Better, than the test site, blander than the past.

Yes, this is great. New minor problem though (and this one is probably user error), when quoting a post that contains multiple posts (like this one), I cannot for the life of me how to remove the first quote from the multiquote (in this case, the quote from @agris), that way only the relevant segments are quoted. If I delete all the text, it leaves an empty quote block from the user.

Toggle BB code and manually remove the entire quote block.

You can also delete empty quote boxes by clicking on the quote icon above while the cursor is in the quote box.

Alas, something is mildly fucked with the avatars on Firefox. I think the lazy image loading used for them (...why?) runs much later in the overall page load in firefox than in other browsers. I see the image alt-text for 2-3 secs after opening a page, every single time:

Doesn't seem to happen in other browsers. Got a feeling no one is going to rush to fix this given the tiny number of firefox users these days. Time to look into a local fix...

 

[agris]

Same for me, and I'm storing/loading all my cache from a ramdrive. The site is actually slower for me on Win10 FF and iOS Safari than the old one.

Heh.

(i'm ok with this, the upgrade was worth it. the upgrade was worth it. the upgrade was worth it)

edit: Taluntain would this fix it? http://haaikho.com/index.php?resources/remove-lazy-loading-remove-slow-loading-1-0-xenforo-2.4965/
FreshCorpse mentioned lazy loading, idk what that is but apparently it's default w/ xf2 and is a known issue w/ FF scrolling

Lazy loading generally means things are loaded only when required rather than initially. It generally means things will be faster initially but there will be a delay when the resource you need has to load.

 

[FreshCorpse]

Don't think the problem is lazy loading. I disabled it in about:config and the problem is still present.

As an aside, the lazy loading bug with firefox is this one: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1618240. The issue is not that it's slow but that firefox lazy loading is a bit too lazy - loading only the current viewport (+300px perhaps? judging but config defaults).

The ordering of the given ratings also needs fixing. I think they are ordering correctly now only if the ratings are in the same line in the popup-box.

You probably need to put all ratings "in one line" and set a max-width for the popup-box so it does not become too wide on the desktop. For mobile, also set an outside margin for the popup-box of maybe 10px.

 

[Devastator]

I guess it was not a mere bad dream.

 

[Rincewind]

Another minor autism nitpick: The left and right padding margin inside the box of given ratings should be the same on both sides. Right now there is a much larger margin on the right of the ratings inside the given ratings box.

I love it how attention to detail and doing a good thorough job became "autism" in the Codex vernacular.

 

[Rincewind]

I don't mind the centered avatar section, maybe even prefer it by a small margin.

 

[GhostCow]

How do I see who is ignoring who? Is that feature still around somewhere?

 

[The_Mask]

And here I thought you're all bout that LITERALLY HITLER.
Anyway, speaking of aesthetical woes: can 5 minutes be invested so that avatars that used to move, can do so again. Just like DU likes numbers, some of us like moving tokens and pictures.

Many thanks!

 

[Tavernking]

So has site traffic gone down in the last few days? Let's see the stats

 

[Narushima]

Name under avatar was perfectly fine and didn't need to be changed.
Now it looks weird.

 

[GhostCow]

Can't find a button to change avatar, or is one stuck with it? Otherwise I like the updates

They had a weird custom thing going before. I wouldn't expect to be able to change your avatar for a while

 

[Lady Error]

Can we try to make the front page look like this again?

 

[Nano]

Also, change the "Brofist" text back to "Rate"?

How about getting rid of

as a button and replacing the brofist with it? It's about as useless as the donut but it could still serve a purpose, especially if double-clicking on the button didn't automatically rate the post with its icon, currently the brofist. Maybe Zizka could make a cleaner version of that, if needs be.

Fuck you.

The watched threads page needs work. The dividers between threads are using the low-contrast version from when the site was first rolled out, not the current higher contrast dividers used for thread separation when viewing a forum.

Done. The black divider should now apply to all thread lists.

More importantly though: the watched threads page shows you threads with no new replies, massively reducing its utility. The old version only showed you threads with new replies, hoping we can get that back.

Needs an XF2 addon. I can't do that. See post below.

Remove text from within the quote. Position the cursor right below the quote. Press Backspace.

Can't do that via editing templates.

 

[Twiglard]

Taluntain can you add this addon please? Users want to show only unread threads on the 'Watched threads' page. This is a pretty useful feature, and is part of regular Codex user 'workflow'. Particularly, this addon adds a filter by default to show only unread threads there <https://xenforo.com/community/resources/watched-threads-filtering.6876/>.

Too bad this is a paid addon, but the other one providing watched thread filtering is twice as expensive.

When editing in BBcode the text selection background color is the same as the editor color, making it impossible to see what you have selected. But the BBcode editor may be fucked up since the cursor does not always follow mouse clicks. Sometimes appears out of bounds too :

Weirdest thing is that BBcode edition works perfectly, but the invisible selection and broken cursor gives the impression the text is read-only.

 

[Twiglard]

It should be fine now.

I will not eat the bugs. I will not live in a pod. I will not use 2FA.

If the brofist icon was replaced, it would have to be with a version stylistically similar to the other two icons. The brofist icon quite incidentally fits the bill. The naming should still be changed to Rate though.

I was about to suggest that the "button" be made black & white to suit the +- and arrow glyphs....

Also, change the "Brofist" text back to "Rate"?

Do you have some special love-relationship with

?

 

[Ranselknulf]

Maybe this has been mentioned, but I'm not reading through 40 pages to check.

Could the image linking process be stream lined.

If I currently want to insert an image into a post, the "upload image" function defaults and I have to click to the "insert link" button to change it over.
