Forum Update

[John]

Hi All:

Did some work this afternoon and completed a long awaited update to vBulletin4 software.

While I still have some work to do fixing some of the add-ons (like the post likes) and color scheme (it's not right presently), things should be pretty functional and carry one of the most asked for updates - a mobile version of the forums - which should allow for easier browsing and posting from your mobile phone.

So, kick the tires and let me know if you are having any issues.

I know change is hard to get used to and we've been with the old version quite a while, but hopefully you will find the additions helpful and that it improves your INTERCOT experience as a whole.

Thanks in advance for your feedback and loyalty!

John

Love it! Thank you for your hard work.

[John]

I'd give you a thanks but that's not working right now - LOL - should be back this week sometime!

I've been waiting for a mobile version...now if I can just find my phone...

[John]

Just noticed - our signature Mickey head post indicators are gone - add that to the list of things to fix

Everything looks great John, one thing I see missing and you might already be working on it is when you click on a thread to read it it used to change colors so you new you'd been there, not doing that anymore.

That's a link and followed link issue.... just need to find where that is in the Vbulletin templates and then yes, will get things back to the way they should be.

Thanks for the catch

Thanks, John!

The older I get, the less I like change if I'm not in charge of it. However, this is nice. So far, so good. I did need to re-log coming back the first time. I'm going to check now if it's asking again.

I love the quick reply feature! The new style will take a little getting used to but it's still fairly intuitive and I am sure we will all adapt quickly. Congrats on the updates!

Post thanks/likes/dislikes is back in business!

Do you know where the 'New posts' link is on the mobile version? I usually view the boards via that avenue rather than clicking on each sub-forum to see if there's anything new. I see it here on my laptop but can't find that on the mobile.

Thanks!

If you click on the icon next to the search icon on the right - then choose WHAT'S NEW.

Of course, you can always click on the full site link at the bottom

Great update John!

If you just "bookmark" http://www.intercot.com/discussion/search.php?do=getnew it will take you to "New Posts" in both desktop and mobile versions.

I want to mention a feature I LOVE. I used to come to the boards and first click on User CP so I could see if any new posts were added to my subscribed threads. Now I click 'Quick Links->Subscribed Threads' and BAM. I think it's everything, whether new info or not. I like this better. Perhaps that option was always there and I've just now found it. Either way, me likey...

[sgdisney]

Looks great and the mobile version is huge improvement. Thanks!

Just a nitpicky detail, but . . .
on the new posts page, sometimes the "go to last post" button is not visible if the poster's name is too long. That button only seems to be in this location on the new posts page.

Love the changes, but quick question....I'm trying to change my signature and found it in my profile, but can't change it. Am I doing something wrong or is this a glitch?
