Changes to the forums Mods please read

[Dave Blake]

Its 2012 and we are making changes. Post your concerns and any issues you see in this thread so we can address them.

The reason for the forums changes are, first we are trying to get all the Smartphone experts/ Mobile Nations sites to have the same look and feel to them. Second the company is adding the side sales banned to all the forums. You will need to log out to see this registered members wont see anything different.

I need you guys to log out and use the forums whenever you can look for any issues.

I received a PM from WeeBear this morning I will address his questions here.

Red "NEW" next to forums with new posts can we have that back? I will look in to getting that working once Cory has completed the forums rebuild.

Smaller font and different font, why? Check out the other Mobile Nations sites you will see a lot of similarities this includes the fonts. The size of the font will benefit us when we start to get more forums in place. Take a look around Android Central and see how many forums they have with so many devices and so many forums the smaller font makes the site seam more manageable.

Please post any questions or any issues you run in to in this thread.

Also WeeBear mentioned that he is not showing in the users on line list. It looks like I am missing as well so we need to add this to the list.

Cheers Dave, I've logged out a couple of times but it makes no difference to the users online for me. They remain stuck.

I understand the reason behind a smaller font, I can always use the 150% magnification for the first time ever in IE. LOL

(It's not nice being old)

Missing adds I am using IE9

I feel your pain WeeBear

Cory... The Home button and the WPCentral banner both bring you back to the forums main page. when you are on the forums. The home button should take you to the Blog page banner should take you to the Forums main page at least that is the way we had it set up before. I am okay with what ever you want it to do but having both do the same thing seams like a waist.

Here is the procedure you need to follow:

• testing bulleted lists

Update: margin fixed.

Can you have some of the following features added?

1 - Being able to edit a post and if you don't add a reason, it doesn't show an edit.

Edit: seems like the second feature I had already exists?
