By reilo Go To PostOh, I see. Will take a look. Same issue as who quoted me, since it's a reply to a reply of a thread, if that makes sense.
You're blind lol. And it's always been "most recent user that posted" on the homepage.
Lol guess I am. Thought it looked different since I never noticed it to the side before thought it was like below the thread or something.
Thanks for the updates, guys.
I am going to be honest and say that something about that new sub-menu button doesn't feel right to me (in terms of UX design, not necessarily the icon itself). Maybe it just takes getting used to, but it feels like too many options expand from it, and subsequently, I feel less inclined to use to it. The features all being in one place is fine, but the home button should not have been replaced, imo.
I mainly use mobile for browsing/posting on the site, so do keep that in mind. Other than that, everything else is looking ace. Thanks again!
BTW, the top and bottom page buttons seem to be a decent stop gap solution for refresh. At least I don't have to scroll all the way up to the top of the page to refresh it, and checking any new posts is just a button click away from that refresh.

Great update!
See what you mean with the top bar being cluttered but the functionality is awesome. You could move the down button next to the page numbers as with the up button but then it wouldn't work in the menu view. Maybe not as needed there?

You know what? I agree. The homepage button is back. It's not as crowded as I thought it was when I first played with it.
By rossonero Go To PostGreat update!Yea, I'll tweak that in the future. I gotta let it sit for now.

Sorry for the double post, but now when I click on the 4 squares the LIFE and &ENTERTAINMENT texts are overlapping and the icon for &ENT is under them and next to Gaming instead. Also Music and Welcome Back are overlapping too.

Thanks a ton! Looks and works great!
Unfortunately, now we have this problem

Yep, happening to me too, and I'm using chrome on Android 7.1 with a Galaxy S7
I'm dumb, and tired. Fixed the wrong avatar being rendered on the forum page because I clearly didn't understand what was being said tonight. G'night!
By reilo Go To PostFix one thing, break another, fix that thing… should all be good to go now.
It's the circle of life in the world of programming, lol. When those lines in the menu bar broke, I figured that's what happened.
At any rate, great job as usual. Not sure if the nested/hierarchical design of the sub-menu is intentional, but I both like and don't like it. Functionally, I think it's smart and intuitive. Visually, I don't know what to think about it. Seems like the distinct positions of the links should be reenforced with some kind of lines or borders, or maybe it just needs a different design altogether, like truncating the sub-options with a tree-like structure. Just spitballing here. At this point, it's more of a nitpick than an actual issue.

It's all good man. Get some rest.
I don't disagree and it's good feedback. I've just been re-designing that damn menu for so long that I need to let it sit. It'll get cleaned up but I got Subscriptions to work on next. This Search was a pretty huge hurdle and I'm glad it's finally over with.

I honestly hate to say anything because you've been so great at responding to feedback that I didn't want to come across as a spoiled brat. You're just one guy, so I feel like, whatever changes are gonna happen, we'll just have to deal with whatever problems there might be until you get around to fixing them.
Much props to you. You should probably get some sleep though, lol
By FootbalIFan Go To PostWebsite has changedWebsite never changes.
Wake up and search is live! So happy I could cry. Great work Reilo and Kib :)
Edit: loving the keyboard shortcuts XD
Edit2: Has that slight shadow under the menu bar always been there? Lovin' it.

I don't know what happened but after all these updates, my avatar is centered differently. :/ I want Wonder Woman's face to be prominent, not her rack.
By Face it Tiger... Go To PostI don't know what happened but after all these updates, my avatar is centered differently. :/ I want Wonder Woman's face to be prominent, not her rack.I recropped all the avatars to be centered as that was constantly being requested. Just use a square image if you can.

..... I tried my best, kinda wish we had a built-in tool to recenter it ourselves, kinda like the way an iPhone does it
By Elchele Go To PostSpecify user in search doesn't workWhat happens?
On the front page beneath the Entertainment forum link you have a subheading that says: Videogames, movies, music. Beneath that you have a centered group of links that go to Gaming, Film, and Music subforums. That's redundant. The subheading could consist of the same links.
In the future the same could be done for the Life and Sports forums if you decide to further divide the topics into subforums.

The subheading could consist of the same links.yea it’s something I’m gonna tweak down the line. I didn’t want to quite put it in the descriptor as I was afraid it would get lost and I wanted to make sure people were aware of those sub forums. I just haven’t had the time to come up with a better solution and that part was kinda strung together to get the Gaming subforum out.

I do have it disabled to search yourself but I can enable that. I forgot to do it since it’s using the same user search component as DMs and there I disabled it because you shouldn’t be able to select yourself to PM.
By NinjaFridge Go To PostIs there a list of all the keyboard shortcuts?ctrl/cmd+b = bold
ctrl/cmd+i = italicize
ctrl/cmd+u = underline
ctrl/cmd+s = strikethrough
ctrl/cmd+shift+s = spoiler
alt+s = submit post
ctrl/cmd+enter = submit post
e: if anyone has suggestions for changing these to be more universal, or has ideas for additional ones, let me know
Love all the new changes!
Has anyone had a chance to explore a Twitter bot to tweet out all new threads? I'm following the official Slaent one now and I definitely like getting some updates on there.

Angelus offered to make one, not sure if/when he'll get around to it. I'm also gonna work on a Slack integration to allow any mod to tweet stuff out as well.
On desktop, if you open the menu and close it again without selecting anything, it puts you at the top of the page.
By NinjaFridge Go To PostOn desktop, if you open the menu and close it again without selecting anything, it puts you at the top of the page.Oh shit, meant to do that on mobile only. I have to do that unfortunately because you can still scroll the rest of the page while the overlay is open because CSS is stupid.
EDIT: let me try something else, hold.
By Falchion Go To PostLove all the new changes!Honestly hoping a bot gets made for Discord, since I can turn alerts on there.

Minor comment: on the front page, there is no "top" button at the bottom of the page. You can down but not up. Probably something that no one would ever use, but seeing as the individual forum pages have "top" buttons I'm guessing you intended to have up and down navigation on all pages?

I tweaked the overlay animations, should be a bit more straight forward now and it will also keep your position on the page on mobile. It eliminated a lot of funkiness.

I appreciate the new enhancements. It's my understanding that a "reload" option is in the works, which would be wonderful on mobile, particularly Chrome, which buries refresh as a menu item.
In the interim, would it be problematic to just implement a page refresh link at the bottom, which is just a straight up link with the existing last post as a target? It's essentially the same as the last post link on the thread listing, and works pretty much the same way. Edit: I very obviously misspoke about how the existing last post functionality is implemented. So scrap that. Just a link that targets the last post as of the time you load the last page, so anything new would naturally populate below your reloaded present position.
