BajiRav Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 The forums are much faster now (Y) :yes: but I can't seem to like the new skin. Feels too gawdy!

AltecXP Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Best part of Atlas/IPB3? I can collapse the Windows sections and put the Mac sections in my Favorites. :laugh: You could always collapse sections. I hate that I can't collapse the active users section anymore though.

Udedenkz Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 How do I enable that thing that was there on top all the time which showed latest forum activity? Is it coming?

+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted January 22, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted January 22, 2010 I assume that they've switched it off for now as it would probably take the forums down again at the moment.

Udedenkz Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I assume that they've switched it off for now as it would probably take the forums down again at the moment. Yeah, I read that fact after posting. +1 doesn't work either atm Finally, I am not sure whether this is more or less CPU heavy. Major issues are fixed and that IS what matters :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/867548-were-back-online-again/page/6/#findComment-592140464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
+PeterUK MVC Posted January 22, 2010 MVC Share Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) The drop down menu for my name is...well...stuck is that an IE8 problem? Found what caused it! You have to unblock googleapis-ajax.l.google.com Looks much better now and I get the text edit/style stuff for posting now. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/867548-were-back-online-again/page/6/#findComment-592140480 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chemaz Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Loving the new forums, esp the favourites section, very handy! Though there are a few issues/dislikes: 1. Quote boxes dont seem to match the theme, im using the Midnight theme, but quote boxes are a horrible green colour, just seem to stand out like a sore thumb 2. The advirtising/twitter/facebook bar at the top just looks out of place on a large monitor. If you subscribe, what happens to that bar? does it stay there (with ads removed) or does the whole bar go? But these are only minor issues, looking forward to LFA and Spy being enabled as well as the custom backgrounds for the menu bar and whatever this facebook connect thing is Congrats on finally getting up and running! Defo worth the wait! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/867548-were-back-online-again/page/6/#findComment-592140492 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LingeringSoul Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Great job with the update, guys. I just tried out the mobile version on my HTC Hero, and it worked perfectly. Much better than the previous mobile version.

Swiftie Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Looks like the load got a lot better in the past few hours too. The forums load a bit snappier now. I second this. Last night and this morning things were crawling. But I know I need to give time for you guys to do the final conversions and some nity gritty. But things have deffo picked up browsing wise.

+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted January 23, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted January 23, 2010 Christ, the loading times have shot up :/ I'm thinking it's due to background processes straining the server as well as the developers trying out things.

Shadrack Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 The forum has been pretty snappy for me! Good work! (Y) I'm seeing some bugs though... I'm thinking I'll wait a few weeks before posting them in Site Forum Issues. I figure you guys prolly see them too. Love the new design! Refreshing the web site breathes new life into it, and you guys who donate your time to bring this to the rest of us deserve a good pat on the back.

lee31 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Well the team have already explained that they're doing things in the background and that this might cause higher than normal server loads and slow loading pages from time to time. I'm sure once everything that needs to be done has been done the server loads will stay low and the slow loading page issue would have gone. Stop complaining about things they've gave reasons for.
