Forum Upgrade April 2023

Hi all, welcome back to the new and improved LandyZone.

Yes, you can now upload files!

Yes it looks a little different!

Yes there are some things missing and not quite right!

I'm working on it, but wanted to get the forum back open tonight!

Refreshingly lacking in adverts all over the place.

No doubt they will return to reduce functionality in the same way as previously... (but it would be nice if they didn't)

Well done.

It is heaps faster and seems more resilient. The post-reply button could be orange so it shows stands out a bit more for those with vision issues but looking good so far.

No longer get to see how many posts/pages on a thread.. that's fine but it means when you click on the thread title it takes you to the very first post, when most of the time you want to go to the last/most recent page.
Can that be fixed?
Edit: if you click on the time link after the number of replies, that takes you to the most recent post

You on your phone? heard others talking about the lighting strike wots it do.

The "latest activity" is the new LZ live but its cluttered with the new likes.

Hope there is still some "fine tuning" left to do. As happened this morning.

Must try it in "guest" mode as no ads at all ATM.

Oh I have found that in "preferences" you can turn of peeps signature (as some ore long) and painful on a phone apparently.

You don't see sigs on a phone
The bell is alerts, multiple alerts for the same thread which makes it quite long.
Lightning is recent posts

What's annoying is the lightening bolt is 'What's new' but includes read posts, so is actually 'recent posts', not unread posts

 

[kermit_rr]

What's new and new posts, are different.. maybe just needs a tweak

 

[slomofo]

I’m going with ‘Misty Buff’…..

Nice to see the upgrades
