Site Software Update

[Demonland 74,327]

We just did a major update to the site software. Some of the formatting and colours are out of whack and I will attempt to fix all of this in the next day or so. Please bare with me whilst I iron out all the kinks.

I still have some tweaking to do but this should fix the issue you were having.

FYI those pics / letters (?are these called avatars) obscure the first bits of text on my iPad with IOS 13.

Refresh the page. Has it been fixed?

Refreshing fixed the issue for me (viewing on iphone).

Thanks demonland, I like that when I open a topic it takes me too last page.

Easy too see as well.

I have some fixes still to do with the look and feel because I had to default back to the default "skin" of the forum. The software update didn't play well with the various tweaks I've done to the look of the site over the last few years.

Love that I'm not accidentally clicking on the podcast as I'm scrolling down now :). Appreciate the work you put in mate

It also takes me to the last unread thread, thank you.

Though I cannot 'edit' the page I wrote on.

Click the three horizontal dots to the right of your username on the post you want to edit. The option to edit drops down.

A very brutal screen with far too much dominance of the various updates on the right of the screen which IIRC were at the bottom of the page.

Good luck but sorry don't like it.

Thanks for your efforts to improve the site. I'm sure it will prove to be better for us if we just take the time to get used to it. Merci!

I'm still working on it but I don't understand what you're referring to. Are you able to send a screenshot? Are you on mobile or desktop?

Thanks again for all the work you out into the site, much appreciated ?

is it possible to have a more prominent separator between the pinned and non-pinned threads? Just makes it easier to quickly navigate to the first un-pinned article.

Working a treat so far Andy.  Noice work.  Any chance you can add a delete option for the weird double postings that occur for some reason or errors as per previous version a few years back?

Can you point me to an example of the double post error?

Issue now resolved DL

Site looks back to normal for me, Andy.  Checked my mobile and things seem to be running smoothly there as well. ?

I’ve tried to get the site to look visually the same in terms of colours. I had to revert back to the default skin. There are many little tweaks, not necessarily colour related that are gone and I’m in the process of remembering and finding some things. There I things I know how to change but just need to find the relevant code and where it might now reside within the software. 

i think there are some new functionality within the software I need to activate. Will get to that soon.

I really like the new look on the iPhone - much cleaner.

Thanks for all the work you do @Demonland to keep the site up and running, as well as running the podcast. I’m not sure of the costs involved in doing all this, but is there a Donate button, so that those that wish to can chuck in a dollar or two from time to time?
