FISO website update - March 2015

Post by admin »

Please note that fiso will be offline on this Sunday evening (from around 7pm UK time) for an update.

Updated 13/05/2015

Feedback/requests/gripes:

--Forum colour (could themes be offered that individuals could select from?)
--Orange post titles (quite useful for an easy reference to each post for linking to elsewhere but could be toned down)
--Too much white space on non-mobile devices
--More smilies ;)
--Links no longer open in new pages (e.g. FPL team links) - DONE - not quite, external (e.g. FPL) links do but internal forum links (e.g. ucp.php?i=ucp_profile&mode=reg_details) do not
--Formatting on FISO games pages
--''emoji'' characters showing as text rather than images
--Old urls no longer work which used seo modification - to upload seo extension when available
--Users could choose which forums to display in their Active topics thanks to a fiso modification - see if an extension can be introduced to bring this back
--Link back missing on mobile devices, e.g. download/file.php?id=17073
--Make the headings & options under Profile more plain English, e.g. password change screen
--Can't add new injuries to http://www.fiso.co.uk/injurytable.php?action=add_status as selecting 'club' does not bring up any players

Done:

--Quick reply option on all pages - DONE but if notice missing from any forums then message admin
--Avatar/information on the right - DONE
--Viewing latest posts they seem to be in the correct order but the list quotes the first post time not the last (like what it used to)
--Tapatalk plugin to be restored? "Participated" now empty. (Used to be "My Latest Posts" which is now "Your posts") - DONE
--Tab titles no longer reflective of content (this is especially problematic when working on a few tabs at once and editing/copying from them or when restoring deleted tabs) - DONE
--Expand option on CtC via a mobile to show more columns - DONE
--Alternative display for FPL links (like the button on the old forum). Need some way of concatenating them as currently they sit messily over two lines - DONE
--Resizing of page numbers for mobile views - DONE
--Link to latest posts missing from bottom of threads - DONE
--New post envelope no longer shows latest post contents - DONE (hovering over the thread title shows the first and last posts)
--Coded lists are scrolling and taking up too much horizontal space - DONE
--"Mark topics read" next to advanced search on subforum lists results in an Ajax error - DONE

Includes a responsive design so easier to view on smartphone/tablet

As Vid says, about 3 hours.

Please report any bugs here (or on the Report Bugs Here topic) and we'll pick them up tomorrow.

Not a bug as such, but "the team" is you, yourself and Rob now, no easy links to find the mods?

Latest post seems to date the topics by when they were first created.

First glance - it looks much neater, cleaner and tidier so a big thumbs up.

FISO Goals and FISO 7 may need a little tweaking though, predictions will be awkward spread over four lines per game and FISO 7 tables off the page.

Good point - I'll tweak the Goals and 7 layout a bit over the next few days.

usergroups? can't sack any under performing mods if I can't manage the group!!!

a member of a private forum has said he can't access it, wanted to check group membership and can't find it to check.

It should be easier to read, post, etc. on mobile so Tapatalk may not be necessary. Let us know if there is specific functionality that it adds though.

Have to say I'm finding this upgrade really irritating (which having been asked to test it in the past I admit is partly my own fault!)

It seems to have broken Tapatalk, responsive designs don't work on my works installation of IE4 (or something old anyway) and to use it in Chrome/Android i have to really hold my tablet in landscape orientation which I don't like.

Apart from that it's fine....

I doubt I'll be here next season if it's still this eyebleed-inducing monstrosity.

What are the benefits of this upgrade?

Surely in a weeks time, you'll be used to the layout, and the old one will seem clunky and frustrating.
