As you may or may not noticed.. a site upgrade has been carried out


Many new features on board.. some still to be added


However please bear with us whilst normal service is resumed and some previous functionalities are restored

Since the layout change the text size has gone smaller because it is screen wide. For mobile reading it is cumbersome to zoom in and scroll about across and down. Please add a choice to increase font size?

Fixed..

Site now uses a default responsive theme. I have reduced the min width to 360px

On my phone the site isn't showing the last posted bit on the right hand side of the forum table (forum section view), is there anyway for me to revert that?
 
The Members Area has nothing in it for me on Tapatalk. Looks much nicer in a browser on phone though.
 
Yeah, was just about to say that the football forum (when accessed through the 'browse' section), is empty on tapatalk for me.

Haven't tried clearing my cache though actually. I'll try now.
 
I can see the Footy Forum. I just can't reply or anything else in there. Will give clearing cache a go.

Uses responsive theme by default on mobile devices.. we are now mobile freindly..

Scroll down you will see the sidebar..
 
Countless new features.. too many to list..

You will come across them as you browse the site.

I particularly like the post history for edited posts.. you can even revert previous version of your own posts.. as well as view edited history.. So much so I may remove the time limit for editing posts..

Us mods though like the new admin tools..


some will prove very very useful...
 
other useful new feature..

You can now log in & register to the site with Google, twitter & facebook..
 
More Stuff I have come across..

  • Responsive design, mobile friendly site

  • Watch Forums aswell as Threads

  • Can now use tables in reply posts

  • Enhanced Search Features

  • 104 different media sources can now be displayed on the site..

  • (for mods) ban users from threads, will be used as a first warning to users when things get out of control..

  • (for mods) better moderation tools for batch processes

  • Add tags to threads..useful for finding relevant topics.. and good ol google spiders..

  • Enhanced member section, easier to contact fellow users within the site..

  • Enhanced quote function.. Highlight text from any post.. then click reply
  • Multi Quote feature, enables you to quote in bulk from multiple posts


these are to name but a few....

The banning a user or users from specific threads is one thing I can see us mods using more than other tools at our disposal.

If there's an argument or spat going on between two posters it usually becomes an issue as it takes other threads over. This is a way we can easily stop that.

If you are banned from a thread it should be obvious why. Wherever time constraints make it possible we will tell you why.

This bit is important. If you disagree with it, pm the mod or mods involved. Do NOT start a new thread or go unto another thread to continue it. That will merely exercabate the issue.

If you're banned from a thread it is the most obvious first warning you're ever gonna get to look at what you're doing & stop it effecting other people on the forum.

Hopefully this tool will make our job a little easier at times & stop us having to do a very short ban to give someone a genuine sense of how much they're ruining things for other people.

If someone is banned from a thread then I would ask others not to then start talking about that person or taking the piss when they don't have a right to reply. Doing so will just lead to you being banned because you'll also be ruining the thread by doing so.

Agree 100%.. I think it maybe time to update the FAQ/ Forum Posting Principles
 
The New theme on my phone is shit . it's like condensed the forum page a d pushed a load of shit to the bottom of the page ..

Can I change it back ?

Responsive theme.. It's designed to work that way for portable devices

Clear your cache from your browser and make sure text size is 100%

Tbh.. I prefer it..

If I can create a non responsive version, I will...

User will then be able to select their preference..
 
Seriously, the bottom of the page looks like an IT uni students wet dream!

That's not a moan by the way, good work Ninja!
 
Dafuq is Stumbleupon?

Stumble upon is quite cool..

People submit sites, Pages of interest, when you sign up you state interests that are relevant to you.. You click stumble and something random comes your way.. The more people submit, the higher the page is ranked..

Great tool to find the bizarre and completely bizarre on the interweb

I might just change the users who have read the thread so us Mods can see.. It is a bit overkill.. but useful at the same time..

Leave who is viewing the thread bit so all can see..
