Feedback Issues with Forum Layout

[thephantom]

Our forum layout has been changed to a new one that will be present on both browser and mobile. If you run into any issue on either platform, please do let us know by posting in this thread.

Any information is welcome and as with all bug reports please try to narrow down the steps of what you are doing that lead to the issue. If it's a visual problem then of course a screenshot might be more efficient in showing where the error is.

ok !!!

It lacks the recent posts.
As it is, it's quite hard for me to find anything.

We're working on that as we speak!


ETA Note: 'New' icon of new posts in the top right corner is in orange on orange background. Needs changing.

You fill me with joy.

So far I am not too excited as everything seems to run together. It is hard to see what can be clicked on to move to another section. It is new so maybe it will just take some time getting used to it, but so far I find navigating rather difficult.

i don't like it either, currently writing a user-stylesheet

is this positioning intentional?

edit: also, the "By" is missing between title and username.

edit2: this is missaligned:

edit3: spoiler text is unreadable

edit4: i'm using the wrong thread. *sigh*

(i'm on a mac using chrome)

The main logo seems small. It would be wonderful if you would increase height similar to demo.

You can't see the 'new posts' section on the right hand side? Is that on mobile or browser? Which browser are you using? They're listed below the 'Members Online' section, as it was on the old layout.

It's better, old layout was (is) pretty archaic for forums.
I only dislike new forum logo, keep the old one with figures of different ages (at list they
symbolize movement from age to age and a man with houses behind him could be a logo for Farm Frenzy, for example)

Under the Announcement section you'll find the Daily Changelogs. The thread in question can be accessed from forum's home page, since that is where the last post under Announcements is.

You can also see it under 'New Posts' using the right hand sidebar. Just like with the old layout.

• "New" text on the clip at the right side of a new post is not readable
• contrast of icons in the editor (both quick reply and full) is quite low
• highlighting an item in the conversation / alert popups (bottom right icons) render the item unreadable (colors)
• the popups of of those two mentioned above plus your profile shortcuts appear only when page is scrolled to [near] top; not when reading at the end of a long thread
• convenient methods to mark a thread or a whole form as read are missing
• crappy search function - short terms are ignored, no obvious way to use wildcards or other placeholders, no [boolean] operators
• no 'jump to top' at the end of thread lists / in threads

 

[RedRed]

• I don't have a background image, just a navy-blue background
• There are several issues about color contrast and misalignments (f.e. this is for in subforums dropdown; also the spoilers background-color is too light)
  Spoiler

  
• There is a lot of wasted empty space under the "forums" bar (as for the truth, from PC there is alot of empty space everywhere)
  Spoiler

  
• footer contains a cryptic "agb"; as non-native english speaker I'd prefer "Terms and Rules" (BTW the first google result for "What is agb?" is pretty funny)
  
• InnoGames footer logo is white on light color (barely visible)
  Spoiler

  
• [mobile] apple-touch-icon is still the standard XenForo logo

 

[Artubar]

• 'Imprint' in the footer forwards to the support login page.
• why are avatars forced into a circular canvas now??

I don't have a background image, just a navy-blue background

I prefer a plain background over some distracting graphics. But it could fit the overall color scheme a lot better than dark blue does.

The spoiler actually is very unreadable. Same applies for the notification of 'NEW' too. It is pretty handy if one has been following a particular discussion.

What I want to know is, if the actually game logo has changed or not (if it has changed then it would be the second change, 3 logos in total).

 

[DeletedUser]

notification is unreadable on hover.

 

[RedRed]

• text in the search dropdown panel is barely readable
  
  
  
• hint text in the update status textbox is unreadable
