Wachtwoord Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I understand you can switch skins but this looks exactly like Runescape Communities boards over at zybez. I could have swore the admins said tif would be set apart and thats what was taking so long was making this version of IPB different than the other fansites out there.Sorry, but there must have been some misunderstanding. It didn't took so long to make it look more unique, it took so long because there were a few unexpected bugs. However, I do hope we'll get a new skin some time (if you are an awesome designer, feel free :pray: ), but it could take a while though as the admins probably want to get rid of all the bugs first. When everything's been said and done, more has been said than done.All skills 80+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MageUK Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 Great job, good to see that the new forum is now up :) I have one question only:Is there a "My posts" search function, accessible before through http://forum.tip.it/search.php?search_id=egosearch ?The above link is what I've always had bookmarked (aswell as home page on Firefox), and I liked to see all topics I've replied to quickly like that. What could I replace the bookmark with?http://forum.tip.it/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=user_posts&mid=19747 I understand you can switch skins but this looks exactly like Runescape Communities boards over at zybez. I could have swore the admins said tif would be set apart and thats what was taking so long was making this version of IPB different than the other fansites out there.We would have been different, RSC were on IPB 2.3.6, they upgraded to 3.0.3 while we were in the process of converting to it. It was a much easier process for them as upgrading is far simpler than converting, because it's still software from the same company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way I can see if there are new posts to the thread etc. But that one will have to do for now, thanks :) By the way, now when I click a text formatting button, the tags come up including the closing tag; will you be changing this back to the way it was with the start tag coming up first and then clicking again for the close? Actually I don't know if it ever was like that since I've mostly typed them out by hand, but I think it was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, are their any new skins instead of the current one in the works? I think Tif would look a lot better with a dark blue skin like it had before. It set us apart from the other boards and was easier on the eyes. Thanks for the reply on my other question, I didn't realize Rsc updated while you were already in the conversion process and after you guys had made the statement about being different from the other sites.

Sbrideau Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Looks good but generic, can't wait till we get the new skins. Too bad I don't know yet how to make new skins :P. Very nice job at changing software, and you guys have great patience, looking back at the 12 page topic. I noticed a download option, if it's what I think it is, this is awesome!

Sbrideau Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I just got a question because of what I just found.

Wheels Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I just got a question because of what I just found. The tip.it image at the top brings to the forum index instead of the website, are you going to put it back like it was or just keep it like that?I noticed this too, and although the homepage button is right underneath it, I'm so used to just clicking the huge tip.it logo. Overall the forums are very awesome based on what little I have seen so far. All I really had to do was turn off a bunch of email defaults. Also worth noting - I think the "Location" section under your avatar should also be followed by a colon, as well as shifting text that is 2 more more lines farther to the right (if possible). Look at mine to see what I mean. Are you winning The Game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tip.it image at the top brings to the forum index instead of the website, are you going to put it back like it was or just keep it like that? We'll probably keep it like that, what you're saying isn't quite true (from before). In phpBB, where that image linked would vary depending on the skin you had (older subsilver style or newer prosilver style). In IPB all of them link to the forum index by default so we'll probably just keep it like that. There's a Tip.It link right underneath it anyway.
