FCP Bob 1,320 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 It's very slow for me. I wonder if that's just because the post rebuilder is still running in the background?That's our assumption, the script will be running for a couple days to go through all the posts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
uncooper 1 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Anyone figure out how to adjust posts per page? Link to post Share on other sites
vbnautilus 48 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 One thing that I don't like about the new IP Board skins is that they no longer have a separator between Pinned and regular topics. I think the board looks much better with a separator and it's easier to skip the pinned threads with your eyes. If the powers that be agree with me about this, the separator can be added back by modifying the forumIndexTemplate template (Forum View -> forumIndexTemplate). right after <foreach loop="topics:$topic_data as $tid => $data"> add <if test="$data['pinned']"> <if test="$this->hasPinned=1"></if><else /> <if test="$this->hasPinned"> <if test="$this->hasPinned=0"></if> <tr class='subhead altbar'> <if test="$this->memberData['is_mod'] == 1"> <th scope='col' colspan='6'> <else /> <th scope='col' colspan='5'> </if> Other topics </th> </tr> </if></if> 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if it has been restarted yet or not to complete the job.There was also a different issue that was causing some of the slowness in the forum. I think Gov said that some data tables were freezing or something like that but I'm not a tech. Link to post Share on other sites

The script froze before finishing yesterday. I don't know if it has been restarted yet or not to complete the job.When we did this upgrade it froze several times and had to be restarted. I found that reducing the number of posts per cycle made it less likely to crash. Link to post Share on other sites

GWCGWC 83 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 I wish I were better with change.That reminds me of something kind of embarrassing. When I was around 4, I learned a dime was five cents and a nickle was ten cents. I still have to do this mental reverse work around everytime I think of nickles and dimes. Could this be my root aversion to change?Now that I think about it, all kinds of shit is hardwired into my brain incorrectly. Where comas go in sentences, orange and purple are switched, algebraic order of operations for exponents, radius and diameter are backwards, the 's' is where the 'p' should be in the alphabet song and I screw up peoples names on a daily basis.I mean, I like the look and features of the old board.

May take some getting used to, but definitely better. The new font, though, I could do without. I'm assuming the look is not gov's priority given all he is dealing with but maybe down the line we'll get some skin options. Link to post Share on other sites

iZuma 764 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 is there any way to get to the end of a long thread from the mobile version? or at least bookmark the full version on a mobile device? I bookmarked it but every time I reopen it goes back to mobile, and I can't figure out a way to get to the end of the sick thread without just clicking next ten thousand times.

Clicking thread titles always takes you to first unread on the mobile version. It's definitely a deficiency of the mobile skin. Link to post Share on other sites

DJ Vu 176 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I'd like to be able to turn off avatars and images and signat- wait, where are all the signatures? Huh, now I don't even remember if I ever had one.Also, it's too wide. If it's not maximized you have to scroll back and forth instead of it condensing it for you.But I think it looks pretty and all that. Link to post Share on other sites

If it's not maximized you have to scroll back and forth instead of it condensing it for you.But I think it looks pretty and all that.What do you mean by it's too wide? The screen width should fit fine for you, unless you are running a very low resolution monitor.Signatures seem to have all stayed, you must not have had one.The mobile skin is good imo because of it's speed and that its quite easy to read. However, yes VB is correct that unless you mark all as read it'll take you to the last unread post when you click on a title. Other IPB owners have complained to Invision regarding this, hopefully a change is coming. Link to post Share on other sites

The screen width should fit fine for you, unless you are running a very low resolution monitor.Signatures seem to have all stayed, you must not have had one.If by low resolution you mean "cheap and old," that's certainly very possible.I don't see anybody's signature. Which, you know, is fine since I don't want to see them anyway.Minor quibbles though. Good job on the [insert technical jargon]. Link to post Share on other sites
