07/08 - Forums Update

[Tay]

List of new features:

• Thing 1
• Thing 2
• Thing 3
• The other thing
• The thing you've been waiting for

 

If you run into bugs, post them here.

NOTE: The FuwaFabulous theme is still broken, so until I can fix it, please use another theme.

[Mr Poltroon]

In the interest of saving everybody's time, I recommend instead reporting what isn't broken.

It appears posting is still functional, for starters.

[Arcadeotic]

The thing we've been waiting for finally did something useful, the inbox list works again

Now I can see my bazillion PMs on the glorious Infinite Stomach v2

[Kaguya]

Thing 2 was particularly inspiring.

I have to agree. Good work Tay, it's glorious!

[Narcosis]

So we have three things instead of one? Good heavens.

[Nosebleed]

Tay, I want to use the (superior) dark theme, but because of the animated banner my CPU always goes bonkers.

pls fix (i.e please remove the animation).

Am I the only one with a normal pc?

It's broken for some, not for others (though the majority report it being broken), I doubt it's related to my PC since every other website works fine.
I tested multiple browsers with the same results as well.

Either way, it's the animation that breaks it, so it'd be nice if it could be turned off since it serves little purpose.

Note: by broken I mean CPU usage goes up by 30% every time the banner animation is being displayed.

NP. I'll also post a guide in the GM board for how to take it off, in the future.

Okay, all done. (Note: Also made that post in the GM board)

Can confirm CPU is not going crazy anymore, it's nice to not hear my computer fan speed up while browsing fuwanovel.

Maybe it just had feelings for the site?

[Valmore]

Tay, working with the Cat in the Hat to bring you things since ... whenever. Now with Thing 3!!!

How's the status of the reviews part coming along? I've got one that's been sitting in limbo about a week now. 

[Godskrieg]

Great, now my pretty animation is gone. This is why we cant have nice things.

When the front site is done. Like I said, only in the mood to fix it once. Don't want to post it, then lose it to a rollback, and have to redo editing, and fixing of categories.

Oh, we aren't posting reviews until the front site is done? Great, now I have a perfectly valid excuse for procrastinating on mine. Thank you @Tay and @Nayleen.

"do=GetNewComment" no longer brings you to the end of a thread if there are no new posts, but instead to the beginning. This is the function used when clicking on the icon to the left of a thread in the forum view, and on the thread name in the main forum index.

It's mildly inconvenient.

[Yuuko]

None of the threads are bold like before. Topics still are.

 

Also if you have read the thread it wont take you to the latest comment like Decay already mentioned.

[Tay]

Regarding Thing 3: it's working exactly as-advertised. If you don't like it, use This or That from the last update.

RE: Spoilers/formatting changes - One of the GMs can do that for you. This is why they have ACP access.

(Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha)

RE: Front Site - Just waiting on Nay's schedule. I'm otherwise ready to put it up.

[Shikomizue]

I think this might be a bug. On posts of mine that got liked by more than one person, it shows all likes as one person liking it however many times.
