A log of my posts across the forums.

Hey everyone!

I just pushed an update to the forums.  This update is a big one, made up of a lot of small changes and tweaks.  The most significant change is that we now show which site posts, PM's, and karma are coming from.  This is to help avoid confusion and to spread the word of the other forums and sites.  Please take a look at the change log below for more info:

Change Log:

  1. In posts, we now show which site the posts and each reply came from.
  2. In each user's karma page there is now an icon to show which site the karma came from.
  3. In your Private Messages page, we show which site the PM was sent from.
  4. In the My Replies page (or any user's replies page, see #6 below), you can change a dropdown to show the replies from all sites.
  5. In a user's a profile, the Karma, Posts, and Replies numbers can be clicked for more information.
  6. You can now view the replies for all users by clicking on the Replies # in a user's profile.
  7. The "Reason for Editing" box for editing posts has been removed.
  8. iPad/iPhone/iPods can now send PM's.
  9. In posts, we now hide the buttons (Quote, Edit, etc.) for each reply until you mouseover the reply.  This is to help keep the forums cleaner and to reduce confusion as to which set of buttons belongs to which reply.  The original posts' buttons appear by default.
  10. The "Last Reply Info" column in forums, my posts, my replies, and recent posts has been updated visually.
  11. In each forum, you can now see the number of views each post has.
  12. My Posts page (and any user's posts page) is now paginated, so you can more than 1 page of posts.
  13. Lots of changes to the styles and icons to make them more consistent.
  14. Lots of bug fixes.
  15. Better error messages.

Please let me know if you find any issues with the above or in general.

interesting, thanks (I think) not sure why which forum something came from makes a difference but like I said, interesting and somewhat entertaining.

must be kind of fun creating and making something work, good job.

*edit*: notice that the arrow on the main forum page that indicates that it takes one to the last read reply seems to only take you to the last page and not the reply???

Okay, I logout of WinCustomize, closed the browser (IE 8) and ran CCleaner and now the logon problems are gone.

Great work guys!!!

Having to refresh the page at least once to get the dynamic content to appear (Quote, Reply, Report, Karma buttons).  Also having to refresh the MyReplies list at least once to get the 'go to last read item' arrows to appear.

Should have mentioned:  XP using FF3.6.10

Two issues I have:

1) The replies and views statements (or what do you call it) for every post make the forums seem a bit cluttered. I'd suggest replacing them with (numberofreplies)/(numberofviews). It already says that at the top of the colum.

2) A small one, but the 'go to last reply buttons' aren't lined out, in IE8 at least.

2 small things, first there's this.

 

 

Then there is this. In a thread, put your cursor in the center of the page, horizontally. Then scroll with the mouse wheel. It sticks, hangs, slows when the buttons pop up. Over to the right or left, in the blue section, scrolling is smooth and fast.

 

Just an observation....

Jim... for me that only happens with Articles>This Week In Skinning... both the same topic, both Spencer's Posts. Which of his devices is he posting with?

I don't believe this is a browser issue (our browser) unless it's his? Is he posting these with his iPad?

I swear to god, that I was able to log in earlier today with the wrong password.  I typed a work password, and it let me in.  I should se if I can log in as Frogboy...

Damn, didn't work, I was going to use it to make a post saying how he thought I was the bestest poster ever.

Yup, same here, Doc. Must be Spencer.

Any chance of fixing the insert link function so it's not backwards?

Nope, no button...

Well I don't know what you guys did...but I'm being logged out on the forums and logged in on the main page. I can't see any of the normal options like "quote" "edit" or any of the other options that usually appear below each comment. Basically all I see are peoples replies and everything else is screwed up. When I come to the forums sometimes can't even reply because I can't login. When I try I keep getting this "login.axd/ad/search" page. And no...it's not my browser...I don't have any of these problems anywhere else and never did...it's only on this site where all these problems happen. Honestly...I've never had to have 2 or more browsers to use a website anywhere else except for here. I really don't understand why this only happens on this site. It's pretty obvious it's the way someone there is coding this thing since like i said it only happens here.

could be that the page focus is in the posting area and it's attempting to scroll the post. once the focus is back on the page the scroll function works appropriately. but, probably not?

@WG:

Giz... it's Ghostley. Not letting you do anything. Uninstall it from your browser and watch what happens.

Actually? Why shouldn't you be able to use ff plus your add ons? Why should you have to turn cartwheels just to visit here... what's next? Hide the website? Mouse over the Internet and maybe Wincustomize will appear.

Edit:

Even though I took off Ghostery and Adblocker as well as Noscripts now this screwy site still won't let me logon with ff (onto forums) I log onto the home page just fine.

Maybe if I adjust the contrast and hue, and brightness as well as changing the blind and wall, and promise not to say anything bad about DX and if it's a blue moon over Equador and I promise not to tell the truth about Sarah Palin, the site'll let me logon.

Actually?

Maybe no more subscriptions until SD hires someone to fix this nonsense.
