New latest posts page

Post by mike »

Hi all,

Spent a bit of time configuring the latest posts page. Its broken in Internet Explorer 7 I think (blocks wrapping when they shouldnt) and I'm not going to fix it tonight. If anyone can see what the problem is (using firebug or something) do let on :wink: Otherwise just use firefox. I would love to actually limit the whole site to firefox but I know there are those out there that would hate me forever!

Private messages are accessed via the latest posts page now.

Should make keeping track of posts and more importantly topics a little easier.

That will change soon. That page will have the links on it to do everything you need to do in the forum nice and easy in the top left. This is the first step in the ore tidy up. Galleries are being built tonight. I most likely won't get to bed before 3am again (last night splitting out the various forums into their own blocks).

I feel quite strongly that the new 'lastest posts' page' is more difficult to navigate then the old one.

The old style (like todays) is much simpler, just a list of the lastest posts. Logical and easy to scroll through.

Just being honest.
