Re: FISO website update - March 2015
It's not massively user friendly, no, but I'd recommend that everyone has a play around in their profile as there's a lot of stuff in there worth adjusting.
I'll add it but I suspect that it's standard form for this forum software.

On the fpl subforum when I press the "Mark topics read" button (to the right of the advanced search button) then nothing happens and all I get is the above error message.DrBunker wrote:Could you clarify what this refers to, I'm trying to reproduce the issue but can't.Stemania wrote:This hasn't made the list but still occurs for me.Stemania wrote: On errors - I tried to mark the topics in the fpl forum as read and it gave the following error message:

weirdly, the "Mark subforums read" button at the top of the same page works fine.

Hmm... I just get a tooltip with a very brief summary of the first post. That's on Chrome on Windows 8. Would be a solution to the issue with hovering over the "go to last post" issue if it worked.jpk wrote:e.g. preview of first and last post just hovering over the topic title

I think that's a user preference thing, go to your profile and there will probably be a suggestion button to add the hour (if not you can change it yourself).

Re: FISO website update - March 2015
A few observations on the mobile UI:
Can you add the last visited and current date and time back to the top of the New Posts screen please.
the top logo banner + advert + menu bar take up a lot of the small screen
breadcrumbs are heavily truncated therefore not very readable/useable
perhaps a quick guide to the new interface would win folks over (what do all the icons mean / where has such-and-such gone) plus highlight the new/improved features?
I like the crispness and colour scheme but it would be interesting to know how Assisted Technology users like the site
could you prioritize adding the last post not the OP datestamp on new posts
keep up the good work!

That's miles better - uses the full screen and as a result I'm not getting the same level of snow-blindnessmike_d99 wrote:I hate to sound negative as clealrly a lot of work has gone into this, but why is everything so squashed up? I'm on a widescreen monitor and half the screen is just white space due to the massive borders on either side.
It looks neater, but at the same time it's far harder to read. Everything is bright white and it's not easy on the eye at all. Same problem as new BBC website has - if you're reading it with tired eyes then it's a bit much.
Avatars look miles better on the left too. Good stuff, cheers

Re: FISO website update - March 2015
My thoughts:
When we first moved over from pipsuite to the last incarnation of FISO I hated it so much that I changed my username to 'don't like it' and moaned and moaned and moaned.
Now when I look at the archived pipsuite stuff I realise I was being a tit.
Do I like the new format now? No.
But I'll get used to it and will learn to love it and I've stopped being a tit.

Re: FISO website update - March 2015
A bit of background on the changes:
The changes come from the forum software moving on to a newer version, phpbb 3.1.x from 3.0.x
They list a number of new features here: https://www.phpbb.com/about/launch/
The older version will eventually become unsupported and represent a security risk.
We'll do what we can to restore functionality but this will not be possible in every case.
