Changing up the forum layout..

[Shaggy]

So far, what do you all think? I will be adding a few more section, especially the Seattle Sports as in Seattle Mariners and so on.

Looks too busy. When will we get the viewed topics and threads grayed out? When will we get an option to remove the sidebar.

Side bar removal is not an option yet due to the add on not working right. Haven't heard of any updates on it yet.

The reason for more sections to hopefully get more activity on certain topics. For example, if users see there is a full movie section, they may want to post more about their movie experiences. Its worked well on other sites that I add new sections to. Also, it helps with SEO(Search Engine Optimization) to hopefully get new members that may search for Seattle Kraken info to come here and signup and post.

I'm really liking everything so far. It highlights choice of forum but also shows options as well as responses to the posts you have recently made. What's not to like?

It’d be nice to improve the color palette as the new format colors are a tad washed out. Maybe that is a low priority but so far so good.

What do you mean? I'm all for ideas, but not sure what you mean by washed out.

I like it a lot better. Appreciate the upgrade

Probably don't need a Dragons forum and an XFL forum.

Are you planning on an individual forum for every league? If so don't forget the WNBA.

Ha ha, if there was alot of talk about the Seattle Storm, I would. I just haven't seen alot here if at all.

Shaggy if you look at the roster thread you will notice that there are several colours green, red, electric green, etc. and the colour palette available is not as extensive or as bright. It's small thing but could be improved upon.

this site has a weird formatting issue when viewed on my iPad with my sidebar bookmarks open. May want to look into what’s causing that. not sure what you’re using here for CSS

Post up a screenshot if you can.

What about having viewed topics & threads gray instead of just not being bold?

 

[Cyrus12]

No issues and really like it so far. I'm on my android phone and haven't tried it on a computer yet. Major upgrade imo.

Yep, that's the thought. Just going to make them different in color where you can tell easily. I just need the guy the created the theme to edit it.

I'm pretty sure the Text color palette can be altered. Failing that posters have the option to post in any colour they wish, (the 3 dots after Bold and I talics, and then the paint pallette), as long as they can post the HEX code. (For some reason XenForo 2.0 changes HEX to RGB for coding purposes, but there's nothing admin can do about that).

If members want a specific colour they should type 'hex code' into an internet search engine. Plenty of sites will help you find the colour you want. On a personal note could members please avoid going beyond F1 on the brightness scale. Thanks in advance.

I typically use Samsung internet browser with like 4 ad blockers enabled. It looks like hell. When I viewed it in Chrome it looked much, much better. I'm looking forward to seeing it on a pc.

Is there anyway to have the thread title on top of every post next to the posting date? Right now the only way to remember what the thread was initially titled is to look on the URL bar or your open tab. Hard to follow when you have 15 or more tabs open at the same time. Thanks!

Yes, good call, canoli. And if the title is at the top of each post in its header (beside the posting date), perhaps we could have more posts per page. I don't know about the logistics of that change, though...

 

[Shaggy]

So you are saying when you scroll down, you would want to the title and date to still show on the top of the page even if you are at the bottom of the thread viewing the last few posts? Just want to make sure I'm understanding you 2.
