Forum Upgrade

[Kilroy]

Hey Kiwi. We are not using any red text. What specifically are you having trouble reading?

[Kiwi]

Well, there you go. Read, somewhere along the line, where someone made a comment about "red" text. Since I don't see the difference between red and black on computer screens I don't know what or where the person was referring to. Thought it may have referred to messages or text where important info was "highlighted" in red, which of course I would not pick up as different, and may miss the emphasis on a particular comment. Guess it's not an issue if it is not used, sorry for the false start.

Ah, yes at one time early in the process the PM notifications link was red text, even if you didn't have an unread pm. Now there is a redish background highlighting the link only when you have an unread pm. There is also the PM pop up so the marker is redundant for the most part anyway. That's the only red highlight I can think of. Red to me is a NO or warning / alarm colour so I don't usually use it much.

We used to get a warning but not anymore I guess.

Just wondering if the iTrader is back up yet? I'm unable to find it.

[Kilroy]

No, sorry iTrader won't be returning. Deals are almost all local so it's not really needed.

Hey Kilroy, Great job with the upgrade, I can completely understand the hard and long hours you've put in to get this site upgraded.

One quick thing I have noticed, that I'm sure is an easy fix. Before the upgrade, I could click on "New Posts" and it would show me a list of all unread posts however, there would also be a breaking point (a line) that showed where the unread posts ended since the last time I visited. Is this something that is still an option? Right now I'm going by post date on the side, but it was much easier before when it marked it.

Thanks again!

Kilroy - love the new look and feel too and can't tell you how much I appreciate having a site like this available and the effort of all the moderators to ensure that it continues to operate within the context that it was conceived.

I would like to echo jterpstr's comments above though. If at all possible, I'd really like to see the new vs. unread post delineation back. Again....if at all possible.

In or out, still a great job and very, very much appreciated!

It was removed by the devlelopers, but there has been a lot of complaints over on their forum. It should be returning in a patch coming soon. Nothing I can do at this time.

No more blog? Where will I rant about the few highs and many lows of my golf game now? And No, I'm not opening up a twitter account.

[Kilroy]

Blogs were becomming a spam magnet and were otherwise largely unused. Sorry you had to be a casualty there fella.

Another issue I'm having is with the search function. In the old version, when I search for something the results would be listed by most recent to the oldest. Now I get results that are not ordered by date. Any way of making most recent searches come first?

Nevermind. Option at the bottom!

[Kilroy]

They are sorted by relevance. Most relevant result first.

You can refine searches by using the Advanced Search link below the search input box.
