@rooks I see the problem now.. Trying to fix it now, thanks.

@rooks

Ummm I do not see a problem. Can you elaborate more or give me a screenshot.?

@rooks

Im testing this right now

Hey everyone

I just noticed that issue, thanks for letting us know. This was a change implemented by the forum software getting updated, not something we decided.

There was no setting to actually allow you to read locked threads but I made the blank box on top of those threads go away.

That must be something that changed with the new forum software version. I dont think it's worth changing that.

You can hit refresh or, If you are reading a thread and someone adds a reply to it you will get notified by a popup anyway.

@HectorSRCVINYL we can't insert emojis anymore via iPhone? What gives?

The text editor has Emoticons

No. That's what I have on my home PC...which is not really mine anyways. Oh well.

 

I will bring my windows laptop to work maybe I can fix the IE10 bug on Monday. But Safari for Windows is just dead, not worth it.

Don't worry about it, Hector. My computer @ home is a POS anyways. Ha!

Hahaha OK but you were using those web browsers just for testing right?

On Safari on desktop:

 

And on IE10, the topic titles are running outside of the box on the right:

 

Additionally...when you click on "last unread post", it does not take you to that last unread post...takes you to at least 10 posts prior already read.

 

Hi i will investigate on the Unread posts issue.

About Safari, I can tell you are running Safari for Windows. Apple discontinued that in 2012. Do you actually use it or you are just testing?.

I will see If I can do something about the IE10 issue. But thats another web browser from 2012, I dont know if I will be able to spend much time fixing bug for old web browsers.

Awesome. Thank you! This is a lot easier on the eyes for me as well.

 

As shown above this is still a little harder for me personally. If the text size was a bit bigger or thicker it would be a lot better.

 

Thanks a ton Hector for being so responsive with the changes and feedback.

Is that screenshot supposed to be the new color scheme? It looks like regular blue

The light blues and greens on white are really hard to see. 

 

A perfect example is the "Report Post" link on someone's comment... to me I can BARELY see it.When I put my mouse on their comment, it does darkens it, and I can see it better.

 

On the message board, the links to the pages are whats really hard to see... If it's bolded it's "ok-ish" but when it's the thinner font, it just really blends in with the page.

 

I'd recommend doing deeper colors, such as a red or a navy blue... something that will pop more!

Check out the new VC Blue [Colorblind] theme

How are you guys seeing who upvotes/downvotes? I just get a notification telling me "someone" upvoted/downvoted

We changed the setting like an hour ago you should see their names now.

Whatever you choose... there needs to be CONTRAST. My colorblindness makes reading the new site quite the task. I seriously have to put my face up against the screen and squint to figure out which topics to click

Hello

Can you elaborate bit more?. What things do not have enough contrast ? Do they look the same colour because there isn't enough contrast? 
 

Thank you

I dunno if being able to see who gives upvotes and downvotes in the http://boards.vinylcollective.com/discover feed is intended, but it's happening for me. Just thought I'd point it out.

Yeah upvotes and downvotes are public. Were they not public before the update?

Alright We got the emails now sending from our email provider instead of our server.

Emails should be more deliverable and more reliable now!!

I will be working on VC for a few months  I'm excited to rebuild the Collection System!

I would like to receive an e-mail each time someone new replies to a topic I am following, here are my settings:

 

After the launch we had issues with our email provider and until they get fixed we are using our own server to send emails, which is not a good idea for this large volume. When I do a test email from admin I do get it and I also just got an email about you replying to me now. So I guess emails work but some emails do not send somehow.

I will ask our server person about this. But just to be safe are you checking your spam folder?

Just now, Tommy said:

Email notifications for 'threads i'm following' is still down right?

Can you check your notification settings to see if you're supposed to get those emails?

Posting to update -- still getting the issue where browser doesn't load mobile version on iPhone on both safari and chrome. Happens when a window is closed and reopens, honestly it seems kind of random: sometimes it will load the full version instead of mobile, when it does it's hard to get the mobile to reload. have to either closer the window, or the app, clear cache and history, disconnect from wifi, etc. in order to do it. Becoming extremely frustrating. 

 

Not asking for an entire redesign, but can you guys PLEASE add a mobile version button at the bottom like the old boards had? 

Unfortunately thats now how it works, The same skins that you use for desktop will transform to mobile they aren't 2 separate skins. 
But its weird that I wouldnt transform in your case. I will investigate this further.

In regards to our feedback: that's what most important to me on here as a seller / buyer  / trader. It shows me who is trustworthy, who is not, and who is on here to shitpost, or on here to sell. Are we going to be able to see user feedback, and are we going to be able to see it on a post like we used to? We replaced feedback with rep., but why not have both?

Done!

I'll look into that. Thanks for the idea.

Hector, is there any way to resolve the issue with some accounts being blocked/deleted? Some regulars are affected and it would be great if there was some way to make them gets their accounts back.

Besides that, all major bugs seem to be resolved and some new features are pretty amazing. So thank you for all your effort and keeping up with our whining and bitching, haha.

Hi
I wasnt aware of that. Just tell them to email me at [email protected]. Using the email of the account they are trying to get back.
I will investigate this further tomorrow when I'm back at work.

Thank you.

I think we should make a BLACK theme with blood letters. a guy sacrificing a goat as a background 

As promised we launched 2 new dark themes Dark Blue and Dark Green.

Let me know what you guys think.

When you quoted my post last time I thought that meant you fixed it, so I checked and it was there on the desktop version. I swear it wasn't there earlier today even, but maybe I missed it somehow. Anyway, it's good now. Thanks for all your work getting our concerns addressed!

The dot doesn't show when you aren't logged in or there is nothing that you have read and got updated. Maybe thats what happened.
