New forum

[Bulat Ziganshin]

new forum is "glamour" in all meanings it looks beautiful, but improperly formats many posts forcing them to look like this:

the same narrow setting used when i edit my messages. also i don't like this layout because it's using almost half of my screen for person's info

btw, can you rename my thread to just "FreeArc"?

about Old Forum Archove - does it include anything we have written before? it will be great although as i understand i still need to search old topics again since urls are changed entirely?

[Intrinsic]

Looks horrible to me, nothing wrong with the old layout everything was a lot clearer.

[encode]

The forum is just opened... It's mostly in debug mode... Wait for some time!

[Bulat Ziganshin]

yes i understand. just bugreport to let you know

thanks for renaming those elderly thread!

also, all html formatting on old forum becomes wrong even quoting

[Surfer]

Search was broken.
For example, try to find "BMF", in old engine all was Ok.
I suggest, that new vbulletin version needs "tweaking" for searching words, smaller than 4 symbols.

[encode]

Try again...

[roytam1]

I can feel the new vBB4 is slower than the older one.

[Fu Siyuan]

Why the attachment function doesn't work either on my IE7 and Chrome?
The select file in Add Files doesn't work. and add insert attachment shows "undefined"

[webmaster]

The asset manager is an enhanced interface for uploading files. It allows users to reuse their existing attachments with ease. Some older browsers may have problems using the interface.

asset manager disabled. tnx.

Including Firefox 3.6.3? LOLed

Wow that will be nice.

increased the level of gzip compression html from 1 to 3. ~1.4 % saving

Post preview in topic list is bad idea! Better minimize information - keeping only thread title. Like with miniBB or vBulletin v3. Currently, we show too many information...

try check Remember me? before login

[Skymmer]

Well, from one point of view I agree with people who don't like the new design. I miss the previous "flat'n'grey" style too. But from another... Maybe its just matter of our habitudes ? One thing is surely deserves a lot of thanks - multi quote thing. Previously it was quite pain to create the multiquoted message manually. Thanks for it ! As for design, maybe its good idea to start the poll about it.

try check Remember me? before login

It requires cookies.

[est]

the new forum is fast and nice

[webmaster]

It requires cookies.

Course. In FF can be permitted only with cookie encode.su

[webmaster]

New Template

In the lower left corner of any page, select from the list Child of vB4 Default Style.
Now ready only the upper part of a template (header).
Opinions?

[encode]

BTW, please fix "top" menu, that placed at bottom. Currently we se just a '?' char. Also, for login use "Remember" or "Remember Me" instead of "Save". Better do not change the words and phrases...

[encode]

My previous message was posted via cell phone. Now I checked the forum via PC. Well, looking good! Although Still not sure about "Save" check-box, IMHO, "Remember" would be more correct.

[encode]

Removed that nasty #top link from the footer...

[webmaster]

My previous message was posted via cell phone

what font is in your phone's browser?

Still not sure about "Save" check-box, IMHO, "Remember" would be more correct

With a width of 1024 px and "remember" the menu does not fit in one line. ok, fixed it.

[encode]

On my PC the "?" was displayed as well. So font doesn't matter.

You may replace the search text input. To the second line, or somewhere else. Or even add Search menu item...
