Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
We have completed the upgrade of forum software to the next major version.It has a different default look (surpize) so don't get scared. This is actually very exciting.
Please, leave your comments here or in a new thread about almost anything, including:
- any errors
- speed of forum
- looks, style, design (we plan to add more styles soon, and you can override the default style to whichever you prefer the most. There are number of styles available. Check out some of them here, for example)
I will gradually restore all the old buttons and graphics into the new look.
Some posts made during the last 24 hours were not converted, due to the fact that I left the board open for posts during that period. All older posts were not lost, however!

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
My initial reaction when I opened the page up was "wow" - I like it. Also, for some reason, I prefer the font that the system now generates for posts. What I will say, though, although I may just be being fussy, is that now, if you try to reply to a post before you log in, you have to "Return to previous page" in order to start typing your message. Surely you'd want to do that anyway so that wouldn't be necessary? Or is that there for a reason I'm not thinking of? I'll say more later once I've looked around a little bit, it's great so far. :)

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Horrible!
I am completelly shoked for this moment, though I am about to explore the site and find every good features of its new look.
I felt like in the stupid movies when you get up in the morning and suddnely see yourself in the mirror looking completely not like you!
In the first seconds I thought my computer was broken, then that it jumped to the unknown site.
But I feel that all what was to the right is to the left now, and it seems unwell. I am acustomed to look at the left side of the page first and see the first information (who is posting) and now I feel like Alice behind the mirror.
When can I change the color scheme, please?

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
The style is highly unwonted, and we all have to get used to it. It’s cool anyway.
By now, the only thing that’s weird is user info on the right. :?
Some smilies have bacome disgusting in look. :(
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
I agree with Rtyom; having the user information on the right is strange, I think. Some of the smileys do look a little strange. Also, when you want to view a reply to a topic, you didn't have to log in before. You only had to log in if you wanted to reply to it. I suppose that problem can be solved by clicking the box saying to log you in automatically, though.

Right now, there is one style with user profiles on the left side. I will make it look more like the old one we had before, and will add several more soon.

This was because of the square brackets inside the name of the picture. You need to rename the file or replace the square brackets with special character for brackets %5B and %5D like this:

The BB code is enabled for the signatures.

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
I really like it. I couldn't case less about the colours as long as it's readable, which it is, and I prefer the new layout especially when viewing the site on my mobile.
Thumbs up from me.
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
New layout is acceptable for me just in another style than default one. When I browsed the forum after revision in my first time, I thought: "What the hell they've done with avatars and info :o ?" It looks really odd and unwonted to see on the right side. So I just switched it to the common one and getting joy now. 8)

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
The site no longer logs me in automatically, even though I have the option checked. As to the new layout and skin, I guess it takes getting used to :)

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
A question: Why can't I change "my language profile" from British English to anyone other? There is no choice. Will it be added? :roll:
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
I find this horribly ugly and unclear. I really liked the simplicity and restrained elegance of the previous forum.
That said, I aknowledge that it may be just getting used to it.
Besides, I haven't tried the other styles and color schemes, just this default one.

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
А почему теперь запаролена тема "Dual-Language Books" (при входе требует пароль, но под обычным паролем внутрь не пускает)?
И логиниться теперь приходится заново каждый раз, как заходишь на форум (опция "Запомнить меня" не срабатывает). Надеюсь, это временно. ;)
Еще, по-моему, стали намного медленнее грузиться страницы.
Больше глюков пока не замечено. :)

Да, это очень заметно. (
Смайлы. Хотелось бы, чтобы базовый набор был прежним, без "инопланетян" (тех, что с острым подбородком).

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Информация о пользователе сейчас справа. На мой взгляд, так лучше :thumbs: . Хотя завсегдатаям форума, может быть, непривычно
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Я поменяла стиль на Subsilver2, фонт - на больший и форум стал выглядеть привычнее.
Да, раздражает, что страницы переворачиваются медленнее.
А можно будет потом поменять цвет форума и размер фонта?

Will those posts eventually also be converted? I note the entire thread «Я тебя поцеловала» Аллы Пучачёвой is missing from the "Translate This!" forum.

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Previously when I entered the "Grammar and Vocabulary" forum, the threads were ordered so that the thread with the most recent posting was presented first, and then the others followed in the order of second-most-recent, third-most-recent, etc. That no longer seems to be the case.
If from at the bottom of the page I choose "All Posts," "Post Time," "Descending" in order to sort the threads in that manner, the threads still do not seem to arrange themselves in the desired fashion. I assume that is a bug?

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Каждый раз при создании сообщения появляется страница, где предлагается либо посмотреть свое сообщение, либо перейти к форуму. Зачем это нужно? Для меня очевидно, что посмотреть, запостилось ли сообщение и нет ли в нем ошибок, совершенно необходимо. Разве не так?
Есть ли возможность пропускать эту страницу и переходить сразу к сообщению?
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
И еще зачем-то требуется залогинится, чтобы посмотреть ответ на свое сообщение. Зачем?
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Кроме того, автологин не работает :evil:
Вдобавок к тому, что каждый раз, чтобы посмотреть ответ на свое сообщение, нужно логиниться (ЗАЧЕМ!?), так потом еще появляется страница "Вернуться к предыдущей странице" :wall: Вы что там, издеваетесь?! Во-первых, какая нафиг предыдущая страница, я только что зашел?! :dunno: Во-вторых "предыдущая страница" - это вообще-то страница, на которой я логинился (ЗАЧЕМ!?), хорошо хотя бы то, что на нее не возвращаюсь :evil:
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Yep.
I like it. We have moved to XXI century. :lol2:
It's going to take a while getting used to it, but the general imression is positive.
The pages are loading slower though.
And at last we have bigger window to post replies ))
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Like Windows, new version has changes that cannot be reasoned out. I did succeed in putting the user info back on the left, thanks Lampada. But could not find how to reduce the font size. It is huge. Control-hyphen does nothing. Firefox 2.

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Мне очень нравится новый вид форума!

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
If you keep having to log in delete your mr bookmark, log in, them create a new bookmark. Worked for me.
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
А я всё ещё в шоке.
MasterAdmin, можно хотя бы добавить серую схему из того набора схем, на которые ты давал ссылку? Ну хотя бы это, ну пожаааалуйста! (блин, рыдающие смайлики тоже куда-то пропали)
P.S. Мне не нравится.

Поменяй My board style (User Control Panel -> Board preferences -> My board style) на subsilver2. Получается достаточно спокойный синевато-серый дизайн, и аватарки слева.
PS. Сделайте что-нибудь со скоростью, плиз! Невозможно пользоваться форумом. Мне на 512 кб/с приходится иногда по 5-6 сек. ждать загрузки страницы. :cry:

У меня с вроде 4000 то же самое. :evil:

Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
It's very slow. Every page takes a long time to load. I have to log in every
time I come here, even though I have "login automatically" checked. A change
to a web site should be an improvement, not just moving things around and
causing confusion.
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Не знаю, что у вас со скоростью — у меня нормально или почти нормально...
:dunno:
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Кстати, с переходом на альтернативный вид форума, моя подпись отображается нормально...

Я знаю, я пробовала ту схему. Там тоже очень много синего. И там шрифт идиотский. :(
P.S. У меня тоже всё медленно грузится.
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
Кстати, на второй схеме был типовой логотип php2bb вместо логотипа MR.
Синенькое всё мне даже нравится. Эта унылая серость была весьма тосклива (тут кто-то жаловался).
Хотелось бы, конечно, побольше цветовых схем.
-
Re: Yes, we upgraded the Forum. Tell us what you think?
О! Я гляжу в новую схему. Так гораздо привычней.
На нашем форуме побывал "Квартирный вопрос"!
Всё равно, спасибо за старания! Просто непривычно, а привыкнем...

Флэш отключили. Теперь во всех постах с YouTube'ными роликами мусор :?

I will be adding it. The forum interface is presently available in "British English" only.

Those posts are in the old database, but it will be easier and faster to just repost them than to convert. I can copy-and-paste them in a new thread if you want.
