New Setup Discussion thread

[Brassneck]

Goto the conversation list : http://www.acorndomains.co.uk/conversations/

Tick the tick box next to one of the conversations, a popup will show. To the right of that popup there is "select all" which will then select all of those messages on that page, you can then goto page two, do the same again and once you've ticked all the pages you want press Leave conversation.

Thanks - yes did that now - didn't take as long as I thought it would.

I took a look at the settings before I replied, it was set it 20 conversations per page rather than 100 That might have taken a bit longer haha.

congrats on new layout

Thoughts on the colour strength of the sidebar recent posts/threads....I can go to the strongest shade of the current colour and its a better contrast? Bottom picture is 3 shades stronger, bit more obvious in real life than in the screengrab

 

[CLARELOU]

slightly darker shade works for me

Congrats on the changeover guys - I'm another one who doesn't like change - but think this has all gone very smooth and for the better.

One thing I wanted to mention is that when looking at a list of threads on my phone - you can't tell who's made the last post, just says 'go to last post'. On PC it's different but I usually use the forum on phone. Always found it quite useful before as you can usually tell whether it's something worth reading just from that.

Love the new design. Looks clean.

Personally never look at the right hand column, wish there was an option to remove

Also mentioned before but don't like going straight to the 'new' post when you click a thread, assuming the entire thread has been read and fresh in your mind even if you've marked as read, prefer it to start at the beginning.

Still can't use 'home' to get back to the top after adding a comment either, in case that one has been missed.

I do like the 'optimistic' feedback button. Can see that being used a lot on sales threads...

 

[martin-s]

The lack of negative feedback option is a shame though

 

[Admin]

I've strengthened the colour of the sidebar font for 'recent posts / threads'

Maybe good to try something different as the default avatar too?

Maybe upload your own one?

Make an image of Gary Glitter default and then everyone will change it

I've had a report from an Acorn 'upgrader' that the Paypal checkout page was displaying in Spanish, we have added some locale code to set this to English and would appreciate one or two of you testing for us please, if you don't mind. Obviously, you don't need to complete the payment. http://www.acorndomains.co.uk/account/upgrades

On Tapatalk, there is still a message to say the forum is under maintenance.

Hi, We've looked into this and cannot replicate it, so perhaps its a cache issue with the tapatalk app on your device. You can try this: uninstall the app, Turn OFF your device, Turn On, reinstall the app and login.

Upload a file ( next to post reply button ) - select image - insert into post.

Site logo, avatars and text editor icons are grainy on retina devices. Need to double up the resolution to make them crisp. Not a major thing granted, but it is a little off-putting.
