Now when I click on the default "content I follow" and change the filters, I do not get an option to save it.

+Sauron Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 (edited) I like what I'm seeing so far. One small request, though. Is it possible to add some default space between the end of a post and the beginning of a user's signature? Even with the line separating the two, posts with signatures seem to be crammed together. EDIT: Just noticed that it seems to be that way mainly with posts that are more than just a couple of lines in length, if that's of any help.

+SenorRossie Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 1 hour ago, Albert said: I don't see a way to do it, either. The obvious means would be to click on the time of the last post, which works in other areas of the forum, but that just opens up the conversation without scrolling to a particular post. I looked through the HTML source and there are anchors for each message in the thread, so it'd be trivial to jump to the last post. I'll add this to my list of things to investigate (as I'm sure other admins have complained about it) and look for a fix. ..Al In the list view click on the 'conversation balloons' to go to your last unread post in a thread recent. If you read all posts, the balloons are not visible. Click on the date below the avatar of the user that posted last, you will go to that post.

I'm probably going to restrict the number of lines to some reasonable number. I'm not a big fan of signatures, as I don't feel it's necessary to see the same content at the bottom of a user's every post. Especially when that content ends up getting significantly long. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Jentzsch Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 (edited) Question: How can I navigate to my own blog? Can I filter for blogs I am following? All blogs now show some generic, large pictures. What are they useful for? Somehow I am missing navigation in the blogs. BTW: Links and formatting are broken in the blogs. Still converting?

Can I subscribe to blogs and list blogs I have subscribed too? All blogs now show some generic, large pictures. What are they useful for? Somehow I am missing navigation in the blogs. One way is to go to your profile and click on the "Blogs" tab, which will show you links to any of our blogs. Another is to go the Blogs, click the Filter button and then "My Blogs". There are probably other ways as well (such as by searching for them, although that probably won't work right now). Yes, you can manage all the content you follow here: https://atariage.com/forums/followed/ You can get to this link by clicking your username at the top of the page and then "Manage Followed Content". You can upload a photo for your blog to make your blog entries distinctive. Those graphics are really just placeholders (same with the header graphic in your profile). ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_me Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 My browser sees the page navigation bar as advertising and hides it. Don't know if there's anything atariage can do. I've notified the browser developer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjayBee Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 3 hours ago, Albert said: I prefer to have more whitespace than having posts crammed up against one another, but I will be revising the theme over time (more so short-term) to address issues that people bring up. First up: I like the new software and I am with you about the whitespace on a PC's browser with a big screen. But the responsive design on my smartphone uses a quite small font and narrow "column width" for the subjects of posts which makes it difficult to spot the subject. And also there is lots of whitespace which urges me to scroll a lot more than needed (or used to). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Random Terrain Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Speaking of blogs, will lists in blog entries be automatically updated to the new style or will each blog user need to do that by hand? Also, will [horizontal rule] be changed to a blank line in the forums, blogs and profile pages? Horizontal rule used to make a blank line, but now it makes a horizontal line, like the name says.

flashjazzcat Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Looks absolutely great. I'm sure many things will need tweaking along the way, but my first impressions are very positive. Looks far neater and more polished than the old forum IMHO. Great work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
