Life after XF1 - Test

[PeckingOrder]

Looking pretty good! My only issue is that it doesn’t seem like threads with new posts are in bold font like in the previous iteration of the forums. Unless there’s a way to turn that option back on and I’m dumb.

When scrolling through old messages in the chat, I jump back to the newest message every time someone sends something new. Makes it difficult to read older messages.

My shekels have been spent wisely I see. Keep up the good work ! Long live the Eerverrlord

Looks good and up fast, good job as always, @Null !

Also, will the purple theme come back?

 

[boulderblundermatt90]

I'm back, bitches!

unfortunately, due to my dumbassery in not recording my credentials and using a throwaway email, the old profile is lost. all those green checkmarks uwu

eh who cares. i'm back. and the new forum looks smooth. here's hoping we get themes!

>Radically changing the layout of a site populated by people who are at least a little autistic

Great idea, this will go over well.

Nah, but seriously, as much as my initial reaction is REEEEEE I DON’T LIKE CHANGE I’m sure I’ll get used to the new layout sooner rather than later. My only initial concern was the lack of reaction ratings on mobile, but it looks like you just need to hold down the like button for a second to get them. I’ll report any other concerns if I come across them.

EDIT: Where are the featured threads and featured thread archives?

XF1 is dead press alt+f4 to pay your respects

Looks great, feels comfy. Love the new look. It did log me out though and didn't seem to respond to email addresses in place of username like before. Username does just fine however, so dunno if that's really a big deal.

I don't like how when you go to watched threads you see all of them, and not just the ones with unread posts now, and the threads with unread posts aren't green anymore, but I think a few people have mentioned that.

The splash that was up during the transition amused me and I like this new theme. Thanks for actually being one of the tiny handful of webadmins who actually gives a shit.

Small style bug, the code block editor has white on white text in the dark theme:

 

[Cato]

Although I mostly hate this new UI, I do appreciate the ability to apply the wider range of ratings to profile posts. That really scratches an area my particular brand of autism had always left itchy.

Avatars are no longer crushed into square ratios.

 

[MrHoneyBadger]

Thank you for the hard work! Works fine for me for now.

 

[Kirito]

Avatars are no longer crushed into square ratios.

They're still forced into 1:1 on profile pages

 

[Slimy Time]

May have been mentioned before, Featured Threads can't be found (Code: invalid_action, controller: XF:Thread, action: FeaturedArchive).
Are you doing away with it with the update?
Same thing with FT Archive.

Thanks. Update is looking good.

Feels like the future

Actually I do have a complaint about the new style sheet.

In threads would it be possible to put a semi-transparent grey background behind all of the message boxes/the message area? The background segments between each post make the page seem less-unified. That busy, multicolored gap is distracting. Even if you had a simple gray square behind them at 50% opacity it would help cinch it all together.

@Null whatever you changed is perfect, the site looks significantly better now. Thank you.

Also I've been logged in for a couple hours now so we're still doing good on that front as well.

Ok supremely minor issue but I just looked at the "reactions recieved" page and there seems to be some visual hiccup with the icons
