nice to see someone notice this, only been 474,623 posts and 18 FN calender days

 

For what it's worth, I reported it some time back, and have been making fairly regular bug / problem reports (including links to this thread) about it ever since. Believe me, first thing tomorrow, there will be some more discussion about it - Craig Anderton noticed something else this weekend that is a bit funky, so he's going to want to get some answers too.


As soon as I know anything, I'll let you guys know. wave.gif

that's always happened for me. every now and then all of my read posts suddenly appear unread, and when i hit the 'go to newest unread post' button it takes me to a post a few pages back from where i'd got to. i've just learned to live with it idn_smilie.gif

Changing your settings as he directed should clear up any issues with not being able to see "old" threads. That doesn't fix the other issues (Sept. 7th search cutoff, etc.) but it should fix that one for you guys.


If you try it and it doesn't work, please let me know. And thanks to TUBODORE for posting that. Phil-Thumbs-Up-Small.gif

OH WAIT SLEEP harhar



Phil question, How does HC feel about the huge contrast between the home page of HC, and the forums? You know like that brown look vs the blue and white. It feels like two different sites that happen to link to eachother.

I can tell you how *I* feel about it, but it wouldn't necessarily be the "official" position on the matter. smile.gif I kind of like the brown and gold color scheme we have going on the main site. I'm not always crazy about the functionality of the main site - while it's largely unapparent to readers, from a content creator's standpoint, it's rather challenging at times to do layouts and things of that nature. I believe that one of our long-term goals is to more closely integrate the two parts of the site - the main section and the forums - in terms of look and feel. We did plan on offering "skins" for you to be able to pick from on the forums, and IIRC, one of them was going to be a color scheme similar to the one on the front page, along with this one (to satisfy those who don't want anything changed) and maybe one other. It's been a while since we discussed that, so don't hold me to any specifics. A lot of stuff got put on the back burner for the rest of this year while GC and MF merge their headquarters. The IT folks have been pretty busy with that and other things, so unless we have urgent maintenance needs (such as the stuff we're going through right now), we haven't wanted to bother them any more than necessary. After we get past the first of the year, things should hopefully settle down a bit and we can maybe start to think about those sorts of things.

I know... there's a meeting in less than an hour from now regarding some of the remaining issues, and as soon as I have any more info that I can pass along, I will do so. wave.gif
