Threads

[Gemdog]

So it's telling me on the stats that there are two posts and two threads started. however there isn't anything visible.

Unless it's counting the Admin ones, which I cannot see.

[Beefy]

*ding ding ding* :D

[Gemdog]

Ok, do we want it to show the count to the general public or more of a cbf after the merge nobody will notice?

[Beefy]

We'll just have to spam it up a little before they get in. Most won't care though.

[Gemdog]

Whoa nelly

[Beefy]

MSN just died on me :(

I think I'm more of a fan of user info down the left instead of above each post. Thoughts?

T-t-t-t-triple post!

I'd agree with you there beefy I like the user info on the left under their name.

Also whats with the page icon under eveyones name in a post, thats says default when you hover over it?

[KamiKaze_King]

Testing to see if signature adds, yup it does. it doesnt add it to old post tho

[Gemdog]

I like the green dot to say you're online.

I think the side is good.
Is there any way to combine them. Eg Avatar and name on the side, and all that JoinDate/Location/HowMuchTheySpammedTheSite across the top/bottom.

Also is there a mod to enforce sig sizes or avatar sizes?

The bulk edit threads tool (tick boxes out in the thread list) seems to have insanity. i ticked one and made a change, it claimed i hadn't selected any.
Try again with another mode, works fine
try the other mode, now works fine.
Try another, fail again.

Mainly the approve thread doesn't know whats going on. unapprove move etc are all fine

[Gemdog]

thinking about it now, it may just be that it was pre-approved. meaning it just has a stupid error msg... try and approve a approved and it does it.

I'll change it over.

Must be a Quick Reply default to use it as a post icon. Will remove that too.

Your old post probably didn't have it set to show sig. All new ones will.

Yeah, it's pretty special.

Probably easier just sticking with side. Bottom bar will be beneath each post anyways.

Settings per usergroup. Set to 100x100px, 30k I think.

That's moderation stuff which doesn't need to be used (we don't make threads go into a moderation queue). Any thread that is active is approved.

And Multi-Quote worked for all that too :D

I can quote your multiquote

[Rib]

I can quote your multiquote

oops, maybe not, you can't quote quotes!

[Beefy]

That's a good thing. Nested quoting sucks.

Sweet - auto merge of double posting (or triple in this case)

how much more testing is needed before this goes live? This is so cool what the new forums can do I can't wait till everyone sees it

[Beefy]

Well... I can skin it sooner than I had planned and we can go up after that's done.. however we'll still be missing the event management thing, sks's Facebook plugin that he wants and a couple other things that aren't quite finished...

One major thing that we need to do for most of that is upgrade to PHP5, which sks is also trying to organise. I'd prefer to have that done before we go live, in case it breaks something.

[KamiKaze_King]

yeah that would be good having it upgraded before we go live just incase

is there a plugin for xfire to work with these forums, similar to what the xbox leaderboard is?

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 PM ----------

Also with the xbox live leader board on the side pannel is there a way of making that look better? the link looks messy and with the medalian on one line and the position on the other looks well messy.

loving this auto post merg tho :-)

[Beefy]

What kind of XFire info did you want (I'm not that up on Xfire... to me it's just a gamer chat thing)?

I'll change the text on the XBL thing so it fits better.

[KamiKaze_King]

just want in maybe the users profile the games they have been playing and the time spent on it. Thats pretty much all i use xfire for is to track my time in-game would be nice to see it in the forums and even to compare it to other gamers as well playing the same game

[Sideh]

Yeah, these forums ROCK! Well done Beefy. I reckon release when it is ready but it looks fantastic, can not wait till skinned though! Anything i can do, just say.

[Axol]

yeh that sounds logical, would be a massive drive away to get every1 here, then have key components break.

btw can i be mades admin? :P

[Sideh]

obviously your a favourite!!!

[Beefy]

He's skinning for me. Needs access

[Axol]

haha :P
i am teh awesome :P
