A significant upgrade
- brand new theme
- openID login is fixed
- many performance upgrades
- about 960 bugfixes from the previous version
As usual, please report any problems here, but before you do empty your browser cache or do a forced refresh to pull in the new files from the server (CTRL + F5).
-
Ooops, mid-air collision there!
Browser cache emptied, but still no smilies.
-
Please empty your cache / CTRL+F5 and try again. I've emptied the theme cache at this end...
-
It's very posh...
-
I see that just like real life the technical section has been banished to the basement (right at the bottom), lol :)
Smileys now working :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
-
Emptied cache again but no joy, restarting FF sorted it :thumbsup:
-
Very swish

"Don't like it"
When i view on my phone the site reformats to the width of the screen. This blows a bit cos instead of being able to scroll round you just end up with a tiny vertical column of posted text at the right of the screen once all avatars and borders etc have been accounted for. Obviously its worst when holding the phone vertically.
I pray this is fixable in config.
-
+ works well on phone (BB)
+ indexing
- page space per post too great (function of avatar/sig formatting?)
-
On some of the posts the signature is displayed to the right and down a bit of the original message. Just me?

Hmmm yes, they do seem to have changed the way the screen size is detected. I'll ask over at the SMF forums.
If you just want to read the forums on your phone, without all the bandwidth hungry stuff, then the best way is to use:
http://ukbouldering.com/board?imode (http://ukbouldering.com/board?imode)
Obviously this isn't much good if you want to look at photos and stuff.

Can't see that here.
Which platform & browser are you using?

We've had this before and I can't remember what the fix for it was - I'll have to have a dig, I know it was something very simple.

Can you give me a screen grab with an arrow pointing at the problem you mean - I think I was thinking of something else.

Working great for me! Firefox on W7...
Emoticons disappeared though..
-
On Safari all is So Goody.
The wad/punter point history seems to have disappeared though.

Clear your cache and then do a CTRL+F5

Where from? The "karma stats" link is still on the front page. Do you mean somewhere else?
-
Bingo :thumbsup:

The link is there but when you click on it there are no entries...
-
Ah, lucky I backed up the database then!
Sorted :)

same for me Chrome on XP at work.....
gutted

The above problem should now be fixed in Chrome - again, do a CTRL+F5 to do a force refresh.

Exceptionally minor but in the new quote boxes there only appears to be an opening double quote and no closing.
Possibly a missing image file for the closing quotes?
Doesn't detract from browsing/reading though.
-
Nah, it's supposed to be like that - it's like that on the SMF forums. A bit odd I know! Might be worth hacking to put in a close quote too...

soz bubba, just my personal preference i guess, but i'd like to see more than two contributions on a 15" laptop screen; can i change view so there's less chaff and more germ?
-
I'm not sure what you mean by the problem tbh - I can't see any difference to how it was before :-\
Try reducing your font size?
<edit - did the font size for sigs used to be different? >
-
Was using the latest Safari. Seems fixed now.
-
Liking the new look Bubbs, ta.
-
Like it. Love the orange. In your face Bonjoy.
-
i found the last one more compartmental and easier to read.i am sure i will get used to it
-
It all looks funny and different, I'm frightened. :'(
Nah, seriously, it all seems cool. Ta, Bubba. x
-
Like Dave said...Avatars really big on a phone now (ususally my only internet) so everything in a column down the right.
-
I've installed a mobile devices theme that should auto-select but it's not working properly; am working on it....
-
Just a minor request, is there any way the signatures can be justified to the bottom like before? It is only noticeable in one line replies/posts or is this a new 'feature'? Is this the same as what Soapy/Will Hunt are saying?
It is like this in Chrome 3.0 and IE8, not tried in Firefox as I don't use it, sorry. I have deleted caches in both and tried ctrl+f5.
Anyway here is a screen shot (Chrome) to show what I mean:

Box in red shows the space below the signature, box in black shows the signature right beneath the post.
-
its done it bubs, avatars gone
-
Aye, working now - looks pretty good I reckon.

if not signed in it looks a bit skewed
IE6 SP3 bland site laptop poland
-
I think the problem is IE6 - it was so pants almost nobody will support it anymore.
But you're not alone (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=349085.0)
-
when using phone no list of numbered pages at the bottom. Have to scroll right back to the top.
-
Yeah, that is a pain - I will contact the theme author to see how to change it, it will be a simple change no doubt...
-
Just a minor request, is there any way the signatures can be justified to the bottom like before?
Is this the same in Firefox or Opera, does anyone know? Or is it a global thing? I will swap browsers if that fixes the problem..
-
Which browser are you using? In FF I haven't noticed any change from the previous version of the forum, but I may be being stupido.
-
Google Chrome 3.0 (and 4.0 at work) and IE8.
There is a screenshot above, it's nothing major like I say, just annoying...I know you can't keep everyone happy so don't waste too much time on it. If it's fixable by me swapping to FF, then I will gladly do so :)
Cheers Bubba
-
Sorry, I missed your previous post - I do think that this was one of Soapy's complaints and we have fixed it before. Will try to get it sorted at the weekend, it's a one line change IIRC.
-
i've got no smileys - chrome on XP
-
Press Ctrl + F5, they will come back...
-
Well, it all looks a lot more sophisticated, which I like. Thanks Bubba!
But the "first line of post" popup seems to have disappeared (not vital, but i quite liked it and I have a horrible deja vu feeling that I've mentioned this after a previous upgrade... so I guess it's not a default setting?)
And everything seems a bit more s p a c e d out (vertically, anyway). Either that or the order on the front forums page has changed?
<Edit - I think the FAQs have been given higher billing than Technical now - doesn't work for me as I look at the Computers etc forum more than FAQs>
Oh, and the Donate button seems to have vanished.

This is working for me in the latest Firefox.
-
Yeah, this should be working fine.
Donate button, etc will be re-instated soon.

On my Iphone the main index page no longer shows the most recently replied to thread title.

I had that on my Blackberry, but I scrolled right to the very bottom and there was a link to view in full version or something and clicking that fixed it for me..
-
i've got no smileys - chrome on XP
still none, am i missing something obvious?

Sounds like you're missing some smileys :P

Anyone else finding that the "unread posts" page doesn't actually show all the unread posts?

Yeah - but I found that on the old version too :-\
-
Same for me, Tris, it's always been like that, usually I read the first lot of unread posts then click on the linky bit again and read the second lot of unread posts.
-
Maybe we could employ a tech savvy monkey to sort through all the threads for us?

Can I subcontract such tech savvy monkey to help me write some papers? :)
-
Or we could just click on the link twice, that works too. ;D

Odd, old and new versions have always done that properly for me, provided I click "mark all posts as read" to get rid of topics I'm not interested in before I navigate away.
-

:-\ is this a niche market waiting to be tapped?

Will try your tip out cheers - it definitely don't work for me, very temperamental. It took until now for me to find out that this thread had been replied to. Over 30 mins... need more power to the engines!
-
The unread posts problem usually clears up after the database session table is optimized which happens once per day automatically.
I'll be addressing (or not) some of the other problems raised here when it becomes clear what the future of the site is.
-
If you could change it from 'unread posts since last visit' to just 'unread posts' it would solve the problem for me
