Redpanda Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Minor complaint. You can no longer tell at a glance if a certain user is online by checking the green circle next to the username. In fact, there seems to be a blank space there now.Such atrocities.Now I can't stalk people more efficiently. Quote

Nosebleed Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 I thought the notifications broke again, but turns out now whenever multiple people reply to the same thread you're following, you only get one notification:I guess it's kind of neat because it's compact, but it's not really real time now since it only shows the date of the first reply, not the latest.Not sure which is better really.

Darklord Rooke Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 It's because your theme is green...@Tay: It's not just Tiag's account. Quote
Nosebleed Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 I don't have that green ball next side usernames either and I'm using the vastly superior dark theme.More notification info: if you check your notifications/mark them as read and then someoe replies to the same thread, then it does create separate entries:Unless this was Tay reverting notifications back to how they were, in which case forget this post.Edit: I no longer see the "edited by" at the bottom of the posts when I edit them!Although the box is still always automatically ticked which is annoying since I have to uncheck it every single time.

Mr Poltroon Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Could just mouseover the name and see tho if that info is important.but no no green dot. unless mouseoverI don't know how to mouse over on mobile Tay, Ryechu and LiquidShu 3 Quote

Tay Posted October 10, 2015 Author Posted October 10, 2015 NOTIFICATIONSAll things considered, I think this is at least do-able. Are we all feeling a bit better about notifications, now? It's not quite the way it used to be, but it's at (or nearly at) "functional" for me. I'll do a few more tweaks, but otherwise are we ok giving it a few days to get used to the changes? GREEN-DOT-GATE Who'd have thought this is what did us in? We survived almost a dozen FuwApoalypses, dropping torrents, several metric tons of salt... but this green dot... ... Time to pack up and head home, guys. Stick a fork in us. We're done. Could just mouseover the name and see tho if that info is important.but no no green dot. unless mouseoverI don't know how to mouse over on mobile < 3 Okay, I'm with you guys now. Yeah, that's not something I'm going to feel a huge need to re-implement since you CAN scroll over a username (in a thread, or down in the bottom of the page/index with the lists of users) and there you WILL see the green dot. But! If the themes get an upgrade later making it possible, I'm fine with turning it back on. Quote

The feature didn't work for the chat, but worked in the shoutbox.Ah. The chat app we're using now is an extension of the Chat app from IPB 3, not the shoutbox, so it doesn't surprise me that the problem still isn't fixed. As far as I know, the IPB Chat app is getting a huge overhaul in the IPB 4.1 upgrade which is being rolled out sometime between now and the end of October. Hopefully that'll extend ignoring capabilities! The message feed in the small box is gone, which is annoying. Please put that back.You posted a picture of this, but I can't figure out what's wrong. Can you explain it to me like I was five? Or Rooke?Before the upgrade, if you held the mouse on a users name a box would pop up and in that box your latest activity feed message would be visible. And now it's gone.Aaaah! Now I gotcha. As in their latest status update, right? Yeah, that would be fun/nice to have. I imagine that's a theme issue, so I'll go pester the theme dev about this : ).

For example, I encountered this issue here, but this topic has several other comments like this too.

(currently set as Requiem for a Rekt)Need answers for my madness to lower CHAT POP-UPRight now the only way to get the chat to pop-up into its own window is to make it so that chat ALWAYS pops up into its own window. I'm picking IPB's brains right now about this, but I don't have any new information to share about it just yet. In the meantime, you'll just need to open chat in its own tab/window in your browser. IF the chat app doesn't get a lot of fixes with IPB 4.1, I'm going to explore other options for chat. It's annoying that IPB 4's chat app is so far behind the IPB 3 version. BACKER TITLE CHANGESDidn't notice this until you mentioned it. It looks like IPB 4 also merged User Titles and Ranks. This is annoying. In the meantime, backers can message an admin and we'll change it for you whenever you want.GMs: Can you still edit member titles? I don't see the option outside the ACP, but that may be b/c I'm tired... Quote

Nosebleed Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Actually, double checking things, I can edit some members (tested with Tiago, OriginalRen and even Tay) but can't edit others (checked with Repanda and XionsProphecy).Might be because they don't have the member title option available under a certain post count which in turn also makes it unavailable for staff to edit now whereas before staff could add member titles to members even if they didn't reach a certain post count.
