djpretzel Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 I've found the setting and increased it to 25. http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/342760-like-system-reputation-in-32/ Brandon Strader, timaeus222 and Black_Doom 3
Liontamer Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 Not sure if they have already been mentioned, but I have a couple of things. When I'm browsing through the forums on my phone, the site randomly switches between the mobile and full version. Also, I don't see a way to skip to different pages in the mobile version (I may have overlooked it, idk...). I have to go through every page. In the full version the page numbers are on the bottom, but in mobile you just have "next" and "previous." I asked djp about it, and he'll see if this issue is resolved when we move from IPB 3 to IPB 4. Definitely agreed it's needlessly annoying.
Pavos Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Don't know if this has already been said or not, but if I load the desktop version on my mobile phone (since the inbox or new posts aren't easily accessible otherwise), the "inbox" icon is partially behind the OCR logo on the forums. This makes it very diffucult to see if there are any new messages and also very difficult to tap the inbox icon (I usually tap the OCR logo instead). I'm using a Galaxy S5 fyi
Callas Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 On the front page, under "ReMix Comments" there's a text encoding mismatch for: EarthBound 'Dialima tu Kafé' Chrome says the HTTP response's Content-Type doesn't have a charset but the HTML does as UTF-8, so I'm guessing some server-side content generator is just messing up the text encoding. It believes the charset it's reading with is ISO-8859-1, and is helpfully transforming it to UTF-8. However, the charset was already UTF-8...
Cash Posted July 17, 2015 Posted July 17, 2015 I've noticed that since the latest update, there is no longer a link to OC ReMix artist profiles below a posted remixer's user name. I'm wondering if this was a deliberate design choice, or something that may have been overlooked. I liked having that link, that was one of the ways I discovered posted remixers.
wildfire Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 can't really tell if anyone already found the solution to this, but is there any way to set a global preference so all threads to display with the most recent post first and the first post on the last page?

wildfire Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 It's not supported in IPB. ugh. alright, thanks.
SuperiorX Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 I can't seem to find the old "new forums" thread, so I think this is the most appropriate place to ask this question... is adding the "OC ReMix Artist Profile" link from a forum username still in the works? I recall Dave and/or Larry saying that was being worked on when we transitioned to the new forums. I always liked being able to easily see if someone was a posted artist (and then checking out their stuff) from within the forums. Thanks!

Brandon Strader Posted August 15, 2015 Posted August 15, 2015 I saw the link for follow us on twitter and facebook under the preview this mix button on the mixpost page... I was thinking it would be awesome if that was follow the artist!! It would be such a good place for those buttons right next to where the artist's music link is posted! djpretzel 1

I think it would be worth exploring putting some artist links on remix pages. djpretzel 1

Most of the right column is intended for non-context specific content, but yeah... this is planned, just not in the same exact location.
SuperiorX Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Eventually, but it'll be back. Cool thanks, I appreciate it!
Rozovian Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 I know I've mentioned this elsewhere, but it'd be nice to get some thoughts on it: Font size, line spacing, post whitespace. I'm seeing Arial 14pt on the forum, and Arial 12pt in the remix write-ups. Why the larger size on the forum? I'm not sure line spacing is a problem, but some of my posts look much longer on the forum than in textedit where I sometimes write them. It could just be the font size, but line spacing might also be involved, especially if double line breaks lead to a single, empty paragraph, and paragraph breaks are greater than regular line breaks. And the whitespace, where every post has a 1) Poster bar, 2) posted date bar, 3) actual post, 4) like bar, 5) edit/report/quote bar, and a 6) sig (although I've turned them off so the forum would actually be usable on a laptop screen). Couldn't 1+2 and 4+5 be combined, respectively? Is there a way to shrink the vertical size of the posts to make it easier to read the forum as more of a conversation? Also, who enforces the sig size rule?
DarkeSword Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Sig size is softly enforced. If I see a sig with images that are stacked too tall, I'll notify the user.
Chernabogue Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 It seems the Project forum isn't protected as it was before.
Liontamer Posted November 23, 2015 Author Posted November 23, 2015 It seems the Project forum isn't protected as it was before. Anyone can post there. If something doesn't belong there and isn't an OCR project, the thread is moved, no big deal.
Anorax Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Is there a way for thread notifications to be condensed into a single notification per thread that updates, rather than a notification per reply? This can make it hard to see what threads you follow have updated, especially if one is very active - you may get thirty notifications from one thread and end up missing one or two notifications about another, simply because of the volume of notifications. For me, the form subscription system that vbulletin offered is much more useful than the one that is currently employed with the new-ish forums.
Chernabogue Posted November 24, 2015 Posted November 24, 2015 Anyone can post there. If something doesn't belong there and isn't an OCR project, the thread is moved, no big deal. Okay, thanks for the clarification. This should go to Recruit & Collaborate.
Anorax Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 So far, I like the new forum update, but trying to dodge the OCR Mascot in order to get to the forum settings can be problematic at times. Within the past five minutes, I've accidentally gone to the mascot page instead of my settings several times.
Arrow Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Just as a heads-up, DJP wants issues with the new forum upgrade to be reported in the Community thread specifically for it, over at http://ocremix.org/community/topic/42360-notice-forums-upgraded-to-ips-41x-report-issues/. Makes it easier to tackle all the resultant issues in one spot. Anorax 1
DarkeSword Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Minor nitpick. This isn't really an issue with the new forum, just a stylistic request: Any chance we can get square avatars back? Not crazy about the round frame.

Just noting I'm fine with the circles, but don't care about what's chosen.
avaris Posted December 17, 2015 Posted December 17, 2015 Really liking the new style! Indifferent about the round logos.
