I also requested a little darker of a line between posts :) It's on the massive to do list haha.
Minor issue with the new forums: Emails are sent from vb.dual-boxing.com, which does not exist. Some mail servers (including mine) reject e-mails that come from invalid domains because the return path doesn't exist. Anyway, made it unnecessarily difficult for me to reset my password, and if you guys can add a dns entry for the vb subdomain or change the vbulletin config to not send from vb.dual-boxing.com, the problem will go away.

Any particular reason the avatar max dimensions were reduced from 150x150 to 100x100? Took me awhile to get the image I created a couple of weeks ago to be look right, and it'll be completely unreadable now.
Mail SHOULD be coming from webmaster@dual-boxing.com now instead of webmaster@vb.dual-boxing.com I just missed it on the move off the subdomain, my apologies. If you're still not getting email from us, and you've checked your spam folders, catch me on IRC and I'll reset your password.
Hai,

Ohnoes ;(
Firefox and IE sucks -.-

WTF?
Opera 10, which is a beta, so live with it being a beta, seems to render properly.Quote:

I had a few picts in the old gallery - are they all gone ?
Heh, forum search ftw. Could not for the life of me figure out why the page would load sometimes and not others. Turns out my home bookmarks pointed to the malformed link as you noted. Reset that and it's all good now. ;) Thanks!Quote:

I've tested on both Firefox and Safari on MacOS and both show the same problem.
Looks like the youtube embeds are broken ?
(for instance
http://www.dual-boxing.com/showpost....81&postcount=1
)
There is also some bug with root url or something as a link to my profile (clicking my name after Welcome, Moorea) from the top page
http://www.dual-boxing.com/
goes to
http://www.dual-boxing.com//member.php?u=11120
(2 slashes)
another issue: link to post should like in the old software auto replace with the thread/post subject instead of the url
Hey guys :)
The recent threads on the portal page doesn't have more than 1 page even though you can click through 4 pages. They all have the same posts on them.
I used to use the "view threads from the last 24hours" option at the top of the forum as my main method of reading the forums. Any chance of getting that back? I'm kinda lost without it :(
Other than that, the new forum looks great :D
Keep up the good work guys, much appreciated.
Look up top. "Quick Links" --> Today's Posts. ;)Quote:

Very minor issue - the thread titles on the portal page of recent posts are abbreviated quite a bit. It's something like 20-25 characters. Some of the threads can be hard to tell what they are about from that page. All the other forum pages the title shows the full length.
I'm using standard Internet Explorer 8 with Windows Vista. In the version, it states 8.0.6001.18813.
I wasn't able to click on the links at the top of the page. I wasn't able to register, wasn't able to hit the FAQ, nothing would work. It would simply refresh the screen when the link was clicked. I tried it on five of my Windows Vista machines all with the same version of Internet Explorer 8 which is the latest right now from Microsoft.
The only way I was able to get here was to follow some of the public forums which I could barely get to. That's meaning that most of the links wouldn't work there either, would just refresh the current screen. Found a link where someone said to use the "Forgot password" option and that link worked.
I don't have this problem any where else but with the new site. I have default privacy settings, default popup blocker, etc in Internet Explorer.
Am I the only one that has had this problem?
Use this link to get to the site, i had same issue, people on IRC helped me out,
http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums.php
dont use your old bookmark.
Sweet change.
Looks great guys!
I think there may be an issue with private messages and the 'Your Notifications' section to the top right of the screen. I sent a message earlier and now 'Your Notifications' says Unread private messages:1, but when I try and find what that message is I cant find it anywhere. Im guessing it is probably registering the message I sent as a unread message.
Inbox contains 0 messages.
You have 1 messages stored, of a total 500 allowed. (Empty Folder)
When I click empty folder it says 'Are you sure you want to permanently delete all items in 'Inbox'?'
Sorry if its just me being stupid but I cant find the message it is refering to and I dont want to empty the folder incase it is a reply to the message I sent earlier.
Thanks :)
EDIT: Fixed thanks to the following post by Moorea. I made a new folder named 'New' and the message appeared in that folder.
Don't delete - try making a new folder as a workaround, your inbox message will/may show up in that new folder once created (they did for me; but I didn't have a "new" one, only old)Quote:

Images seem to be huge now. They used to auto-scale on the old site to fit whatever width the forum posts were. Now, if anybody's used a giant pic, it displays at full-res.
Everything else seems to be okay, though, so it seems the transition was pretty smooth. Thanks!

A few things:
- Images are default size now, they old forums auto scaled images, the new forums are do not auto scale.
- Yes, the old gallery images are not imported. This is why I had *multiple* threads reminding people and telling people to BACKUP anything they wanted.
- Attachments are missing. If you tell me the thread titles / posts they're missing from, I'll see about getting them back.
- If you can't click on forums, see blank forums, buttons / links not working. MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT USING OLD BOOKMARKS. This is the most common cause for such errors.
The entire thread title should now be displayed on the recent threads portal block. As should the forum the thread is in.
Why is there a box for quick reply that doesn't allow you to just start typing and do an actual... quick reply?

This seems kinda retarded, so I fixed it. Now you should be able to just type away in the box.
Ah, very nice. Tested and worked like a charm :)
Next request, and this one may not be possible:
At work I can't spell check because it won't let me download the addon that pops up when I click on the ABC checkmark. Personally I would rather it just check my spelling as I type as it did in the last forum (by highlighting the text with a red underline). Any way of doing this using the new forum?
I don't understand, what ABC Check mark? I think one of my Firefox addons is what does the red underline for misspelled words for me.Quote:

The other forum somehow highlighted the text (just like it does for me at home using Firefox) but this one doesn't automatically check spelling and you have to have the IE addon (when you click the check mark it tries to spell check but fails if you don't have the addon installed).Quote:

the new/unread status of a bunch of thread (this one included) doesn't seem to work for me : specifically this thread wasn't "bold" or didn't have a "jump to last unread" even though it did have new messages (I do have some other thread with new status and I didn't click "mark all read" ever)
any answer on the youtube embeds ?
(if you do add some code there, can you have options to make the embeds widescreen and/or hd)
Yeah, firefox issue was with the old link. I was pretty sure that I tried going to the main page and then clicking the forum link, but I probably didn't. As far as I can tell everything else is working as expected.

Hmmmm at least the site is readable on a blackberry with vbulletin. Needs work though.
I'm having an issue seeing the forums on Google Chrome.
I can see the forum list (general discussion, macros and addons etc), but when I click on general discussion to see individual topics all that loads is the toolbar at the top (User CP, FAQ etc), then immediately below it the What's Going On area with current active users.
This happens on all forums, not just general discussion.
Happens to me both with chrome at home and at work.
Works fine with firefox.
