Anolytic Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I like the new forum layout, though it's going to be hard to get used to. The only thing is it doesn't "feel" like it's that Naval Action related anymore. It's probably just that I am used to the old visuals, but I miss the banner on top and the old colour scheme that reminded me of the blue of the ocean. And it's harder to spot new activity in topics now as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CeltiberoCaesar Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) I'm glad you take care of the web, were there any issue with the old one or is it just matter of updating the appearance?

Guest Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 The mobile style is bit difficult to handle. But in the overall the new software version looks pretty modern and we're getting used to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z4ys Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 On cellphones the profile pic is bigger than the text section. So much scrolling for just a few words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ink Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Captains, some old features like avatar shape has been brought back, we will check on other stuff like recently posted threads on the main page and such a bit later 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havelock Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Ty Ink, these bubbles hurt my profile pic design It's only possible to have one image in the signature. (Old signatures still work tho) Since some of us (like me) also have rank badges or flags next to their signature it would be nice if they could be increased to 2 or 3.

Jean Ribault Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Would've been nice to know this was coming, like in a big big prominent announcement, instead of it just going offline, and then the content not working after being online and it simply giving a bunch of errors for a day. Doubt I missed anything prominent, being mostly always online. This new layout will definitely take quite a bit of getting used to, never seen any forum configuration like this one. Currently having a difficult time just mimicking the old process of viewing the threads I posted in, in chronological order. Ah, change! So painful and promising at the same time.

Hethwill Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Couple hours later I am already getting used to it. Most important thing is that all the left side controls passed to the top bar groups. Custom boards subscriptions have been reset so personal filters have to be rédone, but no big deal.

Jean Ribault Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Well if you click on Online Users at the top it does tell you where everyone is currently residing on the forum. But I agree for example in this specific topic while I'm reading it I can't tell who else is......I think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if it kept at least a few lines... For now, if you leave the chat room and come back to it then it's blank. CHAT: Anyone know? I agree, it's weird if you click anywhere else and come back it's all erased. But then again, I haven't seen anyone else's posts in chat at all, so is it even working? There always seems to be 7 or 8 or so logged into it but no posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ink Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) chat is working, but perhaps it will be turned off later update: We have turned it off Edited November 9, 2016 by Ink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikard Frederiksen Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Having seen this form of forum used elsewhere (War Thunder), I'm a little disappointed it has been adopted as I'm not particularly a fan of it*. Oh well, I'll manage. *In my opinion forum formats have been going downhill for a fair old while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Ribault Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Is there no more way of seeing a list of all the registered forum users anymore? Do you have to be a forum admin now to see the list of registered forum users? I realize you can see "online" users.
