Welcome to the new PriusChat! Post your questions, bugs, suggestions here

I really like this new layout! Great job

 

Mark all read? does it exist anymore?

 

I think this has been posted before, but search is busted. I guess we'll have to depend on Google searches for siteriuschat.com [terms] temporarily.

I also got a scare when I edited my post and tried to save it. I got the notification that a reason's required and that's when I got my scare. I was wondering where the heck all my work went? I had to click Edit again to bring my edits and supply the reason. I suspect that some people might lose their work, if they accidentally navigate away after being puzzled/scared.

There also seems to be no way to turn off smiley detection. My : followed by p got turned into a smiley... :/

 

I can seem to get the search to work

 

Just tried Search and got this.

Ugghhh. Just went through the process of posting images to a thread. Definitely a PITA compared to the old forum layout. And gone is the ability to select multiple files for a single upload. Hopefully you have fixing this on your "to do" list, which I am sure has grown pretty large by now.

C'mon, Danny. Kill the part that mandates putting in a stupid reason for an edit. I know you said you disabled that but it is still being required to edit a post. That, so far, moves to the top of my list of biggest frustrations with the new format.

 

Were those uploaded from images that already existed in an album? Or were they as file attachments. My frustration is with the former (haven't tried the latter).

 

Kinda too early to give any concrete opinion but it looks good. Also, I like the alert on the topic your interested in, nice feature. One problem I had was when I was trying to change my avatar pix., I couldn't & on top of that, it booted me completely out of priuschat & wouldn't let me back in saying something about me being forbidden or something. I hope this was just a glitch as I never had that happen to me before.

 

Thanks.

Dude, I don't envy you a bit right now. I'll try to mind my Ps & Qs while we work through the bugs. (I guess you can quote me on that one then next time I go off the deep end).

 

I hate the new layout. I'm sorry that's not constructive, but it's hard to read, hard to navigate, and now my avatar is absent.

I 100% dislike this. Boo. I may not be on here very much any more as it is not friendly to the eyes :-(

 

I like the top. Cleaner. All the user info is kind of interesting once but message after message. I can click on the user to get the info if I want it but no need to keep posting with each message.

Can the total width of the message area be increased. Lots of blank space to either side. It's actually off center, more blank on right then left in my view on Firefox. That would get more info per page and still leave room for a surround ad or ad columns for the future.

Also the "More Options" menu tabs below. Have "Preview" as one of them vs. having to click "More options" to Preview. Preview is first choice even before Post Reply yet it is hidden two layers down.

 

I second the motion... this is very poor, not user friendly and very cluttered - very poor assembly of information and counter productive to absorbing information without wading through unnecessary, distracting clutter. Just have to call it the way I see it (no sugar coating) Will check back in a few weeks to see if there is any improvement - sorry that I am unable to make lemonade out of these lemons nor offer any constructive suggestions (other than going back to the previous format).

 

Just noticed the difference between this and the regular forum with the Preview. The regular forum is also wider.

PS. Don't agree at all with the negatives above. The new look is much better, livelier. Like going from PC to Mac.

 

When you log in it used to show a list of the posts since your last log in. Is that no longer available or maybe I just can't find it.
