New forum update feedback

Looks cool, let’s add this to the forum!

I actually have a css for all web pages that turns them inverse (with some exception to the images, videos etc) to ease on my eyes. Very foolish idea to make webpages white. It’s like as if a torch lighting to the eye, but why? Never figured this idea out, but apparently many people prefer to burn their eyes! Good!

Edit:
diggin’ it!

Edit2:

Just added this line to make the text white in the pagination toolbar:



.conversation-toolbar-wrapper .conversation-toolbar{
  color: white;
}


Edit3:
Oh and this one too!



.js-markread, .markchannelsread { display: none; }


I can’t preview and post messages from Firefox.

@**Konflict**Updated the CSS. Editor now also dark.

I looked through here so as not to add redundant info but I don’t see any mention of the fact that this update has wiped the unreal tournament sub-forum off the face of the sever. https://forums.unrealengine.com/forumdisplay.php?34-Unreal-Tournament

Yes, but the font is also dark and the pagination toolbar is also have problems (the magnify icon is offset, text is black). Almost there S-ed! :slight_smile:

The dark theme looks better but that just the same thing but in black, all the UI, for me, don’t look good.

What is this update for? I can’t get into my bookmarked threada now…bs

Worst design is the history of 800million dollar company designs, maybe ever.
look at this https://puu.sh/xje7M.png empty space FABULOUS
and of course instead of test it on a local copy of the forum, they push into production and deploy on live.

I guess you haven’t seen unity’s attempt to “upgrade” their forum a year ago or so? Though they quickly realized what they had done and rolled back.
Not sure why anyone would want to use this forum software anyways, xenforo 2 is better in every way.

Just look at the cryengine forum https://forum.cryengine.com
Epic wake up lmao. :eek:

I think the old one looks so much better and since it’s updated i find it very slow and some thread missing/can’t access like this Universal AI Behavior Toolkit - Marketplace - Unreal Engine Forums

I’ve updated the CSS once again.

@DropMotion Epic uses vBulletin. Crytek - phpBB.
Also, Crytek didn’t migrated old posts to new forums. Their theme called Ravaio (could be purchased here).

Yet. I’m very disappointed how thngs are now. I’ve been working with forums since the end of 90s. Deployed, updated, migrated. It’s not so hard to do. Epic probably should hire someone to do that job.
Still, everything could be fixed with necessary amount of work.

@S-ed I was only talking about the UI :p​​​​​​​. I prefer a good looking purchased theme than a crappy custom one.

UPDATE!

  • Signatures are re-enabled for all accounts
  • Marketplace badges are displaying again

Other fixes are still underway, and we are currently performing a reindexing to fix search results, this is likely to take a few hours (NOTE: during reindexing, the site will load slower and there is an increased likelihood of server error messages)

I’ve poked around… where do I update my signature?

Unlikely that its related, but right now the stars for the rating on the Web-Marketplace do not show up for me. Just though you should know ^^

I tried to search this thread for a key phrase but that feature doesn’t seem to be working so chalk that up as my first issue in this reply: Search through a thread results in a forum wide search: http://i.imgur.com/1xnoFf8.jpg

My biggest complaint right now is that the forum logs me out every 1-2 minutes, most times I do not have enough time to type a reply before I am logged out and when I hit post reply it takes me to an error page (http://i.imgur.com/TdAk7tV.jpg) . so this is me telling you about the problem as instructed by the error page

@Ironbelly](unrealscript c++ similarity - C++ Gameplay Programming - Unreal Engine Forums) Thread search field is exactly above the posts. Where page navigation bar located. (i’ve tried, working or me)
