New Forum / Changes

Not sure if this has been covered yet but I lost all of the single thread notifications and main area (example: for sale- optics etc) I had established.

Any way to make the "go to first unread" button to the left of the thread title larger on tablets? It's hard to hit with your finger.

Good suggestion... we will look into that. The problem is that the location doesn't have much extra width.

Jay, I appreciate the change to the forum and actually like it a lot.

Do you guys plan on upgrading the whole AccurateShooter site or just the forums? I think if this look was applied to home page and everything else, it would all blend together wonderfully. Thanks.

Next task is the Daily Bulletin -- making it "responsive" and more modern. But this is also not an easy task with a template that has been in place for 6 years, and 7000+ articles.

Good to know. Thanks for the work.

Increasing visibility of the "Reply" link is on a short list of design changes we want to make. I would like to make it a button if we can.

I like the new format which appears easier on the eyes and more user-friendly to me

Was a Ace Member with over 600 posts.. now 399. I guess all those ''I'll take it'' don't count any more??

I'm withholding any substantive judgment, comments or suggestions until I hear the "all clear" sign but so far so good.

I am always feeling a bit negative when forum changes come but i really like what you did and first time on i had no problem navigating through it or finding out things quickly. Thumbs up and a great job well done.

I've noticed I'm no longer a site contributor, is there a reason why I'm no longer listed as one?

Boss: James, "Site Contributor" shows on the left under your name in a big gold banner. This also appears on your profile page. Please try refreshing your page.

I like the updates. Just learned how to delete a thread of mine concerning an item I sold and just left some feedback after stumbling around a little. I had withdrawals last evening after i could not get on here while the updates were being done..

My name was changed from Ackleyman II to Keith Candler, I am NOT a happy camper!!!

Change it back. There is a "Change Username" if you click on your name in the top right next to "Inbox".

Not bad but much more difficult to navigate. I liked this site specifically for the format style of the old forum. Was so easy to keep track of adds and threads.

I do think the LIKE button is a great addition as well as some of the more detailed search features. Just not crazy about the layout. Takes a lot more scrolling and digging around from a mobile device to find things. Haven't tried it on the laptop yet. I know my opinion holds no weight here. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I'm sure it will get easier as I get more familiar with it. Who knows, might end up liking it better

There's another minor indexing issue that's occurred with the new software. On the old software I could bookmark New Posts & I would get just that - all the posts since I checked last. This software displays all posts to the end of the index as defined by index number (http://forum.accurateshooter.com/find-new/1761/posts), so New Posts can't be used as a bookmark.

It's all OK by me. Some other sites I frequent have the same issue.

 

[CM21VE]

I went from like 250ish posts to 2? Well now 3 with this post! Was feedback going to be reapplied?

 

[DennisH]

Since when did you start talking like the guys "down south"....?

Let me add my thanks for a more friendly site as well.

And "y'all" is spelled wrong, it's ya'll . . . and this is on one of the nice names we use! LOL

We're aware of the posts display issue for some users - we're checking on different possible solutions, but we will fix it.

For username changes, I checked some permission settings, you should be able to click on your name (next to the "Inbox" tab in the top right), and in the drop down, see "Change Username" in the left column. Click it, and you can update your username.
