Forum Updated

[MageUK]

Welcome to the latest version of Invision Power Board!

 

This update has brought us to the latest version which has multiple improvements over what we were running previously.

 

These updates include:

• Link Sharing - Topics can be shared via Facebook, Twitter, etc..
  
• Status Updates - Status Updates can now be commented upon by other users and more.
  
• Topic Preview - You can now get a short preview of the first and last post in a topic from the forum view by hovering over the topic and clicking the icon that appears.
  
• Inline Notifications - You can now receive inline notifications about events occuring on the board. These can be configured via your profile and have a lot of customisable options such as being notified when someone quotes one of your posts or replies to a status update.
  
• Search Engine Overhaul - The search engine has been redeveloped from the ground up to be more powerful and useful, although there are currently a couple of bugs which we are working on that are detailed below.
  
• Mobile Skin - We now have a brand new mobile skin that should make using the board on your mobile device much easier and quicker to do. It has full support for things such as Messenger which the old skin did not.
  
• Thousands (literally) of bug fixes including issues such as searching by topic title.
  

 

We will also have a couple of other surprises coming for you very soon. ;)

 

As with all updates, a few bugs have been introduced:

• In resolutions lower than 1280 pixels width or so, there is a small issue with the forums on the index page not being correctly lined up, depending on your resolution this can sometimes be fixed by closing the sidebar. This issue is merely cosmetic.
  
• The comments area in blogs/gallery has a small cosmetic issue with the emoticons panel.
  
• Some profiles contain a horizontal scrollbar in their contact information area.
  
• The social networking share options within the blogs section on the CleanCut skin does not look correct.
  
• Member searching from the top right search box currently has a small issue with pagination.
  
• Gallery searching currently does not work.
  
• Some users in the online section appear to be "beneath" the board statistics on the Tip.It Theme.
  
• View New Content seems to be not working for a lot of people (could you drop me a PM if yours is working correctly?)
  
• Hide/Spoiler tags are bugged.
  
• Code tags do not look correct on Tip.It Skin
  

 

For those of you who use the "View New Content" option - you may find it beneficial to visit the options page for that and change the method to "Show me all content that I have not read" if you are a very active forum user.

And it's all thanks to Peter, that guy that does magic with tech. <3:

 

Woo, lots of new shiny TIF stuff! :thumbsup:

[Danqazmlp]

Where has the rum gone?

 

Good job on the forums Peter.

[Racheya]

I'm liking these new updates, the forum looks way sexier now <3:

[tripsis]

Peter is win <3: A lot of great bug fixes and new features!

[Mil]

Awesome as always! :thumbsup:

[The Observer]

Loving it already. :thumbup:

[Wingless]

Oh wow, it looks sexy D:

[obfuscator]

All of the text seems a lot smaller now :?

 

Other than that, sounds good :)

 

EDIT: Ok, the fonts are wayy too small on tip.it theme. The other styles look ok.

 

The mobile style is mediocre, could have done a much better job on that (although obviously you guys didn't make it).

[Maulmachine]

Change is scary.

[Bows]

I like it. Good job Peter. :thumbup:

[rangeor]

I can't wait to share this thread with my friends on facebook!!

 

Joking aside, it's a nice update. The font change will take some getting used to though :P

[Hedgehog]

Damn sexy!

[TTanT]

I somehow doubt I want Facebook disocvering TiF. After all, I have friends there that would look me up, and I don't want them finding my relationship thread and confession thread posts.

 

But I don't have any actual complaints, so all's good. :smile:

[JohnTheCop]

Why is the rum gone?????????

I NEEEDED THAT RUM!!!!!!!!!!

 

Nice Job Peter :thumbsup:

[noble_aloof]

Change.

[Pirate_Felix]

Am i the only one who doesnt like it?

Anyway i do appreciate the effort you put into it, Peter.

[Tim]

Where has the rum gone?

It makes me sadface ;__;

 

Great job Peter! Every thing's shiny and makes my PSP easier to use here now. :3

Anyway i do appreciate the effort you put into it, Peter.

 

What don't you like about it?

[das]

I somehow doubt I want Facebook disocvering TiF.

 

 

Facebook connect will be turned on over my dead body among other admins bodies anytime soon.

You won't be seeing that feature at all, rest assured.

[Mirror]

Looking nice. :D

[Harakiri]

I can appreciate every update but the new font. I don't like it. Just the font for all kinds of stuff. It just doesn't look great...And I also don't really like how small the text in my info has become. And it's harder to tell if a thread has been updated since the text for the threads name on the page of threads is not lighter, it stays bold.

 

Otherwise, loving all the new features. Great job Peter!

[Big_Stingman]

Wooo cool.
