Admin sk_josh Posted October 25, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Howdy guys! Today we upgraded the forum software and I am pleased to give you an overview of some new features. Topic Preview Yes, we finally have topic preview! It may be slightly different then what you are used to, but it works. When viewing the topic list, to the right of a top you will now see a new icon that looks like this: You can use this feature to view an intro of the first AND last post. hooray! Upgraded Search The search feature for the site is slightly upgraded, allowing you to select the area of the site you wish to search. Comments in Status Updates You can now directly comment on other's status updates. Give it a try! No more trying to figure out who was responding to who. Profile Customization You can now choose an image to be your profile background. They can even automatically have your Twitter background imported. There are some other small changes that aren't really worth mentioning. Let us know what you think of the new features Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormChaser7905 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 I love the Topic Preview! I was very much used to that on other sites. One thing I miss is the Bolded topics that I have not yet read since my last login. I actually have to look at the times to see if it's from today or not. The Category (off-topic, pictures, etc) are bolded but not the actual threads. Can this be altered? Just makes for easier browsing on threads I haven't been in yet today! :) Thanks for the updates though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruben525 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 How? I looked for it and can't find it. I think you guys should turn the mobile version off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben525 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 90% of the time I'm on here with my iPhone and it's gonna suck if it's going to stay like this. Sorry I don't wanna be a cry baby but it's just I love this site and I don't want to not be on it as much just because of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Mervz Posted October 26, 2010 Admin Report Share Posted October 26, 2010 Just making a mental note here to remind myself that the favicon was changed during the upgrade and that I need to re-upload the old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the meantime you can scroll down and select view full version Thanks for the clue on turning the mobile version off. I was worried for a minute. Personally, I am not a fan of the mobile version. The new upgrades to the full version are a welcome addition though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
