Bladewillisisdead Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Uhhhh this looks like absolute garbage on mobile. What the fuck? It's practically unuseable. AlexH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Is this topic also intended to bring light to any new bugs and problems, or should we use the support forum nobody ever reads? First one I noticed, the dropdown user account menu doesn't stay on page when you scroll down. The top bar moves down, but the menu seems to be attached to the actual page, not the bar.

deer Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Something feels really off about new posts being displayed. Someone posted in the Blink California thread and it didn't bump. The most recent poster icon on the side also doesn't seem to update right. Knowing what threads have/have not been read at a glance also seems near impossible. Not sure what the tell on that is, or if I just am not encountering it for some reason. This will take a while to get used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Yeah, the "jump to last unread" option for opening topics seems to be gone, which is quite terrible. You can only open on pages 1-4 and last page. Actually adding replies also seems buggy, for me it gets stuck on "saving" but never moves from there, yet when I open a new tab the post is there. zerohacker and ChasHawk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabwalker Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Are there any different themes? This looks like poopoo. Tommy and ChasHawk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deer Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Growing pains, I'm sure. The color palette is a little too bright for my taste but I'll get over it. I would like to see a little more color and a little less white. Just saw an updated post in the Sale subforum, it's not as unnoticeable as I originally commented but the bold is a little harder to see because of how bright the colors are.

Gumbo72203 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Good lord I fucking hate this new layout. Why isn't there anything called My Content? I just want my fucking threads I had following. ughhhhh this is so user-unfriendly! ChasHawk, RowBearToe and andy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 This whole update was so they could have ads on the mobile site. I'm sure of it. Edit: It's pretty cool how when I hit "submit reply" it says "saving" and then nothing happens. Sure my posts are going through but I'm getting no indication of that. I just have to refresh the page and hope my post shows up. andy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumbo72203 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Yeah this format is fucking awful, guys. Holy shit. I want the old layout back. That was so user-friendly. This is not. we lost all our shit! I had so many threads saved to reference... where do you find the list of threads you posted in now? This is retarded. andy., ChasHawk and RowBearToe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another option: If you click/touch the "last posted time" under the avatar takes you to the last post in the thread. Still, not as good as the previous "jump to last unread".

HectorSRCVINYL Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hi guys There is a feature called Activity streams where you can filter content. But because of the upgrade we had to re index all of the site content (2.5 million posts). It is a long process it might take a few days. Before it finishes you will notice the searches will give you no results and the activity streams will only show things from today and on. tape 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumbo72203 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 This sucks, because I'll probably stop coming here now. This is so annoying for me to use right now. The old format was so easy and simple. I also have to toggle back and forth between tabs here on Chrome because my posts never show up and update in the thread the way they used to.

Satan Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The ONLY plus side to this is the upvotes and downvotes. Other than that, nope. Hate it. tittus and Markwatson23 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I'd give it a few days, I'm sure most of the issues can be fixed. But please, for the love of vinyl, give us a darker theme. The two available now are burning my eyes. deer and kyacrash 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deer Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Just now, slinch said: I'd give it a few days, I'm sure most of the issues can be fixed. But please, for the love of vinyl, give us a darker theme. The two available now are burning my eyes. Agreed. There's always pains in switching like this. I'd expect the bugs to be ironed out gradually. I also echo the comments about the theme.

slinch Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 On the positive note, I do like the notifications. To get instant info on new posts and whenever you're quoted without having to refresh is pretty useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gumbo72203 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 So, I've been posting in the Post-rock thread in the Everything Else board, but whenever I go back to that board, it doesn't move that topic to the top. Nor does it show my username as the last post, even though when you go into the thread, it shows my posts. When I make posts, the site does not update before me. I have to go to it in a different tab or go somewhere else in this tab and then come back, and then it will show. I followed that thread, but in My Activity Streams, it does not show up, but it does when I go into my Managed Content or whatever that nonsense is under my username. Please, for fucks's sake, go back to the old layout. Eliminator Jr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
