New Features

Just a couple quick things. The normal theme will be going back momentarily, but here are some links to some of the new toys!

Re: New Features

Some of the features may disappear when I revert to the old theme, but there is a lot of work in getting the support for the new functionality into a workable theme.

That stuff will be coming very soon though!!

Re: New Features

Is the missing drop-down menu on Quick Links expected? I use the Mark Forums Read thing there all the time and now I need to wait for a 2nd page to load for that. I thought at first that NoScript was blocking the JavaScript but it's still allowing tg.com. (Curiously, it doesn't list any other domains to allow/deny, suggesting that content is no longer coming from other sites. I recall at least 3 listed before.)

Re: New Features

What are the social groups for and how do you use them.

It appears it is just a long list of messages, is there more to them than that?

There are a number of things "broken" until I get all the templates updated. I wouldn't expect to see 100% functionality return until the weekend.

Re: New Features

The template has been largely cut over. There are still a TON of fixes to do but it was functional enough to cut over. Lots and lots of tweaks...

The new functionality should all be working though. One big thing is the new user profile pages. They are HIGHLY customizable and you can even put in your own background images and such.

As an example, check out my Profile page.

When I'm done with my hit list I'm going to open up a thread for bug reports and fixes.

Please read my last post. There are a ton of KNOWN fixes. The quickest way to get me to stop paying attention to the threads is to jump on all that stuff right now. Let me get the known issues resolved and this weekend I will open a thread for any lingering issues that are not completed by then.

Re: New Features

I've toyed with the idea of setting up a bug tracker like Bugzilla or Jira on my forums to funnel problem reports to where people can see if someone else already reported them.
