New [and hopefully only temporary] look of the Forum
#31
Another one for our list: there needs to be proper separation, probably a blacker and darker borderline, between the text of the post and the signature. At the moment, it's hard to tell where the post ends and the signature begins.

To everyone: we're working hard to improve the look and feel of DPF, but there were technical issues which needed addressing as a first priority.

As Magda and Peter (and others) have said, please continue to report any issues here. We will sort them as soon as possible, but this may take days or even weeks. Please bear with us.

If I were to rate the problems needing attention....I'd rate the fact one can not with a mouse click point to the LAST post in a thread as the biggest problem I note now....but take your time fixing...we are all cool...and 'chilling' with wine, whiskey, punch and funny cigarettes.....consider it mere:loco: information.

Sorry to report....some of my posts do not contain an 'edit' option, even though I'm signed on...I assume that is happening to others, as well. [so for now, I plead 'unable' to correct spelling, grammar and logical errors]....:loco:

The last post function is still there. When you go to a thread you will see the 3 columns the same as the old forum lay out. There is the 'Title and Thread Starter' in the first colum then 'Replies/Views' in the second column and in the third it is 'Last Post By' and next to the name there you will see a small (too small IMHO) blue button which will take you to the last post. This button was as small in the previous version and it would be better if it were a bit bigger. It has long been a minor irritant for me :joystick:

Yes Peter,I wanted to go back and fix an older post,and nowhere could I find an edit tab.The old forum had an edit tab for every post next to the reply tab.It's a fairly major problem,IMHO.

Magda,
It seems the problem is only with the pre-move posts.I can see that edit tab in my new posts here.

Ah, that's a hard one for me to test unless I have a tardis. I'll make some inquiries at vBulletin for this issue. :joystick:

some of the animated smilies don't move.

some of my own posts don't contain an 'edit' button...so I can't edit them....I imagine this is not just happening to me.

life is not fair....least of all mine.:nosmilie:
