Arnie Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 I thought I'd start a thread for issues relating to the 3.2 upgrade. I've now located all of the avatar images and placed them in the correct directory, so people should be able to see their images. Slight downside... we now have to resize them all. I've set this going but it may take an hour or two. Any other issues, let me know here. I'll then add them to the list. List to date: redesign skin (pending) FAQ's Q) Why am I not getting any emails from the forums? A) Go here: http://www.arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=notifications make sure that your notifications are set to email you when you want them to. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

aznriptide859 Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Looking SEXY. Thank goodness you guys brought back the timestamps for the mainpage recent posts, thanks! EDIT: The box above the "status updates" to start your own is gone...does that mean we have to go to our profiles to start a new status now or what? I like the feature where I can just do it off the forum mainpage. Edited August 2, 2011 by aznriptide859 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Kenworth W900 Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Is the new 'skin' design and layout optional? May we use the old version? Link to post Share on other sites

Arnie Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Page 2 pf new topics doesn't seem to load. Tried the 2 button and the next one. Which button? I've tried direct from a subforum and inside a topic itself. If it helps post a screenshot showing the offending button. the forum displays weird for me, the gallery displays vertically. this is in chrome os, btw. I don't have Chrome OS, but I can check Chrome browser. It should work okay but will check. Make sure you've cleared out your cache and aren't using an old cache'd CSS. Looking SEXY. Thank goodness you guys brought back the timestamps for the mainpage recent posts, thanks! EDIT: The box above the "status updates" to start your own is gone...does that mean we have to go to our profiles to start a new status now or what? I like the feature where I can just do it off the forum mainpage. This is the only skin at the moment. I'll see about adding that back though. Is the new 'skin' design and layout optional? May we use the old version? Sadly the software engineers at Invision completely rewrote the skin system on a 3.1-3.2 upgrade and didn't tell anyone. I only found out after I ran the updates. We are stuck with a skin based on this until either a) I rewrite it all myself, or the skin we've paid for is updated (which should appear soon). Link to post Share on other sites

PianoBlack Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Despite liking the old skin from several years ago, I think this one is pretty good. I especially like the additional options under the "View New Content" tab. -Piano Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Not a big fan of the larger text and double-spacing. Also I really liked the alternate colours for threads (helped with quickly browsing the sales sections) Otherwise it's great. Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 the formatting is all over the place on XP, some icons not showing up, status updates down at the bottom left of the page, not top right as before, and other issues too Link to post Share on other sites

ED-SKaR Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Topics seem to only have a single line for the title, rather than the main title and second title as before. Are they lost, can they come back? Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Hmm good point. They shouldn't be lost, simply not displayed. I've asked the software writers why it's been dropped. I can see a case for dropping it, however I'd like to support systems that we've had in place for some time. Link to post Share on other sites

Retro-Cow Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 I may be missing something but when changing your avatar you are limited to the 90x90 square crop, is this going to stay like this? Link to post Share on other sites

I'll fix this for you remotely now. I may be missing something but when changing your avatar you are limited to the 90x90 square crop, is this going to stay like this? We are now hard coded to 90x90px maximum in size. Not my choice but that's how IP coded it. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

aznriptide859 Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Arnie, where are the "forum" settings? It seems pages are standardly set to 20 posts per page, I'd like to switch it back to 40 posts per page as it was for mine. I can only access my profile settings (avatar, details, etc.) Link to post Share on other sites
