New Layout

DIZZY DRUMMER · 19 Mar 2005, 08:23

This is getting some used to

Have we not got the option of what syle we can have now - if YES - can someone tell me where it is - I can't get on with this colour/layout

Had to re setup my buddy list too

I have found some nice new things to play with though

Tim · 19 Mar 2005, 10:15

Indeed, this is horrible!!

Deb · 19 Mar 2005, 13:00

Is anyone else only seeing the box to type in for the shout box?

I will install additional styles soon, but not as many as on the old board.
Probably a black one and a simple grey one. Patience, please.

No text in the shoutbox?

Deb · 19 Mar 2005, 13:14

No. I just get a blank space and the shout now box

R. · 19 Mar 2005, 13:16

No forum index? How do you manage to post?
What browser are you using and could you try a different one?

Wait, I'm getting there.

So, in the shoutbox area you just see the input box and no shouts?
Like MOTS, when you're not logged in?
What do you see when you click this link? http://www.mlukfc.com/forums/shoutbox.php?

Tim · 19 Mar 2005, 13:38

Got also some troubles with the shoutbox... But i will be patience hahah. See that this is a new PHP verion R. Do think it is great the way you handle this and the forum, must say that!!

But also do think that it is now hard to handle the forum. But it will take some time to get used to it i hope.

The Butcher.

Strange that you have probs with the shoutbox.
Can anybody post a screenshot?

Btw, Tim - you may have noticed that you have lost your custom title "The Butcher".
It got reset during the migration. However, as you have more than 750 posts, you may enter that title yourself now.
Go into your profile (UserCP) and look for "Custom Title".

Yes thats all I see.

With that link I go to a seperate page to see sb and then I see 3 posts. and a huge box to type in lol. Should the sb be on a seperate page to view and not the forum page?

Deb

Tim · 19 Mar 2005, 13:50

THanks R. Reset it hahaha... I just want that title!!

R. · 19 Mar 2005, 13:53

Forum home, categories collapsed with the shoutbox on bottom:

Tim · 19 Mar 2005, 13:57

I refreshed a couple of times, then it worked. Did nothing else. Maybe it has to to with IE version or so... don't know.

Deb · 19 Mar 2005, 14:04

I have it now. I had to put the proper link to forum in and not just the main site one that brings you here

Thanx R

Deb

Just one more thing.... Can I put smileys in my messages or just at the top?

Yes, smilies work.
I'll check the shoutbox script for the link path now ...

You will need to adjust the settings in your profile, especially the message posting interface options.

What you are bickering about, is that you can specify special message emoticon which wasn't possible with the old software. That icon has nothing to do with the regular message smilies. You can have as many smilies as before.

There is a black/gold style installed now.
You can select this either by using the "Quick Style Chooser" bottom left corner, or using the UserCP->Edit Options->Forum Skin.

Tim · 19 Mar 2005, 19:35

Getting more used to it now... after a day browsing around. Noticed that when you stay on a thread link, in a topic, you will see the first message of it in a little box. Very funny. Found out some more stuff, like newest messages first, etc. Do think that is great!! Will dive deep down into the forums and options hhaha.

In fact, unlike before, you can permanently save all these options now.
