New Forum upgrade

[chayton]

I think it's coming along very well! I have one request if I may be so bold....on the tabs, would it be possible to switch the Forms and Member Blogs around? Or maybe change the title of "Forms"? I always click it by mistake thinking it's FORUM, with the two so close together and my peripheral vision being what it is.

I'm having the same problem. I just can't think of another term to use besides "Form".

And the correct plural form for "Forums" is "Fora", but then no one would click that

I would click it thinking it meant 'girls' hehe . 'forms' should be the last subject with 'contact us' etc. no? I am very comfortable navigating around now more than before. Your colors are considered traditional by some I think and there's a lot to be said about tradition. It's looking good.

i-Gaming reps page is back up
https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/members/?key=staff_members

That took about a week to get functioning properly

It has it's own "tab" in the navigational tool bar up top.

 

[chayton]

Much better!!!

May have been mentioned, but when I edit a post I keep getting IE8 saying "This tab has been recovered" and reloading (the edit does take though). On one occasion it was "unable to return you to Casinomeister".

Well that's strange. Didn't notice since I'm using Firefox at the moment.

Probably a bug. I'll try to squish it later next week

 

[Casinomeister]

By the way - the "Way to Go" button is a known issue. I hope to get that going sometime next week. Sorry

That should be the "What's New?" tab on the menu bar. Those are your new posts.

 

[Elgoog]

Thanks!
I owe you a beer!

(would have been a nice tric to have everyone visit the forum every single day, lol)

 

[Stovetopp]

I just clicked "forms" to see what it was and got the same SCREEN as when I clicked on FORUM
What was I supposed to get..... or forms was for us who think forum and form is the samer thing

Hmmm, should have posted this here and not the other thread...

My toolbar is ok, strange..
But I see from your screenshot that your Slotmeister leaderboard from 32RED shows the correct list.
My leaderboard still shows an old outdated list from months ago.
Its been like that ever since the upgrade.

 

[De Beuker]

This is how my toolbar looks like.
Only the searchbar seems to cover.. something.

The leaderboard shows people with only a few hundred spins.

 

[RedAndi]

Mine too

Just noticed my searchbar also covers something.
My 32Red scroll seems OK, spins in the 5 digits.

 

[ksech]

I think the search box is covering Main site? And depending on which way I cross my eyes... CM casinos is covering Today's posts/ CM News is covering Private messages/ and Newsletter is covering ??? and calendar. The Forms Tab takes you to a forums' home screen with a link to PAB near the bottom.

The blue/grey is still too pale IMO...When I load the page for new posts, it looks like one big sea of pale blue including the ehaders etc.......there is no definition between the postings...I also truly do not like the fact that before, if you clicked on new posts...only the posts you did not read comes up whereas now, you click that and every post is listed...

The only way I realized I was re reading some of the posts was when I glanced at the sheild and tried to differentiate why some had fire coming out of them and others didn't...definitely dislike that setup...even the shields are like melting into the faded sea blue colors...if i want just the posts unread, I really do not want to dig through those I have....I know, just look to the side and check the shield...but if the shield looks like everything else on the page....whatever....

Silc,

I think I read that Bryan was going to have the options to change to "Casinomeister Classic" mode, he just hasnt gotten to it yet? I really liked the old page type for reading too. And I am, as you and others are seeing, we have to learn what everything means all over again.

Progress always makes me cranky!

 

[Casinomeister]

WTG (Way to Go) button has been recreated. Unfortunately, we have to start from scratch with this one since the original code could not be merged with the new plugin - thus all old WTGs are in cyberspace

But it works now in screenshot forums etc.

By the way, the WTG button is a way to show your "thanks" to posts that are just cool. There are no rep points involved.

These are displayed in the User Profile member pages.

Hey Bryan, I was just snooping around (looking in the cupboards etc) and under the "Quick Links" tab there's an item called "View Site Leaders" and I wondered what it was and clicked on it and it's really ugly. Not only that, it kinda looks like the same info that's under the i-Gaming Reps tab....

Just FYI

 

[Casinomeister]

Yeah, that's something that needs to be fixed. The i-Gaming Reps is a "plug-in"; it's a separate module that needs to be installed and modified to your liking. The "Forum Leaders" comes with the vBulletin package and is useless at the moment.

Keep snooping around, let me know what else you find

Will Chayton be getting "Quality Controller" Salary?
And are any other postions open?

 

[ksech]

My "What's new" tab and my "Today's posts" (overlaidby CM casinos) do the same things And as chayton pointed out the view leaders (under the quick links) goes to a list of Reps which is very difficult to read...
