knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Interesting feature from (I presume) the Leaderboard function of the new site. If you go to Mav's profile, he got an award for "Winning the day" yesterday with the most liked content. 2 Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 The old version of the board would often start at the newest unread post but then scroll back up due to images continuing to be loaded, especially twitter links. It was really annoying especially the recruiting threads would require me to scroll back down to find the next post. This upgrade fixed that issue and now my page stays on the newest unread post. Thanks! 3 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Could you guys make the About Me section the default view when you go to someone's profile? That would be preferable to seeing their content. Quote Link to comment

Thanks! That was a huge pet peeve with the old board. You'd have to wait until everything loaded, select the address bar then hit enter to get to the post you wanted in the first place. This is MUCH better/faster. 2 Quote Link to comment

I didn't know that trick with the address bar and hit enter! Like an idiot, I've been scrolling back down with my mouse/keyboard this whole time. Quote Link to comment

FYI, if you go to Unread Content on the main page and then select Status Updates from the Content Type dropdown, it's very similar to the old status page. 2 Quote Link to comment

It seems to be showing up differently for different Users but I can't find the pattern, let alone any setting. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Actually, I only see the About Me section on my page. I don't even see your About Me stuff on your page, or anyone else's. Here's what I see on my Profile Page: Here's what I see on everyone else's: Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 Yeah, that's what has me confused. I was only seeing it on your page. Quote Link to comment

So others are showing up with something similar. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 I just noticed that. So this banner means that it's going back through the database and making this accurate from when we first started doing Rep? That's amazing! Here's what it looks like when I tried to do custom dates. Fro Daddy sighting! 1 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 Problem solved. Bad I didn't think of this earlier. The "About Me" only shows up if .... wait for it .... you have filled in something About Me in your Profile. Crazy. I added something and: 1 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 That's hilarious. There are a few things I don't like about this version of the board, but there are a LOT that I do like. It'll take some getting used to, but I think this is going to be a way better version. We just need a better skin. 3 Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 That's weird. I just lost a bunch of posts off my post count. I had been over 40,000, now I'm back down to 39,939. Quote Link to comment
