Fixed here too. Thanks cdj.
'Bout time!
:) Better late than never, right? It was a simple fix, thankfully.Quote:

What's New defaults to "New Posts", which is since last visit.Quote:

That was one of the most annoying parts of running a forum. Whenever I actually wanted to change the skin, I'd have to dive deep in the code .. and then remember it for another other skin.
I just noticed the BBQ logo now shows up in my bookmarks next to the link to the site. Nice.
I can't see the entire width of the pictures posted in the dynasty blog for some reason. It cuts off a bit of the right side of the pics for some reason. :confused:
For instance, in the top picture, I can't see anything left of the miami logo in the upper right corner.
Anyone else notice this?
Yeah... it has to do with the width of the page on this new template. It's still a work in progress but if you want to switch to the Default template, you should see everything.Quote:

Sorry if it was already brought up.
Well somehow my work's Websense already categorized this website as a gaming website and I can't view it at work anymore. :( You guys won't be seeing me during the day but I'll still chime in early in the morning and at night when I can.
Yeah, I caught that the first night the site was up. Don't think anyone's had a chance to dive into it. It also occasionally happens with full replies.Quote:

Thanks for taking the time guys. Also by the way CDJ I'm sending that mail soon as I get paid! :) This is WELL worth subscription for me. I'm in here like 15 times a day haha. (feels like it)
Plus, all the guys in here so far are great! Very good discussion!
Dont know if this is already mentioned but it'd be convenient to have the forum "map" (forgive my ignorance but I dont know if thats the right word) but where it says "forum -> other discussion -> off topic discussion -> forum feedback", is there a way to have that at the bottom of the forum. usually i just scroll down to read the last post on the page and it would be easier to nav back to the forum with this. i know there is the 'quick nav' option, just seeing if this was a possibility...
sorry to double post, but I'm also having an issue with the symbols next to the forums. It'll show there is an unread post in a forum, I'll go read it, and when I get back to the forum main page, it'll still say there is an unread post there, and when I click on it there is nothing new...dont know if this has already been adressed, sorry if it has...
Mine too. I was really hoping I could get on at work since this site is so new. I've gotta use my iPhone now.Quote:

Yeah, well, then your work would probably classify it as "alcohol".
My personal favorite at work is the classification of the rock music station I used to listen to in Charlotte, 106.5 WEND. I think the classification is something along the lines of "Adult Content / Alcohol / Music Streaming". For a public, over the air radio station. It's fully accurate, but still.
I'm actually shocked my work allows me to get to it. But it may have something to do with the fact that you two have already had it categorized. Because my work blocks any site that isn't categorized, so I was expecting to see "unknown content".
Sometimes this happens. It's been a problem with vBulletin (and many other forums) for as long as I've used them. It's a cookies thing that causes issues.Quote:

thats what I do, I've found that if i go backwards one level at a time, it keeps this problem from happening. like i cant jump back to the main forum page, i just have to go up one level at a time...
cdj, are you getting my PM's? and do you have any messenger at all?

Yep! Big thanks to Violator for setting that up for us.Quote:

That way I know if there aren't any newer posts in that forum when I'm done, I've read everything I care about.Quote:

I have an OCD like effect and have to read all the new posts...so I click around constantly making sure new posts havent been posted and if they have I go to them just to get the icon to change...
would be nice to have a chat feature on the site... be great to say something that could be important, but not forum worthy, or feel like waiting on PM...

Chat would be nice...or something like OS has
Agree to disagree. Chat features on forums have never worked well on any forum I've been part of. Except for very special events ... like a forum chat during the Super Bowl. But chats that are open 24x7 have never worked well.
This does make sense, something that would be on and wouldnt be used half the time. What about the friend thing that OS has or facebook. A friend IM.Quote:

an IM feature on the bottom right of just your friends. maybe something subscribers have?
I hate chat features on forums and I don't want people bothering me while I'm trying to read lol.
don't remind me. last year, leading up to NCAA 10, a ton of people would add me to their OS friends list and asked me a ton of question about NCAA like I had the game or something. I had to disable the IM thing to avoid it. lolQuote:

yeah... so... uhhh... how about that weather... ::crickets::
R.I.P. forum chat suggestion you bunch of Attachment 45 lol

It's Meebo, right?Quote:

no big deal... its not popular with everyone, so pass on that so you guys can focus on better things...Quote:
