New Forum is Up! Still tweaking things though...

[joyfulgirl]

I'm overwhelmed.

Not complaining. Just ... wow.

 

[Sicy]

FYI for Premiums I believe the custom status is fixed now.

Go to User CP
on the left nav bar Edit Your Details.

....



what happened to my blue crack?!?!?!?!?

it seems slower, but, I hope this works out


MAYOR change... the first one I've seen since I started lurking around here in 02

 

[Spun2U]

thanks, how the hell am I gonna remember that code though!

Now that's funny

Click 'close window' on that screen and it will take you back to the post in the right spot in the thread.

Also if you use firefox, you can just right click on the post link and choose copy link location. Saves a few steps...

No, it just closes the window/tab, and if you have the thread still open it brings you there, at least with my tabbed browsing.

So if User A posts a link in thread A to a post in thread B, and then User B clicks the link, they get brought just to the post without the context of a thread they might not have seen yet, which is why I like the old way better.

At least I think that's how it works, lemme test it with an arbitrary link.

Does this mean you'll be checking up on who's current with their membership fees?

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

i don't know if this has been said, but i'm missing some posts. i should have (including this post) 29954 posts. but that's not a big deal, losing less than 100 posts doesn't matter. it's more of an fyi thing in case someone notices they lost way more

OOooooh Ok. So when you click that link you get brought to just the post. When you click "close this window" it goes away. If you click the upper right link to the thread, THEN it brings you to the post within the thread.

So if you wanna link to a post within a thread, you have to go through extra steps. I'm only "complaining" because all the other changes make my Interference use faster and better and this seems to go the other way. There are probably other issues to solve and things to add that are more important, but I still whine a lot.

I had no questions until I scrolled down to the bottom, and I see that I may not post new threads. I don't want to, but I'm just wondering why not?

Thanks!

Same here.

WEIRD, my count is right (well I guess I wouldn't notice 10-20 posts). Maybe it's something to do with being a mod?

 

[joyfulgirl]

People actually know how many posts they have and pay attention to that? Wow. I had no idea how many I had until this moment. I don't know what FOB means either. Friend of Bono?

 

[pepokiss]

so.. I got a reply mail... I opened a new window and all I get are those damn Red Xs

but on the original window, Interference looks great...

I believe only Admins can post threads in this forum.

 

[pepokiss]

was that for me?

If you are having login issues, I would suggest using the logout feature in the top right corner to force a logout which will clear your cookies from this site (see attachment). Then login in again but make sure to check the Remember Me box on the login!

If you still have problems it's probably because of cookies. If you know how you can go into your browsers options and delete all cookies from interference.com and that should do the trick. Don't forget to click the Remember Me box, you would be surprised how many people fail to check that.

Andy, fyi, I`ve had to log in a bunch of times, too. Every time I have, if I check the Remember Me box and then click, on the very next page that loads, I show up as not logged in again. If I don`t check Remember Me, I do end up logged in for a while, but eventually I'm logged out and have to log in again.


Okay, Biff`s avi isn`t showing either? If I recall correctly, she was using the old smaller size, too.

 

[~BrightestStar~]

It's a new feature built in for the special people.
Okay, I see on the Friends List that there's a link off to the side that says "break friendship."

Be good to me people, or I'll be forced to use this.

Also, I've just noticed some people's avatar's are missing. Biff and Doozer.....

Damn you VP, you've blinded me!
You're contagious!

 

[Sicy]

For those of you having trouble logging in try this.

Delete cookies and temp internet files. Then Log in here http://forum.interference.com/index.php
and check the remember me box
the delteing old history and cookies is really important....

 

[Bono Mot]

E-mail notification seems to be working now.

 

[Sicy]

Good.. slowly but surely we'll get all the bugs fixed!!

 

[kellyahern]

Did the news section get moved?

What does the * or the + by people's names who are currently browsing mean?

 

[Utoo]

Dude, I like this. But...not..enough...time...to....explore! Too....busy....playing....with....new....Wii!

 

[Sicy]

News section can be found from the main page now www.interference.com

The * is supposed to mean that user is invisible.. you can see them?

+ means that person is in your friends list.

2 more comments.

1) I really like the new format except for 2 things. I wish the time stamp of the post was still over the post content and not the user info. And I think the big white box and white background around the reply box is fugly, I like the old blue background with a grey box. Minor, but I really like everything else.

2) So some other people were appreciating the "New Post" button that can be found at the top of the thread: Usercp / blogs / faq / members list / calendar / new posts / quick links / log out

I'm non-premium, and I see Usercp / blogs / faq / members list / calendar / quick links / log out. KhanadaRhodes gave me a link directly to the new posts thing and it gave me the "permission denied" message like it does for premium features. Incidentally, I also get this message if I click on the member list.

I'm not sure if you guys realized this so I thought I'd post about it. It would be nice for everyone to be able to click a "new posts" link; that doesn't seem like it's out of line with other non-premium features (link to this post, go to unread post, etc...it's definitely not on the level of searching or pm's). Plus it's really weird that one premium feature (member list) shows up on my screen for me to be "permission denied" but another doesn't....

No, just by my name

iirc, * means they're invisible, and + means they're a mutual friend of yours

oh and btw, he's too lazy to post in here but dalton was having problems with his avatar as well. he went to the place in user cp to change his avatar, but he said there was no spot to have a custom avatar, just to select from the forum ones. are non-prems only allowed to choose these?

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

OH BTW!! one more thing...the clock is wrong. my computer says it's 7:03 pm, yet i just made that post above, and it says it's 6:43 pm.

 

[~BrightestStar~]

what the hey, now I can't see my own avatar.

It was fine an hour or so ago.



Sorry, I know y'all are still tweaking, I'm just concerned about the contagiousness of VPee's disease. What if whole people start disappearing?!

 

[Andy R]

To those of you all who were having login problems, I think I found the settings which could have been causing them. I have made some adjustments and I hope that should have fixed things. If possible, please report back and let us know if you are still having the same issues.
