DanielG Posted 12, July 2017 Report Share Posted 12, July 2017 1 hour ago, vaughan said: First of all, well done on the forum upgrade. My comments: I'm not a fan of the dark background. My main interface to the old forums (and most forums tbh) is the "recent posts" search. On the new forums this is broken, and when clicking on the new topics are displayed, the click goes to the very first topic in the thread. I'd expect to go the first unread post in the thread (or as a cheat, the last post in the thread). There are two ways of viewing new posts. You can either go to 'Unread Content' - http://www.ozrenaultsport.com/index.php?/discover/unread/ or through the activity stream, which will also show things such as who liked what post etc - http://www.ozrenaultsport.com/index.php?/discover/ 4 minutes ago, ttimbo said: Re the dark background.

eight Posted 12, July 2017 Report Share Posted 12, July 2017 Out of the two theme options the darker does not hurt my eyes as the white one. If only the font could be slightly larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using /discover/unread/ makes me trawl through ALL the unread posts across the site, AAARRRGHHH. Also, the difference between "read" and "unread" posts is a very subtle one for these tired eyes.

This was my original username, it shows posts from recently however I haven't had the alias tagged on posts for a long time. http://www.ozrenaultsport.com/index.php?/profile/14919-mrasia/ I believe Dish was aware of the feature of allowing usernames to be changed as he assisted in changing my ID.

tension Posted 24, July 2017 Report Share Posted 24, July 2017 One thing that really irks me with the new set up is that threads with an unread post usually show up bold (same as the old setup) but with the current layout it's extremely difficult to tell if a thread title is bold or not.
