Revert back to old forum software

  • Good stuff. I promise to look at the font issue soon. Search I thought was nicer (looking) than old search. What I could use is an example of something you couldnt find? Or I guess to put that better, an example of how the old search was better than the new - and by new you mean the forum search, not google, right?

    I'll check on the bug in recent posts. That was hugely asked for before so we'd like it to work correctly.

    Other than that, mostly we're working on fixing things that are totally broken or that we've had a lot of requests for. Not saying we wont fix everything, but have to prioritize somehow. I've added a page on the main menu 'site improvements' where you can see what we plan to change, will update with comments from this today. If something you want is not listed, ask!

    Thanks again for being patient.

  • Hi Frank,

    No problems here

    Far away is close at hand in the images of elsewhere.

  • I got Community Updates in my hotmail account.  After the update whenever I clicked on a link in the mail, I got Access Deny page.  For whatever reason the new version doesn't read cookie anymore if it is launched within a frame (by hotmail).  Could you make the page break out of any 3rd part frame automatically?   Microsoft.com does that so the hotmail frame is gone if the link is to its pages.

  • I suspected we might have that problem. I'll work on it this weekend, dont know if I'll have time before then.

  • OK, here's a fairly low priority one. I like being able to "watch" a topic, but is it possible to make it easier to "unwatch" a topic (or, if there already is an easier way, can you tell me what it is)? I know I can go into "My Account" and deal with it from there, but it's a bit of a hassle and if I don't let scripts run there doesn't appear to be any way to even get to the "My Account" page because the menu doesn't appear.

    How about turning the "You are watching this topic!" text at the top into a link to the "My Account/My Forum Subscriptions" page? Is that possible? Or maybe making it toggle the watching of the topic?

  • I'll add this to the list. That's a good one!
