When searching for "vis rare" it says one of my search words is too short (three letters or less).I think it sould be two letters or less and only if there isn't another word included in the query. The "last post by" column seems too big. I liked it better further to the right. Also, the Fast Reply seems to always show up even though it's turned of in the control panel. I've deleted the cookies and restarted my browser and all that good stuff but it still shows up. Another thing is the new folder icons are going to take some getting used to I guess, I think the other ones looked better since they showed me what I was subscribed too. other than those little things I think it's going to be great.

The model of the car will be shown soon...I've just got to figure out how to do it, because it involves modifying the code in the Invision Power Board software.

Did we have the number of views on the forums before? I thought we didn't, but I'm probably wrong.

That problem with the profiles is now fixed.

Unfortunately, because of the way the database indexes are created, three letter words don't work in the search, even if I lower the minimum word length to three. Rebuilding the indexes may be possible, but it would slow down the site I'd think. I'll look into it though.

The fast reply is turned on by default through a custom modification that I added to the forum's code. I figured people would like it that way, since it has to be loaded anyway.

And how did the old forum setup show you which threads you were subscribed to? I never messed with the subscription stuff myself.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Keep 'em coming!

coomer, you did a fantastic job

ya man, i appreciate the work

what happened to the comments under the profiles...

[WannabeGT4]

I really dislike the fast reply. Just adds more junk to the page that I don't need. We have the option to turn it on in our control panel if we want it anyway.

The way the old site showed subscriptions was with a black dot in the middle of the envelope icon.

The three letter limitation is really annoying... things like egr, abs, vis, etc aren't searchable. I wouldn't think that it would slow the site down that much. Come on, look how many people don't even know how to use the search function.

Also the fat grey line at the end of each post probably shouldn't be so big.

The "goto last unread" icon would look better at the end of the topic title so that the front of the title isn't so cluttered

what's this icon mean?

[snapback]206706[/snapback]Oh and what is this new snapback thing?

Edit: nevermind about the snapback thing. That'll come in handy if I can find what each post is numbered.
Edit2: nevermind I found it when I hover over the reply button it shows up in the status bar.
Edit3: sorry if I sound too picky I really do appreciate everything you've done coomer.
Edit4: show which topics I've subsribed to. Just a little to subtle to figure out at first I guess.

I just miss my good ol' "mark all topics as read".

p.s. I meant in the individual topic sections.

what happened to the comments under the profiles...
[right][snapback]206677[/snapback][/right]

They were removed because they were too hard to moderate, unlike the forums, where management is always at. I noticed a lot of mean and inappropriate comments, and people would sometimes have comment wars and I'd have to go in and remove stuff...just too much of a hassle.

The Fast Reply always open by default is now back to being closed by default, with the option of keeping it always open in your board settings in the control panel.

I think I may go back to the old post icons...I liked those a lot more, and I think most other people did too.

About the three-letter search terms, I'll see what I can do.

I like the idea of moving that go to last unread post icon.

And don't worry about sounding picky...that's what needs to be done so we can make the site better.

Hmm...another feature I never used and don't remember. Where was it located in the old version?

[Jdog1385]

yea too bad the comment option is gone, but i understand. some comments were getting out of hand.

Word. ^

[Supersprynt]

I agree with the mark all topics read piece, it used to be on the bottom of the sub forums - as I scanned each forum I would mark it read when i was done. Now its only on the main page and even then they're ALWAYS new when I come back even after I marked them.

[WannabeGT4]

didn't the signatures only show up once on each page for each person?

They did...and I gotta find a way to go about doing that again. Also, I need to make it so only small-ish photos can be used in sigs.
