safneo Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Love the new look! Couple of things so far,I am seeing lots and lots of space on pages in between posts. I can't see where to switch between forums and where are all the posting emoticoms? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snow Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Ppppht at least you got the board to work LOL I only got in by using Chrome laffin Seriously - Rick issues so far ... Forum is freezing IE I was using 7 Helly is using 8 I think and she still can't get in *snigger* *smirk* *snigger* Top bar as before blocks every menu in IE, it's not soooo bad in Chrome but top left drop down box for "my settings" stays dropped down and blocks far right menus/links. In Explorer that drop down is the full width of the screen blocking everything and will not "hide". Forum looks fab as a "guest" - not logged in but when clicking to log in I again got the lofi version - but was able to log in using it. In IE post boxes are HUGE massive amounts of extra space below each post - this is not an issue in Chrome. Will have a mooch about and see whatelse I can find.

safneo Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 (edited) Not sure the sign in page is as it should be. I had to scroll down to find the boxes. In firefox I have this list of forums ie The Refuge > General > Non Animal Chat etc In IE this isn't showing so I can't navigate the forum.

Fee Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Generally not too many issues viewing the board (I'm using Firefox). I love the general look of it. There seems to be a personal profile box in the top r/h corner which is permanently open and quite annoying, I don't know if it's supposed to be like that (would insert confused smiley here, but don't have any smileys) The 'View New Posts' option seems to have disappeared which is devastating as that's the only way I manage to keep up with what's going on..... or possibly it's hidden under annoying open profile box??

safneo Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I think everyone has the open profile box at the moment. Not sure why you dont have the navigation labels at the top of the page. I dont in IE but do in FF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the little red arrow in a box at the front of the thread title - only trouble is it hasn't carried over from what post had been read on the old board - took mew to p1 of RMF but once i went to last post since then its taken me to last unread post Cant view members profiles and if they have intrests written in their info page it makes it very long on the left under their avatar wendberts is an example (sorry wendy - just yours was the first i noticed after catching up on Sir H) Its the little red arrow in a box at the front of the thread title - only trouble is it hasn't carried over from what post had been read on the old board - took mew to p1 of RMF but once i went to last post since then its taken me to last unread post Cant view members profiles and if they have intrests written in their info page it makes it very long on the left under their avatar wendberts is an example (sorry wendy - just yours was the first i noticed after catching up on Sir H) Meant to also say Its FAB!!!!
