getting used to it now, the new look that is, was'nt keen on it at first but now if it changed back I'd properbly grumble at that lol, I guess it's like what most people say, it's just hard at first sometimes to accept change, we are all creatures of habit I suppose.
