@Sitting-Duc, not sure if it's just my eyes but I find the red font in the TS panel hard on the eyes visually.  A little bit too bold for the solid grey background maybe. 

Thanks  

 

[Sitting-Duc]

@Merlin007 agreed, for now I have put the same font colours as the rest of the theme instead of the red. Depending what changes we make to the colours we may need to revisit it.

Yo man - thanks for all your hard work - while the rest of us are sending FU's your working on the site - FU anyway.  I like the overall colors but to my eyes the sight isn't bright enough - I would like to see more contrast between the writing and the background - just my 2 cents.

If I clicked on a forum thread, such as What Are You Listening To Today?, it won't take me to the last unread post.  It just goes to the beginning of the thread.  That was a very useful feature on long threads, plus there was a button inside each thread that would take you to the last unread post if just clicking on the thread didn't do it.  Can we have these features again, please?

Hey Duc,

It would be my suggestion at this point to either turn off, or perform a global update on all accounts to turn off email notifications for forum activity.  I'm getting nude pictures in my email via post activity in the Turn The Other Cheek forum.  This isn't really a problem for me personally, but I think it could be for others.  Just because they are following a forum doesn't mean they want to get email notifications every time someone posts there, and they never were before, so why now(?), if you see what I mean.

Check your notification settings dj. They may be different than before.  I have not received any post emails from that forum so may be a user setting.

It is not a single user setting.  ALL of the forums/topics I was following previously are now set to email me immediately upon new activity.  From what I can tell, I would have to manually update each of them individually.  Not a fun idea.

How does one "show all," to compress everything?

Appreciate everyone's hard work.  Ayaq

[Sitting-Duc]

@djMot It looks as though the notifications system may have changed a little during the upgrade. You can change the settings here: https://www.xtremeidiots.com/notifications/options/ to turn off the emailing. The three settings you will want are here:

@AyaqGuyaq You might be interested in the 'Activity' streams on the menu, they provide you a way of getting straight to the content without  going through the forums.

Looks good Duc...... But.... Is it possible to change the theme? This doesn`t do it for me. I need a white backgound! Like the elegant theme we had before.....

@JAYsus_NL same as before - on the bottom of the page you can click 'Theme' and then select Default and it goes to a nice shiny light one

In the profiles for people I see an awards box but see no way of awarding a medal to someone.

You should be able to do it this way.

Ah, okay.  Cool.  That looks to have sorted that out nicely.  Thanks!

[Sitting-Duc]

@JAYsus_NL Yes it's a bit of a stupid name for a theme

@2_MANY_BEERS At the top right of any page you should see  the '+ Create' button to the left of your profile name

@djMot Glad it's sorted for you

This is what I get when trying to award a cod5 medal.

Who were you trying to award it to?

[KingStinger!]

Ah he's a registered user so can't have medals. That's the same as the previous website.

1 Hey is it possible to show who is on line and not all the ones that were on.

2 Can we have the box back to show your friends online.

 3 What about the box that shows birthdays.

[cpl-chPetz]

I like The New Website.

Good Work
