New Forum upgrade

I must be weird, I switched to yellow but switched back cause I like the grey better. It suits my mood maybe. :p One thing I noticed though is that all the text on the very bottom (with all the links privacy policy etc) doesn't show up well on the gradient grey background.

I did the same!

Must've become accustom to the grey?

FWIW, I get the following when I look at the Forum Rules:
Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: navbar in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4097

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/casinome/public_html/forums/forum_rules.php(43) : eval()'d code on line 1

Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class. Template name: forum_rules in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 4097

The Rules page appears immediately after, so the page comes up per normal only with the error stuff at the top of the page.
 
The rules have always been a separate php page that I designed myself back in the day, but since vBull has rewritten all of their code, I'll have to do it again. :rolleyes: I'll probably just incorporate this into the FAQ.
 
hello

Hey I don't know if this upgrade is over yet, but it does look good. I joined just yesterday and its good for me. I do not know how this forum looked earlier, but as of now, it seems cool.
 
I can't find the other thread on the upgrades...so I will ask here and hopefully that is ok. Will the threads that are read disappear and only the new ones not read show when you are done upgrading? Will all the threads read please disappear like it used to instead of 3 pages of threads that are showing that are just taking up space? That is one of the features I mis the most, the new threads only showing up. The way it is now, I have to go up and down the darn sheilds to see if I read what I wanted..just wondering/suggesting.

There are two links you can use. There is the "Today's Posts" link on the far left section of the Forum tab. This gives you all new posts read or not. What you are looking for is the "What's New?" tab (it's in the middle of the navigational toolbar between Member Blogs and Main Site). Click this and you will have a list of only unread posts. That should do it :D
 
My what's new tab gives me every post on the forum that I haven't read(including really really old ones) Is there a way to select 'mark all as read' or something similar to allow it to only show unread posts since my last logon?
Just want it to have a blank list so that I can start from scratch and read the ones that are new to me but don't pre-date my joining CM.

.....add.... Is it because I never log out? every time i click my bookmark I am already logged in? the home page with the box up the top updates correctly though and shows posts I've read and ones I haven't but when it is busy it has them all lit up and I have to use 'what's new' to check for others(which is when the problem occurs)

I like the new look a lot, but this is kinda weird... just in the last couple days, it seems like scrolling around the forum has suddenly gotten really slow, just when I'm looking at one thread and scrolling up and down the page in Firefox. It wasn't doing this right after the upgrade. If I sit and look at the site for too long, my fan goes on. I feel like there's some new Javascript loop happening that's eating up a lot of CPU cycles...?

edit: This is also showing up a lot in firebug:
Permission denied for <http://www.32red.com> to call method Location.toString
maybe their ad is trying to do something funny...

You're going to have to do this by hand in each forum. In each forum, you'll see "Forum Tools" - select "Mark Forum Read" and it'll mark all threads "read". It might take you a few minutes, but it can be done. :D

It's the tourney leader boards. As soon as I get the CMS up and running (next week), they will be moved to there. That should make the forum screamingly fast. :D
 
Why do you tortue an old soul??

Thanks for that!:thumbsup:

I went through and did it and it fixed the problem, However once I was finished I noticed this at the bottom of the forums....:eek2:

I have the same thing but only when using my netbook, so think it's to do with your resolution?
When I use my laptop or PC the wrapping disappears and the forum displays correctly. :)

Gremmy

no doubt.

I'm at 1024x768 on a 22" monitor but I could stretch the window and it would correct, however that is no longer the case.

I'm certain if I up the res it will be ok.
