Hmm.. What is that Facebook thingy on top of the page??

Setting it up required some more thought than I had time for last weekend. It's doing only the basic Facebook integration at this moment. Clicking on it will load into your FB account if you have one.

It seems as if the quote gap for IE is solved too. Can anyone confirm?

Confirmed: no more extra spaces between quoted material and user input in IE.

Glad that did it.

Seems to be fixed in Firefox as well.

Is the Ubuntu upgrade proces easy and convenient or does one need to tweak everything again?

As far as I can tell it kept all my settings, probably saves them in config files that aren't updated.
Was only my second upgrade so far, a more experienced linux user should be able to give a better/more informed answer, as far as I'm concerned it's pretty good though.

Hello,

I changed a few files, and now the forum should work like it normally did: so https://forums.totalwar.org/vb loads the forums (just like the new https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/forum.php does).

https://forums.totalwar.org loads the CMS just like https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/content.php does (coded in tab at the navigation bar).

It should work smoothly, but don't hesitate to report glitches with it.

I love you TosaInu.

Is anyone else experiencing annoying slowdowns on page loads? It only happens to me at the org.

When the page is nearly loaded, it hangs for a couple of seconds like it's waiting for something. Very annoying.

^ that's happened to me too. Click on a thread and the loading bar moves VERY slowly. Sometimes the tread doesn't open at all before I give up and leave the guild. Happens occasionally. I went to another forum immediatly after this happened to me one day and I had no problems there. Strange.

Could you please put a horizontal rule line between peoples' posts & their signatures? Or hmm in the preview there is one so maybe it just needs to be coloured differently so it shows up?

I keep finding myself reading the same signatures over & over

Edit: Ok this is a Guild style specific issue. The other styles show the horizontal rule ok.

I recently switched to NTW style background from the guild style. I like it, but on blue backgrounds, the grey and green texts are hard to read. When you hilight the forum jump thing at the top of the tread posts, you can't read what you are hilighting. Nothing big, just minor annoyances. Thought I would share.

edit: the blue box on a blue background surrounding quotes is also hard to see. I should be yellow! :)

No problem I was just in a complaining mood anyway! :) I like the guild style. I will just stick to that one for awhile.

For me: It loads the page, but not the latest unread post. It sits at loading for like 45 seconds, then jumps, by which time, I've read the posts by scrolling down. I think its an ad thing.

Hi Tosa,

I was wondering if there is supposedly any ETA on a fix for all displaced pics, sigs, smileys and quotes on the boards? Is that something that will be fixed any time soon? Things has been placed like crap ever since the supposed software upgrade. It hardly strikes me as vital – but it would be nice to have things properly placed again (as supposed to).

- Cheers
