Title: We are live!
Post by: Admin on Tuesday 26-Jun-2018, 14:20*
Slightly earlier than I intended, we are now using this message board/forum for Harlequins support. Please give feedback on what you do/don't like, want to do or want to see.

Well done.
This works fine. Much cleaner and faster than SN.

About time too! :) No, seriously, happy with the site, so onward and upwards.

Are there any cleaner themes?
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: Quinten Poulsen on Tuesday 26-Jun-2018, 16:38*
Plus an option to click on a button that takes you to the first unread post on a thread would be great.

Brief answer - there's an option that looks like the mobile phone theme, but that's it unless you're a true CSS guru. If so there's some 2,500 lines of code for you to wade through. Let me know if you fancy it.

Well done, DOK. At first glance it seems much better.

Looks great :) Already starting to prefer this forum.

Great work DOK. Are you any good as a defence coach?
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: RodneyRegis on Wednesday 27-Jun-2018, 17:26*
It's great. Just needs a border between different threads and it'll be perfect  :)
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: JammyGit on Wednesday 27-Jun-2018, 19:38*
Thanks for this, DOK. Could use a few more themes but I appreciate the work!
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: DOK on Wednesday 27-Jun-2018, 22:41*
Yes, it seems themes for users to select are basically two. I have been looking to see if I can create more but I think that's down to the overall administrator, and presumably he's had other things on his mind.

As you see, have tried to improve the basic theme. It at least differentiates between messages easier, which was getting a little hard on my aged eyes. :)

Please can we have more adverts. Just annoying adverts, everywhere. Preferably irrelevant adverts.

Im liking it, seems faster then the old page, and easier to post.

Great work
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: Quinten Poulsen on Thursday 28-Jun-2018, 18:29*
Yeah, now I'm getting used to the layout I can appreciate how good it is. Nice one DOK - a huge improvement from SN.

So much better and the ability just to see topics / posting since last visit is really helpful

Although don't think I'd seen you for some time on the old CAW come to think of it

Oh so this is where CAW has been hiding, thought it had gone quiet. Why the change?

Re: We are live! - - hhhmmm , yeah but for how long.

Sorry. I think every who likes this new platform is totally deluded.

I'm not against change for the better but I'm afraid this new platform is definitely not 'for the better'. While it's functional (just) it is in fact is bloody awful to look at and not very intuitive. Feel like we've gone back in time 25 years.
I realise I'm an ungrateful scoundrel who couldn't do better and that I should be grateful people are managing this free of charge for the good of the quins fans BUT hey, it's what I think.

I viewed and posted on the previous CAW platform for many years so i write this with heavy heart and really hope that the forum doesn't fold.

Glad you managed to navigate this "unintuitive" interface sufficiently well to read a thread, and then post a reply... since that's all that is really involved in a forum/message board, you're pretty much a pro now!
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: RodneyRegis on Thursday 05-Jul-2018, 12:31*
Bit weird. Sure it looks a bit old fashioned, but there are no ads rendering it totally illegible, it has a working search function and you can skip to the first unread post, and as such it is far more functional than the old board.

What's unintuitive about it?
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: harlequins on Friday 06-Jul-2018, 06:16*
I like it. Its quick, no pop up annoying ads, easy to navigate and overall easy to use.
Title: Re: We are live!
Post by: deadlyfrom5yardsout on Friday 06-Jul-2018, 10:01*
So that's 100 in favour and one against. Hmmmm

Actually, you know what I like best about this site? It doesn't jump about on my screen (Safari on a MacBook). That old site, every time it loaded it jumped about. You thought it was settled and then everything sprang 100 pixels up or down. Super irritating. I wondered if that was a ruse to provoke unintended clicks on the ads, because it certainly had that effect with me. I was forever misclicking something, often an ad.

So pleased with the new site.
